Jonathan Schwartz is not on the scheudle for today.
He did not directly address how sun has moved to a 2.0 company. He did say that all sun software will be open source. He also indicated that Sun is moving to a very transactional model. That they are focused on the long tail. One of the keys he discussed is distribution. One of their competitive advantages is their wide Java base. He mentioned the savings of self-service.
Another very interesting panel was with leaders form Amazon, Yahoo, Skype, and comcast. One of the themes here is that you have to own unique data to differentiate your business. The topic of the panel was what unique data do each of the companies have that will allow them to scale. It is all in the data. Amazon’s strength is all the user comments on products over the years. Yahoo had the 400 million users.
