It all started in 2005 when Leo Laporte and several former TechTV colleagues gathered for a reunion at the Macworld Expo in San Francisco and recorded their conversation. Leo posted the recording on his website, which led to overwhelming fan requests for more. Three months later, in April 2005, Leo and the crew launched the show as a weekly podcast. The podcast was briefly known as Revenge of the Screen Savers, a nod to the TechTV show, The Screen Savers. Former TechTV hosts Patrick Norton, Kevin Rose, and John C. Dvorak, and producers Robert Heron, David Prager, and Roger Chang were frequent guests who helped get the show rolling.

Hotmail, perhaps the first major success of Web 1.0, has evolved.
Microsoft has announced the launch of Windows Live Hotmail globally in 36 languages, complete with AJAX goodness.
The new service has been built to be a vast improvement over the previous Hotmail offering, incorporating input from more than 20 million beta testers. However todays offering is only the move from beta to roll out.
We’ve covered Windows Live Hotmail previously: back in February Michael Arrington took a look at the then beta service and the results weren’t positive, the new Hotmail ranking third behind Gmail and Yahoo! Mail.
Windows Live Hotmail launches with an initial 30 million users, with over 250 million additional users to be bought across in the coming months.
The new Hotmail is built on completely new code and marks the continued consolidation around the Windows Live brand.
In the coming weeks, Microsoft will be releasing a new free mail client meant to replace Outlook Express, Windows Mail, and Windows Live desktop. The new client is called Windows Live Mail and will be a desktop client that provides Hotmail’s feature set locally on a users desktop. It will also support management of non Hotmail accounts.
There is some added benefits of logging into the new Hotmail; support is built in to allow Instant Messaging of contacts, or VOIP call contacts, with one click, which will also tie in with the Microsofts desktop IM platform.

generally look back on the mid twentieth century as a golden age.
In those days we had a large number of high-paying union manufacturing
jobs that boosted the median income. I wouldn't quite call the
high-paying union job a myth, but I think people who dwell on it
are reading too much into it.Oddly enough, it was working with startups that made me realize
where the high-paying union job came from. In a rapidly growing
market, you don't worry too much about efficiency. It's more
important to grow fast. If there's some mundane problem getting
in your way, and there's a simple solution that's somewhat expensive,
just take it and get on with more important things. EBay didn't
win by paying less for servers than their competitors.Difficult though it may be to imagine now, manufacturing was a
growth industry in the mid twentieth century. This was an era when
small firms making everything from cars to candy were getting
consolidated into a new kind of corporation with national reach and
huge economies of scale. You had to grow fast or die. Workers
were for these companies what servers are for an Internet startup.
A reliable supply was more important than low cost.If you looked in the head of a 1950s auto executive, the attitude
must have been: sure, give 'em whatever they ask for, so long as
the new model isn't delayed.In other words, those workers were not paid what their work was
worth. Circumstances being what they were, companies would have
been stupid to insist on paying them so little.If you want a less controversial example of this phenomenon, ask
anyone who worked as a consultant building web sites during the
Internet Bubble. In the late nineties you could get paid huge sums
of money for building the most trivial things. And yet does anyone
who was there have any expectation those days will ever return? I
doubt it. Surely everyone realizes that was just a temporary
aberration.The era of labor unions seems to have been the same kind of aberration,
just spread
over a longer period, and mixed together with a lot of ideology
that prevents people from viewing it with as cold an eye as they
would something like consulting during the Bubble.Basically, unions were just Razorfish.People who think the labor movement was the creation of heroic union
organizers have a problem to explain: why are unions shrinking now?
The best they can do is fall back on the default explanation of
people living in fallen civilizations. Our ancestors were giants.
The workers of the early twentieth century must have had a moral
courage that's lacking today.In fact there's a simpler explanation. The early twentieth century
was just a fast-growing startup overpaying for infrastructure. And
we in the present are not a fallen people, who have abandoned
whatever mysterious high-minded principles produced the high-paying
union job. We simply live in a time when the fast-growing companies
overspend on different things. | 2024-11-08T00:37:42 | en | train |

Alexa Traffic Charts Now Include Advertising
Last month, we saw Alexa adding huge watermarks to their history traffic graphs.Now they have included roll-over Adbrite ads [BritePic] on all Alexa graphs that are generated using the Alexa site widgets. And it's against Amazon policies to display Alexa charts without the ads. Since these new Alexa graphs are done in Adobe Flash, the standard copy-paste techniques won't work but you may still download the Alexa charts of any website(s) in image format from the Alexa Traffic Rankings page. In related news, Loren Baker discovered that Alexa.com is also selling sponsor boxes in the 125×125 graphic format similar to ones that we commonly see on blogs like TechCrunch and Mashable.

