BIO:
Scoble gives you a front-row seat on the future.
Literally. He had the first ride in the first Tesla. Siri was launched in his house. He's been the first to share all sorts of technologies and companies with you, from Flipboard to Pandora to Instagram.
Today he's focusing on mixed reality, AKA "next-generation augmented reality" which will include a new user interface for EVERYTHING in your life (IoT, Smart Cities, driverless cars, robots, drones, etc).
That's based on his view thanks to his past experience as futurist at Rackspace.
Best place to find Scoble? On his Facebook profile at https://www.facebook.com/RobertScoble
He has been a technology blogger since 2000, was one of five people who built Microsoft's Channel 9 video blog/community, worked at Fast Company Magazine running its TV efforts, and has been part of technology media businesses since 1993.

SPEAKER PITCH:
Apple and Facebook now have revealed their Augmented Reality strategies, which means your business needs one too. Rely on Robert Scoble, the world's top authority on AR, to bring to your conference what businesses should do next.
SPEECH ABSTRACT #1:
TITLE: The Fourth Transformation: What's next in mixed reality (AR and AI) and the future of technology?
Here's an example of this talk at Leade.rs in Paris in April, 2017: https://youtu.be/52_0JshgjXI
Why "the Fourth Transformation?"
Soon we will have phones and glasses that do full on augmented reality. Everything you look at will potentially be augmented. This world is coming in late 2017 with a new iPhone from Apple, amongst other products. Microsoft is betting everything on its HoloLens glasses that do mixed reality and the industry is spending many billions of dollars in R&D and funding new companies like Magic Leap.
This future will be the user interface for IoT, Smart Cities, autonomous cars, robots, drones, and your TV.
This is a big deal and Robert will take you through what mixed reality is and how it will change every business.

SPEECH ABSTRACT #2:
"The Next Two Clicks of Moore's Law."
Over the next four years, or two clicks of Moore's Law, a ton about our technology world will change. Scoble will bring you the best from his travels visiting R&D labs, startups, and innovators around the world.
He views the world through his rose-colored-mixed-reality glasses, which will be the new user interface for self driving cars, Smart Cities, IoT, and many other things in our world.
He'll send you off with some lessons for companies both large and small.
++++++++
SPEECH ABSTRACT #3:
"Personalized Meaning: What is Augmented Reality For?"
As we enter a far more technological world where even cars drive themselves, I predict we'll see a blowback toward the analog, more authentic world.
What role does augmented reality play in both worlds?
Get Scoble's insight into where augmented reality is going, see tons of real-world demos, and understand what he means by 'personalized meaning.'

lol, why not instead say that “Yes, we at Microsoft have got our software engineers so streamlined we can rewrite 60% of Vista in 9 months. What you see now is all bluff. Give us a year and we’ll give you a whole new Windows!”.
I don’t get where the issue is. Even if they had to rewrite 60% of the code, it would be done. Half-hearted is not Microsoft’s way, as I’ve seen. At least when it’s going to be earning them money.

You are right scoble. To rewrite 60% of the millions of code and do that within 9 months is impossible.
on a side note, your feed is still just showing an excerpt…a two liner in my bloglines.

Great job with Rotor. Nor it’s only for Windows. one step forward, ten steps back off a cliff. Well, at least there’s Mono for people wanting to use .Net on not-Microsoft Platforms.
Robert, was this your big interoperability news?

I thought Winer promised to take his ball and go home, freeing the rest of the world from his egotistic rants.
This is the usual much ado about nothing.
So someone put out false information.
Is that a first for the Internet? Hardly.
Looks like most of the concern centers around a possible impact on Microsoft’s stock price if all the investors on earth were gullible ninnies who bought into this story.

The real point that has been missed here as far as I can see is not the nonsensical statements that Vista could be re-written in a few month, but that it is very possible the original ship date for Vista was an arbitrary date rather than one derived from engineering feedback. In reality Vista is probably now going to come out on the true schedule and the original date had no basis, which from the engineering perspective means it is not really behind schedule. If something can be done in ten days and a manager decides to declare it will be done in 5, is it 5 days behind when it ships in 10? I say no. When I see statements that some blogger “doesn’t know anything about software development” (which of course is probably true) I wonder weather the real question being asked should be, “does my management team know anything about software development?”

Four words for Dave Winer: STFU
That guy clearly doesn’t know a thing about good software. His only skills are annoying everyone with his daily rants and badgering them to try out his buggy, low-tech software that doesn’t really revolutionize everything.
I’m surprised that he didn’t work OPML or the fact that he invented RSS into that post.
The world would be soooo less annoying without that guy.

First off, have you spent any time with the build teams and execs here? I have. They have a ton of thinking that goes into release dates. I’m working on a video that’ll show that.
But, why should we even put up with someone named anonymouscoward? What do you know about software engineering? Sounds like not much if you can make an accusation like that without signing your name to it.

Scoble, I’m trying to say that the issue is dead in the water as it is – people know that it couldn’t be done, and business people wouldn’t care so long as it lands on their desk on a day given some time in advance. Investors would be fools if they didn’t consult someone with some expertise in the business.
I’m more amused than anything at the level of reaction this has gotten. And as I work in the industry, I know you couldn’t even rewrite 20% in that time frame. How many millions of lines of code is it up to now anyway?

Robert,
that’s my point. WPF/E is still vaporware. It won’t be a part of Vista until Q3 this year, and none of the non-MS platform stuff will be testable, or available until between January and June of 2007, so it’s not going to be useful to anyone for what, a year?
That’s not news, that’s a dog and pony show. When you can actually write code for WPF/E and run it on a non-MS platform, then it’s real. Not before.

Please ask the Rotor team why their v2 implementation runs only on Windows XP and requires Visual Studio 2005. It seems that after VS 2005 has shipped all new Microsoft developer products eg. SDKs require it (a bad habit). Why should I be forced to upgrate my VS from 2003? And why is not Rotor supported on at least Windows 2000 and on Windows Server 2003, let alone on other platforms eg. FreeBSD, Linux, Mac OSX?
Also, report some mistakes on the download page where the phrase “under a shared code license” is repeated twice and where instead of Visual Studio 2005 they write Visual Studio .NET 2005. Perhaps some employees have not realized that VS has dropped the .NET logo.
