We’re thrilled to welcome Mark Bernstein as an invited speaker for Blog Hui 2006. We first heard Mark at the Blogtalk Downunder conference in Sydney, May 2005. But that’s getting a little ahead…
In 1990, Mark Bernstein stood before the European Conference on Hypertext and uttered the famous first words, “Where are the hypertexts?” The rest has been electronic publishing history.
Mark Bernstein is founder and Chief Scientist of Eastgate Systems. He came to hypertext after a brief career in chemical research. Since phasing into computer science, he has created HyperGate, a hypertext authoring system for the Macintosh that predated Apple’s HyperCard, Fontina, Macintosh font management software, and Link Apprentice, a research tool received with considerable interest by the hypertext community. He was primary developer of Storyspace for Windows and of the Eastgate Web Squirrel.
Mark’s blog is an often controversial fusion of what movies he’s seen and books he’s been reading, what he’s been cooking and eating (the claufotis sounded superb), plus of course, Mark’s day-to-day business experiences with the development of Tinderbox. Mark publishes TEKKA, a quarterly journal of new media and software aesthetics.
Getting back to the Blogtalk Downunder conference, Mark gave an invited lecture on “Saving The Blogosphere”. If you are involved with software development, digital publishing, blogging, or just want to meet a genuinely enquiring mind, don’t miss the opportunity to hear Mark at Blog Hui 2006.
[...] Three international speakers have confirmed they will be coming. These are Mark Bernstein, who we were fortunate to meet last year in Sydney at the Blogtalk Downunder Conference, Trevor Romain and Torill Mortensen. [...]
