Go Out and Buy the Wall Street Journal Today

If you work in technology as a vendor or consultant, you should really, really, really get the journal today.  The main front page store is on how the CIO for Verizon is "squeezing" vendors to cut their costs.  It really is scary. Here's the precis and if you're a subscriber the link:

Mr. Kheradpir Puts the Squeeze on Tech
For clues to the tech sector's failure to revive sagging sales, pay a visit to Shaygan Kheradpir. Verizon's chief information officer relentlessly pushes his charges to get more out of less equipment, an attitude that spells gloom for tech giants.

The article is excellent and a wake up call I suspect for a lot of us.  This is very similar to what I wrote recently about all vendors getting squeezed in the down economy (and why no link?  I can't $#$# find it since Roogle is current not archival .. Hm... ).

Wall Street Journal liberals: And then
there were none 02/05/2005 10:19 PM
Over at the New York Times, William Safire has retired, and people are speculating about whether the paper will replace him with another conservative, or whether David Brooks constitutes a sufficient dosage.

Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal op-ed roster recently lost its one token liberal voice when Al Hunt decided to leave the paper. Hunt was never a terribly exciting writer, but at least he exposed the Journal's readership to a glimmer of light from outside its own serenely hermetic universe. Would the Journal keep any room on its opinion pages -- otherwise filled with the usual motley gang of social neanderthals, rad-lib[ertarians] and Bush sycophants -- for a dissenting voice?

Apparently not. Today the paper told its readers that Hunt's old Thursday slot was going to be filled by a rotating gang of commentary writers presenting outside-the-Beltway perspectives.

Look, I'm all for getting out of the Beltway. But getting out of your own partisan wagon-circle is also healthy. Doesn't the Journal have room for a single dissenter? Or is that whole concept just so, like, pre-9/11 that the Journal doesn't even think it's worth addressing?

First Signs Of Trouble At The Wall
Street Journal? 04/15/2005 12:47 PM
The Wall Street Journal's own strategy over the past few years has been baffling for some. They seem to be betting on the fact that there simply could never be any competition to match the WSJ. However, with a string of moves that suggest they're completely unaware of how the internet works, plenty of people have been point ing out that the Wall Street Journal is losing its relevance. Of course, this brings out cries about how much better the content is in the WSJ -- but if people don't find it valuable relative to the competition, then it doesn't matter how good the content is, the Journal will have trouble competing. It appears that the Journal's own advertisers are figuring this out, and have bailed on the paper, leading the paper to report troubled earnings and worries about the strategy of the paper going forward. So far, the strategy seems to be to convi nce other newspapers to make the same mistakes the WSJ did. This is the "if everyone screws up as badly as we did, then we won't look so bad" strategy that tends not to work so well in the real world. The article notes, by the way, that the Journal's online division out-performed the paper division -- but that's probably a red herring, since it's difficult to split the costs of each. Are stories that show up on both considered an expense for the paper, the online part, or both? No matter what, this shows that advertisers are recognizing that the WSJ hasn't been able to adjust with the times, and there are better places to put their money when it comes to advertising to the financial crowd. For a paper that's supposed to be on the Wall Street beat, you'd figure they'd have a better sense as to when their own market shifted out from under them.

Trying to Understand WiMax? The Wall
Street Journal Explains 05/24/2004 02:21 PM
The Journal's Nick Wingfield lays out the WiMax field, including the basis of its technology, its potential for rollout, and the current state of wireless broadband: Wingfield's article is a solid portrayal of the state of the industry, including the likely date for real equipment being available in the U.S. (2006, he notes, which jibes with fellow editor Nancy Gohring's research among WiMax-backin gcompanies), the market size, and the potential competition with cellular data and existing wireline services. WiMax and its early relatives has the best potential in areas in which service is difficult to obtain (the prairie or Manhattan), wireline services offer limits to uploads and downloads far below a wireless broadband offering (at the edges of DSL coverage, for instance), or where wireless broadband is just plain cheaper. In some cases, early wireless broadband offers high speeds at cost that are the same or as little as half of competing wireline offerings. I'm not bullish on WiMax's mobile options, which are even further out in the future for deployment because by the time that standard is set, the cell companies will have had three or four years dealing with the first and probably second iterations of 3G cellular data. Meanwhile, Wi-Fi might blanket whole cities, an increasing trend. [link via Brian Chin]...

