Wikipedia Names Your Band [PIC]
New meme: here's a totally random way to make your new random band's new random album cover. Post one! Go to “Wikipedia.” Hit “random” and the first article you get is the name of your band. Then go to “Random Quotations” and the last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album. Then, go to Flickr and click on “Explore the Last Seven Days” and the third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover. Anyway, you're now looking at my new side project, which will probably sound like Evanescence if they were on 4AD. - Michael Fidler from Bookmarklet

How to Lift Your Mood? Try Smiling - TIME
"My personal trainer sometimes gives me an odd piece of advice during workouts: "Relax your face." For a long time, I found this advice confusing. Isn't physical exertion supposed to be expressed in grimaces? I thought of the face as a pressure-relief valve that helps emit the pain the body is experiencing. But the trainer suggested I think about it the other way around — that controlling the face can help control the mind." - Kol Tregaskes from Bookmarklet

The biggest pain with socialmedian is having to log in every time I go there, can I have a persistent encrypted cookie please? (Never thought I would ask for that kind of cookie either) :-) - Dan owns Comicsforge.com
@dan socialmedian should keep you logged in. what o/s, browser, etc are you using? - Jason Goldberg
@Jason - firefox 3X - never remembers me at all, vista, all updates and patches, drop me a note rmorrill@gmail.com and we can yak about this one. Does this on XP, my Apple, Vista, doesn't matter what computer I use. - Dan owns Comicsforge.com
wow strange. maybe you smell funny or something? (bad attempt at humor) ... it should keep you logged in always - Jason Goldberg
@Jason - well I do need a shower today :-) LOL r/d - Dan owns Comicsforge.com
it's a great idea, because the challenge for all social sites is to get the user to the "critical point" when the social value becomes evident. I know many sites that were probably very clever but I never tried long enough to reach that point. Socialmedian was at risk of that for me, but a new batch of contacts might change that. - Iphigenie

Liberte, Egalite, Fraternite - Le Hôtel de Ville in Paris | Stuck In Customs
"I love Paris! And who doesn’t? I walk the streets like a kid, as interested in the old cobblestones as the old architecture. I picture red wine crashing to the ground and spilling through the cracks, as in the opening of the Dickens novel. And then I look up, and everything is right out of a movie. I tend to ignore the tourists and idiots because they kind of take away from the… je ne sais quoi! Here is a shot of the Hôtel de Ville, just about a 15 minute walk at midnight from Notre Dame, where I had just shot a stirring sunset shot. I wish I could freeze sunset and run around and hit every landmark at the same time… but since it’s impossible… I suppose I just have to go back another time. Anyone want to join me?" - Michael Fidler from Bookmarklet

