Back in Action

I've been extremely busy of late, planning a business, learning about more effective management, organizing myself, and attending a conference on emerging software technologies. I've spent a lot of time thinking about what exactly I wanted to communicate on this site, and how I should go about it. I'm now ready to get back into action.

Very shortly, this blog will be integrated with the rest of the collaborative-systems website. The result will be one site that simultaneously fills two roles: The first role will be a blog, continually updated with the latest ideas, links, and comments on the emerging world of collaborative software. The second role is an information resource where all the blog posts will be organized into a coherent structure, browsable from the home page. From there you will be able to learn all about collaborative systems, or learn in detail whatever aspect you choose to investigate.

As for content, you will soon find

• abundant examples of current systems
• explorations of what's coming
• explanations of how these systems can be built.

In the near future, expect to see talk of

• collaborative chess playing,
  
• haptic (force-feedback) systems
• graphic interfaces
• artificial intelligence
• the future of wireless communication
• and more.

Stay tuned!
