The Future of the Social Web: In Five Eras - http://www.web-strategist.com/blog...
Interesting stuff...thanks for sharing - Hugo Guzman
Great info! I agree fish where the fish are :) - Peter du Toit (S.Africa)
Agree on the whole. I always find these categories a little artificial: Really "Forrester-speak". :) I think the recommendations are the most interesting. I'd make a separate post out of that. - Meryn Stol
You say it yourself: "What’s interesting isn’t this vision for the future, but what it holds in store for brands, " . I'd like these recommendations to be fleshed out with concrete first steps to take. Doesn't have to be more than links to relevant resources. - Meryn Stol
Meryn The recommendations are fleshed out in the actual reports. Our clients (brands) have access to see them. - Jeremiah Owyang
Hmm ok... Then I'll need to get the details elsewhere I guess. :) - Meryn Stol
Interesting categorization of the development into eras. Any consideration to the impact of scale on the 5th era? Just as a recent example with Facebook, their format evolution was not well received by what is not an insignificant number of members, and yet the reality is - that change - negative impact not withstanding is not rolling back. - Patrick Boegel
There will be a give and take between communities and brands. The thing is, Facebook doesn't have a competitive alternative that users could go to. In my report, we suggest that active communities could define specs for products, and bid MULTIPLE companies to build it. - Jeremiah Owyang
I completely understand that Jeremiah, just wondering if the nature of scale impacted or perhaps better said impacts the thought process for very complex long term brand relationships, ie Health Insurance, Financial Services, a college/university choice, where consversation and user invovlement can be complicated. Very interested in the full report either way. Thx. - Patrick Boegel
good stuff Jeremiah, enjoyed and some good thought provokers there for the future - Richard Binhammer
Nice paper but really expensive for young people. $750 means $41 for page. - Alp
Great information, understanding the future's potential is more important than ever on the social web. - Maria Reyes-McDavis
Interesting, but very general and hard to apply. I see companies more as å provide of tools/stage for conversation, aka the gold rush mining vs selling tools - Anders Dahlberg
Alp, Many of Forrester's clients are large brands who have a subscription. We're still sharing a great deal on this blog, and have given the report to bloggers to cover, so there's value to be had there. - Jeremiah Owyang
Jeremiah (and the team), a great piece of work and, I imagine, a labour of both love and loathing at times! I have been very interested in this area as I have looked at the shift in skills to deliver social media activity changes from one of basic coding knowledge to much more human, interactive skills. - Paul Fabretti
Fantastic article! I found it SO intriguing that I've even printed it out! - J. D. Ebberly
"How Brands Should Prepare" is a great bit of information. Jeremiah, it would be nice (i'd be reading) if you expanded in future blog posts about the "How Brands Should Prepare". - frank barry
That's likely to be a research report I'm thinking about writing Frank - Jeremiah Owyang
Probably correct in assuming that most online social networks will neither spawn nor solidify to the point of being considered ‘affinity groups’ with the level of cohesion, unified budgetary authority or organized implementation capability of NGOs, churches, or employee aggregations. Even in the era of social commerce. I hope I’m wrong. - A Mitchell
Great post, understanding the future's potential is more important than ever on the social web. - Vlad Hrouda
Just found this... great stuff! - Gerd Leonhard

I am in Palo Alto. Thought about heading up to SF for TC50 parties but am lazy. So I will stay in Palo Alto.
Yeah, no one cool is in San Fran anyhow - Alex Scoble
P-Town ROCKS. - Joe
Yes, it does. :) - Alex Scoble
But Mendocino rules. ;) - Joe

Have You Abandoned a Dedicated MP3 Player for a Music-Capable Phone? - http://lifehacker.com/5348627...
Have You Abandoned a Dedicated MP3 Player for a Music-Capable Phone?
"With cellphones like the iPhone sporting a good amount of storage space and very capable music players, a lot of people have abandoned the dedicated MP3 player for what their cellphones have to offer. Are you one of them?" - LANjackal from Bookmarklet
Absolutely not. - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
Yep, did that last year - Deepak Singh
Nope. - Micah Wittman
People want to carry an ipod for hearing music, a iphone for communication, a tablet for browsing and kindle for reading ebooks. If they can carry all those, why not? Forget 'travel light' - TrafficBug
my iphone is for comms and podcasts. My old ipod for my music collection since the iphone can't handle 70gb of mp3's right now ;) - alphaxion
I've used my phone in place of a dedicated audio player and camera for a long time, and haven't had many problems, although I tend not to carry around a large music collection. - Tyson Key
In 2002, I had a 20 GB iPod G2 and phone capable of playing and recording audio with 64MB of memory. I carried both, because the music playing capabilities of the phone were a joke. Now I have a 30 GB iPod G5 and a 32 GB iPhone 3GS, and I use the iPhone to play music 95% of the time. I only use the iPod in my car anyway, I wouldn't carry both devices with me. - Brome
Oddly enough, my first portable music device *was* my iPhone. I've had head units that could play WMA/MP3 CD's and DVDs for years so I was able to travel with most of my regularly listened to music collection in about 7 DVDs. I use it for music, media, communications and entertainment, and it even connects to my head unit, the only thing I still carry around seperately are my SLR and DSLR cameras and laptop for image processing. - Tsali, The Native of FF from fftogo
Nope. I'd rather have my phone for phoning. - Amy
Sort of. My old iPod is now reserved for kids music and plays in their room, whereas all of my content is on my iPhone. - Andrew Leyden
Pretty much. Since getting my iPhone 3GS, my 80GB iPod video has been sitting unused on my desk. - Herb Hernandez
I own a mp3 player and a 8 mpx camera but yet it is my phone to which I turn when I need pictures or music for the most part. Of course, the down side is that my phone takes a 2.5 mm headphone jack, but the upside is that if I use the 2.5 mm headbuds that came with it, I can tune in NPR on the FM radio application. (Which is really what I use MOST when it comes to using the phone to listen to something.) - Miss Elle
I did (I own an iPhone), but then phone calls keep interrupting my music. I'm probably going to pick up the 5th gen Nano this week. - Rob H.