Facebook users are not too pleased with the "walled garden" approach of Facebook. The reason is simple - while you can easily import your Outlook address book and GMail contacts into Facebook, the reverse path is closed. There's no "official" way to export your Facebook friends email addresses or contact phone numbers out as a CSV file so that you can sync the contacts data with Outlook, GMail or your BlackBerry. Some third-party Facebook hacks like "Facebook Sync" (for Mac) and "Facebook Downloader" (for Windows) did allow you to download your Facebook friends' names, emails, mobile phone number and profile photo to the desktop but they were quickly removed for violation of Facebook Terms of Use. How to Download Contacts from Facebook There are still some options to take Friends data outside the walls of Facebook wall.

Monday, May 7, 2007
Josh Harris is CEO of Operator 11 Exchange (www.operator11.com), a brand new, Hollywood-based company which has just started to develop an Internet-based, television studio and online web site. Harris is best known as the founder of Pseudo.com, the New York-based, dot-com era Internet TV broadcaster. Harris was also the founder of Jupiter Communications, the high tech market research company. Harris recently set up a full studio at a Hollywood soundstage for his firm, and began a very, very early alpha of the firm's web site. He is now in the midst of raising capital for build out of the company. Harris spoke with Ben Kuo about his new venture.
What is Operator 11 all about?
Josh Harris: We have a studio, and essentially our premise is we are an Internet television network. In our present rendition, we are more specifically, an Internet television station. We are not so different from a radio or TV station, except we are using the Internet and the economics are better. We're still a startup, and are not fully built out yet.
The fundamental difference from a traditional TV station, for arguments sake, is that we have one studio that has 10 outs--10 operator workstations, where each produces a product. Our studio is the anchor desk, but most of the product is made by the audience. What we do is synthesize the signals they produce, and we package their programming.
When you say production, what do you mean?
Josh Harris: It's like a traditional TV show--we add an opening jingle, a closing jingle, interstitials, and lower thirds--for example when you see this is so-and-so from Miami, and put up a logo. We did that at Pseudo, and at this company our engineering team is figuring out how to do this for netcasting using modern day technology. The shows are studio designed and produced.
Talk a little bit about your studio, I understand you have a full studio there in Hollywood?
Josh Harris: It's a full on studio. I am comfortable what we have is a state-of-the-art netcasting environment. It's built on a sound stage, and it works. However, we are still a month away from our interface working properly--it's a mess right now and we know it. Our strategy is guerilla startup warfare mode, we have started traffic just to get the feedback loop going. I like to say the the core is like Ugly Betty right now.
What have you been up to since Pseudo?
Josh Harris: The reason I laid off it for five years, is the last thing I did out of Manhattan was I wired my loft and lived in public for six months. That cracked me. I had an online nervous breakdown--it drove me crazy. I had to spend 4 years to recover. It's one of those things where I took a break, and am now back at it.
When do you think your site will start ramping up?
Josh Harris: The next level is in about 30 days, when we think the interface will be correct, and we can get to production. I would say in fall, production will be king, not development. The presumption is that we have no capital problems--we're now looking for our next round of capital and talking with venture capitalists.
Is your company mostly built on people or automation?
Josh Harris: Right now it's mostly people. Some of the problems we've run into--which are systemic to the world, not us--is that in best case, you need a webcam, headset and microphone to participate, which is not common. Some people have them, but they're not actively used--you need to jack into your machine. Second, in order to do this reasonably well, you need to upload inventory into your library. If you go to StickAm, it's just heads in a dorm room, there's nothing there to talk about except people trying to pick each other up--there's no production value. The problem is to get the production value. In a funny sort of way, this is the video version of MySpace. MySpace doesn't work unless people start putting their life into their page. People aren't used to doing that. The thing that is going to happen, when that happens, is that you can start dropping advertising into video. That's much more powerful, in the same way that TV is more powerful than print. When that starts occurring, and agencies work it all out, the economics of production value on the net will not be insignificant.
In my opinion, the best production and online experiences are games where people can communicate. It's sort of like massive multiplayer social networking. We haven't written up the levels to Opeartor11 yet, but the idea is you get higher level powers in Operator11 if your show is popular, so maybe a level 5 operator gets more time per show, can do multiple shows, and gain certain privileges and powers. The difference between this and a gaming environment is this is more consumer. The logical people to pick up on what we're doing is the blogging community, where we're enhancing their ability to communicate with their audience.
Thanks!
