Peer News Wants Hawaii’s News
Hawaii-based startup Peer News, founded by eBay’s Pierre Omidyar, announced some big news today.
We are creating a Honolulu-based local news service that will produce original, in-depth reporting and analysis of local issues in Hawaii.
One of the first steps for this endeavor is finding an editor. So if you have the skills and passion, an opportunity awaits!
Welcoming Farmers Insurance Hawaii in January
Starting January 2010, AIG Hawaii will change its name to Farmers Insurance Hawaii. That’s the exciting change hinted at in their commercial.

Chris Pirillo Rethinks Twitter for Conversations
I guess I wasn’t the only one rethinking things after attending [re]think Hawaii. At the event, Chris Pirillo and Coach Deb had a conversation about conversing on Twitter. Coach Deb felt Twitter was a great tool for conversations while Chris disagreed.

[re]think for the Mind, TEDx for the Soul
I don’t know how better to say it than:
[re]think Hawaii is for the mind, TEDxHonolulu is for the soul
Right after [re]think Hawaii came TEDxHonolulu, the 50th state’s first entry into TEDx, the independently organized TED event. NEENZ was at it again, organizing inspirational speakers for our TEDx. I don’t know to capture the essence of the event and the powerful messages of:
The best way to experience TEDxHonolulu is to watch the (forthcoming) videos. Only then will you truly appreciate Intel’s drive for environmental sustainability, Jill’s passion to go green, Henk’s pursuit of high tech in Hawaii, and Kaiser’s cutting analysis of Sino-American relationships online and off. My words won’t do TEDxHonolulu justice.
Until the videos are available, view the pictures from TEDxHonolulu.
