“I've worked with Joseph over the years and got to know him well. As Chief Platform Architect at Plaxo it goes without saying that Joseph is brilliant in his understanding of technology, but that's just part of the story of Joseph's talents. I think his more influential role is that of evangelist for open web platforms and as an opinion leader in the big picture of empowering people with the rights and resources to control their information on the Internet. Joseph is an engaging public speaker with big ideas. I had the good fortune of working with him, creating the information graphics for his presentations he gives at conferences around the world. It's always a lot of fun bouncing ideas back and forth with him. Joseph mixes in practical considerations, thoughts on aesthetics, and a lot of playful banter and linguistic twists of wit. He also gave me the freedom to bring my talents to the table. We'd get into it and go back and forth about things we believed in, and always with respect for the talents each us brought to the table. We both share a love of words. It's a joy to talk, and think, and work with Joseph.”
