Re: Start the New Year off right by using a smart journal - http://thenextweb.com/lifehac...
"Some updates based on feedback. Flava http://www.takeflava.com/ is a great app for Android and iOS worth checking out even though I couldn't determine if it offers web updating or the ability to export. Evernote http://evernote.com/ for Android and iOS on its own isn't quite optimized for being a journal but there are companion journal apps that can make it more useful to be used that way. You just have to seek them out. Catch https://catch.com/ for Android and iOS is similar to Evernote in that it's a platform that other apps are built on and also serves as a good base app that has companion journal apps available for it."

Re: Start the New Year off right by using a smart journal - http://thenextweb.com/lifehac...

Apple's walled garden stops developers from doing many things, like creating keyboards, accessing hardware, etc... Many of my mobile developer friends are careful to develop for apple first because they know the will get blacklisted in the app store if they launch android first.

- Jerome Hughes
Seems to me the point of the Kimmel bit is unless things are side-by-side, Normal People don't care about the specs. They might recognized the difference between a Palm Pre or Motorola StarTac and an iPhone and obviously want an iPhone... but 4 vs 4s vs 5? It's going to be a price thing.
- Ken Sheppardson
Serious mobile developers that develop for both platforms often prefer Android because it is easier to develop for, as it has fewer restrictions. It's annoying when apple reject your app because they don't like the APIs you are using or object to your paradigm.
- Murray Macdonald
Too bad that you cannot upload a video with the new Youtube app.
- Nir Ben Yona
Have they made the little spinning "Loading" dial any faster? Seems to me that's a big area for potential improvement...
- Ken Sheppardson
The normal people ARE the ones on Kimmel. They know enough about these devices that is marketed to them and are sold without knowing much more. Nor should everyone know everything about every phone BTW.

What would happen if Google made Youtube accessible to Android only? Like apple with Flash. How would the market respond?

Android doesn't "automatically" update all the time (in fact most of the time) even if the app is set to.

Yeah, I've never figured out what "Automatic" really means (BTW, haven't touched my AT&T iPhone 4 since I replaced my Sprint Palm Pre with an Epic 4g Touch.)

Google notifications are fine. What you do with them depends on your coding.
- Murray Macdonald

Apple's closed approach is their biggest problem.
- Murray Macdonald
Platform contours coding. Google's messaging is open-ended and, as such, has a minimum inconsistency that will always leave room for complaints from Apple users :)

HTML5 is a valid option if you know how to design. Native development is often too slow and expensive. Technologies like PhoneGap allow HTML5 apps to deploy cross-platform. Native only comes first if the developer has unlimited money, or wants to service a limited audience.
- Murray Macdonald
Except they dropped audio on the Paperwhite
- Michael Mahemoff
+Murray: what I'm hearing from developers HTML5 is NOT appropriate for best of breed consumer apps. For the other 90%? Yes.
- Robert Scoble
Murray, best pure-HTML5 native app? It's okay for basic forms and content apps, to get them up and running quickly, but you miss a ton of things.

You're absolutely right Murray but that point it is no longer pure HTML5. Hybrid design works very well for most if they know how to utilize it.

It's the cost of connecting the nodes of the ecosystem together, not the ability

- Kevin Marks
from Android
Wifi Direct will enable all kinds of cool new services.
- Murray Macdonald
That's so true (re: ecosystem). I really want to get the Lumia 920, but the ecosystem just doesn't feel mature enough to have one.
- Nir Ben Yona
NFC -> Contextul, no Robert?
- Kurtiss Hare
Read somewhere that you need to use Kevlar or plastic for the phone surface to pass NFC signal. iPhone's glass and metal would block it. Is that true?
- Alex de Soto
"windows" take care of that, Alex
- Jerome Hughes
That would take adoption, tho
- Kurtiss Hare
NFC is needed. For example when you want to privately transact with a photo kiosk, NFC allows you to bump to connect to your kiosk, not the one next to it.
- Murray Macdonald
When my iphone is "on" my couch, it turns into a remote automatically
- Kurtiss Hare

