Welcome to episode #178 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. This is also episode #20 of Media Hacks and it's live from New York City. In a very rare moment, the entire Media Hacks crew - Chris Brogan, C.C. Chapman, Christopher S. Penn, Julien Smith and myself (with the exception of Hugh McGuire) - converged in New York City for the Web 2.0 Expo (and Web 2.Open). Wednesday night after dinner, we all met up at the Roger Smith Hotel (in Julien's chambers) and recorded the following rambles, tangents, swear words and non-relevant-to-marketing conversations. That being said, it got interesting, we wavered, we switched, we debated and we made a ton of inside jokes. In the end, the conversation looks at the audience, the new media and those swimming in the deep end of it all. Enjoy the conversation (but keep in mind this is not work safe)...

Our live studio audience: Whitney Hoffman and Chel Pixie. Recorded live at the Roger Smith Hotel during Web 2.0 Expo and Web 2.Open. Breaking news: this Podcast is not work safe. A little chat about Web 2.0 Expo. A brief discussion about Douglas Rushkoff and economies beyond money. The power of hashtags from Baratunde Thurston. The great Twitter controversy of Web 2.0 Expo. Are the people who are tweeting up-staging the speakers? Everything is meta. Do you measure up? The value of the individual tweet. It's all about being a part of the audience. If we don't tangent, what do we have? Talking about music is like dancing about architecture. Feeding systems. Red pill - blue pill... how we navigate the system. Christopher S. Penn whips out a knife (not kidding). Is Twitter getting tired? Chris Brogan and his Twitter Mafia. Twitter sensitivity - in terms of filling the Twitter stream. Thoughts around how well Seth Godin manages his time, effort and value delivered. The power of leverage. Guy Kawasaki and how he manages Twitter. Robert Scoble still thinks that Brogan is doing Twitter wrong. The Serendipity Engine. Awkward moments... they're important to the authenticity of this show. Networks have noise (deal with it). What is community? (we take a shot at this question). Equality of opportunity and equality of results. Communities need leaders. The Internet is not about equals... nor is communities.

After working as a software brand manager in the mid-1980s, Godin started Yoyodyne, one of the first Internet-based direct-marketing firms, with the notion that companies needed to rethink how they reached customers. His efforts caught the attention of Yahoo!, which bought the company in 1998 and kept Godin on as a vice president of permission marketing. Godin has produced several critically acclaimed and attention-grabbing books, including Permission Marketing, All Marketers Are Liars, and Purple Cow (which was distributed in a milk carton). In 2005, Godin founded Squidoo.com, a Web site where users can share links and information about an idea or topic important to them.Source

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!
