I recently visited good friend Robert Scoble, his lovely wife Maryam and their family in Half Moon Bay. It was an overdue trip, one without an agenda. It was a fleeting opportunity to catch up, talk a bit about the latest book, and also an excuse to have a fireside chat, literally, on the grounds [...]

When you're working to keep a startup company alive, bad ideas have bigger conquences. With that in mind, I thought this article by Robert Scoble had some very helpful tips for startups. It's a list of things startup commonly do wrong. One example...They spend money on the wrong things. I’ve been in more than one startup that had bad chairs and small screens for their engineers but they had an...

So it's been nearly 10 days since Foursquare launched its social mobile game 'ground assault' into 50 more cities, including a bunch of European ones. But what I'd like to know is who's actually using it here in Europe? Because, you see, Europeans are already quite well served by location based mobile applications like Qype , the various localised versions of Yelp, and other startups like Rummble...

The Gillmor Gang convened Wednesday to ponder the last several weeks of events loosely contained in a discussion of the next generation Web operating system. Three major announcements set the table for this Thanksgiving edition: Google's ChromeOS, Microsoft's Silverlight 4, and salesforce's Chatter collaboration platform. The last might be pigeonholed as enterprise Twitter, but Marc Benioff's position...

The United States, starting tomorrow, will be spending the next four days celebrating the Holiday of the Big After Turkey Dinner Snooze. Which means that things will probably be pretty quiet on the tech front when it comes to things to write about (as long as Robert Scoble can keep quiet for the next few [...]

[Mama Lucy Thornton and some Tweetsgiving recipients. Photo by Tim Llewellyn] Almost any author will tell you the same thing. There are parts to their books that become part of them. There are moments we write about, which change the paths we take in life. When I was writing Naked Conversations, it was the realization that blogs were part of something much bigger than another business marketing tool....

Couldn't resist this ( @scobleizer 's idea i think). So Windows 7 is apparently the business . Everything that Vista wasn't. But that OS X was....

If you go to Robert Scoble's blog , to the right you'll see a widget he has added that streams tweets from people on his Twitter lists. And in a round-about way, this is one of the reasons why I am spending less time on Twitter these days. As many people do, I use Twitter primarily as a tool to connect with other people. Now for the most part, I'd always had some so-called unwritten rules about my...

Wow, I’m sensing another TechMeme Storm rising (and a certain analyst would call it a circle j***, but that’s another matter). Robert Scoble says he was wrong when he said In 2006 he wouldn’t use any news aggregator or feeds that aren’t full text . I think the Scobleizer is wrong now that he says he was wrong. :-) His key argument is that his reading habits changed, he relies...

As part of the latest trend in online advertising, ad companies are paying normal people to pimp companies or products to their online friends or followers. According to the New York Times , companies think that consumers will be more likely to trust the opinions of their Facebook friends than they are a faceless commercial -- even if those "opinions" are formed with the promise of financial...

A comment on Brian Solis' blog post this morning about the decline in Twitter's numbers turned into this post, in which I explore feelings about Twitter that I didn't even know I had:-) But the discussion about Twitter advertising has also prompted some of these thoughts, which I've been discussing with @scobleizer over on his [...]
