On February 20, I'm teaching a new one-day Internet
applications course.
The class is free (with a free lunch even!) and
runs from 10:00 am to 4:30 pm.
Here's what I'm trying to teach people:
1) ability to distinguish between good and
bad Internet service ideas --
predicting stickiness
2) ability to select the appropriate tools and
people to realize your service goals
3) how to build a common Internet service that is
accessible from
Web browsers,
mobile phones
(WAP and iMode),
Internet appliances, and
other Web services
4) a bit about voice interfaces to information systems,
including an introduction to the VoiceXML standard
5) what is interesting from a service operator's and
end-user's perspective about systems and standards
such as
XML,
SOAP,
Microsoft .NET,
J2EE
6) the six required elements for a successful public
online community
7) four optional elements for online community
derived from sociology research
The course is targeted at a general audience,
ranging from MBA students who want to learn the shape
of the tech world to former CEOs of dotbombed tech
startups still trying to figure out how they managed
to spend $87 million on a single Perl script.
It is also good for engineers looking for a high-level
perspective on what they're building.
Bottom line:
you can forward this invite to your friends in industry.

to just blast in a registration
(free but since ArsDigita is ordering food they need a
headcount).
