I don't really like Olbermann since I think he's quickly becoming the left's version of Bill O'Reilly, but he's dead on the money here. It's sick the way it's been used as a campaign platform. - Cyndy

It would be impossible for campaigns to NOT use one of the most significant events of the decade. THat event has shaped our policies, shaped the world and continues to shape our hopes and fears. How can it be ignored? - Soulhuntre from twhirl

That isn't to say I support its use as a knee jerk symbol - but it was significant, and will continue to effect our politics. - Soulhuntre from twhirl

I saw this live last night and I have to say his commentary was spot on. Crass and transparent are the ways I'd describe the RNC and Giuliani in particular with their use of 9/11 TM for political gain. - sean808080

I haven't seen it, but am quite certain I don't agree. This man is a human hoax. - eggsy

I agree it's been far too politicized for too long. I wish Olbermann had stopped there. I think he went too far, though, turning McCain's rheotric back on him. If he'd just called him out on the ridiculousness of the claims instead of painting McCain as aiding terrorists I would have been much more on-board with the commentary. The last part was distorted and spun too hard to make a point. - mikepk

Reverence for 9/11 didn't keep Keith from flogging the "Jersey Girls" in 2004. A sad hack. - Oldengrey (Jay)

@Michael I agree... I thought he was good until there. McCain's claim is just stupid, it's enough to stop at that. - Jason Carreira

[Sorry, Felicia, given that I already subjected you to this rant]. Where is the UNLIKE button when I want it? I really really dislike itunes. Why can't they make it available somewhere not-evil like Amazon MP3 or Magnatune or anything else that isn't DRM'd to hell? No, I do not have an iPod. No, I do not want an iPod. Bah humbug :-( - Adam Lasnik

Adam, it's available as iTunes Plus....ie AAC format but without the DRM - Mike Lambert

I *want* to buy it, I really do, but not from iTunes... I just want plain old mp3 files. Or, in a perfect world, flac files. - Nathan Howell

Nathan, you can convert the files into mp3's from withing iTunes. Works just fine (and it's perfectly legal), I just did so and I'm listening to it with winamp! It's amazing, everybody sounds even better! - Laz

Yay for the soundtrack! Now if the DVD would get released fairly soon! - Joel

Yeah, I know ppl don't like iTunes. I believe it is DRM free though, so that's a plus! I'm sure there will be a CD with the DVD, although I haven't heard that personally, just an assumption. - Felicia

@Nathan - send me the money and I'll convert my copy to MP3 for you ;^D - Timothy Griffin

"I'm sure there will be a CD with the DVD" ... That's what I'm hoping! ... If they tell u something, pleaseeeeee let us know! - Dani Figueiredo

Ok, I still don't like iTunes, but I bought the soundtrack anyway. My iPhone has put me on a slippery slope. ;-) - Nathan Howell

doesn't the name "chrome" doom them to always have a chrome front end on the thing? the name needs work. - robert steburg

Robert, I agree. The comic explains why they called it this, but I think it has bad connotations. - Rafe Needleman from twhirl

Veronica, that's why I see no big deal of this, as it's more evolutionary rather than revolutionary. Definitely, not 'blue ocean' ;) Maybe that's Google's operating principles. Taking existing product ideas and make them 'awesomely' better. They definitely succeed with search engine. They're using the same principles with Knol and web browser. - Yung-Hui Lim

Will Google Chrome have any kind of plug-in architecture? Last thing I want to see is hundreds of forks of the Chrome code just because it's open source... - Jonathan Wong from twhirl

Yes, there's a section in the comic about plugins and security - Rafe Needleman from twhirl

do Batman and Robin feature? Wonder where the comic concept came from - Steven Livingstone-Pérez from twhirl

:( - Mona Nomura

even if we accept the daughter was hers, her actions are beyond bizarre - Duncan Riley

Where's the documentation? - Jim McCusker

Here's an article from an Anchorage paper: http://www.newsminer.com/news... keep in mind that no one knew she was pregnant until March, when she announced she was 7 months pregnant. - Anika

Jim, what documentation? her timing in terms of travel, pregnancy etc are all public record. - Duncan Riley

there's no documentation, but there's allegation: http://bit.ly/1mC5DB - judge for yourself but remember not to jump to conclusions. - ~C4Chaos

