Jet lagged, but Flashed Forward

Jet lagged, but Flashed Forward 07/09/2004 01:44 PM

I arrived last night, made the mistake of eating a cheeseburger before bed and didn't sleep much and felt REALLY BAD this morning.

I crawled onto stage at Flash Forward this morning feeling very scattered and weak, but thanks to a strong topic and lots of funny movies to keep people awake, I was able to struggle through my talk. I talked about Creative Commons, Intellectual Property and the future of marketing. I channeled lots of Lessig and Godin. We did a Q&A session afterwards and I really enjoyed talking to the Flash community. Flash and Creative Commons makes SO MUCH SENSE together. The conference is extremely well organized and cool. I got to meet Stewart McBride and Lynda Weinman who really run a class act. Looking forward to figuring out some way to work with them on something...

After that, I went over to NPR and did a short interview about what I read. Blogs of course. ;-) I think the 20 min or so will be edited down to 3 min so I'm not sure what's going to end up in the interview, but I'll post a link once I know when it's going to air.

So no more public speaking until Apsen next week. Time to relax...

Seth Schoen: "The second thing that bothered me when I used XP was that codecs and viewers were constantly being downloaded automatically. That process was shielding millions of people from the intense politics surrounding the formats in which they receive and transmit data -- from the question of their legality or illegality, whether they are proprietary or not, what terms and restrictions attach to them, to whom they are available and for what purposes, whether they work well, who created them, why, and when, whether they will continue to be available and to whom and from whom, what and whose strategies they are a part of, with what and with whom they interoperate, under what conditions -- all invisibly submerged and putting the world of codecs and formats squarely under the power of marketing."

Zooko, Seth Schoen, and David Weekly have some interesting thoughts about pseudonymity. I've also cracked a LiveJournal identity, although quite by accident. This almost makes me want to create some nyms so that I can try to beat the system.

Seth Godin's ChangeThis 07/21/2004 02:33 AM

Seth Godin's new project, ChangeThis is a project to have interesting people write short "manifestos". Seth's working on creating a new form of literature. It's looks like something between a paper, a blog post and a marketing presentation with a message. It will be interesting to see how this takes off. It looks interesting to me. They have a blog, "Read and Pass".

Halley writes about it over on Worthwhile.

Seth Godin : Are bl0gs backward? 07/26/2004 07:47 PM

Seth Godin

Are blogs backward?

This leads me to two thoughts:
a. a lot more blogs should be posted in chronological order, like books. If you're trying to chronicle something, it makes a lot of sense to start at the beginning, as long as you provide regular readers an easy way to just read the current stuff (That's what RSS is for, right?). No, this isn't right for gizmodo. But it makes a lot of sense for someone, say, chronicling her experience in a 12 step program.

b. we need Movable Type or someone to create a simple way to create "greatest hits" pages. Not an archive, but a simple way for a new reader to read the ten posts we want them to start with, in the order we want them read, before they dive in.

I know it's weird to read a chronological blog. It's worse, imho, to leave a great blog just because the last two posts don't make sense out of context.

I think that blogs are creating a new format that people have become used to reading. Regardless of whether it is the most effective format, people are now accustomed to seeing new posts on top, stuff in the sidebar, etc. Granted that many people are reading blogs for the first time, I think that there is too much momentum to make a dramatic shift in the way we present information on blogs without a lot of confusion.

I think that making a "greatest hits" page easier to create makes sense. I personally like wiki pages for that sort of thing, but I could imagine it being built into a tool. Another thing people do is to put a sidebar section of favorite items and permalink from there.

Or maybe there is a way to create another view that allows you to read a blog from the beginning. That should be that hard.

Q&A with Patti Smith

Q&A with Patti Smith 04/01/2005 12:24 PM
Xeni Jardin: Newsweek's Brian Braiker interviews the high priestess of punk, Patti Smith. She is my idol. I am her biggest fan EVAR, and have been since, like, age 12. If there is an emoticon for bowing, consider it inserted. Snip:

What’s your take on the possible closure of CBGB?
Patti Smith: I have various thoughts on it. I have the Jackie Onassis spirit of preservation of our historic architecture. One of the things that has drawn so many people down to the Bowery area—the people living there and the housing and shops and all of the revitalization of that area—was CBGB. In those days the Bowery was skid row, there was nothing there but bums. People just didn’t go there. It wasn’t real dangerous; it was winos and hobos. They set the big trash cans on fire at night so they could warm

What does the club mean to you?
I went down there on Easter 1974, [guitarist] Lenny Kaye and I went there to see [the rock band] Television, and there were about 11 people there. It was like a dream come true, the whole situation. It was a little bar, there weren’t any grown-ups; you didn’t feel that the mafia was there. You weren’t forced to drink expensive stuff you didn’t want. And Television was a revelation. It was for me a pivotal night of my life, walking into CBGB and seeing Television. It resonated all the possibilities of our youth, what we were doing, what we were attempting to do.

What was that?
Our philosophy was that rock and roll should be a cultural voice and not glamorized. It didn’t belong to the rich and famous; it belonged to the people. It was the perfect place for us to excite each other and incite people and develop what we were doing. It’s sad for me to see CBGB’s close down because it really hasn’t changed at all, that’s the other beautiful thing. The same murals are up on the wall. It hasn’t gotten any better. The sound system hasn’t really gotten much better. The smell hasn’t gotten much better. It’s the same place. Actually I think Lenny and I are going to play there on May Day. It’s just a little job. We’re just going to play to thank CBGB’s, thank the walls, thank the stage. We’re just doing it to touch those walls again.