Under the banner of "'Torture' Showdown," the Wall Street Journal's masthead editorial on the Alberto Gonzales confirmation hearings in Washington today is a real piece of work. It's got more holes in it than the chain link fences and razor wire at Guantanamo. That's more than we have time to count, but here are a couple of the most gaping:

Yet another indication of how the news media is moving online. The Wall Street Journal is now going to start counting online subscribers in their overall subscription count. The idea, of course, is to present higher numbers for the sake of advertisers (even if different advertising shows up online as in print), and to suggest good demographic numbers for advertisers.

The New York Post is reporting that the Wall Street Journal earned more money with its online Web site than its print publication. Predictably, though, the Post spins it all wrong: instead of talking about the success of the online arm, it talks about the failure of the print side and about how WSJ publisher Peter Kann, could be “sweating over his job again”….

Grandpa, I finally made the Wall Street
Journal -- by bl0gging 04/14/2004 03:45 AM
Two months ago, I wrote up my experience of sending out a resume, only to see it appear in my spam folder half an hour later. Last week, I got a call from a reporter for the Wall Street Journal, Kris Maher, who was doing a story on job hunting and spam filters, and who had found my post via Google. He interviewed me over the phone, and unlike some of my other interactions with journalists, what he wrote bears a reasonable resemblance to what I told him, although he didn't go with my suggestion for the story hook -- the increasing unreliability of email. Here is what he wrote, quoted from a freely available copy of the story as syndicated to The Arizona Republic, of all places: Tim Bishop started to worry about spam filters after he e-mailed a resume in February. He was shocked to discover 30 minutes after hitting the send button that a copy he sent to himself turned up in his own spam folder. Today, Mr. Bishop, a 42-year-old president of a software-development company in Berkeley, Calif., runs every resume and cover letter through three spam filters on his computer before e-mailing them. "I figure if it passes those three filters, it's probably OK," Mr. Bishop says. I think I wrote the story more engagingly, but less completely, but I'll let our readers be the judge of that. An amusing side note to the story is that my grandfather is an old line businessman who worked for the same company for 50 years, and even after retiring he reads the Wall Street Journal cover-to-cover almost every day. For years he has asked about my career, and seemed slightly puzzled at the (to him) rapid succession of different jobs at different companies, most of which never appeared on the pages of the WSJ. I have certainly personally done nothing newsworthy enough to get my name in the WSJ. Imagine his surprise tomorrow morning when he sees my name in the WSJ, not for any accomplishment, but because I self-published a story of my experiences with email, resumes, and spam. P.S. For the curious, and especially for those who are hiring, my resume can be found online, avoiding all that difficulty with spam and email. My partners and I shut down our software development company at the end of last year, and I'm currently looking for a...

"Many mainstream media blogs serve as repositories for the journalistic detritus that wasn’t good enough for the print edition. Hemmed in by tradition, they lack the candor and point of view that distinguishes good blogs. Bereft of good material, they lack the depth and quality of print journalism."

Silicon Valley 100

Silicon Valley 100 02/01/2005 09:19 PM

Silicon Valley 100 is a project by Auren Hoffman. I was lucky enough to make it on the list. The idea is to make a list of "connectors" and send them new gadgets and products to test. Newsweek just did a story about this. I think it is almost like an opt-in focus group. The obvious criticism would be these companies are trying to buy "buzz". The difference between this and some buzz creation companies is 1) it's not stealth 2) they don't tell you what to say. I checked with Auren and he says that we can write whatever we want about the products. When I get a product from Silicon Valley 100, I will state this clearly in any blog post that refers to it and will say what I think. I realize that the fact that we probably get to keep most of the products makes it a bit like bribery, but if it's crap, I'm sure most people will throw it away. I would be most interested in products that are still not on the market where our feedback could be incorporated in the product design. Then our feedback could be more constructive...

Anyway, I'd be curious on people's thoughts.

The first product is a brondell high-tech toilet seat. I told Auren, that this is one product that Japan is a world leader in. I blogged this before, but we have over 50% household penetration. The one in my house and in my office even has anti-stinky gas-gate like air filtration.

UPDATE: Just uploaded a 5 min 4.3 MB conversation with Auren Hoffman, the founder of the Silicon Valley 100.

UPDATE 2: Uploaded it to archive.org too. Maybe I should put my media files there instead since archive org does the file conversions for me too...
