It's funny rereading this post now, a little over a year later. I think I was right on the substance of the thing, but of course in the meantime, Google did get involved in hardware with the G1 (they were making appliance servers at the time) but I was right in that, AFAIC, the G1 kind of sucks (compared to the iPhone). Anyway, I still think that the socialization of presence is where it's at -- and clearly the current activity streams work factors directly into that!

I wonder what Jryi is up to these days. I saw him at the Open Stack meeting the other night, hopefully he's working on something cool and non-proprietary.
