RSS Meetup

RSS Meetup 04/09/2004 04:02 PM
So—I had signed up for RSS Meetups, and then I got an email asking me to vote on a venue.

Then I checked, and found that I was the only Seattle-ite who had signed up, so I made my decision. The meetup will be held wherever I happen to be at the scheduled time, and everybody (me) will be in attendance, and we don’t have to talk about RSS if we don’t feel like it.

In fact, if we just want to watch TV, or play with the cat, or do some coding—that’s all fine.

Review : PHP Meetup I'd love to tell you glowing things about the Boston PHP Meetup. How I networked, learned, found new clients and even ate good food. N O P E !!!! Instead the event failed as follows: Arrive at restaurant. Sign on door "For Rent". Not a positive thing. Stand on street corner in 25 degree weather feeling like a fool. Wait 15 minutes. No one arrives Walk away in disgust thinking "Not only did no one show but the $#($)#*$)(# restaurant was closed so I didn't even get food" Pathetic. I mean THE RESTAURANT WASN'T EVEN IN BUSINESS !!! Note to the meetup crew: GET A CLUE.

The inevitable demise of meetup.com

The inevitable demise of meetup.com 04/14/2005 07:31 PM
In the beginning was a great idea: let’s create a Web site that makes it easy for people with similar interests to find each other and coordinate face-to-face meetings. And so Meetup.com was born, and grew, and grew. Along the way it became part of the massive, amorphous “social networking” set of companies (which includes LinkedIn, Orkut, Ryze and most famously Friendster. All of these companies now face the same challenge that hit thousands of…

Technorati Meetup in Tokyo, 5/27/04,
18:00-21:00 05/25/2004 11:54 AM

After the great fun we had at the Developer's Salon last week, it turns out I'm in Tokyo this week, and Joi Ito and some great folks in Japan have set up a Technorati Meetup for this Thursday. Joi has all the details, but here's the basic scoop:

When: May 27, 2004 18:00-21:00
Where: Tokyo 21c Club, 7th Fl of Marunouchi Building
RSVP: To Kenta Ushijima. We have a 50 person limit, so send your RSVPs in early!

Since we're a young startup, we're picking up the room and incidentals but we're asking for 2000 yen per person to cover refreshments. Looking forward to seeing all of you Kanto bloggers there, and I hope that we can have at least as invigorating and interesting a discussion as we had in San Francisco. I'll be presenting some of the information and results we learned as well. BTW, Here's some links to people who posted about the SF meeting. Great seeing you all, looking forward to the next one, I'll post as soon as we have firm dates/times.

Meetup About Business Model Lessons

Meetup About Business Model Lessons 04/13/2005 02:55 PM
Meetup Inc. become something of an internet darling during the US Presidential campaigns, after people started using it for political organizing. The concept was straight-forward. Use the web to find like-minded individuals in a certain area who could (yup) "meet up" in person. What was unclear from the beginning, though, was how Meetup was ever going to make money. Originally, the plan was to get money out of the venues where the various meetups occurred. Apparently, that didn't work out, and now, Meetup is making news for its decision to charge each "group" $19/month to keep going. They certainly expect to lose many of their groups, and lots of people are already noting that the price seems quite steep for what were mostly small, informal gatherings. The real issue, though, is that it looks like Meetup has forgotten the first rule of internet-based business models: don't charge for something that was free before. It's very, very difficult to make that work (there are a few small exceptions). Generally speaking, though, if people expect something to be free, suddenly turning around and charging for it is seen as swiping the rug out from under them. They embraced your offering, in part, because it was free. You can charge for new and additional services -- but pissing off most of your users with surprise fees, after being sold on the free idea, tends to come back to bite many companies that have tried it. If anything, it tends to encourage competition to come in and offer what you used to offer... for free.

Notes from Tokyo Technorati Meetup

Notes from Tokyo Technorati Meetup 05/31/2004 07:06 PM
When I was in Tokyo a couple of weeks ago, I exchanged email with Sid, a nice guy who recently moved from the US to Tokyo. Here's his report of a Technorati meetup in Tokyo, which has some interesting statistics:

I just moved to Tokyo and saw on Joi Ito's site that he and Dave Sifry, Technorati CEO, were putting on a "Technorati Meetup" on Thursday night at the Marinouchi Building, so I decided to go. It was a fun time, I learned a lot, and they had free Wi-Fi (a rarity in Tokyo), so I was able to update several programs real fast.

Here are some notes from Dave's talk (which Joi translated, although Dave speaks Japanese).

Technorati tracks 2.4 million blogs.

45% haven't posted in three months.

Around 200,000 new blogs are created daily.

About 7 minutes after someone posts a new entry it's indexed by Technorati and searchable

Sifry says blogs are striving for authority, as defined by how many people link to you when you write about things. You may not write the truth or even be correct, but if you're interesting people link to you.

He sees bloggers as commentators on the news and filters on the news, rather than replacing the news ... though blogs are giving big media sites a run for their money on hits and attention (as seen on a chart of hits).

Technorati has an active developers' site with several bindings and sample code of the program for people to use and mutate on their own. "Because if there's one thing I know, it's that you guys are all smarter than me," Sifry says.

An example is a program Joi wrote to send SMS to his phone when someone links to his site. It vibrates every time somebody links to him (and he encourages frequent linking).

Future directions for Technorati: Open reviews, subscribe to keywords and Cosmos filters, discovery & filtering of subscription lists, vote links and geographic search & filtering, which is hard because people have to put in GPS coordinates (applies more to phone blogging). There currently are 11,000 blogs in the geographic database.
