The most customized book ever: - http://ourdoings.com/roberts...
The most customized book ever:
Map
I just had breakfast with Rick Smolan who does the most beautiful photo books (he did the Day In The Life series). This is an incredible book because the whole thing is custom printed on HP's Indigo printers. What does that enable? Well your own pictures and name gets put into the book. It is very cool and makes a great gift for Obama fans. The photography is incredible too. Check it out at: http://www.theobamatimecapsule.com - Robert Scoble
There are nine places in the book that are custom just to you. - Robert Scoble
A beautiful-looking product, just the tip of the iceberg for the capabilities of custom books. We're just at the dawn of new era in custom print. - John Blossom
9 places? Doesn't sound like much -- we created a 80 page book at http://www.shutterfly.com/ for my parents 60th anniversary - every page was custom. - Brian Sullivan
my wife did a total custom project with Creative Memories http://www.creativememories.com/Landing... Kewl stuff - Reed Stockman
Barely scratches the surface with what you can do with the indigo (and other digi printers??) my printer gave me a demo last time I as in the print shop. As John B says it's a new era, in time all books will be custom printed and probably JTI for delivery. On the flipside its great to see what people are doing with the old Letterpress's - Yant
Brian: yeah, but this is a book created by other people, not a one-off book. - Robert Scoble
That's to the point, Robert, mass personalization can make any produced book a personal book, with content, design or any combination thereof. Mass uniqueness = much better margins. - John Blossom
Robert -- I am not sure I understand the distinction "created by other people" - why is that significant? "not a one off book" -- it is a one off book is it not - there is only one of them? I could create a book that only changed in 9 places in the 80's -- I ordered a kid's book where my kid's name was included in the book a few places (I don't really remember but I am sure at least 9 or so places). I am trying to suss out why this is such a breakthrough. - Brian Sullivan
Brian: because your name and photos are used in the book itself. I've never seen a large print run book that's customized that way. - Robert Scoble
What does this book cost? Never mind - I see $34.95 on Amazon - Brian Sullivan

Folks, I've left the nonprofit world... - http://twitter.com/jcolman...
Here's my question to you: would you like me to stay on as co-admin of this nptech room on FriendFeed or should I hand over the reigns to an actual nonprofit practitioner? Make your voice heard in the comments! - Jonathon D. Colman
Stay! - Marnie Webb
Yes, please stay! I don't think friendfeed rooms need much admin - just someone to keep an eye out for spam or anything wildly inappropriate, which has never happened here as far as I can tell. - Laura Norvig
Stay - Reed Stockman

Finally, Learn and Serve America, a division of the Corporation for National and Community Service, recently announced that the Phoenix Project will receive $550,000 to encourage increased levels of service and civic participation by college students throughout the United States. The Phoenix Project, together with partners George Mason University and Craigslist Foundation, will use the grant to research whether and how social media tools can engage more students in service to the nonprofit and municipal agencies confronting difficult challenges within their communities nationwide. If unmet needs are identified through the research, the partnership aims to use social media tools to respond to those community needs and increase student service. - Reed Stockman

I've got really exciting news, but can't tell you all for a few weeks ...
Always great to hear exciting news but my guess is this group is not particularly patient:) Any hints? - Reed Stockman
This might be a good chance to work on a theory of social predictions... if we all make a guess and post to this comment thread, will our predictions change the outcome? :) - Jonathon D. Colman
I guess: WeAreMedia got a big grant to further its work - Laura Norvig
I guess: she's Obama's VP pick. - Jonathon D. Colman
@laura @jcolman nope - Beth Kanter
I hope to have really exciting news in a few weeks too, but I've been hoping that for years! - Aldon Hynes
Beth - you know how to keep us on the edge of out seats.... can't wait to hear what it is... :D - Laura Whitehead
you stinker! ;-) - Michelle Murrain
I still want to know what people are guessing. My new guess: Nobel Prize. - Jonathon D. Colman
I will get it out of you next time we see each other (coming up I think). - David Cohn
@david cohn maybe I can talk about it by then .... - Beth Kanter

ah gamboling and gambling. - Reed Stockman
Marnie Webb
Hint hint - I really think Techsoup needs to show some leadership on this... - Allan Benamer from twhirl
yo . Marnie share your thoughts - Beth Kanter
More curious in what other people think -- that's why I shared the link. Clearly we were trying to be clear and balanced and I'm just looking for more feedback. - Marnie Webb
Password security is an interesting catch 22 particulalry when we are accessing from multiple devices as well as using integrated/interlocking tools. or in some enviroments shared passwords for enterprise access to tools. Looking forward to hearing further disucssion. - Reed Stockman
I think David and Alan's point is that we should have been more specific about the kinds of viruses and malware that could have been downloaded and the various remediation steps for those. David mentioned one type -- keyloggers -- but it would apply to others. - Marnie Webb
@reed -- you're right, of course, password mgmt in orgs is hard (FYI; we have absolutely no reason to believe any of the passwords we store on our system were compromised). - Marnie Webb

“POLL: Do you ever click the "everyone" tab on twitter or friendfeed?” - http://friendfeed.com/e...
no - Grant
Ever? Yes. Often? No. - Sean Brady
every now and then - Michelle Trent
I do occasionally too, but I don't know why - Laura Norvig
sometimes - Hisham هشام
Seldom, but it's nice to run FriendFeed-wide searches to find new friends and conversations based on common interests. - Steve Isaacs
Nope, it's usually in Chinese. - Muhammad Saleem
Nope! - Tamar Weinberg
i click the nobody tab - Allen Stern
only late at night if I'm bored and it's quiet, which it usually is after the West Coast goes to bed - Duncan Riley
only occasionally do I click the 'everyone' tab on FF. I find I tend to do this more in the early days after I've joined a new-ish service. I recall doing this with Plurk and identi.ca in particular, to see what the general topics of conversation are etc - Matt Hooper
Yes, as Matt said I tend to do this when I'm new and don't know too many people. It's like "mingling" at a party. - Cindy Bartorillo
heeeeeeeck no - Kimberly J
once in a while. See what's happening. - john conroy
good idea, Allen. Blessed silence. - Laura Norvig
Can't say I ever did - until this question came up. - Robert Saric from twhirl

yes - Brian Carter
always. i discovered the web usage habits of people from another side of the world. - Jansen Lu
Sometimes. It's like being in the passenger seat while the car is doing 100 mph and you've got your head stuck out of the window . Exhilarating for a few moments before you get dizzy and want it to stop. - WorldofHiglet
just once - Phreak 2.0
twice i think and quickly changed back - Reed Stockman
no - Ian Cheung