Navigating to an app is becoming too much work for me, I'm placing some hope in NFC...
- Kurtiss Hare
That's annoying for the user.
- Murray Macdonald
NFC: Trade shows. Take a picture, Download product, services, contact information. Arrange for appointment.
- Chien-Yu Lin
Wi-Fi Direct needs to be part of this conversation
- Murray Macdonald
NFC is short (private) range, Wifi Direct is long range
- Murray Macdonald
the local version of realtime?
- Jerome Hughes
I hear what you're saying Robert... Perhaps where you don't have the local compute power or connectivity to do something Siri-like or off photos? A really dumb example is timing at the end of a marathon. NFC is recording times as runners cross the start/finish.... *shrug*
- Ken Sheppardson

I want localized GPS. Walk into a store and get some direction when I need to find something. Where is that?
- Tina Chase Gillmor
How does iPhone 5 prepare the way any more than the 4?
- Kurtiss Hare
NFC is extremely short range which is sometime desirable. Wifi direct is better for P2P apps.
- Murray Macdonald
Apple is waiting for mobile payments to be big enough and get enough players on it. That will be the game changer, not NFC or WiFI. Implementation is secondary.
- Abhishek Tiwari
You can do mobile payments today in Apple store with your iPhone/iTunes today without NFC for lower priced products
- Abhishek Tiwari
One benefit of NFC is that if you DON'T want to be tracked, it's up to you to mask/turn off the device. Easier than wearing a hood/mask.
- Ken Sheppardson
Apple doesn't want it because they can't control it. Same goes for wifi direct.
- Murray Macdonald

@Scoble: Its not a common usage, but that's half the headache of a trade show. I've walked away with bags of samples and literature when we've tried to identify vendors and capabilities. Half the time, we forget what each company makes / does - and the names and faces with the companies.

Hi, just rejoined. NFC should be used to cheaply identify objects and once your smartphone discovers it, you get a custom menu for the object. It takes "Internet of Things" to a new level.. If everything is tagged, your smartphone can get you instant help buying things that are tagged, fixing things that are tagged, serving up FAQs, etc. Or "connect me to my social network friends that...

NFC could allow you to "physically" ship an app. Better than QR codes, anyhow.

- Alex de Soto
one can hope that his leading example will be mimicked by others
- Jerome Hughes
Kurtiss, sorry just got on another call... :-o yes, I agree, it is the entire customer lifecycle. ANd yes, Jerome, there will be filters for everything. You will "check into" the NFC'd (or other tagging methods) objects and express interest in the object.
- Charlie Isaacs
that does sound cool
- Tina Chase Gillmor
With Wi-Fi direct, many users could turn off their GPS to save battery and still have a valid GPS coordinate.

There's no reason a well-architected HTML5/hybrid app should perform as poorly as the previous FB app did.

everybody go easy on Steve today. He is having to direct the show. A little like walking and chewing gum at the same time

You all are doing great. See, I was certain that you don't really need me

I will be taking many more vacations! I love this

Steve can you bring Keith's volume up a tad?

You're still the puppet master, Tina!

Irony, Twitter born mobile turns more valuable than Facebook born desktop

Been studying media this summer, and the economics of it and I think this is a big mistake for Twitter
- Francine Hardaway
Facebook will be $9 / share. 70% of the stock is still out.
- Chien-Yu Lin
really weird to be JUSt a viewer and chat participant. WOW, Steve is doing just great. I knew he could do it.
- Tina Chase Gillmor
The advertising biz on mobile is a mess
- Francine Hardaway
Very hard to monetize ads on mobile; drives all the CPM down to a commodity
- Francine Hardaway
Mobile users don't click on ads or want them
- Francine Hardaway
Desktop = users find merchants
- Chien-Yu Lin
Mobile = merchants find users

Moe - we're investigating Peak Oil trends

Monetizing Twitter's users will not be a piece of cake

Why would Twitter become a media company when the economics of media aren't there right now?

