Scoble Party







Scoble Party

Scoble Party 10/28/2003 11:07 PM

Note to self: next time Scoble throws a party, bring business cards.

~

I was interested by the account of the BTS 2004 session at Edge on Jon Box's blog.  While everyone else is sitting around belyaching that there is no value left in IT, this guy is rocking on with EAI and BI, two of the three biggest areas of IT spending right now (consolidation is the third).  Things like .NET Framework tend to get most of the hype from people dealing with MSFT technologies, but as far as I'm concerned Biztalk and Analysis Services are the most strategically central products we ship.

Scoble is turning 40 on Jan. 18th, and is having a party on the 22nd.

Too bad - cause I'll be in Seattle on the 23rd, getting ready to attend Steve Boback's Blog Business Summitt. So maybe we can do a second B-Day party?

Meanwhile I'll be 48 on Jan. 13th.

Scoble on Persuasion


Scoble on Persuasion 04/19/2004 07:06 PM

I have to agree with Tim Bray, Scoble's post on how to be persuasive in the information age is the best he has written so far.  Not surprisingly, it points directly at the power of blogging as a tool of persuason.

I wonder if the word persuation is derived from pursue?  If so, then Scoble is saying that being persuasive doesn't mean giving a chase, but to be a person whose words are worthy of pursuit by the listener.

Scoble Hunt 12/22/2004 01:33 AM

Scoble is getting a lot of heat for his Hi Bill post.  I don't see why they think he is crazy or accuse him of insulting the Windows Media team.  The only part that rubbed me the wrong way was the firing part.  The rest is just a post written by an employee who cares enough about the company he works for to hang his balls out the window.

Who cares if his suggestions don't make sense?  That's his blog.  Should bloggers be restricted to writing posts that make sense to everyone?  Well, up your foobar if you think so.

As to what I think about his post, I think his suggestions are good.  Good, not in the sense of success or brilliance, but in the sense that such change will be good for Microsoft even if the project fails.  Like people, companies don't learn or evolve while doing the same things the same ways.

Scoble kicks RSS ass?


Scoble kicks RSS ass? 09/12/2004 05:17 AM

Yesterday I wrote about how Seattle is kicking my ass, now it's time to debunk Scoble's gross condemnation of RSS.

On Wednesay he posted that MSDN was limiting its RSS feed, dropping full text, because they were serving terabytes through RSS, and weren't happy with the economics.

Either Scoble didn't explain or I wasn't paying attention, because they were doing something very strange< /a>: aggregating all their blogs into one feed. They have thousands of blogs. In any hour the chances that one or more blogs changed is near 100 percent. And the feed is huge, every time you load it, you're downloading a lot of blog posts you don't care about.

The solution is simple, and it follows the grain of the Web, follows the intent of micro-publishing, and it's the way every other blogging community works -- simply offer a feed for every blog. That takes care of everything. It's just wrong to turn a community of weblogs into one giant Usenet group or Yahoo mail list.

So why does Scoble blame RSS? He's got the journalist's impulse for sensationalism and he can't say Microsoft is broken or they'd fire him. ";->"

I love this guy - Robert Scoble....

Yesterday I did the unfathomable: I turned down Steven Levy from
Newsweek.


First, some background. Seven years ago when I was doing marketing for a
small Silicon Valley company (Winnov) I would have given quite a few of my teeth
to meet with someone like Levy.


Back then I thought it was unfair that the press paid so much attention to
big companies. It's always Microsoft this. Apple that. Sun the other thing.


Do I deserve this press attention now? No. I'm quite honored, but there are
so many companies doing so many interesting things out there that I'd like to
point out.


Heck, since I know Steven's reading here, how about we point them out here?
Is your company doing something interesting? Think that Newsweek should write
about it? Leave a note in the comment field here.


For instance, Greg Reinacker's href="http://www.newsgator.com">NewsGator is worthy of coverage. The company
Russell Beattie works for, href="http://www.wavemarket.com/">WaveMarket, is one I'm watching. Mobile
services are gonna be hot.


I could go on for years. Feedster. Technorati. Pubsub. Six Apart. Weblogs
inc. Groove. Konfabulator (coming soon to Windows). Napster. Active Words.


You do note many of these companies aren't currently using Microsoft
technologies. So, why do I point to them? For one, they are doing interesting
work that's expanding the market. That's real important. The way we all win is
to see new scenarios, new products, new opportunities, built by new
companies.


So, let's hear it. Which companies do you think deserve the press'
attention?


Oh, and Steven: sorry that we weren't able to match our schedules up this
time.

