- This media showdown is getting really interesting. In no particular order, some comments about some of the players:Mike Arrington -- Why on Earth is he keeping Marshall Kirkpatrick in such a visible position. Nothing against the guy, he's a good writer and a competent reviewer, but he doesn't have a...

- Back in the USSR
- Nick Carr is truly the gift that keeps on giving. His latest can-opener concerns the alleged Google strategy of converting all reading interfaces to search and keyword (i.e. tagging) interfaces. Nick's genius (I think he is the leader in the post-dvorak world of meme-baiting) is to keep the bile churning...

- Hey Bulldog
- Ran into Sun's most authoratative blogger at OSBC this morning: Jim Grisanzio. Although some would point at Tim Bray (too partisan around Atom to sustain deserved linkcred from pre-Sun days) or Simon Phipps fragmented his Webmink brand into multiple feeds Jim's combination of OpenSolaris mission and personal naiviete about his...

- Neutral gestures
- Nick Carr's latest post is a perfect example of a neutral gesture, one that sets up a transitional premise as the root of an alleged fundamental game-changer. As a gesture, it is still useful to those who view Nick's conservative optimist-baiting as treading water. In this case, Nick moves up...

- IP Doesn't Matter?
- Nick Carr: Amateurs should, and will, be able to disseminate their creations, whether podcasts or songs or blogs or films, over the Internet. But those who hope to make a career of writing or talking or making music or shooting video should be able to protect their...

- Gillmor's Internet plate tectonics
- Steve Gillmor riffs on my post about Yahoo's lack of a social networking hub, where I state: "Yahoo is about making connections, but right now its more of loose federation of Web applications and servicesâ€"many spokes without a strong hub to hold together a social Web. Yahoo 360 has been...

- A Hamburger Today
- Now that BloggerCon is over, I'm going to start releasing some of the backlog of Attention Deficit Theatre and Gillmor Gangs that have built up. Those who, like me, stayed in bed this morning and listened to the ConCast were treated to a remarkable string of interesting stuff, none of...

- And the Wind Cries Larry
- The last few days have seen a real ramp up of attention/gesture stuff. The combination of Bloggercon and Supernova this week and Gnomedex next week have brought many of the constituents of the so-called Attention Economy into view. One of the incipient players--Jellyfish--are embargoing their story until Monday to take...

- Message to Google: Get some packaging ASAP
- The latest Gillmor Gang, recorded Feb. 17, is another great example of how strong ideas can uniquely flow and develop conversationally, where the power of the group-think merges in real time with the individual stream of consciousness to actually come up with some insights and conclusions that are truly fresh....

- Attention.opml or Attention.rss?
- Alex Barnett has an interesting post suggesting that OPML is a great format for attention data. OPML is already supported by every RSS aggregator, so it seems a natural format for storing feed-specific attention information. Of course, whenever the topic of an attention format is...

- Peace with honor
- Dan Farber thinks I'm being too cryptic. He wants me to weigh in on the Microsoft announcements of today. My sense is that I've talked almost of nothing else for months now, and have mostly been ridiculed for anticipating what in fact is coming true. Namely: Jim...

- Jon Udell called today to say he's going on vacation. Of course, he's actually going to remain at home in his bedroom with a shotgun in case somebody reads this (not likely according to the Feedster 500) and decides to take advantage of his absence to steal the plans for...

- Not kidding
- In the car on the way to school (pre-K camp) this morning, my 4.5 year old Ella asked me what "serious" meant. I asked her what the context was. She haltingly indicated that it was something someone on the DVD player was saying; i.e. I'm serious. I asked her what...
