Seesmic, Friendfeed and Twitter next to each other in a test version of Twhirl. Adding tons of Friendfeed experience improvements in there, Marco rocks.

This might get me back into Twhirl.

needs pownce and jaiku support too. Then it will be the total solution
- Adrian
from twhirl
yes... when?
- Mike Wills
@LouPaglia - correct, Seesmic is not integrated with Twirl desktop app yet

Definitely scary given the lack of monetization in such services. Sure, entertainment can be a real business - but the company should know how to turn it into one.

Hi Robert, could not find it in Techmeme, who did they raise from? Interesting...

being in a bubble and seeing companies over funded is totally different. startup overdosis will calm over time. but there is no industry collapse ahead. ad dollars, ecommerce and internet penetration are progressing. so for me no worries

A small bubble. Not as bad as the Dot Com bubble.
- Michael McGimpsey
from twhirl
Well let's see, property and stock markets are down in many countries and there is constant talk of a world economic slowdown. If the tech sector isn't in the same situation, all this is bound to have some flow-on effect sooner rather than later. No, I don't think there is a bubble.
- jjprojects
jj: yes, but there are still a lot of companies who have funding that the overall market will not reward. I think there's a bit of a bubble in that there's a lot of people who have gotten funded by VC firms who haven't yet felt the more general economic pain that's out there.
- Robert Scoble
Amazing....We have a solution that fits perfectly in the current economic situation and these guys get 8 million?
- Brad Nickel
Of course we are in a bubble. that's the way our economy works now. The reason is that we have too many unregulated speculators in the markets today.
- Bob Blunk
I would call this "statistical occurrence." It is pure statistics, not a bubble. There are many samples of similar nature which occur. The higher the size of the sample (overcrowded online entertainment market) the more likely is the occurrence of a highly-improbable event. Funding such a startup as redux would otherwise be improbable. good thing about stats is that 90+% of it is there to support the few.

Im confused about this. For instance, I've noticed on many occasions where you basically say something like: "Come follow me over on FF, the conversation is over there". Isnt that the same thing? Trying to get people to come follow you? I dont mean to be critical, just trying to understand.
- Andrew Baron
:D I unblocked him just to verify, and yes it was him!!
- directeur
from NoiseRiver
Somewhat relatedly, it's weird that I didn't think twice when Louis Gray asked us to digg a story for him. But in hindsight if it wasn't someone I knew, I would've considered it spamming/gaming digg. Interesting.
- trextor
He needs another pole to broadcast actually, he won't participate in the discussions. I hate this kind of mentality.
- directeur

Andrew I don't remember ever asking you to follow me. If I ever do, yes, that should earn me a block. There is a big difference between saying "here is a conversation" and "follow me."

I'm sure many startups would LOVE to go on FastCompany.tv, but there's no possible way that you could keep up with the the sheer volume of them, is there?

So Robert, when can we get you out in Salt Lake City? I'll show you around to some cool new and established startups. We've got quite the scene, Geek lunches and dinners weekly, events going on often.

Morgan: I just need a pitch. I only have a few slots a month, August is being planned now. It's easier if you come to San Francisco, or are here already, but I'll be traveling around quite a bit this year (trips to Seattle, Washington DC, Los Angeles, New York, China, Amsterdam, Boston, Paris are already on my board. So, why should you be on?
- Robert Scoble
Salt Lake City? Right now I don't have any plans, sorry. Can you come out to SF?
- Robert Scoble
Hey Robert, This sounds really interesting. I am in the midst of launching my startup and we would like to work with you on Fast Company TV. What are the next steps. btw the site is Mugasha.com

Email. scobleizer@gmail.com. My calendar is public and is here: http://www.google.com/calenda... -- that timeframe isn't very good, though, which is why I'm already planning out August (heck, most of September is already planned, for that matter). Sigh.

from twhirl
Oh, that is cutting it close. You'll probably make it, but that's within the golden hour, so that's tough. Do you need to return a car? Or do you just want us to drop you off?
- Robert Scoble
You can just drop me off - I don't have a car. Tell me where to meet you. I have one small suitcase and my carryon - is that okay?
- Jesse Stay
from twhirl
hey robert - thanks for the response. you should have us on because we're a small company making tons of online video for a wide range of businesses with a new video ad format and real revenue to boot. i'll email you at the above. we're in SF which is nice.
