I really need to just start another type of post - called “How can we spend the money that cost us nothing” category.  As Wall St. continues to lay their bets on Google, I wonder what IAC and Barry Diller are going to do?
I also wonder when Microsoft will come out swinging - assuming that [...]

In case you were wondering what Reid Hoffman looks like?
As many of you know, I am a proponent of faces in user interfaces.
I believe faces area core component to any social - anything - software.
So I have scolded and pleaded with Reid Hoffman on many occasion, both publicly and privately - to include faces in [...]

Dam!  I missed my chance to disrupt the Disruptors Roundtable.  I guess they didn’t want me disrupting too much.  They must be afraid.  I know that Arrington and OM are afraid.  That’s why they won’t have dinner with me - or see me.  But be assured - I will keep disrupting.  Guarenteed.  I didn’t spend [...]

OK - the conversation continues.  I just got this from Greg Reinacker (who I consider one of the GodHeads of aggregators):

Marc -

The NewsGator Online platform supports Media RSS, and exposes the content through its API.  The NewsGator Online GUI doesn’t yet surface this, but it’s on the list.

FeedDemon is an example of one of our [...]

I don’t really watch Video Blog posts - but I love theHill88.  I’d vote for her - as Best Vloggerette - but she’s not nominated.
Oh well.
And the rumor is that blip.tv is having  a pre-party at the House of Shields.

If I were a VC I’d be investing strictly in Health oriented companies.
The amount of automation, modernization and catch-up that the health and medical professions require is staggering.
If you want to get your kid into a sports league, you have to go to their Doctor’s office and get a copy of their health record - [...]

Dare Obesanjo is adding audio to RSS Bandit.
Some folks (Michael Meiser and Peter) have been saying that mefeedia does media.  No wonder Mary Hodder likes it so much.
Michael also points out that YouTube has feeds - but they’re just really hard to find.  I agree.
No word from Greg Reinacker yet - but Nick Bradbury did [...]

I’m glad to see Noah Glass get a little mention once in a while.  Twitter was Noah’s idea.  But then again - Odeo was more or less a rehash of something Noah did earler - as well.  Noah used to work for me and was even a roomate for some time - with his wife [...]

Now group based aggregation has a name - ‘neighborhood’. 
To me - VOX is a DLA for sure (digital lifestyle aggregator.) 
Really the first of a new breed, which I consider PeopleAgrgegator to be part of - as well.  We’re just not done yet.  Vox rocks - as it connects to outside services, will have a full range [...]

Kevin Marks has quickly pointed out that there IS an on-going effort to define a micrformat for media - so that folks can ‘describe’ a media item in a page.
This is a key point in the evolution of these standards.to
So now I guess the issue is how to marry and keep in sync - the [...]
