Dan Gillmor is one of my favorite peeps

Dan Gillmor is one of my favorite peeps 08/01/2004 01:32 PM

Here's Dan's comments after the launch party of his new book "We, the Media". NOTE: I got to bring my twins Aron and Jacob to the party. That was fun showing them off.

Here's Dan's post....

J.D. Lasica and Brian Dear were among the folks who came to last night's gathering celebrating the book launch and the relocation of Creative Commons to its new offices in San Francisco. I was honored by the presence of so many fine folks.

The book was published under a Creative Commons license, permitting non-commercial use of the material as long as people give it proper attribution and add their "remixes" back into the world under a similar license. (The book will be online in full very soon on the publisher's official site.)

In my brief remarks to the folks who'd gathered last evening, I talked about the great value Creative Commons is giving to all of us, by doing its part to restore a tiny bit of balance in the copyright regime. I doubt many publishers would have allowed me to live up to what I've been saying on copyright these past few years, and I'm grateful that I have a publisher who totally gets it.

Brian Dear and JD Lasica also had their own posts on the party. Here's some of Brian's shots.....

Online gallery of Easter-themed diorama art created with Marshmallow Peeps. What are Peeps? Well, the Washington Post says they're "the chick-and-bunny-shaped marshmallow treats that have become America's best-loved harbingers of the season". You might call these images of winning art contest entries -- yes, yes -- a PEEP show. Huhhuhhuh. I think my favorite is this Mel Gibson homage, The Passion of the Peeps.

Snip from the show review:

"Another religious entry could be described as Memorable Moments in Marshmallow Martyrdom. Created by two Catholic school girls, it depicted four saint scenes, including John the Baptist beheaded, Joan of Arc being burned at the stake, St. Peter crucified upside down on Pop-sicle sticks and St. Stephen being stoned to death by jelly beans."

Studiou s peeps. A comprehensive and well documented look at the study habits and research practices of marshmallow Peeps. "Our observations indicated that it was virtually impossible for Peeps to remove items from the upper shelves of the library stacks." Conclusion: Marshmallow Peeps have no business doing research at the university level.

We, the Media by Dan Gillmor


We, the Media by Dan Gillmor 05/17/2004 10:25 AM

Just finished reading the Galley Proof of We, the Media: Grassroots Journalism by the People, for the People by Dan Gillmor. O'Reilly is the publisher and it should becoming out mid-July. The book will be published under a Creative Commons license and you will be able to download it free for non-commercial use.

Dan is one of the few professional journalists that really understands the impact of blogs and other new technologies on journalism. It's amazing how many professional journalists I know poo poo blogs and keep on chugging like nothing is changing. We, the Media is a excellent book that should be enlightening and humbling for professional journalists. It is also a great guide for us little "j" journalists about what the possibilities are as well as what the difficulties will be. Anyway, it's an amazingly important book for anyone interested in journalism and democracy. It goes well with Lawrence Lessig's Free Culture and Howard Rheingold's Smart Mobs.


Thank God for Steve Gillmor


Thank God for Steve Gillmor 02/01/2005 08:42 PM

Steve is the only guy who reminds me of what it was like before....

Everyone else - from Dave Winer, Steve Levy, Dan Farber, Mitch Kapor, Heidi Roizen the whole gang - all all grown and matured. But Steve still reminds me of what it was like BEFORE Windows - back when Apple still had a chance.

Before the ultimate mistake - that cost them the market and their company. It's nice that Apple has great products now - but I'm a software guy and I have to figure out what to do. This 'comeback' that Jobs is formulating must prove ONE thing.

Will they license their software or not?

I believe the Motorola deal is what we're waiting for - right?

The HP deal is nothing more than turning HP into their sales force. But it's the iPhone that will show what the future of Apple is.

When you read this rant from Steve Gillmor - remember one thing. Apple DOES have the best products and software. And they stole allot from Xerox PARC so we can steal from them. Remember that.

