TweetThis was a post I started writing April 25 of this year, I never finished it, but thought I’d post it now. Alternative title to this post: Web 2.0 Dust Settles. Enterprises wondering how do we now use this stuff in our businesses? This year’s Web 2.0 Expo (in SF) had a completely different vibe [...]

TweetThese are just some scattered thoughts I have on Search. These numbers are based off a large general base of searches from a project I’ve been working on… The number of user’s queries that actually result in a match is ~70%. Which means on average, each user does ~1.4 searches to narrow down to ultimately [...]

TweetDigg would fit into CNET; especially with CNET seemingly trimming the fat and trying to get back to a core business model — which I believe is back to becoming something in the Tech world. But the only way Digg users wouldn’t revolt this, is if Kevin Rose had some hard stipulations — here are [...]

TweetCaution: This is a bit of a freeform flow of information from my head… Ultimately, all music will be free someday — ok, 99% of it. OK, maybe I’m wrong. I was thinking of TV — that’s all free to consumers. I was thinking of Newspapers and online writing (blogs) — that’s all free. Those [...]

If they team with AOL, then they have so many weapons in the battle for behavioral display advertising — and access to probably 65% (?) [...]

TweetGuest post I wrote for CenterNetworks — reprinted below: Google has announced that 2D barcodes (called a “QR code“) can be included in their Google Print Ads program. Here’s how it works — you’re reading a magazine and there’s an advertisement for something you’re actually interested in. Most times you’d just turn the page and [...]

TweetI was just thinking about Jotspot — remember that enterprise wiki site that got tons of buzz, because the founders were some of the Excite guys? They were acquired by Google back in October 2006 and I haven’t heard of them since. Turns out I’m not the only one, I checked out their listing on [...]

TweetOK – Not really. But honestly, I’d love to see Yahoo! blow off Microsoft and swing back with the purchase of AOL. I don’t think a merger of Yahoo! and Microsoft could really do anything. Microsoft wants a piece of search, which is the reason they are going after this. But in reality, I’m not [...]
