so much to talk about, so little time.

real quick...

guess who had a private meeting with Tadpole Chief Scientist, Bruce Borden*?

that's right. me. and Heather (smart, beautiful), who runs the Inner Circle program. you need to subscribe to this one. it's worth it. i went to a breakfast with john gage because i'm an inner circle member. membership has its privileges.

back to Bruce*... Tadpole .... Chief Scientist... he gave us a demo... talked to us about what they're working on that's coming soon... and that's a little further out... completely blow-your-mind innovation happening over here, people. we're going to do a big thing on this... maybe next week we'll do a big thing around how sun equips me to get my job done... total mobile workforce... and we can talk about futures and talk about what tadpole is doing. wireless sun ray... and other stuff.. (i gotta go back and check the tape to make sure i don't talk about the stuff that's still super secret....)

just imagine.

i guess what these guys at tadpole did.

so we're going to do all that next week. maybe.

see, i'm super busy right now. just got a new job that i'm totally charged about and i'm super busy right now.

so maybe not next week. let's play it by ear.

also hot on the agenda today: techno celeb sighting in the cafeteria. VP and Sun Fellow Graham Hamilton* who invented JavaBeans many other things.  saw him in the cafeteria. having lunch. (it's the year of the tiger, people. download today.) i tell you, it's really incredible when you think about how many a-list techno celebs work for this company. every time i come out here i run into them left and right.   hey, i got an idea.. how about i go around and get my picture taken with all these guys and gals...

maybe not. that would actually require some effort on my part. and frankly i've just got too much to do right now...

anyway... i gotta go... so much to do (all fun stuff... love the new job! super excited. i'll tell you about it later)

p.s. got back to the hotel room last night after dinner with Cheryl "newly-appointed-director" Keener* and Jeff "been-a-director-for-quite-a-while" Solof*.... i'm sun ray girl, right. no laptop. but no sun ray in the hotel room either. how am i gonna check email? how am i going to look at my calendar to find out what time my first meeting is tomorrow? turn on the tv; pick up the wireless keyboard; type in a url; username; password...i'm accessing my sun email account from the TV in my hotel room*. total mobile workforce, people. i keep telling you and you don't believe me. i am living this life. when you start living this life there's no way you'll ever go back.

*i have pictures to prove all this stuff... and when i get some time, i'll post them.