No. My Sandisk Sansa, in terms of sound quality and disk space, runs rings around my BlackBerry Curve. I do use my phone, however, when I want to stream my Pandora stations. - Helen Sventitsky
Nope. - Kol Tregaskes
yup iphone - Jeremiah Owyang
Many days I carry two iPods, 80gb and 120 gb. Kinda have a lot of music and podcasts. - Travis Smith
I own neither. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
Yup, mark down another iPhone. - CAJ, somewhere else
Nope I've got my 60 GB 5G ipod for music and Blackjack II for calls. - Got Love For DB™?
I don't even have an mp3 player, much less a cellphone. - SuezanneC Baskerville
nope - i separate those 2 - the battery juice must last till last drop! - Nilesh
Loic Le Meur
World's oldest person just died at 115 would you like to live that long? http://www.cnn.com/2009...
Hell to the yeah! - Roberto Teixeira from iPhone
Very much so - Craig Eddy
I hope so! - Erwan
depends on the quality of life in the later years. - Jeremiah Owyang
Jeremiah Owyang
@scobleizer what do you predict for mobile social networks? Loopt? Foursquare? Or the 'incumbents' like Facebook or Twitter may succeed?
I think Scoble has great social media instincts --he's often wrong --but he's right more than anyone else percentage wise. - Jeremiah Owyang
More than anybody else percentage wise? Back it up. :) - Louis Gray
Maybe he should be a VC. Would you give him money? - Jeremiah Owyang
Four Square raises a round http://paidcontent.org/article... - Jeremiah Owyang
I agree about Scoble's instincts... I just stay away from things that make him cry - Bastard Operator From FF
That's a tough test. I'd be hard-pressed to give anyone my money who didn't already have a track record. - Hutch Carpenter
Scoble might very well have more success than the majority of VCs if given money. - Mark Evans
I wrote him a five figure check once. - Louis Gray
I hope to write Louis Gray a five figure check some time - Jesse Stay
Yeah, Louis, that investment's doing all right, ain't it? - Hutch Carpenter
After another 35K miles, he might just let you, Jesse. :) - Mark Evans
Ill write Louis a Four Figure Check so he can turn it into a 5 figure check he can give scoble - Jeremiah Owyang
What would Scoble invest in if he were a VC? - Mark Evans
who will write me a 3 figure check so I can give it to Louis? - Jeremiah Owyang
I love foursquare (when it's up). Congrats to the team on raising a round. Interesting area. - John McCrea
John I noticed it's been having problems the last few days too - Jeremiah Owyang
FourSquare is cool. If I could, I would invest in Yelp. I think they are closer to the real money than Twitter or Facebook is. That means that they will either get purchased, or will go all the way on their own. The Yelp iPhone app is already the best one for location. The rest are just games. :-) - Robert Scoble
Scoble’s strength as a VC would be bolstered by his ability to pull in outside pieces for mashups and outside marketing/publicity resources to build early momentum. This is something most VCs claim to do, but are really only around to write cheques. However, a role that might fit Scoble better than being a pure VC would be to also direct an incubation garage where he could contribute ideas and solutions on a daily, face-to-face basis. - A Mitchell
Fourquare is not ready for prime time. I'm on it, I play it, but it just isn't stable or accurate or complete enough to be really satisfying. That being said, I am still the Mayor of Sam's Chowder House. - Francine Hardaway
Brightkite - Wayne Sutton
Francine, I had claim to New England Aquarium for a short time :-) I only wish it was available in Salt Lake City now. - Jesse Stay
I used to think Brightkite but Foursquare has the mojo right now. It's tied to places so it's easier to use and rewards frequent check-ins with fun titles like Mayor and achievements. It has a solid business model. And it's much more social. I've use them both and I'm increasingly gravitating toward foursquare. - Leo Laporte
Foursquare is an absolutely amazing social, location awareness app. Moreover, it is super young and although limited to the city you are in, it should dominate when it picks up steam. Plus, it has a really friggin cool name. - Braden Douglass
I like Foursquare but Brightkite has more features; upload photos to flickr, sync update with facebook status, comments/mentions and already a few augmented reality mashups. Here's my location based iPhone app review blog post: http://socialwayne.com/pvc . Foursquare isn't in my city yet but I had a chance to "play" with it during a recent NYC trip. It has features that will make users... more... - Wayne Sutton
Thanks robert for the comment - Jeremiah Owyang
Brightkite. Foursquare is a non starter, since they don't operate in any cities I'd ever want to be in. - Otto from iPhone
I didn't realize Foursquare had to "operate in cities"... I thought you just added locations when they weren't already in the service. - Her Lindsay-ness
Foursquare - Gabriel
Lindsay: Nope. Foursquare only works in 21 cities: http://foursquare.com/cities . Which makes it a non-starter, since the nearest one of those is 400+ miles away from me. - Otto
Jeremiah Owyang
Someone urgently texted me "Help my boss wants to friend me on Facebook, what should I do?" I'll blog the resolution later.
look forward to reading this, Jeremiah. I had something similar with an Instructor. Was reluctant not because I had anything I didn't want seen, but its the relationship criteria and the perspective of each party that made me pause. - Melanie Reed
My Facebook account is reserved strictly for personal relationships. If I only want to know you in professional sense, I don't friend you. This includes my employees and my boss. I have few FB friends that I work with. My Twitter and Linkedin accounts are for my professional side. After about a year of heavily using social media, I made these decisions and so far it's working quite well for me. But I look forward to reading your thoughts Jeremiah. They are always well organized and thought provoking. - Jill is sugar free
People under-use Facebook privacy settings; I have a limited profile version that has no info that's not public - Zachary Reiss-Davis
Link to post? - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
I never understood why this is a problem. I usually reply 'terribly sorry, I have this account for friends and family'. Most people understand. All networks are not the same - he can also offer to connect with his boss on LinkedIn instead. - Sofia @ SoMaFusion
I will wait for jeremiah for his advise. - Wins Fern
I blogged my advice see web-straegist.com/blog - Jeremiah Owyang
Lovely ROFL :))) to tell something like "maybe next time, dear?" LOL :D - Lora Lufark

Macbook Pro Question: What's the name of the adapter I need so the Mac will run with other standard monitors?
depends on how new it is - you may need a DVI to VGA or a mini-displayport to VGA - bear (aka Mike Taylor)
it's brand new - Jeremiah Owyang
that looks to be it - bear (aka Mike Taylor)
Wonder if this is what you're looking for - http://www.amazon.com/Connect... - imabonehead
that one is for older macbooks that have DVI for external connections - bear (aka Mike Taylor)
Robert Scoble
Tonight is the beginning of the end of the "geeks-only" phase of FriendFeed. Now that Guy Kawasaki is here the marketers will start showing up.
