Microsoft researchers make me cry
via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogger by Robert Scoble on February 14, 2008

The first time I saw an Apple II in 1977. When Richard Cameron showed me Apple’s Hypercard. Microsoft’s Excel. Aldus’ Pagemaker. And something called Photoshop, all in his West Valley Community...

via ReadWriteWeb by Josh Catone on February 26, 2008
Scott Karp attempted to coin a new term on his Publishing2 blog today: link journalism. "Link journalism is linking to other reporting on the web to enhance, complement, source, or add more context to a journalist’s original reporting," he wrote. Links as journalism is something that Karp has been writing about recently; it ties into new media and citizen journalism, and it is something that...

Gilligan's web
via Rough Type: Nicholas Carr's Blog by (author unknown) on May 14, 2008
Despite the party-pooperism of the Deletionists, the true glory of Wikipedia continues to lie in the obscure, the arcane, and the ephemeral. Nowhere else will you find such painstakingly detailed explications of TV shows, video games, cartoons, obsolete software languages, Canadian train stations, and the workings of machines that exist only in science fiction. When I recently felt an unexpected...

The noise reduction system
via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogger by Robert Scoble on May 08, 2008

Everyone loves beating me up for causing the noise. No, I am not the cause. I pass it along. You should see my inbound streams. Every second or two a new Twitter is aimed at me. Every few seconds, a new blog...

Roger Ailes gives an object lesson in brutal truth
via John Gapper by John Gapper on February 08, 2008
Good Lord. Talking of internal memos to staff, here is one sent out today by Roger Ailes, chief executive of Fox News. Unlike Jerry Yang's, Mr Ailes' memo is written with meticulous clarity, as befits one of the great media communicators (I make no judgement about the message, just how it is expressed).His message to staff is: Quit whining and, if you don't like working here,...

I've built quite a few of these, first at McKinsey, and in my current role at Socialtext. Here are three top-of-mind high-level best practices based on pitfalls I've seen some...
