Dec. 4th ‘07 is today and I’m blogging away

Thank god I’m not featured in this video.  We consider ourselves the opposite of bubble - no VC, bootstrapped, happy customers, real revenues - backup the vision with real deployed standards and trends.

Speaking of happy customers - here’s what one of our leading developers has done - using PeopleAggregator. It’s called Portokalada.com - it’s for Greek-Americans.  It’s done by Peter Quintas - who (of course) we now want to send all these other gigs to who are ringing our phone off the hook!  2007 was a great year for BBM and 2008 looks like it’ll be “off the hook”.  I can’t wait for the Bell Canada and Sac Kings sites to finally go live!

Verizon lets the borg take over their cyber psyche - and eats the red Android pill.

I like Alex Iskold’s take on contextual advertising. A least I know what Alex looks like now.   I wonder if MySpace’s hyper targeted ads really work?

I love the idea of the XBox updating itself.  With social features - even!  We used to dream of that sort of platform - back when I was working for Bally-Midway.  Then came along reprogrammable game cabinets.  My how the world has evolved.

I guess Brandee is turning into sourmash - as Facebook’s PR is getting fumbled more than an amateur sideshow.

Verisign selling completely worthless Kontiki platform - to who?  What would they pay for it?