I'm showing Six Flags tomorrow...lol - sean andersen
*doffs hat in respect to the passing of the time of geeks* - WorldofHiglet
So what's next? - Kevin Arth
yeah but unlike twitter, I'm not so sure internet marketers would feel successful on FriendFeed with everyone blocking them - Ⓐ ☠ slayerboy ☠ Ⓐ
Now on to Google Wave! - sean andersen
And the spammers too, I guess. Great.. - Citronella
And ghost posters / commenters. - Ben Hanten
Slayerboy: good marketers won't get blocked. I really appreciated getting cuts in line at Six Flags because of their Twitter contest. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
Good marketers aren't most marketers :) - Brett Kelly
Brett: only good ones will survive here. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
Or they will drown. - sean andersen
Only if Guy likes it will they come. Friendfeed.alltop.com and all that. - Pete Delucchi from iPhone
Here comes the ghost posts. - Holden Page
Robert: I don't mind good marketers, as long as they're genuine. Too many of them (particular the "social media marketing gurus") are just unforgivably obnoxious and fake in their attempts to pimp their own garbage services/blog. So, I really hope you're right :) - Brett Kelly
Bad marketers on FriendFeed will survive in search results. Do a search for a couple of terms like 'canon 135mm' and you'll see plenty of entries that are just links to people selling the lens. You're not going to block them all. I don't see that as a big problem, but I suspect they'll be successful enough there to keep them coming. - Edward Coffey
i love dem social media experts - Holden Page
Start? I've been here for a loooong time. A few of my 'marketing' friends have been too. - AJ Kohn
Marketers phase has already started in Turkey. Friendfeed is generally used by them, or I think like that... - Sabri Küstür
we need like a freindfeed costranostra to keep the peace, and make things just poof into the ethersphere - Robert Higgins
so wish i was a freindfeed coder and i could merge with the stream and provide some community services... :AKA Hiro Protaganist - Robert Higgins
@Robert: +1 for Snowcrash reference. - AJ Kohn
I'm in Marketing, and I've been here from the beginning. Are you slandering my craft, Mr. Scoble? :) - Louis Gray
Louis: you don't work for a big brand. When you sell your souls and work for a big brand let us know, OK? ;-) - Robert Scoble from iPhone
Robert, wait, don't you work for a big brand? - Jesse Stay
Jesse: sssshhhhh. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
"Now on to Google Wave! - sean andersen" Exactly. Unless the FF core team is over there on the sandbox right now, doing all they can to start the scrambling scrum RIGHT NOW, the big GWave will assimilate all. At least until the assimilation wave after that. FF has maybe a one year window -- if that -- to make it's move, whatever that might be, starting right now. - michael silverton
Citronella - I like that the spammers are vaporized almost instantly here. Decent built in tools for group reporting. - BairdWilliamson
If I got here before Guy and I'm geekless does that give me any special designation? - Kimber Scott
michael silverton: Wave sandbox already looks like Gmail. I bet when they release it, it will be Gmail 2.0. I hope Bret & co. are studying it close... - sean andersen
Kimber: you are geeky because you were here before...whether you like that designation or not :) - WorldofHiglet
Louis has more than *one* soul? Or is this a left-foot, right-foot thing. Colour me confus`ed :D - Micah Wittman
LOL! Well, I guess I could be called an amateur geek... - Kimber Scott from email
Pot. Kettle. Black. - Gilbert Harding
@silverton, agreed that FriendFeed has a limited time window to figure out what it wants to be when it's all grown up.. in other news, can't believe it took Guy this long to show up here to play. Nothing wrong with a little marketing, especially if it's of the "Moving the Freeline" variety.. +1 Gilbert, LOL. - Alex Schleber
If I were Guy, or the head of any company, be it a camera shop or whatever, whenever I had a little free time, I'd tweet out, "Hey, I'm going to be on FriendFeed for an hour or so, answering any questions about Alltop, telling you about its features, advantages, and benefits, come join in!" or something like that. That's a vertical that feeds off Twitter and really enriches both platforms, utilizing them both for their strengths. - Stephen Pickering
With Leo, Steve Rubel, and Guy K now all here .. this landscape is about to change ... agreed. - Charlie Anzman
I'm reading Crossing the Chasm, only 18 years after it was published. Can I blend in as a "marketer" now? - DGentry
Well hopefully communities will coexist in open social media, we aren't defined by what or where we login to right? It's just information we share, the platform is merely a pipeline. The communities need to exist beyond the platforms - Mark Essel from iPhone
Say it isn't so Joe! It will be interesting to watch the transformation, will FriendFeed go to the dark side or will it make a stand :) - Owen Greaves
true.. true.. - Cesar Sanchez
So, do you think the population will tend to shift to more casual people than the creme de la creme people. I feel so, since there are only the innovative, open-minded people on FriendFeed right now; and I think the change is pretty near. - Yiğit Arda Türkoğlu
Marketing guys have always been here. The difference... tactics and respect. That being said change is always happening and even still I'm not sure Friendfeed will hit the critical mass Twitter has with marketers. The friendfeed brand will likely be defined differently than Twitter and attract different people. Time will tell. - Jim Goldstein from iPhone
why? can't marketing guys and geeks get along? - kakuei
No. We cannot get along. This war has been waged for too long, and too much blood has been spilled. Most of us no longer even remember why we are fighting, but it doesn't matter. Victory is all that matters. - DGentry
The marketers are already here, but most of them are totally clueless about how friendfeed works. They somehow think they can dump their stuff here and it will get "found" and when that doesn't work, they just go back to twitter. The ones that do understand how it works either feel it is too much damn work to fake being real to be worth it, or they are the real deal and it works quite well for them. - April Russo (app103)
April: I think there's some cost-benefit analysis going on there. There's a smaller crowd at FF and it takes a lot more work. Plus, most people here are marketing jaded. - Trent Hamm
The craft of marketing. That's priceless. - Big K
Guy is a marketer, sure, but also a geek. Geeks phase ends when the Celebs show up. - Garin Kilpatrick
