(Please note that these are strictly my impressions of how your focus changed, so you may not agree)<br><br>When I first came upon you, you were fighting your fight to break down the walls and humanize the Redmond giant.  You tried to show a company that was working hard to make progress, but recognizing that the corporate structures in place was getting in the way.  Then you first moved over to podtech, and (re-)discovered how much of the world existed that wasn't microsoft-centric.  Over the past couple months, your focus has seemingly shifted over to \"social\" and \"wow\" products.  Twitter, Facebook, Apple, Pownce, et all.  Mobile products, photowalking and social networking events and applications which add value to \"real\" life.<br><br>Unfortunately for me (and I doubt I'm alone), the place you had your biggest contribution was in finding products/companies/concepts which added value to my \"work\" life - things which made it easier for me to do my job - or to provide hints on where the next trend was heading.  That's where I found value.  That, and you welcomed those that challenged your viewpoints and started conversations - often times I learned as much reading the comments as I did reading the original posts, some times more.<br><br>Nowadays?  Not so much.<br><br>The social networking stuff is all well and good.  But most of the social networks you link to are blocked at work because they distract people from *working*.  And when I get home, I don't want to spend all my time attached to my computer building my social networks and finding more stuff to read - my rss feeds give me enough noise to distract me over the course of the day.  I don't need more noise.  On the contrary - I need less.<br><br>The Apple fanboy stuff - fine.  But does it add value to my day?  Not really.  There's not a Apple store within 100 miles, nor is there a demand for experience using their products.  Yeah, I have an Ipod, but I'm not in awe of it - it's a tool which does a job acceptably.<br><br>As for the extraneous conversations - you seem to still be as engaging in the comment areas of the posts I read, but there seems to be much more of an edge to them.  Kind of a \"if we don't believe, we must be against you\" vibe.  Now, I'll admit, I don't read the comments as much because what you've been covering doesn't interest me as much, so it may just be a matter of perception.<br><br>As for why the uproar?  First of all, you set yourself up for failure by stating on your post \"The only reason you\u2019ll watch these two videos is because you trust me to add value to your lives.\"  Seems to me that you're saying that if I don't watch these and believe them, I'm going to miss somethimg.<br><br>But the biggest issue is it was comparing apples to oranges.  How can a social tool help me do my job better?  Short answer - it can't.  If anything, it'll distract me with other noise, and make it harder for me to find what I need.  But I can go to Google, do a simple search and within a page or so, I've found my answer.  Thirty seconds or less and I'm moving on - that adds value to my day.<br><br>How would these tools you've been covering lately help me do a day to day job?  Well, if they're blocked, they won't.  Or if they're like Twitter, they'll add more noise and I'll find myself ignoring those that twitter and I've found that some that used to post quality concepts to blogs on a semi-regular are now twittering useless items, and I've even stopped visiting them because they've been twittering more often then blogging, and the value they used to add to my day is now almost nil because I have to filter out the noise.<br><br>Don't take this the wrong way, but do you want to add value to my life again?  Show me ways to utilize all these social networks and tools without getting swallowed up by the extraneous noise.  Show me how they add value to my \"work\" life without distracting me from what I'm supposed to do - work.<br><br>But please keep going.  Yes, you may not cover as much of what I find of value, but from time to time, there's a nugget which keeps me checking in.  And you may be providing value to others.

