Work(ing Title)

Who better to open the O’Reilly Where 2.0 conference than Mike Liebhold from the Institute For The Future. He also is advising Palatial, which is doing interesting things with Google Maps overlays.

Among the pile of information Mike dispensed at maximum speed was the call for a tricorder; a handheld device that aggregates all of the information about the place the device exists. Hopefully one of the tier one companies (listening Windows Mobile?) will get out in front of this, as having the device will help push the demand for the publicly-available data.
