I was given an opportunity to share my Zen and the Art of the Technology Brainstorm thoughts with the members of the Columbus Chapter of BDPA for their May Information and Exchange Rally. The meeting was held at OCLC (very cool place - (former?) home of Eric Schmidt and the Dublin Core Metadata Initiatve for all of you Semantic Web people out there). It was well attended - hor d'ouerves, great conversation, insight from the OCLC CEO Jay Jordan. I shared the podium with Wayne Hicks, the Executive Director of BETF, who shared the history and purpose of BDPA with us, and John Henderson, COO of CSI International, who is about to unleash some cool, new technology into the market soon.
Thanks to Reggie Hillery and Alva Anderson for the invitation and a great event! If you are black and an IT Professional, you really need to take a look at this organization!