Wowzers. Beyond belief. - Tsega Dinka

Brilliant! - Sean Kelly

May not be relevant as SHE may not have been pregnant. There is significant circumstantial evidence that the baby may in fact belong to her 16yo daughter. See here for an interesting take on this http://www.dailykos.com/storyon... - Jeff P. Henderson

Ugh. Again, all based on anecdotal evidence and photographs. How would you feel if this was Michelle Obama we were talking about? Get a grip. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

Mark, looking at the evidence you've got to say that it's at least highly strange. Seriously, look at the pics of her at 7mths - Duncan Riley

Anecdotal evidence or not, it is still highly strange if you look at the pics. - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF

in all fairness the photo which includes the daughter where she seems pregant was supposedely taken in 2006 according to digitaljournal. Don't know that anything is official. If the campaign would simply deal with this, then ppl might focus on the real issue of the abuse of power charge. - R. Ferguson

actually McCain already has been dealing dirt to Michelle Obama. The real story here is, McCain's surprise VP choice was made without doing a background check. So much for his "experience"... more like an example of senility! - Indio Apache from twhirl

Nothing stated on this thread is a provable fact, including Steve's little potshot at the end. Photos of other highly strange things? Bigfoot in a freezer, the chronology of Britney Spears' supposedly fake to real to fake to real boobs, and the loch ness monster. All this does is devolve the whole political process to the tabloids. If that's the type of politics you want, you're welcome to them. I thought the goal was informed and factual debate, though. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

Mark- That's the point - we're trying to be informed. Not misinformed. - Steve Isaacs

I find it immensely ironic to hear republicans cry about provable facts, and about dirty campaigns! Bush and Reagan have yet to admit to one provable fact in 16 years of governance. mccain's mudslinging campaign is hardly an example of informed and factual debate. here's a provable fact: no fortune 500 companies go out an hire 72 year old CEOs, and try to sell them to their shareholders... more... - Indio Apache from twhirl

+ 20 to Steve - Lindsey is Fierce!

FYI. there are photos of Palin while pregnant. the photo time stamps are questionable but easy to explain, as i've noted on this thread - http://bit.ly/1mC5DB - i have no interest in spreading ugly rumors but i'm interested at getting to the truth. for your convenience, here's the link to the Flickr thread - http://bit.ly/2VxB9F - ~C4Chaos

I find it immensely asinine you assume that I'm a republican, Steve. I'm sick of it from both sides - I'm not a fan of the Obama is a Muslim conspiracy theories either, but I put up with that crap too. This is on that level. -400 to Steve and -30 to Lindsey for applauding him, since we're playing on this "Who's Line.." scoring system. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

no need to talk partisan politics. stick to the issue (rumor) at hand. here's another interesting take - http://bit.ly/3n1QTo - "There is quite the way-beyond-a-buzz happening on the internet over allegations that Trig Palin is not Todd and Sarah's child, but belongs to Bristol Palin and an unknown father. That's not how I've been hearing it for the last few months at all. As a matter-of-fact, I've been hearing that Trig is very much Todd and Sarah's child while Bristol Palin is actually pregnant NOW." - ~C4Chaos

I applauded him for the comment about Bush and Reagan not admitting to provable fact. Not about whether he assumed you were Republican - Lindsey is Fierce!

if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck its a duck. for example the ad-hominem attacks, instead of dealing with the issues I raised, this is right out of the republican playbook. - Indio Apache from twhirl

@Lindsey. You didn't specify. Your meaningless point assignment remains the same because, well, it's meaningless. As for you Steve, I think you need to go check a dictionary on ad hominem. I don't care about your issues, and I don't care who started it. *If* I were a republican, do I control the "Republican playbook" as you put it? Can I control other republicans? No. My original statement stands - this is all stupid and sleazy muckraking, not informed or intelligent debate. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

Here's something in response to your comment (and in response to Lindsey's applause): Reagan is dead, you dopes. He can't admit to anything. That's a provable fact. I'm taking another few hundred imaginary points away for that one. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

meh . . . it's late. I'm not here to start a fight, especially when I said nothing to you. All my conversations on here are civil and for the most part well thought out. I liked this because it was funny. I "applauded" Steve because he pointed out something important. I don't care how many points you take from me . . - Lindsey is Fierce!

