"어쨌거나 정부에서 '씨발'이 욕이 아니라고 공식적으로 발표했으니, 저도 요즘 돌아가는 속상한 나라 상황에 대해서 거친 표현을 좀 할까 합니다. 단, 거친 표현은 해도 절대 욕은 안 하겠습니다. 씨발 이명박 씨발 대통령이라고 하는 말이나 행동마다 씨발이고 인상도 씨발이고 정말 하나에서부터 열까지 씨발입니다. 그리고 씨발 강만수 장관 씨발 경제 수장이라는 사람이 씨발 지난 번에 IMF 때 한 번 망가뜨려 놨으면 됐지 씨발 우리나라 경제 씨발 이번에도 다 망가뜨려 놓고 씨발 입은 살아서 씨발 변명만 늘어놓고 있고요. 씨발 최시중 방송통신위원장인가 씨발 이름처럼 씨발 정권의 시중만 들고 있고 씨발 방송 장악하려고 별 씨발스러운 짓은 골라가면서 다 하고 있으니 정말 면상 볼 때마다 씨발 거친 표현이 나옵니다. 그리고 양촌리 김회장 둘째 아들 씨발 유인촌 장관인가 하는 분 자리에 앉자마자 씨발 산하기관장들 내쫓으려고 씨발 별 협박을 다 하고요 씨발 연예인들 베이징 올림픽에 응원하러 간다고 하니까 씨발 국민 세금 2억이나 퍼주고 씨발 호화판 여행 보내줬는데 그래도 씨발 정신 못 차렸나 씨발 국회에서 거친 표현이나 하고요, 그 밑에 씨발 신재민 차관인가 하는 씨발 공무원은 누가 씨발 그 부하 아니랄까봐 씨발 오만하기가 이를 데 없고 국회 나와서 씨발 팔짱 끼고 건방지기가 짝이 없고요, 씨발 어청수 경찰청장은 씨발 시민들 때려잡는 데 재미 들려서 씨발 앰네스티한테까지 망신당하고도 씨발 정신 못차리고 잘났다고 씨발 우기기나 하는데 씨발 법질서는 자기 동생이나 잘 지키라고 그래요. 씨발 한승수 총리는 도대체 뭐하는 사람인지 씨발 이 난리판에 존재감이 하나도 없으니까 씨발 무능한 건지 안 보이는 게 돕는 건지도 모르겠어요. 정말 그밖에 씨발 이 정부만 보면 씨발소리 나올 사람이 너무 많은데 씨발 제 입이 너무 거칠어진 것 같아서 그만 할래요. 표현이 거칠기는 했지만 욕은 한 마디도 안 했습니다. 어디 욕한 데 있나 찾아 보세요. 없죠? 씨발."

can i just pop in here? it's one thing to have us un(der)informed masses gabbing about breaking news, but when people post breaking news, there's always that huge gap of space while others wait for verification. if there were credentialed people on seesmic verifying news, that lapse when things are urgent won't happen.
- Anika
Gregory and Faboo Mama, thanks, interesting, could you also tell me how you would see it. Read: what would you do if you were in my shoes to make it happen?
- Loic Le Meur
whether you hire staff or just try to get users credentialed, that's up to you. but across all subject matter, it would be nice to have an "authority" on there. so say for politics, you should have tried to credentialed some people for the DNC and RNC conventions. real time conversations with delegates, politicians and all that stuff. locally, i use seesmic to get a take on angelenos state of mind. i am going to interview local politicians via seesmic that sort of stuff.
- Anika
but anything your 'citizen journalists' create can be edited in your office and posted like seesmix or newspop. imo, creating this under newspop would give you a lot more content from places that rachael can't get to.
- Anika
Agree with Faboo Mama. kind of a Mahalo-like news emission. Also, if there would be a way for users to specify keywords like "business," "politics" etc which would become topics of those news emissions.. like watch-words when they pop-up in some news or media outlet, they are somehow vblogged by volunteer Seesmic users or dedicated stuff and put on Seesmic.

Loic talk to David C of SPot.us he heads up a crowd sourcing journalist effort

Hi Loic, does moving from Paris to SF really help in your web venture in your opinion? .. just curious..
- Mark L

sounds a bit controlled. I don't like this newsroom idea even though I know it will make you a lot of money Loic. It has too much pretension towards interactivity when the reality is television on demand. On a theoretical playing field this is the lowest common denominator... but then again so in porn. Have fun kids!
- NoahDavidSimon
Faboo and Hayk interesting, would you pay them or just promote them? I don't have an investment budget for that... This business model has been tried by many and failed up to now. Mahalo is a good example (not failed) where everybody is just doing it for fun I guess.
- Loic Le Meur
Why not partner with journalism schools? Also second the motion to talk to digitaldave@twitter (David Cohn)
- Howard Rheingold
Mark, yes, will write a blog post about this soon
- Loic Le Meur
Loic also check out Current.TV - they have user-generated news shows too. An Al Gore company. I can introduce you to the CEO and COO if you are interested
- Chris Saad
I mean that Micro interactions with brands are very powerful tools for marketers to engage with users. Not only News and press release can do but also seesmic release can do.
- Ejang
that's the beauty of it, there's so many people online willing to whore themselves out for a logo behind them, they'll do it for free as long as they get promoted, credentialed and have access to contacts. As Chris said, look at CurrentTV. There's a lot of good content there being generated by users. Granted a lot of those users are film school students, rich kids, or people with gov't backing, but for the most part, the content is good. There's just nothing really "current", nor is there conversation.
- Anika
thank you so much all, I am digesting all your comments please keep them coming!
- Loic Le Meur
i am working on a news information sharing idea and have a site WOT News being finalised, a citizen journalism site so to speak. Would love to have a chat sometime...if you are interested.

I think you & Pitch Engine could find a way to revolutionize social releases.I was thinking the other day,you'd be a great fit!

Don, would love it. lonnie, will definitely talk to pitch engine
- Loic Le Meur
Loic, do you think about adding a Skype-like calling feat to Seesmic: calling real time/ video conferencing? and surely someone must have mentionned the topical videos. Not only crowd sourcing journalism volunteers - BE sure there are many who would willingly do that off their work and time. Topical videos like social media issues, leadership, how to start a company, etc. IMO there is a HUGE cash-in possibility. Say a video of 5mins feating advice from some VC (?) for 99cents or smth like that?
- Hayk
Hayk thank you very very interesting

블로그 글을 읽고 설치를 하고, 둘러보았습니다. 구글리더+북마크+READ LATER+SHARING 등을 다 버무린 느낌입니다. 요즘 이와 같은 애플리케이션이 많이 나오는 분위기지만, 영 마뜩하지는 않네요. 예를 들어 TUMBLR에 보내기 기능도 그냥 TUMBLR에서 제공한 북마클릿을 사용하는 것이 낫지 않나 생각합니다. 좀더 사용를 해 봐야 하지만, 정이 가는 애플리케이션을 아닌 듯 해요. :)
