Robert Scoble and I had a rather intense discussion around Friend Feed vs. Twitter the other night. He argues that Twitter is a sucky place to have a conversation, and I argue the Friend Feed is a sucky place to have a conversation. (in many ways they both are). Robert argued mostly points about the [...]
And One Ring to Rule them All! With Ping.fm, and Onlywire.com and Friend Feed, and Face book, I think I may have more Social Networks than I have friends. Actually it is pretty close. I have about 500 “Friends” fewer than that followers, and I have logins for 146 social networks, that is before you [...]
Search Engine Land is talking up a Twitter Search, John Battelle is explaining why Google doesn’t have one. Well I have had a pretty decent Twitter Powered Search Engine for the last 6 months. The thing about twitter is that it only works because people aren’t trying to game it. Yet. Google was an Amazing [...]
At the Atomic Test Museum in Las Vegas, LeVar Burton was doing a Scoble style Interview via a Flip HD Camera. LeVar who is known for his roles in Reading Rainbow, Roots, and Star Trek the Next Generation, quickly figured out the small piece of tech which is much simpler than the insides of Data’s [...]

Lots of people ask me how I make a living blogging, and when I explain that not all of that money is directly from Google they don’t really understand. Blogging is only partly about Search Engine Optimization, and selling Ads, and convincing your readers to buy things. Part of what you are selling, is you. [...]
Google is introducing a Web site tool called Friend Connect today that promises to extend the reach of social networks such as Facebook to any site that wants to use the tool. That’s right, now when I Google your name instead of getting your Linked in Page I’m going to see that your secretary bought [...]
Google is just like Elvis… Everyone does their own bad impersonation, and a lot of people claim he’s dead. Yahoo Search is less Google Killer and, More Google Impersonator. I hate to be the purveyor of "you can’t beat Google at search" but Yahoo seems to think the the secret to beating Google is to [...]
Jack Vinson gets the award for being my biggest fan. At BlogHer UnConference he apparently through it out as a session topic. If you haven’t read my Front Porch Elevator Pitch you can pick it up in my archives. It has been a long time since I updated it, and I probably should. Blogging is [...]
