... my name is John Patrick and Attitude LLC is the name of my company. My activities include consulting, writing, speaking, and board service. I am fortunate to have quite a few affiliations and I get to work with people from whom I am constantly learning. Prior to setting up Attitude LLC, I was vice president of Internet Technology at IBM Corporation until I "e-tired" at the end of 2001.

In addition to writing in the patrickWeb blog, I occasionally write essays and columns for publishers and consulting firms. Most recent was "The Bubble: Reconsidering The Boom And The Bust" which was published by Booz Allen Hamilton. Net Attitude, is where I wrote about a view of the future of the Internet and the attitudinal factors needed to capitalize on the changes ahead. There is also a column in Network World Magazine, called The Ultimate Internet, where I tried to summarize the book in 850 words.

As of today, the patrickWeb blog contains 605 postings. I hope you enjoy them!