Good grief, it seems obvious at this point. If those photographs were taken at the time it's said they were taken, then Palin lied, and the baby is her daughter's, not hers. That may be understandable from a human standpoint... no, forget that line of reasoning. The tabloid nature of this story is ENTIRELY Palin's fault, and the cultural/political culture of Alaska. She lied. She covered up. AND obviously McCain did not vet her. Who would want this mess on their ticket? Only a very reckless man. - Rick Powell

OK now that Palin has said her daughter is currently 5 months pregant, I think we can consider this rumor closed. - R. Ferguson

I agree, but I think the problem has more to do with a presenter's inability to understand the theater behind what they're doing. PPT does make people lazy, but I have a feeling even if their design department put together a kick ass Flash animation for it, they'd still end up just reading the bullet points. - Ciaoenrico

So what do you use Robert? - Brad Nickel

Brad: I stand up in front of the audience and talk off of an outline and I demo things when appropriate. If I had to use PowerPoint I'd do it like Larry Lessig does it. Lots of photos, very few words. Tell a story with visuals. - Robert Scoble

I moved to images and one thought per slide about 2 years ago. Works beautifully, but your method reminds me of my debate / extemp days. May have to think about going back there. Why do I need an image for every thought, when I am a persuasive public speaker, eh? Thanks. - Brad Nickel

Seriously. Since when did it become okay or useful to paraphrase what you're going to present and then project it on a screen while you present? My company has an Acceptable Usage policy for the Internet; we need one for PowerPoint. - Tim Harding

Yes, use PP in a manner that it doesn't look like PP. Like Paul Isakson's well-known presentation: http://tinyurl.com/37sbht. - Marko Bon

Look at Steve Jobs presentations. He has everything, including the theater. - Roberto Bonini

@Brad Nickel I like to think of the visuals as emotional buoys. Your speaking is the navigation but the reefs, as well as the moorings, need to be given some prominence. - Christopher Harley

I use Powerpoint to keep the flow of information going and to be sure I don't skip something important. Otherwise I might talk the whole hour and a half - being engaging and entertaining - but neglecting some key points.(I teach branding/marketing workshops for small hair salons) - Aura Mae

slides are *not* a script. if you need reminding about what you planned to say, a: use the presenters notes feature and b: this means you need to rehearse more. if you don't know your material inside and out how can you hope to get your message across to the audience? - h1ro

Yeah. I use SlideRocket now, with one eye-popping image and a few words of text per slide. If I have an important set of data to present, I'll put that on a slide--in a recent presentation on the workflow for my podcast, one slide listed all the software I use. But generally it's just an image and a thought. - Brent Newhall

Wonder how Edward Tufte feels about this update? He was always one to rail on PowerPoint (and especially the presentation style that it fostered.) Does this move presentation style in the right direction, or wrong direction? (I understand it allows you to "drill into" a slide to show information contributing to that slide... which is hard to do ad-hoc with linear slides.) - Wade Dorrell

Presenters notes only work if you are standing at your computer. For a workshop where the presenter is moving about the crowd, they are useless. Moving to the next slide is the cue to move to the next topic. Perhaps a workshop (interacting with the audience) is different than a speech which could be memorized? (I can rehearse my content, but it is hard to rehearse the unexpected input from each audience.) - Aura Mae

I still think LaTeX is the best for presentations: writing one couldn't be quickier, and the result, without being a "show", is accessible, readable, good looking and professional. - Marcos Marado from fftogo

this is like blaming wordpress for sucky blog postings and spam blogs. just because it is the most used software does not make it the reason for sucky presentations. (btw I just ordered the office 2007 although i despise the ribbon and what it does to my productivity. it is just that everything other offering of office software is so not on par with needed features for smart working. then again i am a power user who knows what she is doing.) - Nicole Simon

@aura you can never anticipate every possible audience interaction but depending on the content, you can use questions or interactions in an adaptive manner in order to bring the conversation back to your main talking points. you are on stage - you are in control of the conversation. if you are giving a presentation not a workshop. if it's a workshop style event then the rules change. if it's a presentation, you are there to move the audience to understand what you are trying to share - h1ro