You guys are joking about peak oil - hopefully ...

Uh oh...watch out for those cognitive psychologists!

Regardless of media or channel, people still make decisions in the same way.

Right, Taschek!!!!!!!!

I am not using the Facebook camera app. Forgot about it really

yes - joking about peak oil!

Feels like Zuck took his eye off the ball.

I don't use the Facebook app, my LTE VZW Nexus loads the mobile web pretty well

Facebook/Mobile: What happened to RS's consistent weekly line over the past 3 months of "Wall Street guys just don't realize that Zuck is going to switch on mobile at anytime!!!!" Come on RS... don't let the stock price affect your message. Stick to your guns or just say that you have changed your mind. Otherwise all this bashing just sounds like fair-weather monday morning quarterbacking.

Facebook has hit the Norvig limit.

scoble is gapping for me

shocked that there's no relevant ads on Facebook on my phone

@Chien-Yu Lin Shorts are gonna drive FB down ridiculous

Maybe it's time Facebook, Twitter, Google and the rest hire the Gillmor Gang to advise. We seem to have all the answers ;-)

- Tina Chase Gillmor
@CliveB - The stock price and the performance have nothing to do with one another right now. On November 14, 49% of all available shares - 1.33 billion (with a B) - will be available. This is just supply / demand. I like the cards FB is holding. I just don't like it until after Thanksgiving. Not worried about Bulls & Bears. Worried about being financially trampled to death by sheep.
- Chien-Yu Lin
Kevin posits Facebook doesn't enuff data to push the Norvig limit?

ads only suck when they're not relevant to me
- Da
There's an awful lot of sheep:)

The creatives and the media buyers don't get mobile yet
- Francine Hardaway
from iPhone
Mobile is about smaller sized, opportunistic / impulse transactions. The largest purchase you will ever make over the phone is an airline ticket.
- Chien-Yu Lin
pinterest mobile is intersting
- Kevin Marks
Scoble's right. FB's got the demo info but Google's got the behavioral history
- Tom Guarriello
Da: yeah, and many ads are aimed at making you relevant to the advertising. :-)
- Robert Scoble
i'm driving to walmart to buy soap, but if target offers me a better deal since they know i'm on my way to walmart to buy soap, i'll make a u-turn the other way to buy it at target
- Da
@ Hardaway - I think the creatives and media folks ignore how people make decisions.
- Chien-Yu Lin
Millennials are unresponsive to ads
- Francine Hardaway
from iPhone
Francine: that's what they say. But the clothes they wear sure look like ads to me.
- Robert Scoble
I realised the nexus 7 will fit in my back pocket, so I can go out without a backpack for the laptop or iPad

No Steve. I dont

Or 3/4G
- Francine Hardaway
from iPhone
Google's got the entire chain: devices, OS, browser, search, maps, profiles. Google does not care that you like hiking, Sugarland or Waffle House. They just need to know you've just made three searches for dresses - and that's all they need to push to you relevant ads.
- Chien-Yu Lin

