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.'

Not only I am breathing, but I’m also doing the 80-20 yoga breathe (http://www.bikramyoga.com/FAQs/80-20Breathing.htm if you are curious!), remembering the very few yoga classes I took. ๐
Since I usually take the first our/half-our of the day in catching up and classifing email and feeds, is actually a nice thing to also use that non-intensive timeslice to “set up” my mind and my body for the rest of the day.
It’s not a question of “consciousness”: actually this kind of breath helps you to get a correct/good posture.

It takes more than breath control to stay on top of your world. It takes a sense of “Perspective”, a sense of the “whole” even when you plunge into one world of detail after the another.
In short, it takes meditation.Breath control is one of the ways that help you attain it.
Look at what the meditative guys are doing – look what a stint of soul searching in India did to Steve Jobs. Or what the burning man did to the Google folks.

Robert – interesting piece today. I am going to make a conscious effort to pay attention to my breathing patterns today. To that end, I wrote a comment on Jeremiah’s blog yesterday that upon re-reading, I must have have “commenting apnea” because it was barely coherent. Happy Friday!

Here’s what I think, for whatever it’s worth:
People need breaks. More so now than ever. Get off the grid for a week or two every year. Completely. No email, no phones, no Internet. Take your family and just disappear for seven days. Go to Mexico, somepleace in the Caribbean, anywhere remote. Make an announcement that you are taking time off with your family, and just go under the radar. You will be pleasantly surprised at the results. Don’t blog about it when you get back. We all need some space in our lives.
Scoble, one of the things I like about you is you seem to be upfront about your life, but don’t you miss even a modicum of privacy? It’s not like the hotties are mauling you are the airport for an autograph, but you simply cannot travel anywhere around people and enjoy yourself with no intervention. Don’t you miss just being the gray man? I know I would never want to be recognized in public, but I guess that’s what makes menus.

Amazing! I wonder what other social and health related effects can you find by monitorig even shortest moments you spend with computers. I notice for example growing pains in my elbows – the right from typing and using touchpad and the left from talking on my cell (yep – while driving). We used to have the “tennis player elbow” – is it time for touch-pad elbow now? ๐
And if you really want to improve your health while computing, check out the walkstation by steelcase (I’m not sure its in sale yet) – though it may be going a bit too far ๐

Great points. It turns out that I fall into the category of not breathing properly while reading emails…pretty funny to observe. I find that sitting up straight can help tremendously too. I also change keyboardmonitor positions often to change up the scene at my desk often.

It depends on what type of email I am reading/typing.
If it is a problem that directly relates to me or my work, then I am probably not breathing the best. That is directly related to an increased sense of awareness and adrenaline.
If it is ho hum email, I will be breathing easy.
Regarding breaks, weekends are a good time to flush out my system and forget about technology and focus on my family, play basketball with the kids and de-stress.

Scoble,
Point taken. I think meeting cool people is great, but for me it has to be in the right setting. That’s one of the reasons I love truly remote holiday destinations. When I travel, I love to go off the beaten path. I find that by doing this, I get to meet real people doing real things.
Last time I went to the EU, I went waaaaaaaaay off the beaten path on purpose. I planned a very remote vacation for two weeks. I met some very real people — dairy workers, tobacco farmers, men and women who ekked out a living with no Internet, no phones. Some didn’t even have TVs. I stayed at mom and pop hotels and generally had a great time. The food was unpretentious, delicious, and cheap. The young women were all-natural and very appealing with no makeup and their sun dresses. Ah, the Mediterranean. Land of taking it slow and low…

Just started taking yoga in the new year and I’ve been breathing much more deeply than I have in the past. Until now I have not thought about my breathing patterns while typing. I did notice I was breathing while typing this comment. I type pretty quickly so maybe this won’t be a huge problem for me. ๐

Excellent post. You got me to realize again how often I hold my breath when writing — when blogging and emailing. Of course now on a Sunday night after relaxing all day, my breathing is deep. I know that once I go back to work tomorrow morning, it’ll be easy to lose the good breathing style/habit/rhythm I fall into over the weekend.
For the past couple months I’ve been doing Chinese exercises (qigong and tai chi) almost every day. These exercises have improved my breathing quite a bit — so they seem to benefit people in the way yoga benefits some of our commenters here.
Thanks again for the excellent post.

I didn’t pay much attention until I started doing martial arts a couple years ago. People who don’t think about it sometimes find that they hold their breath for an entire exercise, which gives you headaches or makes you light-headed. We also practice breathing on its own.
Some people think it’s silly when they start, but one of sensei’s aphorisms is “you move how you breathe”, so I’m sold.
(Which art I practice intentionally omitted. Please let’s not start a martial arts pissing contest on Scoble’s blog. ๐

Deep breathing is important, but fewer breaths (as can be accomplished with deeper breathing) are actually supposed to make you live longer according to many yogis. So, maybe twittering and blogging are increasing our lives? ๐

I love this concept… and I think in modern times we could even expand on it.
For example, addition to email apnea, blog apnea and (of all things) Twitter apnea, we could include some of the following:
T.V. apnea – do you breath well when watching drama or suspense on T.V.?
Auto apnea – how about when you’re stuck in traffic?
Deadline apnea – facing a looming deadline creates tension and often we forget to breath well during those times…
eBay apnea – bidding on something you really want? Be sure to breathe!
As you can see, the possibilities are practically endless!
Thanks for the great post!
