2007 Events

 Thursday, September 5, 2002 Permanent link to archive for 9/5/02.

Consume this 
 Take a look at what Hollywood's working on to replace the Net.
 
Gnomegrown fun 
 Click here to see just how good a time I had at Gnomedex. It's at the Linux Journal site.
 So is another piece: Lessig on Freedom: Use it or Lose it.
 
Go figure. 
 I blew it back on 9/2, when I figured the royalty costs for playing 15 songs for 500 people (that's 500 streams) per hour at $0007 per stream, for 24 hours per day, and 365 days per year, would come to $1916.25. I must have missed a stage in there because I just ran those numbers again and came up with $45,990.
 Did I say I never got better than a D in math? It's true. Clear on the concepts, shitty on the details.
 Anyway, I'll ask again: Izzat right?
 Because it is interesting that Live 365 only charges you $179.40/year for their Premium Bradcasting Pagage, if you want to put your own station on the Web.
 I suspect Ryan Ireland is right about the economics Live 365 is betting on. Essentially they come down to a bet that nobody is going to listen to you.
 I also wonder how they're dealing with the reporting requirements.
 
Blog 4 Bux 
 Start here.
 I'm disqualified by the opening quote, but I'm curious to see how it goes for the rest of ya'll.
 The thanklink goes to Howard Greenstein.
 
October 10-11. Mark it down. 
 I'm on the phone wth Andre Durand, CEO/Founder/PrimeMover behind PIngID (and earlier of Jabber, Inc.) talking about DigitalID World and its conference, with which Eric Norlin and others are hyperinvolved. Andre is updating me on all kinds of shit, since I'm on the PingID advisory board as well as a speaker and panelist at the conference (which may also involve something of a Cluetrain reunion, plus lots of other fun stuff).
 Andre's energy is huge, and he's saying all kinds of quotable things. I'm trying to transcribe...
 In the future people wil wake up to the fact that digital id is an important thing, and they will look for the srvices and technologies that will give them as much control over their identiy as possible. Yet the reality is that if they build an identy and he word's existing infrastructure doesnt' know how to find it or query it or interact with it, then it's useless. So the question is, how do you conect individual identiy with a way for the world to use it? Once authientications get shared, then profiles follow, then reputations. If we do this right while this information is being shared, the companies doing the sharing will respect the privacy concerns of the individual.
 Can't keep up. Here's some context in the form of earlier stuff I've written about identity:
 
 Okay, we're off the phone now.
 There are going to be a lot of BigCos at DigitalID World, even though the core idea is building a Net-native infrastructure that puts the individual in control of his or her identities, and lets Big Biz build on that. So we need more folks at the show coming from the individual side of things: the networked markets getting smarter faster than most companies kinda stuff we talked about in the preamble to The Cluetrain Manifesto. So check your calendars and see if you can make it. It's gonna be a helluva show.
 Here's an added attraction: the place will be thick with wi-fi. Andre said they just bought a pile of access points for the show. That should make it extremely bloggable.
 
How can paper pubs keep up with this? 
 Thanks to Dave for pointing to Meryl Yourish, Andrew Sullivan, Meryl again and everybody who links out from there.
 
Blazes 
 Britt Blaser is firing up some interesting concepts, including the eOS — Economic Operating System. He even includes a bonus Tom Robbins quote.