@marcos the tool shouldn't matter - i think that people should practice talking with no props or visual aids at all like @robertscoble was mentioning. if you can't tell a story without a 50ft visual aid you might want to rethink your strategy :) - h1ro

@Nicole it doesn't make PowerPoint the reason for bad presentations, but whether the gravity it exerts as popular software has a bad (or good, or no) effect on presentation as a whole is a debate we can have. - Wade Dorrell

+1 h1ro. amen to that. ppt is a crutch. - .LAG liked that

I agree. I enjoy using PowerPoint for instructional pres but I never use it alone, its usually in connection with Camtasia or Impatica. But I've noticed that I will hear people say "O, yeah, I can do PowerPoint" and then you do see what they mean: It's every thing that Edward Tufte warns against and more. It just seems to me that they are not enjoying what you can do with the tool. They don't even explore it. And yes, most importantly you have to have a story to tell. You've got to storyboard. - Melanie Reed

Robert's talk at the New Media Expo was far more engaging because he *didn't* use PPT. - Chris Luckhardt

@Chris Luckhardt ...because Robert didn't use any presentation software at all, or because he did use software but it wasn't PPT? - Wade Dorrell

Wade: I didn't use any presentation software at all. Right. - Robert Scoble

@Robert Unclear whether the "Right" was sarcasm or affirmation. Thanks for the reply. Anyway, do you use any kind of resource to share data spoken & unspoken? (For example, do you have a person post to FF the data/URLs during a presentation? Do you do premeditated handouts of some of the data/URLs you think you'll mention?) Certainly someone in the audience can capture this for you, if... more... - Wade Dorrell

Long lost sisters brought together by a conference? :) - imabonehead

Scoble, definitely no - Duncan Riley

at the pace of 'internet memory', it's already gone, isn't it? - Jeremy Toeman

Peter (and Justin), good catch on the update of the policy. Mona previously noted that two PR people at SF MoMA said a statement was forthcoming. - Ontario Emperor

Robert - Bloggers are breaking stories almost half a day before most of the mainstream. I can think of at least 4 stories in the past two weeks that started on blogs and then hit the International press (There are a few exceptions). It's the perception of who'd reading it that really matters. That's certain to change over time. - Charlie Anzman

Mona has been following up the with SFMOMA to see when/if there will be a statment: http://pixelbits.wordpress.com/2008... - Justin Korn

@Scoble I call bullshit. High profile journalists have been kicked out of plenty of places and it's always a much bigger story to them than it is to anyone else. SFMOMA probably isn't going to say anything because they don't want to say "He was kicked out because one of our employees felt he was a perv, then he got argumentative". - Jason Carreira

Justin, saw that, but that was also yesterday. Another day and still silence - Duncan Riley

they are still reading my post, so I'm not sure if something's coming. Hours and hours spent, i tell you. last long visit as of 5 PM today. http://reechard.vox.com/library... - Richard ¿digame? Walker

I don't mean hours spent reading my post, more like using at as jumping off point to the other conversations. FYI :-) - Richard ¿digame? Walker

@Scoble Agreed. Had it been a mainstream publication, it would have garnered a lot more attention, even though bloggers broke the story first. Interesting how they changed their policy. - Jack Wilson

Wondering if anyone, TH or other has attempted to interest the main stream media with this story? I have not heard a peep about any such action. So either no one has, or the mainstream is not interested. There are also several high profile consumer action groups in the Bay Area that would most likely look into this issue. - Jeff P. Henderson

Had it been a mainstream publication, the photographer would have acted like a professional photographer. - Cyndy

Cyndy, my guess is that they would have still raised hell, but in a different manner, and probably not on the spot. - Jeff P. Henderson

Jeff, the first thing you are taught in journalism is to document the story, not BECOME the story. Swapping out lenses, taking pictures as someone is talking to you, etc. is all contrary to basic journalism 101. There would be no story. Raise hell? Probably, but totally under the radar. - Cyndy

