Straw Poll: Stratton Sclavos: (a) cluelessly megalomaniacal or (b) tragically ignorant?
At a recent Red Herring conference, Verisign CEO Stratton Sclavos said:
Ross Mayfield is aghast.
Wendy Seltzer is scared.
How do you feel about Sclavos' remark?
(a) It is cluelessly megalomaniacal.
(b) It is tragically ignorant.
And I suppose I should add:
(c) It makes me feel warm and fuzzy and safe to think that some day the grown-ups might finally make the Internet a serious communications system instead of the toy that it is today.
UPDATE: Steve Crandall proposes to add:
(d) Mr. Sclavos is gunning for a position at a major telecom (AT&T has been losing execs lately).
Record your vote on a Diebold voting machine and send an image of the paper receipt it produces to isen-at-isen-dot-com.
"We have to move the complexity back into the center of the network and remove it from the edge."Mitch Ratcliffe is dumbfounded.
