feb 16, although it is both a shame as well as a bit ironic, nowhere is the expression 'perception is reality' any truer than it is in the computer industry. From the days when Big Blue could sink a company with a few whispers of fictitious new products from its sales force to today's age when million dollar IT budgets are whiplashed around based on who's on the cover of Business Week, public perception has significantly driven the market's allocation of resources.
We'd all like to live in a world where the best code and the best models thrive and evolve based on their fundamental merit. In reality we are forced to fight for our ideas in the court of public opinion where emotion and timing are our fickle judge and jury. Collaborative free software and the java model are both, in my opinion, worthy causes to fight for and for that reason I wholeheartedly offer any support or couseling I may be able to give to this project as it moves forward.
Although I'm currently half of a web-based financial information / investor relations start-up in Hong Kong, I have a number of years of high-tech PR experience including a significant amount of work for javaSoft both in Silicon Valley as well as Tokyo over the last 2.5 years.
