One thought that comes to mind after reading it is whether you should be looking for new tech companies or technologies. I have found that engaging with a passionate entrepreneur or geek or whatever always leads to great insights. You might try (although you do that often already ) to put focus on the person in the story you tell, instead of the technological capabilities that are being developed. Why is he building it, what makes him tick, where did the idea come from etc. ;-)</div>\

In a discussion a couple of weeks ago on FriendFeed about the merits of FriendFeed vs RSS readers, I pointed out that I follow a mere 50 or so feeds on Google Reader.  My RSS feed provides me a much more diverse body information, (even though my feeds are very tech and photography centric) than what I am seeing discussed on FriendFeed.   I often read things first in my RSS feed and then here about them several times again on FriendFeed.  I still find value in using FriendFeed for the discussions about topics of interest after the news breaks elsewhere.  I also, as do you, find plenty of interesting articles on obscure blogs that will never make it to Digg, or Tehmeme, etc that I would never hear about if I only followed the \'mainstream\' news aggregaters.</div>\

I had a little "old school" e-mail conversation with a search-engine "start-up". This small company is working for nine years now on a search engine which brings relevance, not only results. This man doesn\'t want to talk to the PR people  instead he wants to focus on what he wants to deliver to us. He doesn\'t want to be hyped. He\'s taking the grassroots approach when things are ready. When people like it they wil talk about it. He\'s expecting somewhere at the end of the summer to go in private beta and he really appreciate it when people get him personal feedback. And be honest, what kind of innovations have we seen the last couple of years with search engines? Pages full of not relevant results.  Do we really care about companies who claim to be more scalable, to have a bigger index? I don\'t because I want relevant results.<br>I stick to the people who are really passionate about something they are working on.<br>Remains me one question. how do you go the Long Tail? How do you find the interesting stuff which gets never to Digg or Techmeme? There\'s a lot of interesting information on the internet, but how are you (we) able to notice this?</div>\

I could only imagine how many pitches you get. There is a place for good and reputable PR. If it gets noticed and you don\'t have a completely crap product you\'re golden. But you have to earn it and not burn the folks who pick you up.  It\'s hard to get noticed, but we were lucky on our private beta to get picked up by TC, RWW and Mash among others, (but we intentionally chose a slow news day July 3rd - to increase our chances and we lucked out with great coverage).<br><br>To the second part of your post, I completely prefer face-to-face interactions of any kind rather than over phone or webex for meetings and especially introductions. That\'s why while I was in San Francisco last week I popped down to your tweetup/dinner and attended the TechCrunch party (met you ever so briefly). Just doing those things allowed me to meet people and have real conversations (even if they were brief) that were far more valuable than any press release or email from me that probably would have been ignored. As I am newcomer on the scene coming from another industry. I am essentially a nobody right now in this industry and I know it. It\'s especially hard if you aren\'t in the valley (we\'re based in Atlanta), but there are things you can do. You\'ve got to start somewhere and we are in it for the long haul. :)</div>\

The power of PR and marketing makes the success of "real economy" products for decades... even bad products: take the Phone as an example. I\'m not saying it\'s a bad product, I\'m just saying that the Apple marketing is amazing to create a huge hype around it.<br><br>I also think that this increased power of marketing on the Web came with Web 2.0 and the User Generated Content: the value of a website is determined by the contribution of the users: it starts with very limited content/value so it needs PR to initiate the UGC pump.<br><br>Thankfully, compared to the "normal" economy, the web is full of very passionate and critical voices that minimize the power of marketing. This post is a prime example. Thanks again!</div>\

One of the main reasons for this: They don\'t have good PR, and no one -- with the exception of a few journals like Tech Review or academic blogs like Terra Nova -- is really tracking and discussing what they are doing.<br><br>Ian Lamont<br>Managing Editor<br>The Industry Standard</div>\

Use the word \'cloud\' in a conversation with normal people.<br><br>Here\'s someone I think you\'d love interviewing: Harry Webber. (Disclosure: I\'m working with him on something called the Institute for the Advanced Practice of Advertising, a nonprofit think tank we\'re recruiting ad people for.)<br><br>Harry is a traditional ad guy -- he\'s in the Clio Awards Hall of Fame for lines like "A mind is a terrible thing to waste." But he\'s also a very solid web 2.0 guy, so he sits exactly at the crossroads of old and new communications. Here\'s a post from his weekly column that shows the contrast between old and new: <a href="http://www.madisonavenew.com/mad187.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.madisonavenew.com/mad187.html</a></div>\

Check out NeXplore Search (<a href="http://www.NeXplore.com" rel="nofollow">www.NeXplore.com</a>) vs. Cuil (<a href="http://www.cuil.com" rel="nofollow">www.cuil.com</a>) for the month of September using whatever website traffic comparison tool you prefer -- Google Trends, Alexa, Compete, etc. Cuil’s focus -- more algorithmic complexity. NeXplore’s focus -- a more visually engaging and productive search results page. Seems pretty clear which approach real folk prefer...</div>\