yes, Da. Not available in the US yet
- Kevin Marks
What about places w/out wifi?
- Francine Hardaway
from iPhone
kevin - the form-factor of the nexus7 is the whole issue, isn't it
- Tina Chase Gillmor
I thought it was all about opt-in advertising, and possibly Pinterest -style referral ads for mobile. ie. that said.. a colleague bought an ad for desktop and mobile and the mobile ads was getting 10X the hit rate.
- Michael Roberts
well, tina, I found that I used the hi-res android phones a lot. this extends that affordance just enough, but fits in pocket or purse
- Kevin Marks
Right Robert.
- Francine Hardaway
from iPhone
@ Hardaway - Why do you think Millennials are not receptive to ads?
- Chien-Yu Lin
I'm carrying around the ipad all the time but it is a bit too big. Smaller really would be better for me.
- Tina Chase Gillmor
I don't have a Nexus either but Kevin and Steve's experience about the difference the size makes gives me pause.
- Tom Guarriello
Moe: but amazon does advertise by having people put banners on their sites for buying books. - then I get cut of the sale.
- Michael Roberts
I've seen people say the same thing about the Kindle Fire or Nook too
- Kevin Marks
I don't carry my iPad everywhere, either.
- Tom Guarriello
Professional rif-raf. I like that
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Robert -- chances we can persuade Steve / Tina to host a GG at http://www.siliconvalley-codecamp.com/ (conf call?)
- clive boulton
I find typing on my Nexus 7 in Portrait-mode being a much better experience than on an iPad due to the form-factor. It's the most natural screen-typing experience I've had so far.
- manielse (Mark Nielsen)
Clive - I will talk to Steve about it. Can you send me some info thru twitter or email at Tina@gillmor.com
- Tina Chase Gillmor
So, Apple releases one with this form factor and...what happens?
- Tom Guarriello
Like Moe asks...
- Tom Guarriello
I'll still like the nexus, but an Apple one will be nice too
- Kevin Marks
the iPad 3 screen is better. this beats the iPad 2
- Kevin Marks
What would be the difference, between the Nexus and an Apple mini iPad, Kevin?
- Tom Guarriello
I think you get the tool to get access to the ecosystem.. that to me is more important than the device.
- Michael Roberts
Greetings Ganglings
- Rocky Barbanica
I tried to prep for the show today using only the ipad. but there were things to do on wordpress that i couldn't manage to do on the pad. I had to pull out the laptop
- Tina Chase Gillmor
@ Robert: Give him the 7" iPad. Price point. Size. Babysitting potential. Apple made a smaller device by just dusting off the old Apple II playbook: good price point meant for a smaller hands audience. Come Christmas, what do kids ask Santa for?
- Chien-Yu Lin
Well said Steve (re Laptops and iPad)
- Keith Teare
Ganglings....ha, ha.... I like that, Rocky
- Tina Chase Gillmor
I'd rather have a Surface and replace a tablet and laptop at same time
- Stephen M
that's such bullshit. 'shrink your fingers' try using an iPhone with 1/3 the screen
- Kevin Marks
wow, folks here have so many different devices. Most people I come across have a laptop or desktop, and a phone, and that's it.
- Da
Steve's so cute.... I miss him

we are weird Da. I have 6 in arms reach

Da - you are right. THis group is gadget-rich. Certainly most people dont have all these devises. But when the dust settles, we might not either.
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Youtube is preferred method of "listening" to music for young people, ahead of CD or iTunes

@Tina will email. THX

IS Scoble gonna lose it again ???? Cross your fingers !!!
- Rocky Barbanica
My girlfriend's Galaxy S III is awesome
- Da
Scoble just hasn't given the Nexus 7 and Android Widgets a chance to change his mind. On just one homescreen screen dashboard, I can replace his 3 Computer screens with Email, Next Appointment, Twitter, Facebook, Google Plus and Google Reader all showing. In one swipe to the next screen, I can be even more granular with widgets.
- manielse (Mark Nielsen)
Watch it, Taschek - thems fightin words
- Rocky Barbanica
switch Steve
- Tina Chase Gillmor
@rocmanusa - that was a compliment!
- John Taschek
i can't use a phone that has a screen smaller than 4.3"

when an app becomes useful then it comes to Android

Ok Clive... I'll look for it
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Fair point Robert.
- manielse (Mark Nielsen)
oh no.... here he goes!

