    From what I understand of Elgg, it's a tool to generate a social network, competing with things like Ning and Drupal Gardens (or with Drupal itself?) Would be nice to check the demo site but you need a user-name and password to access it. Tried guest/guest as in the good old days, but of course it didn't work... Facyla, give us a code please?

Adding A Social Layer To Gmail Just Became A SocialWok In The Park - 4 views

socialwok

shared by fishead ...*∞º˙ on 23 Jan 10 - Cached
  • At last year’s TechCrunch50 conference, Socialwok made a big splash, winning the award for best demopit startup and launching its enterprise-friendly, FriendFeed-like layer for Google Apps. The web-based application was praised for launching a social network that wrapped around the very unsocial Google Apps. Today, the startup is launching a gadget to allow users access all the features of Socialwok without leaving Gmail.

    FishMan - this sounds a little bit like Ning, a socnet for all folks (build your own!) Why do you think there is no monetization by any one of these efforts? That's a key part to what I'm imagining for HBSN. Hmmmmm

    simple--when it's free already, no one wants to pay. I still think the key to monetization is to give the use control of his/her information, let them set a price for their attention, and then charge advertisers a fee to access those individuals with targeted advertising. Those users who exhibit a higher rate of response to targeted advertising get ranked higher in the value chain, telling potential advertisers that these individuals respond better/more often, and everyone wins. The service that provides this exchange medium can take a 'house' cut of the fees, and also provide a pay premium service for a higher tier.
  • Jack Logan on 23 Jan 10
     
    This is the same way ad.ly works with Twitter, so they say - http://twitter.com/adlyads - however, there are other ways to do this. Think of ancestry.com - they charge an annual fee of $150 or so. I think they have a terrible UI but they're very successful. I've been a member of ancestry.com for a while and am now just getting interested again, because you can have your DNA collected (god, don't tell Kurt! lol) and get your ancestors back to Africa (or Iraq!). iPhone app developers get 70%/Apple 30%.
  • Kurt Laitner on 23 Jan 10
     
    I'm vacuuming your house before I leave Jack. I like fish's direction on monetization, as one of several parallel channels, and I would rif on the give user control of their own information to say that one's content is on one's OWN SERVER and resolved to the service, that is TRUE CONTROL. then every access request can be monetized in whatever way you wish (value for value, social currency, real money...) every piece of content comes with a privacy wrapper and a pay wrapper

    not to mention buying and selling structures, bent can make some killer music ontology and presentation to go with it and we can then all use/buy/value exchange for it.
  • fishead ...*∞º˙ on 23 Jan 10
     
    Checking into ad.ly, their pay rate and advertisers aren't based on your attention, they are based strictly on the number of followers you have. Their whole model is wrapped around slight-of-hand diversion. They figure that by dropping an ad tweet into your own personal twitterstream on an every other day basis, will appear innocent enough on the surface, that some (>1%?) will mistake it for something you personally tweeted and since they follow you blindly like hooded lemurs in Jonestown, they;ll drink your koolaid and make a buying decision. Seems a bit underhanded to me. And they aren't paying me because I might be a good target, they are paying me because I have a high enough unwashed masses quotient to justify the exposure. I set my rate for $5000 figuring that even though I have fewer than 100 followers, they are quality followers and not bots (except for Kurt) and that my endorsement to them is worth a great deal. So far, the till's empty.

  • - Uses the WebKit Open Source Browser Engine (in the demo we saw, Safari was the browser being used) - Uses the following Open standards: HTML, JavaScript, CSS, (All Ajax), XMPP, H.264 - Server runs on Linux, MacOS X - Utilized OpenAjax Metadata Specification, so it can utilize any widgets - It's being ported to IE 6+ and Firefox
  • To be clear, IBM is not developing another browser. The client part of this project is based on a set of browser-based open standards technologies. They will in time (2010 timeframe) be integrated into existing browsers such as Safari, Firefox and IE.

Was Facebook's greatest move to skip usernames? | Royal Pingdom - 2 views

Social naming conventions

shared by fishead ...*∞º˙ on 18 Jan 10 - Cached
  • Was Facebook’s greatest move to skip usernames? Posted in Main on January 18th, 2010 by Pingdom On most social networks, you have to create a username when you sign up. Not only that, that username has to be unique, no duplicates allowed. Facebook on the other hand just takes your real name, no username, and it doesn’t matter if there’s someone already on the site with the same name as yours. There are probably hundreds of factors that add up to explain Facebook’s success, but the question is if using real names instead of usernames isn’t one of the key features that have helped Facebook grow as large as it has. We think there are three main reasons why using real names and not requiring usernames has helped Facebook grow bigger than any other social network on the planet.

    Sega and HEAT.net have officially announced that the online gaming web site will shut down on October 31, 2000. HEAT.net provides game-matching services and hosts online games including 10Six. HEAT.net members will receive a special e-mail announcement including exclusive offers for SegaNet membership. Sega has decided to redirect the HEAT.net resources to SegaNet to create a more comprehensive online gaming portal. 10Six will continue operation at www.10Six.com.

    I posted this as a historical note. Heat.net was the first place to serial number their game items, ie. a truck or gun acquired is not one of a class, but rather a unique item. this amplifies the value concept related to the item.

    Look Jack--this is how you monetize. basic functionality is free--bookmarking one item to one group at a time. Premium account gets added functionality to do more stuff faster. Free crack pipe with every purchase.

ignore the code: Realism in UI Design - 2 views

interface feature

shared by fishead ...*∞º˙ on 24 Jan 10 - No Cached
  • The history of the visual design of user interfaces can be described as a gradual change towards more realism. As computers have become faster, designers have added increasingly realistic details such as color, 3D effects, shadows, translucency, and even simple physics. Some of these changes have helped usability.
  • In other areas, the improvements are questionable at best. Graphical user interfaces are typically full of symbols. Most graphical elements you see on your screen are meant to stand for ideas or concepts
  • Details and realism can distract from these concepts.
