– Esther Dyson talk
(Yahoo is “intelligent design”; Google is “blind evolution.”)
–
CES Storylines (nice quote: “By the time Vista hits the street… it will be less
about the OS itself, and more about the vast array of services surrounding it.”)
–
Consumer Internet, Digital Media and Technology Conferences for 2006 (very useful
list)
– Dave Winer defines
Reading Lists: “Mashups” of feeds, forming virtual publications (I’m really excited
about what Dave comes up with for Reading Lists!)
– Neil Budde from
Yahoo News talks to paidcontent (“I think the area that’s growing and is most
interesting, particularly in news, is behavioral.”)
–
Shore: Neil Budde Looks at Content Blown to Bits by Users (“This will be an exciting
year in news aggregation, and tools and deals being developed by Yahoo will be a key part
of that excitement.”)
– It’s all
in the mix (Guardian article about mashups… I liked this quote from Ben Metcalf:
“rather than simply combining data feeds, the future of mashups is with people providing
interfaces that enable you to display data in ways you wouldn’t normally see it.”)
– TechCrunch:
The Memeorandum Hunters (Excellent round-up by Mike. I’ll be investigating some of
these in-depth soon…)
– Mark Evans
ponders Memeorandum’s next move (“I suspect he’s trying to build a viable business
rather than positioning memeorandum for an acquisition by Google, Yahoo, Microsoft,
etc.”)
– Don
Dodge on the meme trackers (“There will be a few winners who make a lot of money, and
a lot of “also rans” who will fade away. “)
