"The better we get at getting better, the faster we will get better." It is about time. 
The person who coined that sentence, Doug Engelbart, is actually feeling better and is looking forward with new enthusiasm to the continuation of the Collective IQ Future Salon from last year. Check out the video on the Internet Archive. Doug did too :-)
One thing came out of my November Future Salon announcement that Firefox founder Blake Ross and Doug are connected now. Doug has a couple of ideas for some Firefox improvements and Blake is interested to hear his thoughts. May be they will have talked already until Friday the 20th of January. Wouldn't that be amazing if they would announce something at the Future Salon?
