Scobleizer: It’s about being part of the conversation

    you can hate talking about it all you want, but at some point your investors and your sponsors are going to want to see some return and want you to prove your business model. (If one even exists). You can only ignore the elephant in the room for so long.

    Here's what I notice recently:

    Facebook receives an offer of nearly a billion dollars from Yahoo.

    Facebook opens its doors to the world

    Google video and Youtube spread to users around the world like wildfire. Hell there's a video from Japan on the Youtube home page now.

    Not so recently: Ebay purchases Skype for 2.6 billion

    Google buys advertising rights for nearly a billion (my numbers might be off, but the dollars were significant)

    Starbucks builds their vision around creating a third place


    More than conversation we value connection and collaboration both personal and professional. Whether I chat with friends, comment on a blog post or share my third space with a coffee house full of complete strangers and soon to be friends I seek the connection that comes from conversation.

    Thanks for encouraging this conversation.

    Another observation that furthers our need for conversation: http://www.masternewmedia.org/news/2006/09/29/n...

    “The basic idea I had was that there’s a new social movement emerging which is really about extending the realm of participation to the whole of life. We live in a representative democracy, which says you can vote every four years, and choose which people will exercise power on your behalf… now we’re building tools and resources which say everybody needs to be involved, and everybody should have a voice.”

    Good question, Robert.

    I'm slowly starting a conversation between the film / television world and the vlogosphere as I celebrate the technicians of both worlds.

    What holds me back is the idea that producers are scared shitless that folks like me might divulge something dangerous from the set. It's a walk on thin ice to capture media about film production without the traditional control producers exert.

    I think my material safe because I focus on the technicians behind the lens. Maybe. Maybe not.

    Try suffering through the MSN video advertisements forced down your throat by a development team that didn't sit down and try to watch 10 "V-DEO's in a row.
    Try watching 20 and see how disgusted you get.
    Borat vs Usbakistan ... see how creative advertising works. It takes more grey matter to make peoples choices go "CLICK". It got the attention of the whole world now that is "advertising". Maybe just maybe Bloggs may become the new superbowl for advertisers.
    If the advertisements were creative enough;people would be clicking in to see them all over the internet.
    This comment was funded by Dale at Starbucks Louisville, Ky. Thanks for the coffee Dale. LoL ;)
    WOW "That was easy!". There must be Ford in my Future.
    No not Betty. Get them to get creative. Heck I even went to ZE a couple of times becau-zzzzzzzzzeeee he is creative. 6 advertisements in the last 5 lines. Find the correct # of advertisements in this blogg and win blahh (Free 5 day software trial). just a thought.
