Ok, Wired, Let’s Do This.
via TechCrunch by Michael Arrington on May 14, 2008
A week ago Wired Magazine voiced its displeasure over our syndication partnership with the Washington Post. Wired’s Betsy Schiffman wrote “We’ve got nothing against TechCrunch, but it seems crazy-crazy to us that the Washington Post, a paper known for the sort of reporting that can take down U.S. presidents, is publishing content written by a dude who invests in the companies he writes...

The Ethics Tipping Point?
via Profy.Com by Cyndy Aleo-Carreira on May 12, 2008
Have we finally reached the tipping point for actually stating that we have ethics and where we draw those lines?It wasn't even a month ago when I mentioned that all bloggers may need a personal code of ethics as detailed as Kara Swisher's if we wanted to be taken seriously as journalists. There is often a fuzzy line, especially when you are writing in a world where blogs often co-sponsor...

Porting Twitter Digest to Google App Engine
via persistent.info by Mihai Parparita on May 12, 2008
I've been meaning to play around with Google App Engine for a while, and as a quick project, I decided to port Twitter Digest to it (not as exciting as Kushal's Millidunst Calculator). This looked to be pretty straightforward: the original version was already in Python, and wasn't very complicated (just a single CGI script). It did indeed end up pretty easy; the whole process took a...

Seesmic and Disqus sittin in a tree
via Scripting News by (author unknown) on May 14, 2008
I like video comments, didn't think I would but I do. I think people are more responsible and throughtful when their words are backed by their voice and face.So when Daniel at Disqus and Loic at Seesmic asked if I would let them use Scripting News as one of the places they rolled out their new partnership I said Yes and I would be honored (I said it weeeth ze Franch agzent). I thought they...

Too Many Choices, Too Much Content
via ReadWriteWeb by Sarah Perez on May 14, 2008
Sometimes it's just hard to keep up. In this technology-focused niche we all live in there are new applications, new initiatives, and new platforms that spring up every day, not to mention constantly breaking news that fills our RSS readers. Take a day off and you're behind. Take an hour off and you just missed 300 more blog posts. In addition to the everyday struggles of information...

Shared by Nico friendconnect wird die news der nächsten tage dominieren...Later tonight Google will launch a new service called Friend Connect, aiming to "bring the social" to any page around the web. Unfortunately the service takes a bunch of open technical standards yearning to see the light of day through mass adoption and puts them in a dark little box where they will struggle to breathe. ...

Are you part of a social media clique? Why or why not?
via notes, thoughts, ideas and responses by Julian Baldwin on May 13, 2008
Louis Gray discussed one of the underlying principles of social media - clique formations. He talks about how the clique of bloggers you interact with will change over time in response to behavior of the individuals forming the group. Maybe they stop writing, their personal interests evolve or there is miscommunication. The last point I hit on in this video and say make sure you know the person...

ReadBurner Partners with NetVibes
via chrisbrogan.com by chrisbrogan on May 13, 2008

They’ve just released (20 minutes ago) a tie into NetVibes via the Ginger API, that will promote a similar kind of feature. The tab is already live on...

Disqus and Seesmic Pair Up For Video Comments
via A VC by Fred on May 14, 2008
First, let me say that I am not sure about the utility of video comments. I've seen them and even viewed them on Techcrunch and I think they slow down and break up the conversation more than they contribute to it. But I also firmly believe in trying everything at least once before making up my mind. So with that proviso behind me, the news this morning is that Disqus, the comment system I use...
