Mix: Web Technology Conference
Mix 2008 ended yesterday. It’s a web development conference run by Microsoft. Check out Ray Ozzie’s keynote.
I found Ray’s 2007 keynote to be more interesting. The 2008 keynote focused more on Microsoft products, whereas I felt the 2007 keynote was about broader web trends and provided some great insights into the future of the web.
For those of you that don’t know him, Ray Ozzie is the new Chief Software Architect at Microsoft who is taking over the role from Bill Gates.
Also, there was a candid interview with Steve Ballmer. The interviewer is Guy Kawasaki, who is the author of some of my favorite books for startups and is well known for his evangelism at Apple in the ’80s.
