@Roberto - Finally, a plausible game plan to monetize friendfeed.com/scobleizer
- Mitch
I'm not looking for a place that's *free* of Scoble, just less enslaved.
- Dave Winer
Dave, just unfollow and your chains will be free.
- Michael Krigsman
Yep. Signed for a 30%markup on unsigned ones. :). Not quite an iFart, but close.
- Roberto Bonini
Michael, don't talk to me like I'm an idiot -- I don't like it when people do that.
- Dave Winer
+1 Dave! I'm not even subscribed to you Sir, but I have so much respect for you!
- directeur
Dave, apologies if it came off that way--definitely not my intention.
- Michael Krigsman
Cooooooool. Anyway -- I have unfollowed Scoble. On Twitter that pretty much works, but here -- This is ScobleFeed, The First Church of Scoble is not an overstatement.
- Dave Winer
It actually makes alot of sense what you are saying dave. ;o)
- Rob Sellen :o)
I said that in regards to your church of scoble post dave. ;o)
- Rob Sellen :o)
Dave: you crack me up. I remember when people talked that way about you and you didn't like it.
- Robert Scoble
So much labia to gluteal activity now days. Just gotta love the power puckerers!
- James D Kirk
Scoble: I'm not going to take the bait on that -- I have unfollowed you, that's a neutral statement, it's not meant to hurt your feelings, or otherwise. That's the way this goes. No one is forced to follow. But, you really do get in my face more than I want. I meant everything I said in today's piece. And it's not aimed at you, or supposed to make you feel bad. This is the problem. Everything here is about you, according to you. I don't like it. I'm not asking you to change anything.
- Dave Winer
But if you want to NOT be the topic of conversation in every which way including ways you don't like, then you should change the way you do things. I'm not going to tiptoe around your ego, esp when you insert it all kinds of places where it doesn't belong.
- Dave Winer
BTW, I didn't like the way you were dealing with me last spring, so I changed my behavior, I never asked you to change.
- Dave Winer
According to Scoble, it's not who follows you, but who you follow. By definition he won't give a crap if someone unfollows him. Just my guess. Robert Scoble in no way has paid for this comment. ;)
- James D Kirk
James +1. I am not holding a gun to anyone's head here. Enslaved? That is a harsh word.
- Robert Scoble
Damn it Scoble. Give me a "-1" immediately, else the whiners of the world will consider that comment an endorsement! :P
- James D Kirk
I always found it interesting the tendency for one person to reduce another person's interest, or agreement with someone else, to brainwashing or mass delusion merely because they disagree with it. If you listen to Robert Scoble or you talk about what he says, you clearly are brainwashed and are a devout member of the Church of Scoble?
- Mark Trapp
Dave, I just blocked you with these reasons. 1. He feels that too much of friendfeed is enslaved to me. So, I freed him from my bonds. 2. He wants a place to post without interruption from me, so I gave it to him because now I won't see his friendfeed posts and be tempted to reply to them. 3. He once told me he blocks anyone who says that they are unfollowing him to "save them the pain." 4. I found I was getting caught up in his little drama, which was causing me to be enslaved to his thinking. 5. We still have Twitter and I still read his blog.
- Fast Company
Actually I said no one needs to suffer. You're totally within your rights to block me and I wish you the best! It still won't solve my problem, because the ScobleSphere is bigger than Scoble. :-(
- Dave Winer
@Robert: MySpace I'll buy but I'm thinking you just meant you don't use Live.com for search...because you do, in fact, have a Live.com profile! It's right here: http://is.gd/eo9b - and you already have 41 people in your network! You work fast! :-)
- Sarah Perez
Sarah: yeah. But I don't use it much. I have a myspace page too.
- Robert Scoble
is the problem with friendfeed - that there are insufficient options for selective viewing - or the problem that people find scoble interesting?
- Franz Sittampalam
I don't know this may seem way out there, but you all might want to actually you know, read the piece. It actually says that Scoble is right and the other guys are wrong. Funny how one might actually miss that you know, if you know you didn't you know read the you know actual piece. http://bit.ly/P0CR
- Dave Winer
shedali: actually I am a social media fungus. I am everywhere Dave Winer doesn't want me to be. But glad we can get back to something more interesting like whether Steve Jobs is still making cool product or not.
- Robert Scoble
Jobs? Is he still alive? I thought I heard he died and was turned in yogurt.
- Jack (a.k.a. Jeber)
Jack: that just proves that you can break news by both eating yogurt and friendfeeding, doesn't it?
- Robert Scoble
@Robert - sure, we all have abandoned MySpace pages :) but the home.live.com thing is still kinda new soooo....anyway, it's cool that you set it up with your Twitter info 'cause I can see the tweets from my network in my Live Messenger window...that's handy
- Sarah Perez
@Sarah - I agree the new home.live.com is very cool....
- Amar Shah
Dave: people read the post. The issue is that the most interesting portion of the post was in the first paragraph, where you launched into a diatribe about how much you can't stand Scoble being everywhere. It didn't relate to the rest of your post, but you chose to put it out there anyway. You really don't get to control what portions of what you put out in public people react to.
- Mark Trapp
Dave: I'll bet most of the folks repsponding here probably did read your post, and are just responding the first seemingly unrelated "#" where you wish you didn't see so much of Robert, rather than the rest of it where you weigh in on the Arrington/Calacanis v Scoble kerfuffle.
- Ken Sheppardson
I haven't seen Scoble show up in the "Really Gay Room" yet. Maybe Dave would feel more comfortable hanging out there.. ;-)
