I will not promise recaps of everyday of Internet Week, but yesterday was pretty good. I got to Metropolitan Pavilion yesterday to see Yahoo Provoke. It was cool to listen to Ze Frank’s presentation. He has a lot of projects,and it made me feel better about juggling so many things at once. All of his stuff seems to revolve around PLAY.

Afterwards, there was a panel that included Bre Pettis, Seth Goldstein, Matthew Szymczyk and Nick Parish. Their panel, “Pixels That Provote Emotion” talked about humans, QR codes and robots. Bre said something I really like-“Intellectual property is dead”. He also encourages us all to SHARE online.

Later, I hung out at the opening night reception. I talked to Michelle Shildkret, Dennis Crowley, Kelly Samardak, Jose Mejia and David Dundas.
