In this episode, John Federico (twitter: @gadgetboy), Craig Calder (twitter: @ccalder), Ken Gellman (twitter: @kengellman) and Steve Hatch (twitter:@shatch) opine about: Craig was featured in articles on Forbes.com and AdAge.com representing TravelZoo Craig s team at TravelZoo won the SAMMY Award (MediaPost s Social Media Award) for The Top Branded Twitter Campaign beating out MadMen and M s a good thing. jf.) Breaking News! Twitter has new avatars! Twitter will add geo-location as a built-in feature. Don t worry, it will be opt-in. John is using a combination of BrightKite, FourSquare and GoWalla for location-based status updates. Twitter doesn t want to have to deal with subpeonas - after 14 days, the location metadata associated with your tweets is expunged. Project Retweet is an effort to redesign the user experience of retweets - this time, officially by twitter as opposed to the community. Tweetie already supports the Project Retweet API extensions John has decided to add video to the mix during ODM recording sessions. They ll be posted in the show notes on occassion. Steve equates the retweet with FriendFeed s and Facebook s Like feature and that it will ultimately morph into the same nomenclature and user experience. Craig believes that retweet etiquette requires the retweeter to add value in some way to the retweet. (The value IS the retweet! It s retweet-worthy! ) Mashable asks if people are ready for the features of Project Retweet. Justine Bateman wasn t as the change caused some confusion until she realized what was going on - and she s Twitter-savvy. What about people who aren t? Apparently her BlackBerry Twitter client (UberTwitter) already supports the Project Retweet API extensions as well. Justin Timberlake has signed on to appear in the movie The Accidental Billionaire based on the book of the same name. 27% of people access twitter through dedicated applications. How could a company like comScore track that? Do they track API calls? Do people in their panel note the fact that they use Twitter apps? Craig will ask and report back. Twitter just raised $100 million to support the build-out of all these service updates - at an approximate $1 billion valuation! Jason Fried s Satirical post about the 37Signals $100 Billion valuation pokes fun at Twitter s recent funding and valuation Where s our Audible sponsorship, damnit?! Jonathan? Are you listening? Livestream launches Livepack - the world s first solution for wireless live streaming at HD quality Craig rediscovers TweetDeck and loves it. A random tweet of his was included in an IgniteNYC presentation. (With attribution, of course.) John wil be speaking at Web2Open at the Web 2.0 Expo New York on Social Media Hacks Craig shares a Social Media Hack that will make its way into my presentation! Send any social media hacks, tips or tricks you have to comments@odmcast.com Google Sidewiki was released for FireFox and IE browsers - it s a distributed commenting/social discussion system Remember ThirdVoice? It was the original distributing commenting system that was launched - and died - during the dotcom boom. Danny Sullivan used Sidewiki in a unique way (http://bit.ly/3bbzUY), commenting on Seth Godin s post about Squidoo s Brands in Place service. Not sure why people were so ruffled by Brands in Place. In a way, it s not much different than allowing anyone to create a space on GetSatisfaction.com. Google introduces Google Frame for IE Browsers, bringing the standards compliant Webkit rendering engine to Internet Explorer - and a 10x increase in speed. Surprise! Microsoft doesn t like it. We hope it will push Microsoft to make IE much better than it is currently. Mike Abundo from 901am writes about The Delusions of Carol Bartz. Comparing Yahoo s decline with AOL s decline. Yahoo is selling off Yahoo Small Business AOL s decline was hastened by the rise of broadband. Yahoo s decline was hastened by lack of focus and competing services. Looking for a new gig? You can probably make a difference at Yahoo or AOL - and they re hiring. iRex announced the DR800SG with global 3G downloads and partnerships with Barnes t!
