It’s my birthday today, I am now in my 30th year. 29 years old! Hopefully this won’t mean lots of pontificating over the next 12 months about what I have achieved, and what I am going to do with myself in the future.
Anyway, I had some lovely gifts, including a top selection of dead tree web 2.0 reading material:

| The Future of the Internet Johnathan Zittrain |
Everything is Miscellaneous David Weinberger |
Groundswell Charlene Li & Josh Bernoff |
Plenty to get my teeth into there.
I also got lots of lovely birthday well-wishes via Twitter and Facebook – so thanks to everyone for that. Best of all though was this from Paul Caplan via Flickr:

Happy beltaed birthday, Dave! Would love to know your thoughts on everything is Miscellaneous. I found it inspiring but didn’t see much of a buzz about it – at least from UK bloggers I read.
Thanks for dropping by Simon! Those folk who I know have read EiM are either inspired, like you, or completely scathing. Am just about to start it – will let you know!
I sometimes wonder whether we should all start a book group for Web 2.0 reading – there is plenty of books to get through!
A book groups sounds like an interesting idea Dave.
Were you thinking an in person gathering – or organised via web 2.0 itself?
Surely it has *got* to be virtual?!
Belated happy birthday. I must have been away or busy at the time. By the way, does the title make an http://www.unhappybirthday.com/