well if they start selling, just dont click "like" or "comment" and they will drop off the page in minutes - Mark
I think some marketers are already here..but anyway, you think Guy being here will change things much? - Rob Sellen :o)
Robert, you might have to make a stand for geeks everywhere. Prepare yourself. - Joe
Robert, "Wanna learn how to get 1,000's of Friendfeed friends in no time. Click here http://somespammylink.com to learn my patent pending, amazing, fantastic, game-changing, and revolutionary way to gain residual income through the magic of your Friendfeed friends." Don't click yet, I was just brushing up! - Sean Powell
I'm so honored to have read this message from scoble. I'm grateful for our "geeks only" days that we've all shared! LOL - Jason Pollock
No Kidding! Welcome Guy Kawasaki, who ever your are. - Houseofmax
Yes I agree - Randy Allen Bishop
thats unfortunate, but who is GuyK? - echostreamer
When the marketer wagon shows up I'll be going private. - Geoff Schultz
Yeah, Jim Goldstein sez it: those of us from the dark side that stumbled into these sweet precincts have kept a low profile... sorta like taking your hat off when you go to church ; > - Thom Kennon
he's actually been here awhile, just not posting, mr scoble - chaz2b
Some ppl cannot be stopped. Like me! Not geeky enough, a girl, too wall st. Watch out, cause tenacity wins every time. - Liza
well then lets learn from Twitter and not follow every stupid command that celebrities give us to rocket them to the top of friend feed. BOYCOTT ALL CELEBRITIES ON FRIEND FEED to save this from becoming the punchline that twitter. save the whales, then save friend feed plez :) - echostreamer
Jason Pollock liked this, that is HILARIOUS! He posts the most redundant links on Twitter...a notorious spammer. At least Guy admits what he does, still somewhat annoying. Not sure why Leo Laporte was mentioned, I don't see him fitting that GK mold at all. - Benjamin Taylor
In retrospect ... it seems to have been a hit and run for now ?? Hoping not. Would be great to see him actively engaging here. A LOT to offer. Marketing crowd? ... No worries - There's always 'block, tackle and hide .....' here - Charlie Anzman
Robert, I think this is such crazy talk, you're a marketer too ;) - Jeremiah Owyang
Umm, I'm pretty sure that Guy is also a geek. Regardless of what his cool cred is...then again his cool cred is totally geek cool cred. - Alex Scoble
LOL Robert. What is wrong with you. I lol'd. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
Guy Kawasaki does have magic initials, I will give him that. - Garin Kilpatrick

Oh god the end of the world is near :) - Daryl Hunt on FF
Well now with the FB acquisition this post just seems like a jab in the eye. Poor FF. - Her Lindsay-ness
Jeremiah Owyang
Please, someone tell me how to make my iphone stop from beeping and vibrating everytime i get a new email.
Settings > Sounds > "New Mail" - turn that off - Brett Kelly
Chuck it out the window - Outsanity & Kate + Hate
Come on, Jeremiah. You're suppose to tell us these tricks, not us telling you. :P - imabonehead
I just got it 48 hours ago and was trying multiple settings, not sure - Jeremiah Owyang
Brett that worked thanks. Now there's no more "party in my pocket" ahem. - Jeremiah Owyang
lol - you marketing guys (what brett said + turn push off and fetch manually which will also help your battery life) - mike "glemak" dunn
Heh Mike. I want instant info, so push is fine. - Jeremiah Owyang
switch off the iphone! :-D - sandro
Settings > Sounds > Vibrate off also - Debbie
Robert Scoble
Because @jowyang didn't tell me where he's going and I learned it anyway I am very tempted to tell the world to mess up his launch. :-)
so a startup then.. - Zee.
But I won't, because he's my friend and so are the other people involved. :-) - Robert Scoble
Thanks for the tease anyway. :) - Steven Walling
Hmmmm... - Simon Young
I hear he'll announce it "within days" and it's a pretty interesting gig. - Robert Scoble
When will we find out Robert? - Dave "Freedom 35"
friend = somebody reliable. keep it secret. keep it safe :) - Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
Are there cameras involved? - Simon Young
Funny. He didn't tell me because he thought I would tell everyone. :-) - Robert Scoble
so go ahead and tell us! : ) - Teri Gidwitz
Teri: believe me, I'm tempted, just to teach him a lesson! :-) - Robert Scoble
Rob you're such a trouble maker hahaha - Jeunelle Foster
What I want to know: Who will replace him at Forrester? - Dave "Freedom 35"
BTW, I dig the new avatar, glad the green is gone ;) - Keith - @tsudo
Will he be interviewed on Building43? - Simon Young
Dave: not possible to replace him, sorry. - Robert Scoble
Well, payback is always worse. They're recruiting for a replacement at Forrester. Go look at his "former" blog; HR guy posted. - Teri Gidwitz
Same here. Green was getting a bit putrid. - Dave "Freedom 35"
Simon: nah, it's not a building43 kind of thing. - Robert Scoble
Big shoes indeed. - Dave "Freedom 35"
Oh. Interesting! - Simon Young
Robert - you post on the race for real time web is amazing - I really want to know where you see real time TV fitting into this? - James Stewart
Don't pull an Arrington, man. Be cool. - Daniel Fath
Nice going Robert, we all are looking forward to knowing when the time comes. - courtney benson
Damn... I got excited for a second that I may be among the first to know what he's up to. I guess I'll wait to find out along with everyone else! - Jodi Echakowitz
Daniel: it could be "JeremiahGate!" :-) - Robert Scoble
I think you guys are already breaking the ground by using Kyte etc and I tune in, but as a business channel in NZ I believe we need to be out there every day interviewing amazing people, streaming it live, enabling real time chats via FF and the Ustream intergration with facebook - I see facebook as the new TV platform that most people spend their time hanging out on and if they see an... more... - James Stewart
FF is pretty cool for these kinds of flash news teasers. :) - Dave "Freedom 35"
James: real time TV: http://friendfeed.com/search... Heheh. - Robert Scoble
haha oops - didn't know about that! - James Stewart
James: FriendFeed's real time search engine has a lot of cool features that never were explored. I really hope that's what they are going to do for Facebook. - Robert Scoble
thx Robert ....thats super cool - Johni Fisher
The problem is that most people that use the internet are still just getting on facebook, I am 25 and I only have a handful of people friends my age that twitter as they don't have a community on there they can identify with - I like what you said about Facebook Public - that is definitely where I see them going with some serious live streaming intergration. Facebook will win because... more... - James Stewart
