Ken Wilber has himself a cashflow paradise.As a platinum sponsor $500 per month, you get to make a free call to Ken Himself! I love the visuals, but am blown away by the charges - Who says unique content isn't valuable.

Be interesting to know what traffic the site gets and what the membership size is.

Adding value to social networks- Doing what comes naturally!



Bradley Horowitz is head of the Yahoo Search Marketplace technology group - and his analysis of the phenomenon of user-generated content ala flickr is brilliant.

His point "social software sites don’t require 100% active participation to generate great value."

How could I have missed RageBoy for so long




This is Chris Locke's(AKA RageBoy) using Bookpedia.. His blog is done in pure Thoughts Illustrated style and I am really glad to discover it.


chris says: "It's not often that software blows my mind, but the app I'm about to describe just did just that. I should warn you at the outset, however, that Bookpedia runs only under Mac OS X, and the barcode scanning feature (as described here anyway) requires an iSight cam -- either built-in or standalone. So if you're as much a book freak as I am, but you're using a PC, this is only going to make you drool. Sorry."

Malcolm's back - a conversation



Sadly, I can't do that kind of visual representation in my New Yorker writing, and I haven't tried in my books. But it's definitely something I want to pursue in the future.

Digital Storytelling - Which comes first: The Listener or the Story?



Although a bit long, I think this vlog vignette is a good example of digital storytelling. New York Workshop #1

Reminds me of what Dana Atchley was trying to do way back in the day. Dana Atchley Productions, Inc.

AttentionVsMeaningAdded


AttentionVsMeaningAdded

Dave Pollard is at it again . In this post on the use of graphics in gaining attention for his blog post, there is an interesting recursion - I get grabbed by his graphic, read the post and then grab the graphic to link to his blogpost. Pretty effective way to get the conversation going!

I used flickr for this post, the previous one was uploaded directly into blogger.

Perhaps this is where the audio/vlog component should start.

Your graphic caught my attention


Dave Pollard is at it again. Attention grabbing graphics are a primary reason that I continue to follow Dave's rather verbose blog - his pictures grab my attention - and I am seduced into reading further. This post graphic led me to read the detail supporting his 2X2 "take" on Attention vs. Meaning.