Nicely Said: Scoble on Flash


Nicely Said: Scoble on Flash 11/01/2002 06:40 AM
Nicely Said: Scoble on Flash and using it for blogging. After checking out the wedding stuff, I see that Robert has good comments on Flash. Here's a selection: What's so glorious about plain text? Easy: Google can index it. Photos, videos, and such are nice, but wake me up when Google can look inside, OK? What else? Easy. Bandwidth. I'm often on bad bandwidth. Video and audio just plain suck when you're in some hotel room somewhere trying to partake of all the Web goodness. I definitely have to agree with him on the advantages of plain text. Still Macromedia does publish an API for indexing Flash which at least one site level search engine, Atomz, supports. A much bigger issue for me is that Flash is both proprietary and binary. I've been too burned by vendors when binary data corrupts. HTML doesn't corrupt and that just plain rocks. I've been in situations where the only way to update my blog was to use VI. So have others like Iluminent. If we were purely flash based this wouldn't be possible. [ Go ]

This is why it's important that we have Robert Scoble on the inside at Microsoft.

Gillmor is on the radio, er net, now..

Steve Gillmor, of eWeek, has been busy. He's doing "the Gillmor gang" (audio panel discussion, part of Doug Kaye's awesome IT Conversations).

And he has an interview, published in eWeek, with Google's Evan Williams, where Evan made the controversal statement that Atom is RSS (that kicked off a few blogosphere comments, I'll let you do the Feedster searches). I like how Steve hints to Bill Gates, on his blog, that we should pay attention to Technorati. Hmmm, Steve, actually the guy you need to get to pay attention to Technorati is Christopher Payne. He's the guy who runs MSN Search.

Microsoft's messiah of blogging Robert Scoble and friend Shel Israel are doing a book together about corporate blogging. They're going to break some rules along they way as well, by developing the book in public and on their blogs. When they finish they'll sell the book on eBay to the top bidding publisher. Very interesting. Sounds like they are going to focus on public blogs rather than the private k-log style blogs that John Robb suggests. For now, Scoble calls it the red couch project.

I am amazed daily on how far behind America is in cell phone technology. My sister-in-law in Japan showed me a couple of years ago how she could find information about products just by taking a picture of it although I am not sure if she scanned a barcode or not. It Seems Neomedia Technologies has finally figured out that by enabling camera phone users to scan barcodes and linking that to a net based database with product information and price comparisons could make for a popular product.

I am all for this kind of empowerment but it just pisses me off that America the land of the free is so damn far behind when it comes to personal communications. [Scobleiz er]

Note to Self: Don't Read Scoble Late at Night or Microsoft Bloggers Now Added and a Rant

A wee bit tired this morning.  I made a quick round of my normal stops in the blogosphere last night and I happened by the Scobleiz er.  Now I've met Robert in the real world and I always get something out of reading his stuff -- but it usually doesn't cost me sleep.  You see what happened is Robert pointed me off to Microsof t Watch and a list of Mi crosoft bloggers with weblogs.  So I thought "Wouldn't it be nice if they were all indexed".  And there I was making sure they got stuffed into the system.  Here's what I found:

  • Probably more than 50% of them were already in our database.  Go figure.  I guess that either a) people are adding themselves or b) the RSS auto discovery routines I wrote work better than I initially thought ;-)
  • Microsoft bloggers use a plethora of different tools.  I do think, however, that the dominant one is Radio.  Blogger, Movable Type and other systems are also represented
  • Not all Microsoft bloggers have RSS feeds
  • Topics span work and personal
  • Devhawk.net did a really smart thing with Feedster -- he added it to has blog's UI essentially as a "virtual table of contents".  Good idea.  I think I need to offer some viewing improvements if people are going to do this.
  • Someone needs to teach the "gotdotnet" folks what RSS is.  Also I couldn't believe their HTML source when I was poking around. So get ready for a vent.

    <RANT CLASS=NASTY BILE=HIGH FRUSTATION=SEVERE>Go look here and look at the __VIEWSTATE input element.  To me that's just plain lame.  Use a session, send a cookie and use your horsepower for this, not my bandwidth with every page view.  And if you really want to barf then click around a bit and go here.  They seem to be encoding the entire viewing history in a really nasty way and shipping it back to you every single time.  It just gets bigger.  After navigating thru like 3 pages I had 6,554 bytes sent down the wire that did nothing for me.  Thanks for nothing.</RANT>

I guess its not all that bad actually but it just seems damn silly.  I hope that's not a dot net feature but I'm afraid that it is.  Sigh.