Crank Scoble up!

heheheh !

he's gonna blow... he's over due

@ Taschek - Its a First Person Shooter Spreadsheet

I'm currently an iOS & iPad owner but I've recently purchased a Nexus 7 and after owning 2 previous Android phones I feel Android is finally ready for prime time. I will seriously evaluate the iPhone 5 vs. Next Google phone for the first time. Another driving factor for me is how Android is really starting to take over the TV experience. 2nd gen Google TV's like Vizio's are getting...
more...
- Mark Krynsky
This is a good summary of developers versus popularity of Android - http://www.guardian.co.uk/technol...
- John Taschek
Mark: I agree with you. For the first time I could see being an Android fanboy. That's a huge shift.
- Robert Scoble
You tell 'em, Steve - - ok switch
- Rocky Barbanica
If Apple succeeds as replacing the operators STB they will win. Google is taking a safer approach with Google TV being a layer on top of the operators STB's. But Android is really becoming a powerful force taking over TV's. Aero's recent court win also is great. It's becoming very interesting and hopefully things finally start to materialize.
- Mark Krynsky
did anyone see that AT&T decided how they are going to handle FaceTime over Cellular?
- Stephen M
LOL
- Rocky Barbanica
Taschek, like Evernote?
- Tom Guarriello
Readability
- Tom Guarriello
Moe: yes. I'm trying to get to Microsoft on the show.
- Robert Scoble
I currently use my Nexus 7 as an awesome universal remote for my Google TV with Ableremote. I'm also using Plex and GTVBox to stream content. Vizio's device is selling out during pre-orders and Ouya raised $9 Million. Android is kicking butt on the TV side.
- Mark Krynsky
In the future is going HTML 5, so little need for apps
- Da
noise has gona away.
- Keith Teare
Amazon's Kindle Chrome Extension - http://www.fiercecio.com/techwat...
- John Taschek
AT&T says to use FaceTime over Cellular you have to use their new Mobile Share plans.... you will only be able to use it over WiFi if you have an unlimited plan or an individual plan
- Stephen M
Tom - it is like readability, which I also use. but it is distributed everywhere.
- John Taschek
That's what Evernote does, too, John.
- Tom Guarriello
It is also like Evernote -- except that it puts everything in a more accessible way. I use Evernote for the majority of my notes and use the Extension, etc. But the Kindle app puts it into a more readable Kindle format.
- John Taschek
Gotcha. Will check that out.
- Tom Guarriello
Here is a link to the Amazon extension on the Google store - https://chrome.google.com/webstor...
- John Taschek
Thank you AT&T - Not :(
- clive boulton
Tina - you guys can send participants CLEAR msgs independently ?
- Rocky Barbanica
one thing about Microsoft is Windows hardware is more affordable for the masses. I broke the screen of my $200 XP netbook a couple of months ago, my Nexus is my mainstay now. I'm waiting for an affordable Win 8 laptop.
- Da
Chrome browsing to the other device is nice too
- Kevin Marks
Surface is natural HCI - touching the screen. If MSFT has software ready W8 will sell devices.
- clive boulton
Lenovo has said they will price their Windows RT tablets for $300
- Stephen M
Chrome cross-device browsing is def nice
- Tom Guarriello
Keith pull your mic out
- Tina Chase Gillmor
we need to get Keith to invest in http://www.bluemic.com/
- Kevin Marks
Gotta be a skype feature, right?
- Rocky Barbanica
rocky - not sure what you're talking about... CLEAR msg. tell me more
- Tina Chase Gillmor
just make sure you turn off remote swipe
- Da
Not via tricaster, I mean
- Rocky Barbanica
spreadsheet on tablet is a poor fit right now.
- Kevin Marks
ahhh
- Tina Chase Gillmor
wordpress on tablet is a poor fit right now too
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Keith isn't it also the cloud data, the device, but also the company ecosystem? ie. the apple ios ecosystem, the airplay ecosystem. to me that also is important when thinking how these devices interact.
- Michael Roberts
Heard Steve tell Kevin there was a CLEAR on screen - as in Stop Talking Now
- Rocky Barbanica
maybe I misunderstood
- Rocky Barbanica
Side-by-side @ io12 Fire vs Nexus 7 https://plus.google.com/u...
- clive boulton
Rocky: he said "clue." Which was that he had Keith up on screen.
- Robert Scoble
ahhhh - my bad
- Rocky Barbanica
No not a "Clear" he said there was a "hint" meaning he put Johns face on the screen
- Tina Chase Gillmor
got all excited about a feature like that
- Rocky Barbanica
right "clue" not "hint" not "clear"
- Tina Chase Gillmor
maybe we should talk to Newtek... or skype, Rocky
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Switch please