Robert: True man, since I saw this partnership happen my head has been whizzing with ideas for the implications of it. >> Most of the people in my age group watch videos that have been shared on facebook by their friends and favourite groups. Definitely some new stuff with video on it's way - keep us posted! Thanks for the replies :) - James Stewart
Amazon? - Jesse Stay
Jesse: no and not Facebook either. :-) - Robert Scoble
Either your going to be a big tease or a tattle tale either of which will get you beaten up on the playground, so stop it (: - Kim Landwehr from BuddyFeed
DBAD - Josh Haley
Kim: heheh. - Robert Scoble
Robert. You're a friend, but you've a habit of breaking news --sometimes when folks aren't ready. It's not personal, but I just know your traits. I'm going to brief you in detail on Wed. We can do a video if you'd like --I'll come to you. Hugs? - Jeremiah Owyang
awww... ;-) - Chris Heath
Robert - hug Jeremiah, do the video - but insist he brings that little dog with him. IT is cute :) - Rob La Gesse
Will Robert put away his (fake) wounded pride and interview Jeremiah on Wednesday? Oh yes, he will - and now we have a deadline. Good work Robert! - Kami Huyse
bring @goodboyrumba along for the video! :) - Rachel Luxemburg
"Be excellent to each other." - Steve Rubel
Jeremiah: :-) - Robert Scoble from iPhone
OK, can we flashmob to celebrate Jeremiah's new gig right after the interview? - Elliott Ng
Jeremiah: here is the deal. I am not under embargo but already know the news. So I think I will call Arrington because you didn't embargo me. Oh, and I +do+ keep embargoes. I am even keeping a secret about two things you will learn in the morning. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
I still struggle with my 7 year old son to not steal his siblings' thunder in matters important to them. It's not easy for him. - Josh Haley
I know those two things, Robert. - Louis Gray
I know a lot of things, not even just two, but maybe not the two you are thinking of - Jesse Stay
Kami, I saw Robert yesterday, and I asked him if I'd hurt his feelings, he said "yes". Robert and I go back, there was a time (ustream launch) where we well, didn't coordinate on news. He's truly a friend, and someone I respect as a media trailblazer --but I need to get everything coordinated. To be clear, he was on the list of folks I'd brief in detail --others just got cursory info. - Jeremiah Owyang
Here's a long discussion on where Jeremiah Owyang will be going next. Interesting discussion developing on embargoes and 'bloggers' - Drew B
Lets figure out where he is going. Who is in most need of Jeremiahs incredible intelligence on social media? - Nisse
Drew, is it interesting that Robert is threatening me that I didn't tell him? Should bloggers assert themselves to get news? (it's a bit fun watching him get antsy) - Jeremiah Owyang
Jeremiah, I find the continual embargo deiscussions fascinating. I hope your trust is respected here. - Drew B from email
Is he going to disneyland? - Cliff Gerrish
Jeremiah: my feelings were hurt because you told pretty much everyone else in the industry other than me. Here's a hint: they can't keep their mouths shut either. But I will. You will know tomorrow that I actually do know the news. But the other deal is that you're wrong. I've kept hundreds of embargoes over the past year and haven't leaked them to anyone. If you weren't a friend and... more... - Robert Scoble
So they want the publicity you can bring but want to control the timing and message. I would be inclined to not agree as well. Sounds like you are being used. - Brian Sullivan
I hear news all the time about people who aren't necessarily friends but would generally want the news quiet - does this mean I should start leaking those details? I'm not sure the right answer to that. The problem though is often the way I hear about that information is through other friends who were trusted to keep the info private. Is it worth betraying the trust of those friends as well? - Jesse Stay
The problem comes maybe when you are "friends" with everybody but also are trying to be a legitimate reporter at the same time. We criticize television and newspaper reporters for this all the time but tech reportage seems to get a pass. - Brian Sullivan
Jesse, yeah your situations seem tough because if you leak, you're a jackass because someone else can't keep their mouth shut. - Chris Heath
Brian: everyone uses me, I'm used to it, it's part of the role I play in life. :-) - Robert Scoble
Robert, I was planning on telling you before the announcement --and the offer still stands. I'm sorry I hurt your feelings, that wasn't my intent. - Jeremiah Owyang
What's the point here?? - Andru Edwards
nothing really andru, I say we just move along and let Robert and I handle this offline. Clearly, we need to work this out. - Jeremiah Owyang
Talking to Scoble now, I apologized. I take back what I said above, he's not broken any embargos in a while and I take that charge back. I also briefed him, as a friend, and more. Sorry Robert, I crossed the line. - Jeremiah Owyang
I'm going to guess Jeremiah will join Dave Armano and Peter Kim and work for Dachis. - Ari Herzog
Ari - that's my guess too. - Hutch Carpenter
Now watch Scoble jump to Streamy right now to tell what Jeremiah is doing next. Ha! - Bryan R. Adams
This is funny! "JeremiahGate" got love it :) - Susan Beebe
Scoble is very good at keeping secrets and creating Buzz! :) - Susan Beebe
Thanks Jeremiah! Excited for you. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
I want a "Gate" named after me :-) - Jesse Stay
Robert, excellent start at creating the "buzz" for @jowyang 's launch LOL - j damon brown
Link Baiting 101: Start a fight with Scoble. - Jason Calacanis
Once again, calacanis ftw - Chris Heath from iPhone
Dude, why would you do that? I knew where you were going both times, and I kept it to myself. I coulda broken it, but why violate trust. - Jeremy Pepper
Jeremy: who you talking to? No one has violated any trust. We're all cool now anyway. - Robert Scoble
Jeremy: and when I left Microsoft someone DID violate my trust and leaked it within hours. So what? It all works out. Coordination is overrated. - Robert Scoble
LOL Jason. But Robert is right, co-ordination can be overrated. - Ian Betteridge
Group hug. - Jeremiah Owyang
Jeremiah - your recognition and classifications/categorizations of trends and strategies is truly unique. Thank you for all you've done at Forrester. Whatever your new role is, I hope you'll continue to share your thoughts. - A Mitchell
Jeremiah Owyang
@dbreakenridge Ah yes, didn't mean to forget you! Enjoyed the work on the book.
