Lisa makes the scene 06/17/2005 04:39 PM

Have I told you how cool it is to bring your family to a conference? Assuming you get a god babysitter - your sife gets to join you and we can have quality time together AND get worlk done.

So here's Lisa rapping to Richard Erickson of Bryght at VIDfest.

Meanwhile Mimi and Lucy are up in the hotel room with a sitter.

So for all of you road warriors who spend half their time schmoozing at conferences around the world - I highly recommend you take your families with you (Doc?)

Lisää Karpelan sensuurista

Lisää Karpelan sensuurista 04/03/2005 08:14 PM
Enter-lehden 3/2005 pääkirjoituksessa päätoimittaja Tuomas Kilpi suomii ankarasti ministeri Karpelan sensuurihanketta (linkittäisin suoraan pääkirjoitukseen, mutta sitä ei löydy verkosta. Mikä on jotakuinkin tyhmää - tokko kukaan lehteä ostaa lukeakseen pääkirjoituksen, mutta verkossa pääkirjoituksille löytyisi luultavasti enemmän vastakaikua.)

Juuri näin. Kun yritin ottaa selvää, millä perusteella blogiani sensuroidaan, vastauksena oli "se on ehkä tekninen vika". Todellinen vastaus on, ettei kukaan todella tiennyt, eikä ketään oikeasti kiinnostanut. Ja se on pelottavaa.

Lähetin tämän kirjeen Suomen Kuvalehden lukijapalstalle. Ehkä sillä on jotain vaikutusta. Luultavasti ei, mutta köyhän pitää yrittää.

(Ensin sensuroidaan raaka porno, sitten pehmeä porno, sitten laittomasti levitetyt elokuvat, sitten MP3:t, sitten väärät uskonnot, sitten eriävät mielipiteet, sitten Linu x... Kaikelle löytyy aina hyvä perustelu.)

Lisa Rein interview on Music for America

Lisa Rein interview on Music for America 12/11/2003 02:25 PM
Here's a great Music for America interview with activist/musician/geek Lisa Rein, whose open-invitation concert/party is this Saturday in San Francisco.

I believe that music is a good way to approach the emotional side of these controversial political issues. I believe that the cultural aspects of, for instance, copyright -- and the common man's loss of our history and heritage in exchange for big business to make more money on it's intellectual property -- are explained better through song.

I also believe that music is a good way to raise awareness about important issues. If you can write a song that's good in its own right, in that it's a catchy tune and people like it no matter what it's about -- that they might eventually read the lyrics and learn more about the issue you're singing about.

I try to follow John Lennon's model in raising awareness. He was able to eventually stop the vietnam war with this song and the feeling of love and community that he was able to bring to people at large. I hope to do the same thing and encourage others to climb on board.

This party is basically a chance for me to present my music and catch up with old friends. I've wanted to have a party for some time since I moved back to San Francisco in October 2001, but I kind of know a lot of people, and wanted to invite all of them, and still have enough room for the people I don't know personally yet to come by and say hi and hear my tunes.

Of a friend....Four Bay Area women conceived the Date My Friend idea in January by merging their original invite lists of 50 friends each, hoping that their single pals would be put at ease knowing that the guy asking for their number was somehow connected to them in that six-degrees-of-separation fashion."

The new Friendster

The new Friendster 02/05/2005 09:12 PM

I've been waiting a whiele to see what happens with the new Friendster. So far - not much. But they do send this nifty little newsletter nowadays - which has the status of some of my friends in it.

What intrigues me about this - is how did they know which friends to tell me about? Those who have updated recently? Those who are 'important' in the blogosphere - or what?

The reason I'm curious is that if you look at these peeps below - you'll notice nobody less than danah boyd, Xeni Jardin, Tyler Ziemann, Justin Hall and Scott Rafer.

Not a bad selection of peeps. So I'd say there's something going on here - something that's determining who is 'important' in my life - or something like that. Cause Julia Lolita is not known in the blogspehere and Noah Glass is kind of but not that much. Julia is an all-star in the SF/BM/LaLa party scene and Noah used to live with me as a roomate.

Julia's company "Blood & Butter" productions has put on some of the best parties ever - some of them at my house (with Noah particiapting I may add.) So how did Friendster know how important Julia is to me? Email traffic? And Jason is a friend of Julia's - I barely know him. He's teh one man out in this elite list. Hmmm.

But I don't exchange email with Justin, Xeni or Scott on Friendster? So I'm curious just how this list was determined.

Esther Dyson, queen of comedy.

I know I know - it is like poking a rattle snake with your foot. But I am feeling feisty this morning. Now that Esther Dyson doesn’t really have anything to say about anything (smart guy in her company is doing his own thing), she has decided that comedy is the next big thing.

Dyson got the biggest laugh by suggesting a business model for Sunnyvale-based Friendster, the popular social networking service and a company that has yet to collect any revenue from its users. Populated by lonely singles looking to line up dates, Friendster should start a personal gift registry, Dyson said. The bottom line would be: “If you want to date me, this is what you’ve got to buy me.” (San Jose Mercury News)

Yup, that’s a new business model, so new that every generation has been doing the same since Adam and …

Bring me my social networking

One day last year, I was sitting in the lobby of a hotel in midtown Manhattan with two friends. It was pouring rain outside, and we were in low-energy mode. We were idly thinking about going to see a movie at the theater across the street, but had no idea what was playing or when. Our next best plan was to go somewhere for a drink before dinner -- but again, no one had any good ideas about where. I also needed to check my email to catch up on tentative plans with an acquaintance further uptown -- a guy I knew well enough to exchange email with, but not well enough to have his phone number -- but I didn't have a computer or network access closer than my friends' room upstairs. And of course I was sitting there thinking, "Dammit! It's 2003, and the Interweb still sucks!"

That's what social networking should be, and unfortunately still isn't. In the long run, I don't actually give a rat's ass what my friends' favorite TV shows are -- because I never watch TV with them. Social networking has to be useful and able to solve real problems, not just be a cute (or pornographic) time-waster.

Of my interactions with social networking, the most positive ones so far have been (excluding blogs):

1) Career contacts via LinkedIn. These have been almost all of high quality, and save significant time for both me and the hiring manager. Not that I'm looking for a job right now, but it's always nice to know what's out there; and the introduction aspect is very valuable for this use-case.

2) Being able to route new contacts through Friendster. I love being able to say "Send me a Friendster message" to people I meet through the blogosphere or conferences, instead of having to give out my real email address or IM nick or phone number on the public Internet. And did you know you can now block Friendster messages from undesirable acquaintances?

3) Finding out via an Orkut group that one of my friends had quit his job. He was so busy he didn't bother to let me know his lame self via phone, email, blog, or carrier pigeon.

Given how much time I spent on social software, that's a pretty disappointing payoff. Unfortunately, I don't just get to bitch about it... I'm supposed to be making things better. So help me out here: what social experiences could be usefully intermediated by a service like Friendster, but aren't yet?

[troutgirl]

So that sure soudn sliek she's lookign for input on future features for Friendster. Right on!

Maybe the 'new' Friendster will not only support FOAF, OpenMedia, OpenEvents AND OpenReviews - but also lead us into an inter=-op world where our messages can freely flow from one system to another.

We called that ThreadsML last year.
