So young, we are so few, very sad.
He pioneered making smalltalk known to the world using screencasts.
There is a lesson for us all, right there.
Thank you James, wherever you are, you’ll be missed and be sure your example lives on us

For those who haven't heard on Facebook, James Robertson passed away
suddenly on Thursday April 14, 2014. James was a power house of
information for Smalltalk and worked furiously through the years to
promote it through his blog and podcasts. James was an employee of
ParcPlace through the ParcPlace/Digitalk merger and through the move to
Cincom. When he left CIncom in 2010, he became an independent
contractor. He was always an early adopter of technology. He jumped into
the blog scene when it wasn't yet a scene and started recording podcasts
when podcasts were still new. Over the years, he recorded thousands of
podcasts, screencasts, videos of conference talks and interviews making
them accessible to everyone by podcast channels, youtube and through his
blog.

I'm waiting to hear details about a memorial service to be held later
this week.
For all of us who were touched by his life, we say farewell to a good
friend.