That is very classy. You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar, as the saying goes. No wonder you are so good and well respected at what you do. Like a lot of folks, I can't wait until Thursday to find out where you're going and what you will be doing. I'd ask Scoble but that might ruin the fun. Best wishes to you! - Gregg Morris
Heh thanks Gregg. You gotta give credit where it's due - Jeremiah Owyang

what's the MAC software that's best for screencaptures and cropping? (I'm a mac noob)
LittleSnapper - Spencer
shift-command-4 will grab a selected area, there are other keyboard shortcuts for doing similar - LogEx
+++LE ...thats all you need. - Carlos Ayala
In Applications:Utilities, there is an app called Grab that gives the functions a UI, and allows timed captures. You can crop in any image editor. - LogEx
Command-Shift-3 shortcut for taking a screen capture of your entire screen,and you may even know about Command-Shift-4, which gives you a crosshair cursor so you can choose which area of the screen you want to capture. But perhaps the coolest, most-secret hidden capture shortcut is Control-Command-Shift-3 (or 4), which, instead of creating a file on your desktop, copies the capture into your Clipboard memory, so you can paste it where you want. (I use this to paste screen captures right into Photoshop.) - Marcelo Paiva
Jeremiah: Grab is OK, but only captures in TIFF. Have to open and save capture file in Preview if you want another format. :>( - Larry Hawes
Marcelo: Didn't know about the direct-to-clipboard shortcuts. Thanks man! - Larry Hawes
You can use Preview (included in MacOSX by default) to crop and resize images - alieb
YW Larry. For the "noobs" out there, here's a list of all Mac OS Shortcuts... very handy to have a print out in front of you... (http://bit.ly/GcOIW) - Marcelo Paiva
THANKS MARCELO!!!! - Jeremiah Owyang
I'm using Screenshot plus on the Dashboard, works very well for me and it's free.. http://www.apple.com/downloa... - Jaap Willem
For web screenshots I use Aviary - Mark Edmondson
you can type aviary.com/ in front of any URL and that should do the trick - michael galpert
Jeremiah Owyang
Man I'm getting kinda sentimental, I've had a blast here over the last two years, see all posts tagged #forrester http://www.web-strategist.com/blog... #snff
Jeremiah, I just saw this: "Since Blame Drew's Cancer for @jowyang leaving @forrester, it's obvious #WhatWillJowyangDoNext is cure cancer with an awesome social strategy" on "BlameDrewsCancer popup on his site. Hope all goes well and you find a wonderful new position. God bless - Melanie Reed
Thanks Melanie - Jeremiah Owyang
Jeremiah Owyang
Twitter down again?
:( yes - Kevin Nunez
We really should start asking...."is Twitter up?" - Spencer
yes... this is just so old.. - Monica Brady
seem so ! - sandro
Not even a fail whale - Joe Kohli
Again, indeed... - Arjan Tupan
seems they're crashing more and more yet now we don't even get a fail whale! Just server errors. Extra Fail! - Arleen Anderson
now ok? - sandro
Still a bit shaky, I'd say... - Arjan Tupan
why care about it? we have FrF and Twitter now is a Jr. )) - antisocializationeur
ridiculous. - michael arrington
It's July 2008 all over again - Mark
yeah its a bit annoying - charlesbaker
my friendfeed background went black with Twitter down - Joe Kohli
Yes, back to FF we go. hi all. - James Watters
The pulse of the planet! - Jason Kincaid
The pulse of the planet has stopped yet again - Jeremiah Owyang
Reminds me of Barney from the Simpsons - "Doh I think my heart just stopped - oh there it goes" - Chris Saad
I wonder if it's hackers again - Jeremiah Owyang
And FF is still up. - Scott Magdalein
and you know what? the planet didn't stop spinning. - Luca Sofri
FF doesn't even have a million unique visitors --it's no comparison - Jeremiah Owyang
Cue "What I did while Twitter was down" blog posts. - Adam
It's down. - DaveDelaney.ME
I await a techcrunch post with a headline such as Twitter Down Again: World Rushes To FriendFeed - Mark
Still down here. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
we posted, and we're going to keep posting every time they go down. this is no way to run a company. http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... - michael arrington
I blame Rob La Gesse (@kr8tr) - Robert J Taylor
same. - Kevin Nunez
looks like it.... - walidmREALTOR
Could it be a hack attack again? - courtney benson
Yep. Social Fresh is going on in Charlotte. Twitter likes to crash whenever social media enthusiasts are gathered together in person. - trey pennington
it's back up - Travis Tasset
seems to be back up now. - Kevin Nunez
This fits into Scoble's prediction that people are going back to blogs because they are tired of twitter going down, not owning their own data, etc, etc - Andy A.