Everything they do is OUR roadmap. OUR R&D.

So without any further ado...... Steve Gillmor....

With all due respect to Marc Canter, thank god for Apple. As Microsoft’s DRMForSure juggernaut rolled out of Vegas with a full head of cartel-fired steam, even phone guru Russell Beattie was ready to bow before Bill Gates and that personal video device vibrating in his pocket. Though Bill’s message was marginally diluted by some demo misfires in his CESdex keynote, the gathering force of Media Center extenders, Scoble’s Smartphone, and the tantalizing prospect of being able to watch the West Wing in letterbox format on a one-inch screen at 50,000 feet all conspired to create a surprisingly vivid re-innovation of Steve Jobs’ patented reality distortion field.

With all due respect to Robert Scoble, thank god for Apple. When Steve strolled out to center stage with the Mini, he got more applause for the box than anything Bill showed Conan O’Brien. Actually, there was a collective gasp over the size of the box, as it drove home the nuanced multi-threaded message of the Apple play: less is more. The ThinkSecret leaks didn’t take the power out of the punchline–they amplified it.

With all due respect to Dan Gillmor, thank god for Apple. They don’t call them trade secrets for nothing. Personally, I think they sued for the same reasons Gates called us communists: to protect their business model. Thank god for the EFF, too. Personally, I think the gasp in the Moscone Center should be used as Defense Exhibit A for the fact that no secrets were exposed.

The biggest secret of all was the word not spoken in either Vegas or San Francisco: podcasting. Nowhere to be seen was the ru mored Firewire audio breakout box, the reported subject of several subpoenas issued in December. But add up the rest of the announcements, most shipping by the end of the month, and you may notice that Apple has restructured itself around the iPod platform.

1. The iPod Shuffle
Though most of us boomers can’t fathom the idea that "life is random" is a feature, the Shuffle’s secret sauce is its Playlist mode, turned off by default. Attention: iPodder developers–if you develop SmartPlaylist functionality in your aggregators, you can use attention and other explicit metadata to program iTunes to download, sort, and sequence podcasts while you sleep. Remember, the iPod is the delivery system, the data cache at the end of the pipeline. Of course, if some smart 3rd-party vendor adds a microphone that clips onto the Shuffle, it’s a data recorder hanging around your neck.

2. The Mini
For podcasters, this is a $500 studio-in-a-box. GarageBand now supports multitrack recording (eight channels each with their own eq and effects) and the ability to create your own loops. Combine GarageBand with Smart Playlists and slice and dice your podcasts up into "songs" that you can sequence and, more importantly, pull "quotes" for inclusion in other podcasts. Once again, remember that the iPod is the endpoint of the production environment. The Mini is the studio, the mastering lab, where you cut the virtual grooves between the tracks of these next-generation podcasts.

3. Tiger
The next version of OS/X will load just fine on the Mini, too. It comes with Automator, which, if hooked up to GarageBand, would provide an automated way to refactor existing long-form podcasts into this new track model. Automator could also build consoles to automate real-time, radio-style production with multiple audio inputs, taking advantage of Tiger’s enhanced ability to handle multiple virtual audio devices.

4. iWork and iLife
Keynote, Pages, and iMovie are morphing into a podcast-to-video porting environment. Use Automator consoles to load in podcast segments and annotate them with links, iPhoto transitions, and attention-influenced intelligent caching of related pod- and Mini-casts, and you’re well on your way to a read/write version of the RSS-powered multimedia Web. While DRMForSure coddles the cartel, the iPod Platform plays to the customers in the seats.

With all due respect to Bill Gates, thank god for Apple. If Apple didn’t exist, Bill, you’d have to invent them. Perhaps you did. It’s the real Bill and Steve Show. Two peas in a Pod, that’s for sure.