Cyndy, can you distingush between the two,please. How does a professional photographer act vs a non professional photographer ?? in so much as they are both people and have human reactions. take time to reflect before you give an answer. I have collateral available (on hand) as rebuttal. - Peter Dawson

@Peter, the only rebuttal needed is "Thomas"'s history of run ins. He likes being the story. - Jason Carreira

@Jason, sorry TH is not the topic of discussion. If you have anything to add to my specific question, please feel free to comment. Else your injection of OT shit will be treated as BS. Please respect my question. Nowhere am I speaking of an individual. - Peter Dawson

TH is the story. He made it that way, as is his want. If you don't get that you haven't been following TH's exploits very long. - Jason Carreira

Peter, show me where any photographer is supposed to BECOME a story instead of document one. We are discussing photography, not performance art, aren't we? Because if we are discussing photography AS performance art, then by all means, I'm sure you have collateral available. - Cyndy

Bet they haven't seen it - Francine Hardaway

Cynd.. yes he (kevin) become the story.. as a professional blogger/ professional photographer after he he cut the Devils Dogs 301 letter. So for telling the truth he become the story. <http://hotzone.yahoo.com/b...> So lets see, what is the core traits that differentiate a professional photographer act vs a non professional photographer ? is it telling story the best way they can ? not telling the truth ? or what -- please quantify and 4get TH - Peter Dawson

Here's the old policy at SFMoMA as it appeared on Aug 6, 2008 21:06:59 GMT: "Photography is not permitted in the galleries. Flash photography is permitted only with a handheld camera in the Atrium." http://209.85.173.104/search... Here's their new policy:... more... - Christopher Harley

"There are people in our own country who would weaken your institution and our nation by telling you it's OK to betray our guiding principles by not making the tough decisions, by letting difficult circumstances turns us into victims or worse, villains." - Peter Dawson

We are reading the same story, right? "But I have never in my career been a "gotcha" reporter hoping for people to commit wrongdoings so that I can catch them." and "Anyone who has seen my reporting on television or read my dispatches is aware of the lengths to which I've gone to play it straight down the middle" are right in the first two paragraphs. He was documenting a story and was shocked in people calling him out. He didn't create the story. He didn't put himself in the story. And he was shocked. - Cyndy

@cyndy, why are you side stepping my question ?? just tell me what is differentiator between a professional photographer act vs a non professional photographer act ? just keep it simple and in plain english. - Peter Dawson

professionalism - Jason Carreira

Peter, perhaps *I'm* dodging the question, but based on MoMA's rewrite, I don't think they want professional photographers to come there - unless they're exhibiting. - Ontario Emperor from fftogo

I'm not sidestepping it. I already stated that a professional photographer never tries to BE the story. The article you referenced as proof of the opposite corroborates my take on it. This photographer is only talking about what he documented after being forced into the story. Did he involve himself in the story as it was unfolding? No. Did he at any point ask for attention for himself in this? No. If that isn't plain enough, I don't know how else to explain it. - Cyndy

Duncan glad to see you stand up for people and use Social Media for advocacy! The real power of Social Media! Respect! - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

Robert Scoble what we as Bloggers "standing together" say does matter! When we stand together we are not "anonymous" but more powerful than Mass Media! - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

Am I missing something? What does this issue have anything to do with being either a professional photographer or a professional journalist? What I see is citizen TH was taking photos in a place that allowed photos, and even verified it with management before hand. He got accused of doing something he says he was not doing and stuck up for his rights, got kicked out anyway. He then wrote about the incident, telling his side of the story. Why does it matter that he was or wasn't the story? - Jeff P. Henderson

Jeff P, what you are missing is that there is only one side of the story thus far; Andrew Peterson's. There is no evidence to indicate that Andrew is completely guilt free in this altercation. So no point defending "citizen TH" as if he was the greviously wronged party. - ld

Leather I'm very aware that only one side of the story has been told. No one can say if HT handled this correctly until we hear the other side. Simon and SF MOMA have had ample time to provide their side, but have chosen not to. That is not TH's or anyone elses fault but theirs. I don't think my last post was necessarily defending TH, just trying to understand why it mattered that TH is a blogger, photographer or just joe citizen based on the conversation above. - Jeff P. Henderson