"LinkedIn Events is temporarily unavailable" so my guess is Monday afternoon code rolls for the social web world (only mildly joking) - Jay Cuthrell
my 'bots started collecting search results again - guess she's (Twitter') back up - Robert J Taylor
Still down... - Carlo Nasuti
"The pulse of the planet"? I think it needs a defibrillator, at this stage... - Tyson Key
Or a transplant..... - Roberto Bonini
Andy A. I got a DM from our local press on Friday admonishing me to not add any comments to my RT of their news. "KING5Seattle If you retweet us, could you do it directly? Please do not add extra words thank you." - Sherry Reynolds
its back up.. I got in - tattoocats
Now Twitter is back here... - Carlo Nasuti
no Scoble name allowed! or else this thread will be buried under spam and flood the same way as the Scoble's was )) - antisocializationeur
It was just a mandatory govt sponsored potty break.. Too many people are addicted to twitter and getting kidney stones and we need to cut down on the growth of our health care spending. - Sherry Reynolds
The ProcessOne XMPP gateway is still down. - Tyson Key
A fail without the whale just seems wrong. Doesn't Twitter love us enough anymore to amuse us? - Jennifer
LOL - yep, you can count on the ol' fail whale... dang! - Susan Beebe
Jeremiah Owyang
Is anyone having issues using Twitter DM?
anyone? - Jeremiah Owyang
Hadn't noticed. Just sent you one. - Hutch Carpenter
No. But major spam issues coming from the same looking accounts with all different names..? - Nicholas Martini
agreed it's out of whack, doesn't have all people that are following me and that I'm following, and spam has increased for sure. - Albert Maruggi
Nicholas - same here... augh - Susan Beebe from BuddyFeed
Jeremiah Owyang
Blog Post: Working at Forrester was a honor http://www.web-strategist.com/blog... Thank you Forrester for the Grand Adventure!
When can you speak about what's next for you? - Kevin Krewell
Next week - Jeremiah Owyang
Jeremiah Owyang
@coverby my hiring manager and friend at Forrester gives news of my departure http://blogs.forrester.com/marketi... (also seeking my replacement)
Congrats - love to hear what your next thing is - Erno Hannink
Congrats and cheers. All the best to you, JO - Dave Martin
Congratulations, Jeremiah. Don't tell us you're going to Dachis too! - Daniel B. Honigman
Best of luck to you, Jeremiah! - MichelleBB
Ahh, you keep the world guessing for a week ... ;-) - Zoli Erdos
good luck - Nisse from fftogo
Best of luck, Jeremiah! When do we get to see the news in your "on the move in social media" series? ;-) - Jesse Stay
Good luck on your new endeavor, Jeremiah - Chris Duffy
Good luck in your next venture! - Kevin Krewell
Best of luck ! - Nir Ben Yona

It's a brave move to leave a job in this economy. But I imagine there are many opportunities in your future! Good luck! - Liz
Good luck! - Rafe Needleman
Moving target. Very cool. You know we'll be following. - Kevin Sablan
Can't wait to see what's next Jeremiah. - Hutch Carpenter
very nice to hear the news from Forrester...you keep raising the bar on us, Jeremiah! - Zena Weist
Thank you for what you have contributed so far, I'm sure there is more to come. I look forward to watching and reading your next chapter! Good luck! - David Cole
So I saw. It was your decision, then, to move on? What's next for the big J? - Ari Herzog
we don't even know what you are up to next but anxiously await the news because we know it will be good for all - daniela barbosa
onwards and upwards. work out a gig that means you can spend more time at home, and less time washing your hands with steriliser! - James
Good luck to you! And from a selfish point of view I hope your new gig allows for your insights to continue being published. I know I'm not the only one who's learned a lot from your writings. - Matsis
Everyone will be waiting to hear what the next gig is and all will be following as usual. Your shoes will be hard to fill at Forrester but I know that they know they had quite a guy and will do what needs to be done. Best of Luck to a real professional social media guy! - courtney benson
looking forward to your next move - Best of luck! - Bill Sanders
good luck! - Kingsley Joseph
Wishing you the best, Jeremiah, and I look forward to seeing you soon! - Cathryn Hrudicka

Well done - a great send off, too! - WorldofHiglet
Amy Worley
@tohams Last week the woman sitting next to me on a plane was clipping her nails! They were flying onto me! It was disgusting.
nasty - Jeremiah Owyang
It WAS nasty. I was so exhausted at that point in the trip, though, I just cringed, closed my eyes and tried to find my happy place. - Amy Worley
Wow, and I thought the screaming child I sat next to on my flight last night was bad. Why do people think this kind of thing is ok?! - Kim Rossi
Louis Gray
How do you like this e-mail signature? Every employee. Every e-mail. Think this company gets social media?
Picture 7.jpg
Disclaimer: Emulex is a client of Paladin Advisors Group, where I am GM of New Media (or whatever title I have these days) - Louis Gray
All those links in every e-mail are clickable, by the way. The B is for the main blog page. - Louis Gray
what's the last logo? oh... heh. - Jim Hearts FF
You can see all these logos on their Web site in the bottom right corner as well: http://www.emulex.com/ - Louis Gray
Including replies? because I really can't stand full signatures on email replies. If there's a lot of back and forth, the signature just adds clutter and gets in the way of the content. I like it on the first email in the exchange and then a perhaps a shortened version thereafter. - pea ♥ fierce as a woozle
Pea, I think that depends on the user's Outlook settings. It is optional. - Louis Gray
But in terms of getting the message across that this company is connected, yes, this setup certainly makes that very clear. - pea ♥ fierce as a woozle
Oh if only Gmail allowed some HTMLy signatures! :( - Travis Koger
GMail receives the sig just fine. Tested there and .Mac and Outlook. - Louis Gray
So in other words, they don't "get" e-mail? :) - Steve Lynch from twhirl
If I saw an email signature like this, I'd click on all of the links just to see how active they are. Some people have all these accounts but aren't active, so what's the point? But of course this doesn't apply to you Louis. I'm just saying in general. - Violet Mae Lim
Violet, these are active. I promise. :) - Louis Gray
If that company were REALLY into Social Media, it would have just one link, to your Google Profile: http://www.google.com/profile... ;-) - Robert Scoble
Robert, why show favoritism to Google? There's little actual social happening there so far. - LogEx
But why make them click twice? That would just annoy me. EDIT: Also, I could maybe understand if the company didn't have its own site, but it does, why send them away from their own home on the web and give Google all that traffic? - pea ♥ fierce as a woozle