Looks like we're about 7 days from being ready for public beta on socialmedian. 4200 alpha users have given us a ton of great feedback and have helped us ship more than 400 updates the past 4 months. Nervous and busy getting ready for the move from private to public. Or, should we wait for TC50?
(the last question at the end is over whether to just launch next week when the product is *ready* or hold the launch for a month to launch at the TechCrunch50 conference....if they want us that is which is still tbd. we're discussing. - Jason Goldberg
socialmedian is great fun - been a pretty smooth alpha too :) - Kate
definitely launch when you are ready. if there are issues, you can fix them before TC50. - Rob Diana
The tough part is that they (TC50) have this rule that you cannot have launched prior to their event. We're probably just going to go out next week when the product is ready as what we really need right now is to get more users touching it and giving us more feedback. Waiting is not a great idea. - Jason Goldberg
Thanks Kate! glad you are enjoying - Jason Goldberg
Well, you are going into public beta. That is not against the rules right? Technically, you already launched as a private alpha. I thought Twitter was a public beta when this happened to them, but I could be wrong. - Rob Diana
No, their rules forbid public betas. You must be private invite-only before their event. Which means we would have to keep it closed for another 6 weeks. - Jason Goldberg
You don't need TechCrunch50. Let them need you. - Louis Gray
Thanks Louis. My gut says we go next week as planned. - Jason Goldberg
Do it! If you beta, they will come. - Sarah Crisman
What is your biggest concern? Server load? The functionality from the user end seems very good. No problems for me yet. I am still exploring but i love it. Great work! - Scott Schang
How do i get an invite to socialmedian ? - Ric Johnson
Hey ric. You can go to http://www.socialmedian.com, click on "create an account" and use the alpha invite code "nearlybeta" to get going. There are about 40 invite codes avail. Feedback appreciated. Louis also has invites as he's noted. - Jason Goldberg
I will invite anybody to socialmedian who wants in. Just e-mail me at louisgray@mac.com. Same goes for Toluu. Bring on the e-mail. - Louis Gray
Jason - Social Median looks GREAT! I have been WAITING for this! - Ric Johnson
I say go for it when you're ready Jason. The alpha has been great, from my perspective and I think things will really take off w/more users. Go for it! - Sean Sharp
Loius - dun! - Ric Johnson
wow ric, that's awfully kind. work in progress. - Jason Goldberg
Assuming you can get your .mac email, right Louis? - Jason Carreira
Louis is Right: Make sure you do not need TC50, BUT my advice is to wait till then to launch it! TechCrunch IS powerful! - Ric Johnson
Historically these early-stage events (like Demo) have mostly been for benefit of startups that wouldn't otherwise have easy access to capital -- it gets them on the map with VC's. We don't really have that problem as we've turned away many VC offers thus far and have built socialmedian on a shoestring budget funded by myself, the washington post, and some leading angels. So, we'll probably just go beta next week and focus on the product and the userbase as we have been vs. the marketing events. - Jason Goldberg
TechCrunch is not just about VC! http://www.techmeme.com/lb - Ric Johnson
Hey ric, to be clear, not referring to whether to "launch" our beta on techcrunch, referring to whether to wait to launch it at their event in september for pre-launch co's. - Jason Goldberg
Josh Stein (Draper Fischer), a great all-around guy once told me to: put a stake in the ground as soon as you *can* so that you have something to move forward from (and look back on). - Garza
@samantha exactly. the product will be ready next week so we gotta go. product and users matters most. all this stuff takes time and you need to get going to learn and improve from. - Jason Goldberg
Jaoson, It's been a pleasure to watch Social Median develop. I've taken lots of notes and learned ton "watching" you work. GREAT communications throughout. I hope it's a hit for you and your investors. - JonathanGoodman
We've decided to go public beta next week. Will let everyone know when we nail down the exact date. Gotta get the product fully ready first. - Jason Goldberg

We Need Social Media Interpreters, not more Evangelists - http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r...
What happens if you add a comment on a blog post (pre-FriendFeed signup) from the FriendFeed Comments plugin? - Shey
we'll get there - everyone is finally starting to wrap their heads around what it all means (myself included) - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
I agree it does take some time to adjust and learn and understand what it's really all about. I just wanted to point out that the social media universe is only a drop in the ocean of people out there. - Shey
Even the creators of these plateforms don't know they'll be used, you can guess for one person, but not for crowds, that's why improving, tweaks, new features are - directeur
@directeur Not sure if you read the post or not, but I wasn't talking about the technology. - Shey
Shey is right-o. The Earth doesn't revolve solely around social media issues. - Mathew A. Koeneker
@Shey: I did just after I commented on melmcbride comment, actually :) and yes, you're right! We don't need evangelists anymore, I actually don't think we ever had the need for... Since IMO soicial Internet was way back before websites, since there was and still is a certain social-life on things like IRC, mailing lists, forums, newsgroups... - directeur
@directeur which is exactly why these meta conversations are so important. this stuff is going to work itself out one way or another - I would rather see a continuation of the kind of compressed intensely-focussed conversations we are seeing here than another process that would be much, much slower. The PC became what it is today because of Home Brew groups and other similar micro-think tanks of individuals passionate about something that they knew has a ridiculous amount of potential - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
I completely agree that we need more social media interpreters than evangelist. In my opinion an interpreter will be the one who will find out what service will be useful for the others and what is most important for them. The interpreter has to listen and never to forget that that what matters is the needs of the others. - Dimitar Denev
Great post, Shey. As fun as it is to talk shop with new media wonks, I also enjoy teaching my 3D laggard friends how to use facebook :) - Sarah Crisman
@Sarah Thanks, it's a lot of fun for me too, especially when they aren't too dizzy to get it :) - Shey