Frankly, most of the world couldn\'t give a crap about Dave Winer and Danny Sullivan. Most of the people who went after you are nobodies. Wired magazine\'s content gets worse and worse so who cares about them as well. In the valley, we tend to get wrapped up in our echo chamber. Most of the world couldn\'t care less about any of this.<br><br>Here\'s my advice for what its worth:<br><br>-In the future bounce theories off other people to get their take. If they agree then make it a collaborative effort. Just think if you could have pulled guys like Dave Winer and Danny Sullivan into the mix and they agreed with you on this. Think of how powerful it would have been for the three of you to present the theory together. At least the Valley would be paying attention.<br><br>-Forget Calacanis. People are sick of him. Anytime you introduce him into the picture its going to automatically piss off a lot of people who will come after you for just that one thing. I think you need to distance yourself from Jason.<br><br>-Make sure you have your facts and stats straight - valleywag sucks but they legitimately took you down on this point.<br><br>-People are not as excited about techmeme and Facebook as you think they are.<br><br>-RSS isn\'t that cool. Its only been adopted by 5% of Internet users. RSS may never cross the chasm. Its time for technologist to realize that.<br><br>-On an off topic note, I think your star is much brighter than Podtech. Podtech is working against you at this point in your career. I hope you are thinking about your options here.<br><br>For what its worth, keep up the good work and good attitude.

However, I believe that there is a significant portion of your userbase that are happy with your decision to use communication technologies like kyte. Your channel had over 600 simultaneous viewers and chatters for more than 12 hours, thousands of chat messages, non-stop conversations for the last 3 days; so many that we put in a hot patch to disable the "new chat" audio alerts by default. Your channel has been embedded on dozens of websites, connecting all readers to one "Scoble network". Furthermore, you and your readers/viewers have given us superb feedback on what we need to focus on improving in our product (as mentioned several times, we are working on an updated design with improved usability).<br><br>In response to the kyte vs PodTech questions, kyte is a communication platform and not an online video player. I think you\'ve already done an excellent job of showing that comparing kyte.tv to PodTech is apples to oranges: <a href="http://scobleizer.com/2007/08/20/kytetv-vs-podtechnet" rel="nofollow">http://scobleizer.com/2007/08/20/kytetv-vs-podt...</a><br><br>BTW, Nokia announced today the 3G version of the N95 for the U.S.. I am having the pleasure to use such a device and it is a whole new experience to use online services with connection speeds &gt;1Mbps.<br><br>Daniel<br><a href="http://www.kyte.tv" rel="nofollow">www.kyte.tv</a></div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-9689299" class="dsq-comment-message">Robert -<br><br>I\'ve been a long time reader of your site, so I\'ve seen the transitions in your focus over the years.  (Please note that these are strictly my impressions of how your focus changed, so you may not agree)<br><br>When I first came upon you, you were fighting your fight to break down the walls and humanize the Redmond giant.  You tried to show a company that was working hard to make progress, but recognizing that the corporate structures in place was getting in the way.  Then you first moved over to podtech, and (re-)discovered how much of the world existed that wasn\'t microsoft-centric.  Over the past couple months, your focus has seemingly shifted over to "social" and "wow" products.  Twitter, Facebook, Apple, Pownce, et all.  Mobile products, photowalking and social networking events and applications which add value to "real" life.<br><br>Unfortunately for me (and I doubt I\'m alone), the place you had your biggest contribution was in finding products/companies/concepts which added value to my "work" life - things which made it easier for me to do my job - or to provide hints on where the next trend was heading.  That\'s where I found value.  That, and you welcomed those that challenged your viewpoints and started conversations - often times I learned as much reading the comments as I did reading the original posts, some times more.<br><br>Nowadays?  Not so much.<br><br>The social networking stuff is all well and good.  But most of the social networks you link to are blocked at work because they distract people from *working*.  And when I get home, I don\'t want to spend all my time attached to my computer building my social networks and finding more stuff to read - my rss feeds give me enough noise to distract me over the course of the day.  I don\'t need more noise.  On the contrary - I need less.<br><br>The Apple fanboy stuff - fine.  But does it add value to my day?  Not really.  There\'s not a Apple store within 100 miles, nor is there a demand for experience using their products.  