Re: It's Not Wrong for Google to Focus on Its Own Users - http://www.readwriteweb.com/archive...
"Let's give them a little time to figure it out.  SEO and spam is killing organic search results on all platforms and integrating social is one way to help combat that.  Just like with any change to the search algorithm, it will take time to perfect it and get all the weights right.  If you're building a social network of people you like and trust as opposed to friend collecting, being able to factor in that network has a lot of value.  Most the people rallying against this are people that try to building giant social networks as part of their (innately flawed) personal branding campaign and that will definitely serve up worse search results.  For average people using social services as they were intended it will be a big step forward." - Peeta

My Top 10 Albums of 2011 List That No One Asked For - http://intermumbles.com/post...
"I'm hoping that HBOgo and many of these streaming packages from the sports leagues will be a sign of things to come. I'd gladly pay for the content I want to see a la carte and, in many cases, I already do. I pay for MLB.tv, NHL Center Ice, Hulu, Netflix and Amazon Prime in addition to Comcast, who blocks my access to HBOgo on all TV connected devices despite that I pay extra for it. In many ways, this looks a lot like what happened to the music business. They ignored the demand for portable media and their customers found another way to get it. The cable companies and, to a lesser extent, the cable networks that force these channel packages on us are ignoring the demand for a la carte programming. Now that content providers like HBO are offering their content through an app, I don't think it will be long before they cut out the cable companies. Unfortunately, when this happens, I suspect the price of broadband will go up and any actual savings will be minimal. Unless a new competitor..." - Peeta
"A and C.  I think you could make a case that Death Cab sounded more unique before Transatlanticism but it hasn't really hurt the quality of their albums.  Ben Gibbard is just a good songwriter and I kind of like how the band has grown around these songs.  However, they are still one of the most boring live bands in the world." - Peeta
Re: Social Six: Is Facebook on its way out? - http://experiencematters.criti...
"It's part of a cycle that has been around for a long time. Each of the dominant social networks before Facebook had critical flaws that they were unable to correct, which led to a migration to the next thing. For Friendster it was scaling problems and customization and for MySpace it was the sloppy monetization of the site (ads that people were embarrassed to see on their screen) and user experience issues that feel to the wayside after the Fox acquisition. For Facebook it's definitely privacy. While privacy has been a non-issue for most consumers to this point, once they see weak privacy at in application, whether it's an ad that co-opted their information or personal info showing up somewhere they didn't want to see it, they develop a taste for it. You really can't ignore Facebook's scale though. MySpace has been "dead," by most approximations, for a few years now yet it remains a top 25 Web property. Even if this is the beginning of the decline of Facebook, it would most likely..." - Peeta

Re: Why We’re Not Hiring Creative Technologists - http://blog.wk.com/2011...
"People who code hate to hear this but programming is one of the most commoditized skills in the world right now. Sure, talent is talent but, as a category, being able to code your ideas doesn't fill the huge void that most agencies have in front of them in creating compelling digital work that actually provides value that is unique to digital media. Creativity with technology and knowing how to bring a creative digital idea to life is the real skill and people with experience doing that, regardless of whether or not they can code, are the real asset that most agencies are lacking. Unfortunately, agencies, especially creative shops run by guys who are far from being digital natives, tend to focus on hiring the areas they know the least about. This is why the focus went from web developers to UX to creative technologists now, with little regard with how those roles can most effectively be applied to the creative process. More often than not, the talent is there to produce good work but..." - Peeta