Gillmor Gang


Gillmor Gang 07/01/2004 08:56 AM

Okay I admit I've become an addict of The Gillmor Gang. I copy them to my MP3 player, which unlike the Sony below, plays MP3s (I guess it's kind of obvious, but the obvious seems to have eluded Sony, that MP3 players should actually play MP3s) and take it on my daily walk. The last one I listened to, from June 18, was about whether Sun should open source Java. It was good. I imagine I feel about them as a lot of people feel about Scripting News, they're mostly wrong, in a predictable way, but they get you thinking. I've also become a fan of Doug Kaye's interviews with people with blogs. I downloaded his intervi ew with Doc Searls, and plan to listen to it on my Friday walk, or maybe on the drive down to NY on Sunday. There's this gap between Worcester and Hartford where there isn't much good radio. Hey I'm getting good at this stuff.

Dan Gillmor launches new life


Dan Gillmor launches new life 01/01/2005 04:58 PM
Xeni Jardin: Pioneering journalist and fearless tech explorer Dan Gillmor has a new home on the web -- and new plans. He writes:
For the first time in two decades I'm not on the payroll of a large media corporation. As of today I'm on the payroll of a one-person company, comprised of me, but media is still on my agenda.

As many of you know I'm going to work hard on a project to inspire, enable and create what many have been calling a new kind of journalism. In the new world that I and many others believe is coming, the grassroots will have a fundamental and crucial role in the process -- a change that I tried to outline in my book, We the Media, which appeared in the second half of 2004.

For me, this departure is challenging and exciting. I've left what surely is one of the best jobs in mainstream journalism, and will miss my former colleagues immensely (not to mention the pay, benefits and freedom to say what I believed).

I'm also jazzed. Yes, this is a chance to truly walk my talk. But the opportunity to be in on what I consider a pivotal shift, and to be involved just as it begins to happen, made my decision easy.

Last week's Gillmor Gang


Last week's Gillmor Gang 12/25/2004 05:31 PM

Yesterday I listened to the identity discussion on The Gillmor Gang. It was very good, as far as it went, but it couldn't go very far, because identity doesn't go very far. This is one of the big problems that refuses to get solved. Like Jon Udell, I expected us to have a global identity system a long time ago.

A picture named fork.jpgDoc Searls, bless his heart, offered RSS and podcasting as examples of technologies that were simple, therefore successful, and suggests that identity, if it were to be approached the same way, might have similar success. Bzzzt. Wrong. RSS was not easy, it was hard, for exactly the same reasons identity is hard. Too many cooks spoil the broth. Two ways to do identity is one too many.

Politics spoiled identity, and would have spoiled RSS had the major players not converged on RSS 2.0. The difference this time was that there was a Switzerland, me, to guide RSS through its gauntlet, and I clearly wasn't in bed with any of the major publishers or vendors. The Harvard connection didn't hurt because it's a highly respected university that hadn't been involved in tech standards. Had identity had that kind of champion-ship it might not be the mess it is today.

Instead, when Microsoft started moving behind the scenes in 1997, it was also busy losing the trust of the tech industry, the government, and probably to some extent, the public, by attacking Netscape and the Web. When we tell the history of this chapter of computing history, the costs of Microsoft's aggression will be seen to be very high, not just for them, but for all of us. Now we're stuck, we don't have a leader to turn to to settle the mess of identity.


A Hurrah for Steve Gillmor


A Hurrah for Steve Gillmor 06/22/2005 02:59 AM

My last chat with Steve Gillmor left me a little sad because, it seemed to me, he was fighting the world, trying to drag it to where he thinks it should go. I find myself all to often in that position so I felt sympathy. What is worse, his profession didn't jive with his ambition.

But it looks like he is, or at least attempting to, escape from that frame of mind. So hurrah for Steve. In my view, Steve's best role is to be the bouncing surface for the technical world because I think his intellect, wisdom, and opinions can make anything interesting.

It's a real shame that Dick's good buddy Tim - couldn't find some stage time for Sxip.

Oh well - they will.

But at least Steve is listening and grokking.
