My favorite quotes
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950), Man and Superman (1903) "Maxims for Revolutionists"
You see things; and you say, 'Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say, "Why not?"
George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950), "Back to Methuselah" (1921), part 1, act 1
Don't let fear convince you that you're too weak to have courage. Fear is the opportunity for courage, not the proof of cowardice.
McCain, John (2004, September). In Search of Courage: Finding the Courage Within You. FastCompany, 51-56.
In the search for character and commitment, we must rid ourselves of our inherited, even cherished biases and prejudices. Character, ability and intelligence are not concentrated in one sex over the other, nor in persons with certain accents or in certain races or in persons holding degrees from some universities over others. When we indulge ourselves in such irrational prejudices, we damage ourselves most of all and ultimately assure ourselves of failure in competition with those more open and less biased.
J. Irwin Miller, Chairman of the Board (1951-1977), Cummins Inc. From 1983 letter about diversity at the company.

HICSS 38 - Persistent Conversation Track - Sit, Hollan, & Griswold
My final blogged paper is:
- Sit, Ryan Y., Hollan, James D., & Griswold, William G. (Jan., 2005). Digital Photos as Conversational Anchors. In Thirty-eighth Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS-38), Los Alamitos: IEEE Press.
Sorry there was no abstract on the paper. The full paper will be available on the ACM archive at a future date. The presentation was given by
My notes follow:
- The author handed out a single sheet of paper to the audience. On it are two photos, one at the op of the page and one near the middle. Below each photo is chat discourse. On the back is a clip of online discourse where a photo is used as an avatar to anchor each exchange.
- Experimental tool was used to create these exchanges. It is called JussPress.
- Digital photo sharing includes capturing, transferring, editing, organizing, and publishing.
- JussPress decreases the work to just capturing the picture and then the system performs the other steps automatically.
- The system was demo-ed for the audience. The site is available at JussPress.
- Design Rational for the conversation. Photos are shared between the photographer and the viewer. This sharing engenders comments from the viewers.
- Commenting component of the site was hard to write, hard to read, and hard to check. [These are the same issues that commentors face within blog structures as well.]
- The comment system was then demo-ed for the audience.
- The use of JussPress improves coherency in turn adjacency, overlap, and topic decay.
