 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).
