Ruckus is now - free

So what happens after you spend $20M+, build a 1.5M song database, cut hundreds of deals with the labels for legal downloading - creating a special subscription deal for college students at $3 a month?
Well not much - if your venture backed and you need 10’s of millions of college students to make a profit […]

Ted responded to me!

Monday, February 13th, 2006

It’s great when a major exec of a major company can take the time out to reply to your tauntings.

Ted even gives a reason why he’s not using AOL Journals.

Time to take links and vamp on them

I really like that Legal’s at Kendall Square. Halley does too. It was there - that we sat while our Wm. Morris agent went and met with Hayden softwrae and bought back the rights to Videoworks.   The year was 1985. The rest is history. That was AFTER Guy Kawasaki went behind our back and gave them $100k just […]

Robert Scoble says Kim Cameron is ruining Microsoft’s reputation

Monday, February 13th, 2006

Heh hee hee.
I left this comment:
I looked - but I couldn’t find any Microsoft stickers on Cory’s Powerbook.
But at least Cory is seeing the evil side of Apple.
Maybe after they try to put HIM out of business 5 or 6 times - he’ll stop using Macs and just accept capitalism as the world order. […]

…from the West down to the East.
Bob Dylan said it best “I Shall be Released” - me, of all the stress that comes with playing the chess game we call “our industry”.  I’m getting tired of playing visionary.  It’s time to ship some products, change some lives, go retire - again.
Thomas Vanderwal calls it the […]

Marqui lands $7.5M

Monday, February 13th, 2006

It’s great to hear that my friend’s at Marqui have caked themselves up to the tune of $7.5M.
It seems that the one thing the company is still known for is the marketing campaign where we paid paid bloggers to blog.  The companie’s hits in Google went sky rocket as we gamefully manipulated Jason Calcanis and Stowe […]

If Songbird is so coolio, where is the XSPF support?

Sunday, February 12th, 2006

Lucas Gonze and friends worked hard to develop an open standard for playlists - XSPF.
You’d think that a much heralded open source music player would at least support XSPF.
Huh?

Susan Mernit points us to her old boss - Ted Leonsis’s blog.
Ted showed it to me when I was there last. He’s really into it.
He joins the ranks of other high ranked sports team owners - like Mark Cuban - who blog.
Congrats Ted!
Now let’s see if he receiprocates?

Ramblings on a Sunday morning

Sunday, February 12th, 2006

My wife continues to blog up a storm - I’m betting this could get pretty incestuos real soon now.  Her vlogging is starting to inspire me.  You see there’s a reason why I have been holding off from media blogging of any sort.
The photos, the sounds and the video - of my life - are […]
