Remember Everything. | Evernote Corporation - 1 views

  •  
    Some brief notes from a Mac OS X perspective: http://www.wuala.com/grahamperrin/public/2009/04/11/evernote-fsc-001.png for an fseventer view of file system changes when Evernote Web Clipper in Safari produces a PDF, launches the main and helper applications, and syncs. No evidence there of Sync Services, which may be surprising given the otherwise fine use of available technologies.

    (Unlike Diigo) Evernote does not highlight web content, and is not oriented to group work or sharing.

    Adobe, AIR and open source: changes to, and expectations of, WebKit
  •  
    Will AIR applications be deployable in Google Chrome OS? Or, is this possibility reduced by Adobe's changes to WebKit? When and how will Adobe's changes to WebKit become available at webkit.org? Defocusing from Adobe: is there now less platform-specific code within WebKit? How soon might the goal — no platform-specific code — be realised?

    Applications that are designed for Google Chrome OS should run equally well in any standards based browser. If I do need to run Google Chrome OS on Mac OS X, I'll probably do so in VirtualBox.

    Thinking about laptops that are gathering dust … the OS will run on x86 or ARM. I wonder about other requirements: * memory * display resolution * etc..

    A new project, a natural extension of Google Chrome - the Google Chrome Operating System … to re-think what operating systems should be.

Influential Marketing Blog: 10 Stunning (And Useful) Stats About Twitter - 0 views

  • 21% (One Fifth) of Twitter accounts are empty placeholders.
  • Nearly 94% of all Twitter accounts have less than 100 followers.
  • March and April of 2009 were the tipping point for Twitter.
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • 150 followers is the magic numbe
  • A small minority creates most of the activity
  • 5% of users account for 75% of all activity, and 10% of users account for 86%. This seems to suggest that the site has managed to engage a mass audience beyond those who typically engage with social media.
  • Half of all Twitter users are not "active."
  • his leaves about 30% of users who have an account and have tweeted before, but happen to be inactive now.
  • Tuesday is the most active Twitter day
  • APIs have been the key to Twitter's growth & utility.
  • English still dominates Twitter
  • Twitter is being led by the social media geeks.
  • 150 followers is the magic number. In a particularly interesting data point from the survey, Sysomos found that Twitter users tended to "follow back" all their followers up until about 150 connections. Then the reciprocation rate fell off dramatically, which seems to indicate that this number may be the crossover point where people shift from using Twitter for more personal use to using it more for "lifecasting" their thoughts and actions to a community of people who they feel varying levels of connection to.

    Looking past these small points, the report does share some fairly interesting observations and stats as well if you dig a bit deeper. Here's my read on the 10 standout conclusions that the report offers to help you (and your brand) better understand the potential uses of Twitter

Twitter is Not a Conversational Platform - O'Reilly Radar - June 2009 - 0 views

  • It's not that conversation doesn't occur, it's that I don't think that networks of conversations are the best way to understand the Twitter information ecosystem. A long-tail distribution of information sharing entities (accounts) co-creating knowledge is better, I think.
  •  
    Serious essay by Mark Drapeau. Perhaps that explains why so many Twitterer are over 40: its demographic doesn't seem to be anything like myspace, youtube or orkut

Facebook: Connecting Us in Life and Death - 0 views

  • Facebook isn’t just a place to maintain communication anymore; it’s become a place to grieve, to pay final respects to someone, and connect with his/his friends. With every new memorialized profile page or group dedicated to a deceased user, Facebook is changing not only the way we hear about deaths, but the way we mourn them as well.
  • Death on Facebook’s Terms
  • Now, once Facebook finds out that a user has died, that person’s profile is automatically memorialized. What this means is that for thirty days, sensitive information (status updates and contact information, for example) is taken off the page, the profile can only be looked at by friends (the friend list is also locked), and people are able to post messages and photos on the person’s Wall.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Another popular option that Facebook offers is for friends and family members to start group pages dedicated to the deceased, such as “Tribute to ____” or “In Memory of ____,” where people can share memories and cherished pictures online. And for those who want the profile eliminated completely, Facebook will only honor the request if you’re a close relative and can prove the relation.

  • the first round clearly goes to Wave
  • collaborative technology that blurs the lines between email, wiki, SMS and Twitter
  • Wave integrates many of the features of disparate systems in common use

  • Microsoft's Bing, launched under the NineMSN banner in Australia
  • a shift from discrete applications to just one to handle all communications

      This is almost certainly too much for me to swallow.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      I like discrete applications.
  • ultimately it would mean a user could save all their work in the browser and dump it on the intertubes when they go back online
  • waves worked best on standards-compliant, Webkit browsers
  • emails (which could be translated between languages in real time) to a wave user
  • wave that was turned back into an e-mail
  • The same held true for instant messages and tweets
  • getting people to change their rusted-on habits
  • Microsoft's hand may have been moved by the launch of Wolfram|Alpha
  • Safari
