About: I'm co-organizing Web2Open, the unconference section of the Expo. You can read more about it on the wiki and if you're planning on participating you should make sure to pick the Web2Open track when you edit your CrowdVine profile answers.
I'm also the CEO/Founder of CrowdVine, former contributor to Wesabe, Odeo, and O'Reilly, and the author of Regular Expression Pocket Reference. In my free time I enjoy urban hiking, junk tv (hell date, american idol, terminator), and one-or-three-star movies (but not two-or-four star). I also built the IHeartQuotes robot which you can follow on Twitter. Try sending it quotes with @iheartquotes.

Thanks Tony - I added the Web2Open Takeout Dinner to the Party List: http://en.xihalife.com/b/ju...
Hi Tony,
Thanks for your note. I'm still working on finalizing my plans, but will let you know when things are more certain.
Hi Tony - nice to meet you - my background is a NASA photo of the surface of Mars - it's so surreal! Hope to meet you (too). You can always visit me on the Rock.
- Ranger Craig

"Mobile Web Reality Check"
What is the real state of the state, when will we see ubiquitous Geo-location? Fat or thin? Android? iPhone SDK?
So many questions, who can speak to it all? Would be a great interactive discussion.
Glad you did this. Love the platform.