Logical: I'm just having some fun with Louis. I personally hate tons of icons on things. So complicated. How do I pick? ;-) - Robert Scoble
At some point, will you discuss the Paladin Advisor's Group more fully? - DGentry
Louis: Looks nice! Looks better than my typical signature where I just have a link to my website and then a link to http://www.travishartwell.net/blog... that lists on my online accounts. - Travis B. Hartwell
snazzy! - Mark Essel
Robert has a free pass to tease or criticize anything I do. It's 100% fair game. I think Google Profiles aren't known well for folks to click through to yet. That said, Robert, bring it on. Here's the company's profile: http://www.google.com/profile... - Louis Gray
And DGentry, yes, we can talk about Paladin soon. Promise. - Louis Gray
Louis, I'm curious about the rationale for putting the Twitter link above the company website in the Google Profile? - LogEx
LE: None. That's been fixed. :) Probably not thinking too much about it. - Louis Gray
Logical: Twitter is the new website. - Robert Scoble
Robert, now I know you're joking! - LogEx
Logical: actually I was joking about the Google Profile thing, not kidding about the Twitter thing. - Robert Scoble
Robert... after all you've said about Twitter and the fragility of SNS relative to your own brand? - LogEx
Yeah, but where's your email address? LOL - David Libby
Didn't you hear....E-Mail is Dead! - Owen Greaves
I wish gMail supported HTML signatures. Been wanting to do something like this for years. - Haggis (Sean Loyless)
you can do html in gmail, with a firefox plugin Blank Canvas http://blankcanvasweb.com/pages... - Robert Higgins
Yes, e-mail is dead. It is also required in order to create an account on how many Web sites!?! I think I was required to link my OpenID account to an e-mail address. So much for Identitiy 2.0.... - Steve Lynch from twhirl
Looks sharp imho. - Rob Schieber
what, no My Space link? - Jeff (the メガマクダジ of FF)
Louis - I like the links on the home page, but EVERY employee gets that? I can tell you that lots of storage people are going to be scared by all of the "interwebs" stuff. I <3 the Emulex guys and know they're trying to update their image, but I'd think that most of them have bigger issues that learning to explain what FriendFeed and SlideShare are when people look at them funny. - Stuart Miniman
Stu, I think I should use the word "optional". It's optional to everyone and every e-mail. And it's fine if some conservative industries aren't ready yet. It's time to shake it up. - Louis Gray
Is it using Wisestamp? Very nice. FYI - Wisestamp is free, works w/ Gmail, Posterous, even the links. - Liza
Is this seriously your sig for emails? Bit busy don't you think? Wouldn't a push to their website that has the actual list be a better use of that space? Also with email clients that don't do HTML its going to be lost. - CW™
It's a bit much - Rodfather
The nice thing about Wisestamp is you can delete the icons in gmail, if it is going to someone who you think has no idea what Slideshare is. Otherwise, wd be a pain. - Liza
In my training of employees on how to do a Email Signature, (where the corp hasn't stated a standard) is to plan for plain text clients. Have your information there. Do one font only and stick to that. Nothing fancy in the font either. Get the information there so that the recipients can contact you or get more information about you. Company Logo's are only if you really need them. Key thing is to provide a sort of Business Card (information how to get a hold of you) at the bottom of emails. - CW™
I tend to fall into the plain text camp. my signature is as follows: " -- 505.652.2878 http://sarahvela.net @orchid8 everywhere" - Sarah is Novembery
Yeah, I like simple signatures. - Andrew C
All the hyperlinks scream I'm spam & it will likely be treated as such by many mail programs. - Rick Frank
Rick, very good feedback. It will be considered. - Louis Gray
Too much. Too busy. I'd get rid of the office line, the link to lousgray.com, and definitely the emulex logo. Anyway that's just my opinion :) - Eric Florenzano
They get it better than I do. I have to admit, I do not recognize all of those icons as they do! - Randy Rambo
check out http://www.socialmediav.com they have a killer signature widget, both for personal and corporate brands! :) - sera aktüre
Office and mobile phone? You need Google voice. I was able to get a cool number, (areacode) 4 Julio F - Julio F ~ @SocialJulio
Just a simple link to a homepage should be enough, small description about what you do, and phone numbers if you're into that kind of thing. - Peter Stuifzand
Too many links in an email signature can cause the email to be flagged as spam. you need to test it out before using it. never can be 100% certain... - Mike Nencetti
Are those custom icons, or something pulled from the web? - Spencer
How does that degrade? Are there alt tags? Does the text/alternative or text/plain part properly remove the HTML and still preserve the pertinent information? Accessibility is just as if not more important than having something flashy IMHO. (Disclaimer: I use a text MUA and you'll get me to accept HTML mail sometime shortly after the sun suffers hydrogen exhaustion...) - matthew john ernisse
yes but what's it mean? More is not bettter. - Jeremiah Owyang
Personally, it seems way too cluttered to me. I would rather just have a link to a page on the company's website that lists all of their various connections. I'm almost as jaded to those icons as I am to banner ads. If I want to know about the company I will be looking at their website first, then their blog, then whatever other services interest me, but I'll always go to their website first. If that's not impressive then it doesn't really matter what they're doing in other spaces. - Her Lindsay-ness
they get it, but is it necessary? agree with others here that it's cluttered and sorta cliche already. - Bill Kinney
Looks good to me. Simple. IMO, I would (1) bump name size +2 pts (2) maybe italicize title or choose different font, so it will jump out at you, but not as much as name (3) remove "www." from website. (4) I haven't seen this in real-life to look at overall point sizes. Often people's business cards need ALL pts sizes +2 to +4. As my 72-yr old Dad always reminds me, older people can't... more... - Mitchell Tsai
Simple and To The Point!!! The Purple " B" Logo...What Brand is That??? - @CtrlFollow
I had same question - never seen it! - Susan Beebe
@louis - how'd you create a company google profile? - andy brudtkuhl
Andy, A Google profile is just assigned to a GMail account. So if you create a centralized GMail account, you can make a company profile. This one, for example, is emulexinc@gmail.com. More on the strategy here: http://www.louisgray.com/live... - Louis Gray
I think if they are all business related and it is for marketing- why not. There is another app nomee.com that does a card also. It is flash based so won't work on the iphone - Kathleen Cercone