Tina FTW

Enterprise? Client Server 1.0 era - dumb server, smart pc. App Cloud 2.0 era - social cloud, powerful device (Client Server 0 era dumb server, dumb terminal )
- clive boulton
right. then isn't this just as important as the cloud... ie. something like an IPAD can connect to apple TV.
- Michael Roberts
Michael Roberts - Yes, I agree
- Keith Teare
indeed
- Rocky Barbanica
our TV at home is connected to an xbox
- Da
I am covering my ears so as not to hear all the cool new Tricaster features that I can't use because I DON'T HAVE IT
- Tina Chase Gillmor
seems simple enough - just attach a pipe or socket to each transport - small overhead I'd bet
- Rocky Barbanica
Airplay functionality is coming for Google TV :) http://gigaom.com/video...
- Mark Krynsky
I'm very interest in the XBOX 360 and SmartGlass for Surface app
- Stephen M
geez this is hard to sit back and not be able to make the switches.... ughhhhhh
- Tina Chase Gillmor
There's also currently an Android app that mimics Airplay functionality. I'll need to try this soon. https://play.google.com/store...
- Mark Krynsky
Google can potentially do this -- General Instruments was a leader in set tops, was acquired by Motorola, which became Mobility and now owned by Google.
- John Taschek
Whether Google does this or not is questionable.
- John Taschek
I want the opposie of that Mark, send form android to appletv
- Kevin Marks
Cablevision already has DVR in the Cloud: http://www.pcmag.com/article... and it was ruled legal
- Stephen M
the problem with Apple TV is you need you buy Apple TV. I just want airplay code in all TV devices.
- Michael Roberts
LOL - hey - would you mind if I shadowed you guys Friday after next ?
- Rocky Barbanica
My Boxee box supports Airplay. So I can send content from iPhone or iPad to it.
- Mark Krynsky
Tina - Steve, that is
- Rocky Barbanica
Michael: that will never happen. Apple is too controlling and TV manufacturers are too unwilling to license anything from Apple. Also, they are too clueless to implement it well.
- Robert Scoble

- Stephen M
Hi Mark, Kevin, Scoble, Rocky :)
- Nick Halstead
we had twitter discussion at top of the show, nick

