Intel IDF: ConnectBeam - social bookmarking in a box

robert.p.duffy@intel.com — Wed, 19 Sep 2007 19:47:00 GMT

Puneet Gupta, CEO of ConnectBeam discusses his social bookmarking network appliance.

This is a pretty cool thing. Robert Scoble from Podtech has been discussing this idea as something called Starfish, where a persons contributions to blogs, wiki entries, Facebook, Twitter, etc, can be aggregated in a way that puts the content and search in context to the author.

ConnectBeam has created something similar in a turnkey appliance, allowing the users to bookmark, tag and attribute the source author as a tag, so you have a LinkedIn like connection between the content and the contributor.

From an enterprise perspective, this seems pretty handy and a simple way to add social media tools to your business. Because it uses bookmarkng and tagging, it's not necessary to integrate search across your systems, as long asyou get bookmarking adoption. Also you get to see how employees are contributing to content.

Check out ConnectBeam.

Intel's Fall IDF 2007 Kicks Off!

robert.p.duffy@intel.com — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 18:17:00 GMT

Intel's fall IDF 2007 keynote doors open
!keynote.jpg!

...and in come the masses ready to nuggets of what is to come this week in San Francisco.

As the masses assemble laptops abound in the room, I boot up and type in my hard drive password to hear a very pleasant voice over the load speaker letting us know that there will be forward thinking statement and we results of what we will hear and see will vary. Wow a disclaimer sandwiched in between Red Hot Chili Peppers and the Hard & Soft YouTube video. Now I feel ready to soak in the keynote.

Start the montage of IDF keynotes in history, showcasing the evolution of technology over the years and the continued road map aligned with Moore's Law.

Pat kicks us off let us know what to expect, with sessions from industry luminaries like Gordon Moore, and social media pervasive in the event... ah a slide of Open Port... coo. Thanks Jeff Demain.

Opening video shows with an extreme sports video with a cliff jump while the jumper uses a mobile PC. Paul comes to the stage, and states is theme is extreme to mainstream where he explains that 40 years of innovation have helped create a mainstream market for technology. Idea being that with Moore’s Law the innovations keep coming and technology and a digital life have become pervasive with our mainstream lives.

Three key points were made about Intel's position in the market palce
- Unparallel Silicon Processor Technology
- Intel Architecture
- Market Creation

This is where Paul get's geeky on us. He explains gate leakage, where processor loses energy as the processors get small. Intel has been able to get gate leakage down to a factor of 10. Paul explains Intel is making great headway on next generation. World’s first 32nm, on its way in 2 years.

Starting this year Penryn is the heart of next generation platforms.
Penryn quad core with 410 million transitor die, launches November 12
Intel in production on 45nm today. 700 plus designs from the ecosystem.

Next Platforms will be in for consumers where we will see extreme mobility, entertainment, problem solving and inclusion.

Just as laptops have become mainstream to allow mobility in computing, WiMax is the next generation wireless technology that will allow for ubiquitous connectivity. Paul announced Lenovo, Acer, Panasonic & Toshiba will include WiMax in products next year. New seemless global network on the horizon

Project WiMax use that will provide a new seemless global network
- 150 Million in 2008
- 750 Million in 201
- 1.3 billion in 2012

Now some sillyness. "Live feed" from Zion Utah desert showing use of WiMax from MID's Laptops, from watching slingbox videos to ordering pizza. Shows full PC capabilites with full broadband will be accessable anywhere.

Continuing on the Comsumer market, Paul explains we are in a new market with a Consumer internet that use Social Networks, user generated content, 3D graphics, and games

Paul explains that games are now mainstream, and Intel is leading the way with new processors to provide the processing power games require. Charles Wirth from XtremeSystems shows how he can push Intel systems. With a cooling system (- 160F) on an unmodified Quad Core system he demonstrated he could break 3 New World's Records in 2 minutes... well 2 minutes and 8 seconds- established 3 world records

On to graphics cards. Paul explains that Intel is the number one supplier of integrated graphics but we've been behind the curve in our technology for graphics.
Paul announced 65nm graphics in early 08. 2009 will introduce 45nm with graphics integrated into the CPU. 2010 10x performance with 32nm

Jeff Yates from Havok, comes to the stage (in his first official Intel appearance) explains how the Havok physics engines is being developed to work across multiple cores and he appears to be hungry for Larrabee. Pandemic Studios shows of gaming on quad core... lot's of things blowing up real good with quad-core.

To sum up, Intel has innovated, Intel promises to continue to innovate, and that we can all expect to see more Intel products in our mainstream lives.

Veodia streamed all panel discussions during Office2.0 in SF last week. Cool service, you can sign up for a free trial and start video blogging.

Here's a session of the panel discussion Intel joined with WebEx, SAP, and Leverage Software at Office 2.0 to discuss Online Communities and our strategy with Open Port. Coolest part, during my introduction I asked how many people were blogging... half the room raised hands (submit a name to start the video)

Taking it to the next level at IDF! On September 18th at 3pm we use Ustream to embed a live stream with chat within IT@Intel

IDF - Are You Pro Ready? or have you heard of Office 2.0 Conference?

josh.hilliker@intel.com — Tue, 04 Sep 2007 21:35:00 GMT

Hi All, the time is coming for our IDF (Intel Developers Forum) in San Francisco. One of the courses that Kenny Chan & myself will be teaching is as follows: Pro Platform Interoperability and Integration – Are You Pro Ready? The course is focused on what End Users, ISV's & developers can do to make Interoperability & Integration a snap.

I will also be joining up with Bob Duffy & Ken Kaplan to help work the technology for the IT Panel on Social Media. I think this session is going to be great forum for discussing what Intel is doing on social media both internally & externally. I have high expectations for this session.

If you anybody from the Open Port / Intel(r) vPro(tm) Expert Center is going to be at IDF please let me know. We were kicking around having an unconference during the venue to get together with fellow bloggers & talk anything from social media to client manageability technology.

Also, Bob Duffy & I will be hitting the road this week to SF to join up w/ the Office 2.0 conference. We're both pretty jazzed about the experience & also hearing from the presenters & break out sessions. If you haven't checked it out.. http://www.o2con.com/index.jspa

If you happen to be at this venue.. look us up.. we'll be on the panel on Friday. I will also be bringing my HD Camera to record the journey.. Stay tuned for video..

Cheers..
