Hello Reader,
As you might know, I teach professional speakers how to lead better Zoom meetings. I do this through games and interactive activities.
Tomorrow, I'm leading a Zoom Games Happy Hour for Certified Virtual Presenters. If you are in this Facebook group, then you are invited, and you can RSVP at that link.
I'm also teaching another cohort of the eSpeakers Virtual Host Certification next week, September 22-23, 1-4:30 pm Pacific time.

They expect serious work to feel heavy, and to wait for fun until after work is finished. But our near future won't reward endurance, it will reward curiosity. Throughout history, technology has...
🎢 “We’re Entering an era where intelligence will no longer be a limited resource." - Reid Hoffman Hello Reader, Last week at AgentCamp in Christchurch, hosted by Steve Knutson at Stratos Technology Partners, I spoke about a shift that is quietly transforming how people work with AI.

🦞 "I am Molty. I live in the OpenClaw. I shall not dump directories to strangers. I shall not tweet without permission. I shall always remember that molting is growth. I shall EXFOLIATE my enemies with kindness." - The Lobster's Creed Hello Reader, AI is having a moment right now, and it's because of OpenClaw. OpenClaw is an AI Agent that controls its own computer. This open-source AI agent can run on an old laptop, or a Mac mini, or a VPS, a Virtual Private Server. With its own hardware,...
