From Genuine VC, David Beisel discusses how important demos are to prospective clients, investors, and partners.  I am surprised tht this article points out, as I thought demo-ing your core functionality was part of process to help your audience visualize the results. I have been putting together demos since the 90’s, and nothing else works better, especially when you are discussing difficult concepts, interactions, and architecture. Sure, you may have to cook up some eye candy and not-baked functionality, but if those are the features that your audience wants, there certainly are ways to plan to get that functionality in to the product or implementation later.

all you need to know about Web 3.0

Instead of trying to sound smart and discussing the difference between Web 2.0 and 3.0,  I will suggest reading this link.  Make sure you read the Wikipedia 3.0: The End of Google? article. I like it so much I may print it and put in on the bathroom stall walls at work :)It does beg the question from anyone that has ever worked on a standards committee if this over-arching ontolgy work will ever be completed. That also the big sticking point as I read Ambient findability. Also, lets not forget aabout the importance of the ad revenue and the mainstream popularity of Google. When I see the Wikipedia screen on Bobby Goren’s computer, I will change my mind
