Remembering Bill Gates Silicon Valley Sleuth style
In the short history of this blog (it's been up since November 2004), Bill Gates is probably the most mentioned individual, and certainly the most photographed one. For your enjoyment, below you find a selection of photos that have been taken of Gates at numerous events that I had the privilege of attending.
WinHEC 2006 last May in Seattle: it could have been a great Windows Vista celebration but didn't work out that way.
January 2006, Gates delivers the opening keynote at the Consumer Electronics Show.
RSA Conference 2006 in San Jose… Bill Gates sings the audience to sleep with a newsless opening keynote.
November 2005: Gates and Ray Ozzie travel down to Silicon Valley to unveil the company's "Live Software" strategy.
Time will tell if the event will turn out to be Microsoft's desperate
attempt to cling on to a life line, or a brilliant move to move
Microsoft into the internet era.
September 2005, Gates kicks off the Professional Developer Conference in Los Angeles.
September 2005, Palm unveils that it will be launching a Windows powered version of its Treo smart phone.
Bill opening CES Las Vegas in January 2005; the keynote is a
record low with three failing demo's and host Conan O'Brien ruthlessly pooring salt in the open wound.
After one of the failed demos, O'Brien quipped: "Who runs this company?"
