My wholistic, integrated, aggregated and highly customizable digital lifestyle aggregation meme is coming into focus.

Everywhere I look people are talking about elements which are part of this meme. Today's element is video blogging.

Video has taken a back-burner position (on the Internet) for over 10 years now as dial-up mentality has reigned surpreme. But with broadband surpassing the 50% mark - we now can use video to explain ourselves, what we REALLY mean and all sort of complex things, especially things like new kinds of IPOs.

The video blogging meme is taking off - despite the fact that there are no tools to structure these posts or attach appropriate meta data to these streams.

Photo blogging as a gesture (and form of media communciation) is closely related to video blogging, but they're different beasts and should be treated accordingly - especially from a UI POV.

Greg Elin's Fotonotes idea (also exemplified in Flickr) is a great way fo turning a photo into a story - but we're the TV generation - and I "WANT MY MTV!" (or Weinberger TV or Google TV)

Audio blogging is even harder. Until we can automatically transcribe conversation spewing, we're stuck chopping up these long rambles into digestable chunks.

It's this notion of using multimedia to communicate "off the top of your head" that's lighting the fire and video is the very best at capturing that essence. Obviously David Weinberger is a great writer, but when even HE starts video blogging, well then I think it's time for us to take notice of what's going on. Sure photos capture the "holey moment" - but I got a whole bunch of moments I wanna capture - and video is the only way to do that. Time is the missing element from photos, and video takes communicating to a new level that we're all accustomed to.

Video is a way to communicate honesty. It's real hard to lie and bullshit in front of a camera. Lots of folks do that and that's called Big Media journalism. Whether it be Fox of CNN - they're both liars - or at least the information they're reading off their cue cards are lies.

When Bill O'Reilly starts spewing hatered and ignorance - you can tell he actually believes it - so he's not lying at that point - it's just that his mind is warped.

But when Sergey and Larry use video to launch their IPO, they're communicating a kind of grass roots - "we don't need need the lawyers and the PR flacks to tell our story" - kind of attitude.

Sure they come off straight - but they're billionaires now - they're supposed to act like adults. They trot out the CFO to talk numbers and they explain their technology - in a clean, concise manner.

That's the foudnation of the terms of their IPO - "trust us" - we know what we're doing.

THAT's what has to change on Wall St. I would never ever ever do an IPO again, or buy stocks, or participate in that corrupt system until the notion of some uptight, fund manager's paranoia about something that has nothing to do with me, our technology or our company - goes away.

Technology and Wall St. don't really mix well - when assumptions, conjecture, estimates and gutt level instincts reign supreme. When you start to map all the requirements of a successful IPO and on-going market presence onto technology stocks - what you get are people cooking the books, making decisions that hurt the technology and all sorts of other bullshit - that ultimately hurts everyone.

But the way Google is doing it - keeps as much of the bullshit out of the mix.

And using video to communicate how they're doing it - is RIGHT ON!

So whether it's an archive of an unsuccessful conference (which serves as undisputable evidence), mobile video , some whacky comedian or s ome sort of video guided tour - I think we can safely say that we'll ALL be using video to communicate in the future.

About three years ago, the team behind the open source window manager Enlightenment (E) began rewriting the software from the ground up. Although E was being maintained, receiving the minor updates necessary to keep it from obsolescence, the team has been conscienciously working on the new development release (DR) 17. Despite the popularity of the current version (DR16), the prolonged development cycle necessary for the new one has led anxious fans to largely forget about it. But lead developer Carsten Haitzler (Rasterman) assures us that the project is not stagnant, just moving slower than other, better-known window manager development projects.

Honey, Did You Remember to Call the DVD Recorder?

"The machine has a 400GB hard disk drive, is capable of zapping video elsewhere in a home, and is designed to let consumers program recording remotely over the Internet--including via cell phones. The new product, dubbed the DMR-E500H, and related devices with smaller hard drives, are slated to be available in Japan beginning Sept. 21....

Panasonic said the DMR-E500H offers high-speed dubbing from its hard disk drive onto DVD-RAM and DVD-R discs. The machine can record a 1-hour program onto a DVD-R disc in just 56 seconds, according to Panasonic.

The product comes with an Ethernet port and a broadband receiver, Panasonic said. With the Ethernet connection, MPEG4 video and JPEG photos can be viewed on a PC in another room, the company said...." [CNET News.com]

I soooo want one of these. Here's the relevant paragraph for us, though:

"Bob O'Donnell, analyst at research firm IDC, said making programming choices may not be appealing on the small monochrome cell phone screens common in the United States. But things are different in Japan, he said. 'It's totally possible with the 2-inch, flip-phone cell-phone color screens,' he said. 'In Japan, everybody has those.' "

It's the money paragraph because it's a lot easier to do things on Japanese handheld devices than on those we use here in the U.S. So features like reading ebooks, listening to music, and watching video are more viable services there. Of course, that type of quality and functionality will eventually hit our shores, and these types of devices and services will have an impact on library services and user expectations.

ENT is starting to happen!

(ENT2.0 mod RSS1.0) = 0.

Time for ENT 2.0?. It's very interesting to read Danny's toughts about ENT and RSS 1.0. Maybe it's time for a new release of the ENT specs, RSS 1.0 compatible. Oh... and what about Atom?
[Paolo Valdemarin: Paolo's Weblog]

I've certainly thought about things which, with the benefit of hindsight, I would have done differently.  I was never comfortable with having the topic name as the text content of the <topic> element and I've no idea why I did it, there are other bugbears in there too.

I'd also like to give more thought as to how ENT feeds can be supported by topic map resources in real applications.  At the moment we don't publish XTM or XFML maps out of K-Collector but we could (I used to publish XFML from liveTopics but those files got big!)

Lastly I would really like to make a push for ENT support in other applications.  It seems a shame to me that, more than a year on, no other applications seem to have picked up on the benefits topic based aggregation offer to users.
[Curiouser and curiouser!]

Right on to Paolo and Matt!

Here we go!

I highly endorse using ENT as a way of us all standardizing on attaching keywords to RSS feeds.  On both sides.

I bet it'd be trivial for Apple to enable connections via Bluetooth (to your paired devices) to import photos.

We've writt en about Magnatunes and the Creative Commons a few times before, so yet another article on Magnatunes and the Creative Commons isn't all that interesting. However, this one makes a very good point which is worth repeating. The article asks, if people can get their music for free, why would they bother paying for CDs. The response, which Magnatunes founder basically tells them, is that they're asking the wrong question. People are already downloading music for free, and thus, the recording industry needs to figure out a way to adjust to that reality. The original question (what happens if people can get their music for free?) is like asking "but, what happens to buggy makers when automobiles are around?" The answer seems obvious to everyone, except those involved in the recording industry: they adapt or die. The recording industry is so focused on what they want to happen, that they've missed what's actually happening. The article also suggests that, so far, Magnatunes is doing quite well, and has the potential to be a viable longterm business - based on the idea of giving away music as a promotional good.

Due to the growing interest in e-commerce, an increasing percentage of all credit card transactions now happen online.

You might want to question that middle part, however. Unfortunately, using credit cards online isn't always as secure as it should be, and with so many online transactions happening these days, it's about time that credit card companies start making disposa ble credit card numbers the standard online.
