But they're not innovating (or rather, nothing in the article led me to believe that they are). They're desperately trying to find a way to map their business from the old media (Television) to new one (the Internet). The new transcends the old. What worked well on one isn't necessarily going to work well on the other, and unless they "get" this sometime between now and launch, they'll fail. | null | null | 5,988 | 5,972 | null | null | null | null |

6,010 | comment | domp | 2007-03-23T22:01:34 | null | Yeah I'm thinking it's mostly just buzz and the aftermath of SXSW. A friend did point out that it's good for if you're in the city and want to know if friends are somewhere close. This however does not apply to my 90s Zack Morris phone. <p>I compare it to those overly hyped bands that you only hear about either at SXSW or around awards shows.

So you browse, you bookmark, you organize and you share your links and organization all at once. This would be an improvement over what a digg does in that they store your links and rank them by popularity, but they manage the grouping (Politics, Technology, etc). Does this resonate? | null | null | 6,017 | 6,017 | null | null | null | null |
6,020 | comment | e1ven | 2007-03-23T23:28:47 | null | I like the Apple TV, but not as Apple presents it ;)<p>When you tear it down, the machine is basically a Mac mini mini- They cut every conceivable feature from the machine, then halved the price, and targetted it toward video..<p>This opens a lot of possibilities as a Platform- The team who loaded Divx drivers onto it [1] already showed that it's just OSX ont he inside- This opens possibilities on what to do with it. <p>This makes it useful as a Platform, albeit one that you need to fight to develop for.<p>People could write games for the machine, or do TiVo style hacks.. Keep in mind, Dozens of mods and hacks have been written for Tivos, many which greatly enhance the built in functionality [2]..<p>The question now is what will Apple Do- They could go either the Tivo/Xbox route and try to lock it down, or go the Linksys route, and embrace the hackers and agree that they add value.<p>
It's too early to tell for sure which route they'll take, but from early indications it looks like they're A) Making it easy to hack- This lets people develop on it, and make cool things, without getting in the way.. They are doing this while also b) Not guaranteeing that the system won't change..<p>Essentially, anything made for it can stop working with the next set fromt eh factory. This means that most companies would be insane to develop anything for it, since their investment could be stopped by a third party in a second..<p>It seems like what Apple is doing is letting Hackers play and extend, while stopping any larger players from getting involved.<p>Interesting move.<p>

6,059 | comment | SwellJoe | 2007-03-24T06:48:28 | null | No one is asking: "How big is this share of this particular market?"<p>That'd be my question. If these two companies are fighting for share of a tiny pie, it's just stupid. If the pie is much bigger than I believe it is, then the game for market share hasn't even begun yet. The big players haven't even really placed their bets, and that's when things will get interesting (but you have to be there before the big players if you want a chance at walking away a big winner).<p>Anyway, it's not a market I'd want to go after, because I don't see it being big enough for so many contenders (there are others out there--it's not just these two). But then, almost no market looks big "enough" to outsiders. People are always confused when I make claims about how large our market is (niche software for a 10-20 billion dollar worldwide industry that's increasing at a couple billion per year).<p>So, if they've researched their market and found it large enough to make for big winners in a year or two, now is a fine time to enter it. Just because you and I know all about 37signals and think they're cool, doesn't mean anybody else knows what the heck they're building. The real market (folks who aren't web 2.0 developers) hasn't even begun buying this product on the web yet, and they certainly will. Everybody has an equal chance to be "first mover" at this point. | null | null | 5,175 | 5,175 | null | null | null | null |

6,066 | comment | ced | 2007-03-24T08:44:06 | null | I'd like to hear from those who "consciously chose not to apply at all". So far it seems that if you're going to build a typical web startup, then being funded by pg is always a net positive... I'm more interested in learning about the other ways of doing it.

I wanted to show all you non-US entrepreneurs that you don't have to startup in the US to be successful. These guys, and many others in the Aussie startup community, provide much inspiration to Aussie students like myself who hope to follow them into the industry. I hope they add some value and inspire you too! | null | null | 5,899 | 5,899 | null | [

6,071 | comment | volida | 2007-03-24T12:47:36 | null | there will be always place for new implementations because existing ones create gaps or cause a new wave of needs,
that takes force by users that are bored of something they already used.<p>if you accept that what we have available yesterday is enough for everyone today then you accept that there is
no space for new ideas.<p>but the reason there are ideas is because we are never satisfied.<p>though, i had also the same reaction when i first heared about netvibes broad use and I wondered why contrary to its simplicity. But its one of these times that simplicity of creating something not conceived by lots of people, can grasp significant usage due to the audience ready to adopt that peculiar experience, that later only becomes familiar and how i could live without it or just a trend that will pass... | null | null | 5,987 | 5,987 | null | null | null | null |

6,075 | comment | Alex3917 | 2007-03-24T14:42:49 | null | Sociologically, twitter is very different from other communication forms. AIM and Skype are designed for communicating thoughts and ideas. Twitter, however, is designed for telecocooning. Telecocooning is traditionally defined as sending little "presence pokes" to people. For example, just saying hi or sending someone a picture of a heart or a smiley face. The point of these messages isn't the ideas they contain, but rather the message itself. That is, just getting any message from someone shows that the other person is thinking about them and cares about them.<p>Traditionally people telecocoon with their two or three closest friends. However, Twitter lowers the telecocooning barrier so you can telecocoon with many more friends for the same effort. People tend to just send messages like "ahh homework sucks" or "heh stuck at the library." You aren't really communicating anything intelligent, but you are building a feeling of group solidarity by letting people around you know what's up. It also helps people to find where their friends are if they want to meet up.

6,081 | comment | domp | 2007-03-24T17:03:21 | null | I'm not buying the telecocooning thing. Sounds like more of a catch phrase more than anything else. I can put up an away message that says whatever I'm doing much like a "presence poke". Or I can just blast a text to my friends letting them know what meaningless task I'm involved in at the moment. <p>I can see how it can show how you care or are thinking of them but if telecocooning lowers the barrier doesn't that trivialize a message? It's like giving a myspace bulletin to your whole friends list but telling them something less important than what is usually sent around.<p>I do like that you can use it to meet up with friends. That's a cool feature. | null | null | 6,075 | 5,987 | null | [

6,092 | comment | Alex3917 | 2007-03-24T21:12:18 | null | I believe telecocooning comes from Mizuko Ito's research, but Howard Rheingold cites it in Smart Mobs as well. <p>I think lowering the barriers does trivialize the message in some ways. For example, it would build less of a bond between any two individuals. However, I think it builds a tighter bond between the individual and their group of friends as a whole. | null | null | 6,081 | 5,987 | null | null | null | null |
