I don’t know how I missed this (probably cause I was crazy busy) post by Ebrahim Ezzy on Richard MacManus’ Read/Write blog.
The post is called Social networking: Time for a silver bullet - and it brings up a few interesting points.

But first a few minor corrections and comments on Ebrahim’s post:
- Indeed PeopleAggregator can do all […]

CNet is getting seriously into being into foodies.
Yet another buyout meme - and poll - is this a case of fiction becoming reality?  Isn’t the magic numbr for Digg $60M?  And tell me why tehse sheep will still keep pouring their content into YouTibe and Digg - after they’re turned into corporate puppets?
Placeblogger is about to […]

So Lucas Gonze posted on the relationship between RSS and XSPF:
The way that I envision the relationship between XSPF and feeds is that an enclosure would point to an XSPF document rather than contain an embedded XSPF document or other extension format.
For example, RSS enclosures can only have a single media item. This prevents you […]

This is a great lesson for all our clients - “if you want to endear the hearts and minds of geeks, give them SWAG.  And be creative about it.”
So AOL created a series of shirts - which they themselves can be mashed up in various sequences.  The end effect is a nice (as Tara Hunt […]

Just when I start to think nobody is reading this, I get a letter like this - in this case from Paul Boutin:

I was lounging - ok, I was lunching in the back corner of the Starbucks at 4th and Brannan when a nice, normal-looking man approached and apologetically asked if I was, um a […]

Shouldn’t they be supporting media feeds by now?
Shouldn’t their products and services sense a media enclosure and render the audio or video properly or do something special with the photos or imagery?
Following up to yesterday’s post on “where’s the meta-data” - RSS created an ecosystem where both content creators and aggregator vendors worked hand in hand […]

I was talking to Mike Hudack (of blip.tv) yesterday about video feeds and he mentioned that they had all his data about their video - which he wanted to ‘put into their video feeds’.
I suggested that he go onto the Media RSS list and talk about extending the spec to support that data - but […]

Kevin Tillman has some powerful words - about the war.
DVD Jon does it again - he’s cracked the iPod.
They’re here - the OpenID2 specs - are finally showing up!  Congrats to David Recordan, Dick Hardt, JanRain, Kaliya, Brad Fitzpatrick and anybody else who made this possible!
TV manufacturing returns to the US

Goodbye Skilling

 This is one guy who deserves what he got.
 I just wish there were more examples like this made.
 Maybe we’d get a little more honest, efficient CEO thinking and decision making.

Those who know David Colburn would know David as a kick ass, get it done, classic a-type lawyer guy - who ran AOL’s biz dev unit at the height of the bubble.  He also helped fight the fight with Microsoft - during that famous browser battle case.
Seems that the Feds didn’t like a few of […]