Nick: let's talk this weekend. +1-425-205-1921
- Robert Scoble
Google and microsoft already have the bruises from trying to work with the cable companies..how can Apple avoid that?
- Stephen M
I have MLB on Apple TV but can't cut because of NFL
- Tom Guarriello
Robert, sure, will give you a call.
- Nick Halstead
Yeah but they dropped The Who until everyone went to bed - NBC SUCKS
- Rocky Barbanica
Kevin, what was conclusion of Twitter discussion?
- Nick Halstead
NBC's prime-time viewership average for the week was 26.06 million (15.1 rating, 25 share), with CBS a distant second place with 4.12 million (2.8 rating, 5 share), followed by Univision with 3.76 million (1.3 rating, 3 share), ABC with 3.04 million (2.0 rating, 3 share), Fox with 2.24 million (1.4 rating, 2 share), ION Television with 920,000 (0.7 rating, 1 share), and CW with 600,000 (0.4 rating, 1 share).
- John Taschek
Kevin, this could make the Q very useful http://www.engadget.com/2012...
- Mark Krynsky
ya - audio #FAIL
- Rocky Barbanica
Just yesterday I was talking to an "average" person who said she didn't get her friend's message (it was sent by email). She told them to Facebook her next time. I asked her why. She said she gets the facebook "pushed" at her ( although she didn't use that term). She then said she just didn't have time for email when Facebooking was much easier. She is a 35 yr old student and mom
- Tina Chase Gillmor
BBC Coverage of closing ceremony was on the Web (in UK) :)
- Nick Halstead
I setup a proxy back to UK (as I was in SF during it) and coverage was awesome :)
- Nick Halstead
I watched it via iPlayer and Tunnelbear, nick
- Kevin Marks
Maybe Apple should buy the rights to the next Olympics and compete with NBC. NBC can buy access from apple to stream it. Then Apple can show how to broadcast the Olympics.
- Michael Roberts
Yeah, BBC was a lot better.
- Robert Scoble
Kevin, yeah - worked really well. (I have a Amazon S3 tunnel I use.)
- Nick Halstead
Kevin (EC2 I mean)
- Nick Halstead
Maybe Apple should just buy NBC. :-)
- Robert Scoble
I didn't see a problem with the coverge NBC had
- Stephen M
VPN to the BBC and you can still see the entire Closing Ceremonies
- Tom Guarriello
Google should buy the Olympic broadcasting rights
- Da
They removed the german diver's PERFECT ZERO too -
- Rocky Barbanica
NBC streamed the closing ceremonies LIVE online
- Stephen M
want that diver's speedoes? here's the link to buy it
- Da
time to wrap Steve
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Robert, well yes.. rather than trying to buy in.. get become one of them, but done better. like the iphone.. when they got into the phone market.

the power of this GG community is tremendous. Even though I am so intimately involved with the show I can feel that so completely
- Tina Chase Gillmor

- Kevin Marks
someone give Steve the "wrap it up" hand sign
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Tunnelbear is your friend Moe
- Kevin Marks
i actually preferred when microsoft was incharge of the olympics streaming.. they allowed u to start a match over from the beginning, even if u started watching in the middle
- Stephen M
So you guys talked Twitter API. Did you also talk App.net earlier? I got on late. Trying to see if I should catch the recorded version :)
- Mark Krynsky
Great switching Steve.... really good
- Tina Chase Gillmor
@mark - thats what I wanted to know :)
- Nick Halstead
Tina is "especially those who weren't here" today
- Kevin Marks
Twitter API was about the first 20 minutes.
- Chien-Yu Lin
down the tunnel
- Jerome Hughes
Awesome close, Steve! heheh - good show, man !
- Rocky Barbanica
So much anger towards Twitter API and many don't feel that app.net is a solution. I'm curious to hear what those that have that sentiment propose.
- Mark Krynsky
The guy who ran the BBC stream was on Frame Rate here http://twit.tv/show...

Buy a VPN Tunnel from UKProxyserver.com and you can do all of this using BBC iPlayer. About 100 a year for unlimited use
- Keith Teare
Bye everyone.... just the best
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Keith, Tunnelbear is $50/year or $5/month
- Kevin Marks
Maybe Apple should buy Comcast, so Apple can have access to NBC. Hmmm.... Funny thing is, having worked for the cable companies, and as one of the guys who worked for Dynamac, the first Apple laptop, I've seen a number of Apple failures. But something about "now" feels different -- as if Comcast et al. would be willing to grant Apple MFN access to their ecosystem, enabling subscribers to get unfettered access to video and data over their tablets and other handheld devices (but NOT Apple TV).

"Laurent, in my post I linked to Dalton's post regarding support for Activity Streams, pubsubhubbub and more which is here http://daltoncaldwell.com/a-re... . I don't side with the "purity" issue, although another interesting approach, it wasn't the reason I backed this project. As you see towards the end of my post I don't know if this can become the service I'm hoping emerges to provide what I'm looking for, but at least they're trying something different and seem to be getting some great support off the bat. I've seen many open standards and initiatives flounder over the years and I see many folks criticizing what app.net is doing and if instead of sitting on the sidelines complaining, if they come up with a service that provides a better solution, I'll be the first in line to back them as well."