Yeah, I have an Ipod, but I\'m not in awe of it - it\'s a tool which does a job acceptably.<br><br>As for the extraneous conversations - you seem to still be as engaging in the comment areas of the posts I read, but there seems to be much more of an edge to them.  Kind of a "if we don\'t believe, we must be against you" vibe.  Now, I\'ll admit, I don\'t read the comments as much because what you\'ve been covering doesn\'t interest me as much, so it may just be a matter of perception.<br><br>As for why the uproar?  First of all, you set yourself up for failure by stating on your post "The only reason you’ll watch these two videos is because you trust me to add value to your lives."  Seems to me that you\'re saying that if I don\'t watch these and believe them, I\'m going to miss somethimg.<br><br>But the biggest issue is it was comparing apples to oranges.  How can a social tool help me do my job better?  Short answer - it can\'t.  If anything, it\'ll distract me with other noise, and make it harder for me to find what I need.  But I can go to Google, do a simple search and within a page or so, I\'ve found my answer.  Thirty seconds or less and I\'m moving on - that adds value to my day.<br><br>How would these tools you\'ve been covering lately help me do a day to day job?  Well, if they\'re blocked, they won\'t.  Or if they\'re like Twitter, they\'ll add more noise and I\'ll find myself ignoring those that twitter and I\'ve found that some that used to post quality concepts to blogs on a semi-regular are now twittering useless items, and I\'ve even stopped visiting them because they\'ve been twittering more often then blogging, and the value they used to add to my day is now almost nil because I have to filter out the noise.<br><br>Don\'t take this the wrong way, but do you want to add value to my life again?  Show me ways to utilize all these social networks and tools without getting swallowed up by the extraneous noise.  Show me how they add value to my "work" life without distracting me from what I\'m supposed to do - work.<br><br>But please keep going.  Yes, you may not cover as much of what I find of value, but from time to time, there\'s a nugget which keeps me checking in.  And you may be providing value to others.  Plus, you can\'t succeed or fail, unless you try.  Right?</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-9689297" class="dsq-comment-message">Robert, you said it best with juicy fruit 1 -- that people perceive Google as noisier. Whether it is or isn\'t, no one can say definitively. We don\'t have commonly accepted metrics for relevancy. And I know people will say oh, it\'s not as good as it used to be -- but people often forget that they demand more of a search engine over time, looking for things today they wouldn\'t have tried in the past. The bar keeps getting raised.<br><br>In terms of the outcry, my juicy fruits were two in total: your misunderstanding and slandering of SEO and your way-too-much enthusiasm that a major search engine like Google will just get wiped out by sprinkling Facebook social goodness into the search mix.<br><br>My previous post covered some of the past attempts here and mainly warns that it\'s not new that social can be helpful, but it\'s not likely to be a revolution, nor is Google likely enough to be stupid enough to let social pass it by. I\'m not angered by your suggestions. It\'s just that it\'s not new, unique, and you worked up to it by not providing enough history or background to state your facts. And that you spend like two minutes on it after I had to watch 36.<br><br>On the SEO front, I\'ve just had enough of people equating SEO with spam. It is not, and you pushed that idea again. Google doesn\'t consider SEO spam, OK? I\'ll quote Google:<br><br>"SEO is an abbreviation for "search engine optimizer." Many SEOs provide useful services for website owners, from writing copy to giving advice on site architecture and helping to find relevant directories to which a site can be submitted."<br><br><a href="http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=35291" rel="nofollow">http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/an...</a><br><br>There are shady SEO tactics and shady SEO firms, just as there are shady PR firms, shady doctors, shady lawyers, shady plumbers and so on. But Google actively engages with SEOs (as do the other search engines) because they can indeed help content that should be found better in search engines get found better, not through trickery but understanding that search engines see content almost like a unique browser. Indeed, what you called a "warfront" isn\'t with SEOs and Google. It\'s with spammers and Google. SEO is not the same as spam, and that\'s how it came out in your video.<br><br>Flip it around. If you\'d said we needed blog resistant search engines because bloggers pollute the results with relatively poor, badly written content, you\'d have bloggers in general upset at you. Same to for any industry that gets stereotyped.</div>\
