  2. What made me cry: Microsoft's World Wide Telescope

    Lots of people are asking me questions about what made me cry at Microsoft a few weeks ago. If I told you "a telescope" you'd make fun of me, right? Tell me I'm lame and that I don't deserve to be a geek and that I should run away and join the circus, right? Well, that's what I saw. Or, more accurately, the WorldWide Telescope.

      What a joke. Typical Microsoft Hype. Once everyone has it downloaded I'm sure they will start charging for it as usual. Very poor resolution. We are only 250,000 miles from the moon and in planet view that is the best they can do ? Google would let us look at all the debris we left in the Sea of Tranquility. The resolution of Earth isn't 1/100th as good as Google Earth. I am not impressed at all…..Thanks for nothing Bill !!

    2. Dave, you hit the nail on the head.

      How is it possible that most of the world doesn't 'get' RSS or feeds, but when you look at it in a very simple way ("people see shit other people are doing in the Feed, and then they click on that shit.") it becomes crystal clear.

      Thank you for a fantastic observation.

      I think the more that people become used to feeds (in their email, on their PDAs or on the web) the more they'll be addicted. I am, having worked with Attensa for a few months on their enterprise 2.0 RSS platform.

      The cool thing? From safe, inside the firewall, you can have the same kind of interaction and attention that millions of people turn to Facebook every day for - what's the shit today?

      Cheers, and thanks for your perspective.

    4. Hey Dave,

      I like your insight on the dynamics of the feed. I don't think the platform in itself is anything unique or special as it's just another Web 2.0 API, but creating a news stream of all of your friends' activities is indeed revolutionary. I remember the uproar it caused initially, but it's become the finger to the pulse of Facebook.

      In the future it's foreseeable that Facebook might develop into a peer news network (i.e. news about your peers) more than a peer communication service. I wonder what kind of social engineering impact it might have...

      It's hard to believe I forgot to reference Jim McGee's excellent Weblog as my backup brain. He wrote this five years ago, and I think there are a lot of connections to the above. The shortcoming, of course, is that it doesn't act as a Me Collector, it's more of a place for Me Documentation.

      And back at Amy's original post, commenters have mentioned hanzo:web, a service that is geared around saving your web content. And Dandelife that collects lifestreams into one place.

      Sorry I did not make it to Chicago and Blogher. Bah!

      As I read this post, I was struck at how much it addresses a challenge we are looking at from a communities of practice perspective - how to manage one's multimembership in many communities and networks. I've tagged it multimembership to keep in my growing collection!

      Thanks, Nancy. I missed you too - I was hoping you would be among the many people I would get to meet at the conference. C'est la vie.

      Interesting thought -- extending the "Me Collector" to a "We Connector." Obviously, the requirements would be different. But, I think some of the core principals are related. Look at how many places people discuss "communities."

      Another piece of the puzzle is Google Reader. It's a typical web-based RSS reader except that you can tag content to re-share with the click of one button.

      Then, anyone that goes to your personalized share URL can see all of the stuff from everywhere that you tagged to share.

      It doesn't really have the discovery aspect (unless you set up a Google Alert for "Jack Vinson" and then use the RSS feed to track it), but it's another step closer.

      I agree with you about the "me" part. I want the same.

      Ironically what is missing here is what I have said elsewhere.

      It just dawned on me that I never tend to post what I blog to delicious. I was reading what you, Amy Gahran and Robert Scoble wrote as I was writing a post over at lockergnome.

      I am also dealing with two abandoned kittens that distract me often. Then I notice they have fleas. Then I have to bath them. Then I notice my couch has fleas. Then I have to rush to work and post what I was writing...

      The result is I completely forget to mention what I was actually saying and doing at another blog. I don't see any trackback regarding what I said elsewhere here. I think, IMHO, it might have made my poor communication better. A Me collector would have saved me.

      I also missed the comments here that were made after mine. It seems I need to hit refresh to make them show. What a mess. Not the point I was trying to make at all. I agree and want the same thing.

      I also agree on the privacy issue. Can there not be some simple way to make at easy as switching desktop views in linnux? Heck, I think it would even be great if, provided both parties agreed, to make all aware of any e-mails sent back and forth regarding the topic. Even if the case be missing the mark, as in my case, it still is "me". BTW -->
