This is gonna get ugly. Twitter has one of the slowest dev cycles I’ve ever seen. All these people asking for feature upgrades— they never happen. Correction: they happen all right, but they happening at Jaiku, Facebook, and now Pownce. In fact, the person who gave me a Pownce invite commented about some functionality in Pownce that Jaiku has already had. So, the real war could be between Jaiku...

If a country were to take taxes to support work on the internet â and Iâm not saying it should â I donât think it should follow the old broadcasting model of creating content and a closed network to distribute it.

A publicly supported internet

I just learned via the Media Guardian podcast, while “running” this morning, that my friend Tom Loosemore, who helped guide the BBC into the future and who on the side helped create the constituent-empowering They Work for You, has left Auntie to go to OFCOM, the British media regulator, where he’ll work on the idea of public-serving publishing (PSP) — that is, a publicly supported internet. If...

I Love My… uhuh

I waited until 7pm before driving to the Apple Store last night. It was busy - customers, mainly gawking and Apple Store employees at the door, greeting passersby and offering the opportunity to try the iPhone. I poked and prodded one of the units, but in some ways, the first moments of touching it were almost anti-climactic. I’ve been immersed so deeply in iPhone news, comment and rumor that I...

Fundraising Bad Libs

My company provides stations with on-air pledge drive scripts. Some of those scripts have blank spaces for local information. The Morning Edition host at a client station recently commented that the scripts looked like a Mad Lib. I just couldn’t leave that idea alone. Here are two Fundraising Bad Libs for your enjoyment.

The Chelsea Hotel - A Tipping Point

A few years ago I was in New York to join my son James at his first art show. Where would we stay? I thought - Art = The Chelsea and made a reservation. When we arrived I chatted with a older looking man at the desk about how excited we were to be at the Chelsea and that we were in New York to honor our son’s art career. He then immediately upgraded us to room 822 - Madonna’s...
