First I must explain my personal position I was kicked off Friend Feed for posting a Re-blog about Edelman Digital in the Wrong Room no warning one of their employees was complaining about my post’s to another employee not to me ! Another from the UK sent me a Tweet saying I was a spammer ! My account was then without addressing the issue to me deleted , this to me is ok I am still alive but this is not a tactfull way of building a business ! Obviously only Geeks who communicate with machines not people are FriendFeeds Market ! Now I am 72 years old and am sure have more business and marketing experience in my little red wagon then the folks at Friend Feed ! They have built an excellent visual application and developed a following but they have and it is obvious no marketing direction ! Understand they have right to pick and acknowledge a client base but to survive their application needs a Universal Appeal us the unwashed not a Snob Appeal ! You might read this blog and this article Helping FriendFeed? http://www.scripting.com/ Or better yet have the Executives at Friend Feed follow the folks at Adaptive Blue these people have developed an application for all of us and they will succeed. http://www.adaptiveblue.com/ It is a shame that Friend Feed does not hire marketing talent , since there a very smart people like Seth Godin,Steve Rubel, Chris Brogan and more-creating a demand for Friend Feed is a problem that will not be solved with a cup of coffee at Starbuck’s ! No one wants to see a firm fail but we are bucking a recession and the bottom line is important business has no heart it exists for profit ! And to sit around evaluating Spammers Scraper’s and people who use Zemanta will not earn you any money ! louisgray.com: What FriendFeed Needs to Do To Grow and Keep New Users. 3 http://www.furl.net/item/41347287/forward http://www.furl.net/item/41347287 Wed, 31 Dec 2008 16:07:18 GMT Imported Bookmarks Mr Godin has a very interesting technique for creating a nice small capsule ! Obviously he has a clear conscience and collect’s his thought’s ! I decided to list another one of my other favorite authors Frédéric Louis Sauser (September 1, 1887 – January 21, 1961), better known as Blaise Cendrars, was a Swiss novelist and poet naturalized French in 1916. A writer of considerable influence in the modernist movement. He was born in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Neuchâtel, Switzerland to a bourgeois francophone family. Initially, they attempted to send young Frédéric to a German boarding school, but he ran away. After, they tried enrolling him in a school in Neuchâtel, but he had little enthusiasm for his studies. Finally, in 1904, he left school due to poor performance and began an apprenticeship with a Swiss watchmaker in Russia. It was in St Petersburg that he began to write, thanks to the encouragement of R.R., a librarian at the Updated link to the National Library of Russia. There he wrote the poem La Légende de Novagorode, which R.R. translated into Russian. Supposedly fourteen copies were made, but Cendrars claimed to have no copies of it, and none could be located during his lifetime. In 1995, the Bulgarian poet Kiril Kadiiski found one of the Russian translations in Sofia. Today the authenticity of the document is still contested. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaise_Cendrars I get email regarding my reblogs critisizing me for choosing favorites ! I was accused by one Geek from Friend Feed as a spammer the editors at Mahalo don’t like rebloggers http://www.mahalo.com/ but I still Follow Mr Calacanis since he writes a good Newsletter and his editors, nice folks wrote me a personal e mail explaining what type of content they want bookmarked on Mahalo ! Not Friend Feed one Geek Wrote Another Geek on the staff I was posting in one of their Sacred Areas with the wrong content couldn’t face me directly but Geeks can only communicate with Machines Not people for the most part ! Well I have a feeling about Micro Blogging Apps they are this Generations Edsel ! The Edsel was a marque of the Ford Motor Company during the 1958, 1959 and 1960 model years. The brand is known best as one of the biggest commercial failures in the history of American business. Now I at 72 years have dealt with all kinds of folks and seen all the great failure’s of my time in Grade ! So to the devil with critics ! I still shall promote the Seth Godin’s Steve Rubel’s Dave Winers and other who i like ! 5 http://www.furl.net/item/41292336/forward http://www.furl.net/item/41292336 Mon, 29 Dec 2008 15:57:22 GMT Imported Bookmarks 5 http://www.furl.net/item/41226914/forward http://www.furl.net/item/41226914 Fri, 26 Dec 2008 17:49:41 GMT Imported Bookmarks 5 http://www.furl.net/item/41226658/forward http://www.furl.net/item/41226658 Fri, 26 Dec 2008 17:20:43 GMT Imported Bookmarks 3 http://www.furl.net/item/41226046/forward http://www.furl.net/item/41226046 Fri, 26 Dec 2008 16:36:45 GMT Imported Bookmarks 5 http://www.furl.net/item/41225230/forward http://www.furl.net/item/41225230 Fri, 26 Dec 2008 15:21:55 GMT Imported Bookmarks 5 http://www.furl.net/item/41204120/forward http://www.furl.net/item/41204120 Thu, 25 Dec 2008 08:41:04 GMT Imported Bookmarks 5 http://www.furl.net/item/40900400/forward http://www.furl.net/item/40900400 Tue, 16 Dec 2008 13:03:46 GMT Imported Bookmarks 3
