Wired News interview with Dan Gillmor on

Wired News interview with Dan Gillmor on
"We The Media"
08/11/2004 12:08 PMIn today's Wired News, an interview I conducted with veteran tech
journalist and blogger
Dan
Gillmor. In his new book,
We the Media: Grassroots
Journalism by the People, for the People, he chronicles the
social and economic impact of weblogs, wikis, mobile technology and
other networked phenomena on the business of news.
WN: What role do blogs play in all of this?
Gillmor: They have joined the journalism ecosystem. It's more
symbiosis than rivalry. I disagree with Big Media partisans who feel
blogs are irrelevant, and with blog promoters who see the demise of
professional journalism.
WN: How did you see some of the issues in your book play out at
the Democratic Convention? What sorts of trends and activity patterns
do you anticipate as the November elections approach?
Gillmor: Bloggers became pets for the Big Media. You could almost see
the establishment journalists petting bloggers like poodles and
cooing, "Oh, good bloggers, aren't you cute!" (Apart from the ones who
put on body armor and said, "Omigod, these pit bulls are dangerous!")
It'll take a few more conventions -- and a time when blogs aren't a
novelty -- for everyone to sort this out.

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.

12/19/2004 03:40 PMDan Gillmor is leaving the SJ Merc to launch a project
that continues the best of blogs. Few have the courage to risk so much
for this. He has earned praise for the work he has done, and respect
for this next step that he is taking.
Thank God for Steve Gillmor
Thank God for Steve Gillmor
02/01/2005 08:42 PMSteve 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.

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

01/01/2005 04:58 PMXeni 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.

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.

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.

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.
Doc 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.

Hardt last night in a nearly deserted BoF - here at ETech.
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.
Gillmor Gang, podcasting and Digital
Identity
Gillmor Gang, podcasting and Digital
Identity
01/02/2005 11:26 PMI had the honor of being invited into the Dec.
31st, 2004 Gillmor Gang in their last podcast of 2004. I was
being used as filler representing the humans and FOAF in the digital identity
space.
Dick Hardt couldn't make it - so I also represented the Sxip Networks approach in this conversation
as well.
Some really important things came out of this conversation and it's
incumbant upon us to build on these opportunities. The most important
thing I think that happened was when Dave Winer pointed out that the
average software developer is not in a position to support one of
these complex identity systems out there, like Liberty Alliance or the
WS-* stack. Dave called it the 6th Law of Identity - KISS.
So BAM! It is just so obvious to me why Dick
Hardt built Sxip they way that they did! It's exactly what Dave asked
for!
Sxip can easily be supported (with as little as some Javascript)
and provides as thin of a layer as possible, while providing a
DNS-like service for digital identity. You can dive into it deeper -
building your own Sxip-compatible storage portals or just create a
site that reads compatible Sxip profiles and meta-data.
But the only money that's paid to Sxip is for maintaining a
HomeSite or MemberSite - and it's roughly the same price as
maintaining a digital certificate or domain name registered - and
end-users pay nothing.
Sxip does not store ANY of the end-user's meta-data or even profile
data about yourself.
Sxip simply stores (what they call) a GUPI - which is a value
presenting you and which points to your designated "HomeSite" (read:
DLA.) You can then move your data to any other HomeSite or what they
call "Membersite". This creates a SSO (single sign-on) environment
for all sorts of new apps, servcies and interactive content.
Sxip also supports the notion of multiple persona (which is part of
our PeopleAggregator design) and is everything we need for our 'open
standards' efforts, like ourmedia.org.
So I
nominated Dick Hard
t to be the leader - as he's both a nice guy, really smart and is
spending his own money. So he really reminds me of me.
So I wanna thank Steve Gillmor and Doc for asking me to be on the
show and I can now say "I've drank the podcast koolaid". My lord.
I call it a podcast as that seems to be the term everyone likes to
use. Clearly it's just an audio blog post, that (if you feel like
it) can be subscribed to via RSS and downloaded into their iTunes
and listened to on their iPod.
But I'll never buy an Apple product ever again - so I have a
problem with calling audio blogging being subscribed to via RSS =
podcasting. I also have a problem with the fact that there is no
meta-data for these podcasts - but I'm willing to leave all that
"behind me". I'm stepping back and divesting.
Dave Winer asked for us all to "give something up". So I'll start
calling audio blogging podcasting and you can help us all work
together.
OK?
