Reply | Original | Permalink | TweetHi Chris,
I like this post. I just went to two conferences recently, the 140 Characters Conference and the Personal Democracy Forum.BEING THERE
Being in the room with some of these amazing speakers was thrilling. You could feel the electricity. Wyclef Jean and Ann Curry at the 140 Confernce were amazing. The video is not going to capture the experience of being in the same room. Same thing happend at the Personal Democracy Forum.At both of these confereces, the best part of the conference was not in the hallways, it was in the sessions.
For me, a lot of the content was new, and in areas of interest that aren't my main focus. So hearing from experts, giving prepared speeches, worked for me, and worked well.
The networking at these conferences did happen, but for me it was mostly after the sessions.
INTERACTIVE BRAINSHARE
I like the idea of working with attendees of a session to do things. At the 140 Conference, my panel on video twitter was all Q and A. I liked that.When I do presentations on web video, I like to involve the participants.
I like to open up my seesions with questions to see where the interest is.
I look forward to Podcamp 4 and being able to have a session on web video and see where it takes us.

Reply | Original | Permalink | TweetYou're right, I just got a tweet last night asking if I was still in NYC. I had updated twitter, brightkite and foursqure that I was back in Boston, but the twitter had not seen any of that. I think they even messaged me through foursquarem which should have told them where I was.
I think the silos of the information of now need to be linked together like the instant messaging systems were supposed to be linked,.
Also, instead of duplicating the data everywhere, wouldn't it be nice if it could be normalized in one place, where other systems could then grab your status information?

Reply | Original | Permalink | TweetThe user interface needs a permalinked URL so you can send it to people on your own mailing list instead of having to key in email addresses.
Reply | Original | Permalink | TweetThey directly told me in a meeting a few years ago. I was there to help and advise them and they ignored everything.
They still don't care.
They had a convoluted process where the newspaper and online were seperate and as I understand it people had to re-key the stories to get them online. Not sure of the specifics since I never saw it, but I think this might have improved since I last met them. But the main point is that the online Globe does not believe in the link economy at it's core.
Even tech articles don't include links. Authors are at the mercy of the newspaper.
In Sunday's Bo Burnham article, the main YouTube video, My Whole Family,... is not linked to.
Article:
http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/magazine/arti...Here's the link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZoO8LyizLAUsually I contact the author to have him/her contact someone to get links added, if it's even possible. Sometimes it gets resolved and sometimes I just put all the links in a blog post.
In this case the side bar has a link to Bo's YouTube account, but an inline link to the viedo they are talking about, or an embed of the video would have been better.

Reply | Original | Permalink | TweetHere are the reasons:
1. They don't care
2. They don't have the money to pay people to make sure links are included
3. They don't have a process in place to make sure authors include URL's in stories
4. They want to increase 'time on site' so they do not want to send people awayI've been fighting this battle for years with the Boston Globe.
