A.Connector Cast #9
*RSS feeds wants to be free-don’t lock them up or water them down-my experience with Freakonomics, good conversation on Neville’s blog here. Learn the culture and embrace it if you want to be embraced back. True Hoop an example of good transition to big media site that maintained good faith with original readers.
Update: Here is an excellent post by Scott Karp that addresses rss feed issue perfectly. Can you win betting against the internet?
*New Media marketing success stories: Hugh Mcleod mentioned in Business Week here for Stormhoek, Twitter as human powered search, JC Hutchins successful campaign to reach listeners resulting in a writing deal. Mention new Asian Variations free web album-participate in viral marketing campaign.
*Twitter is like a news teletype or the local bar; ephemeral and virtually live(the way I view it) Facebook like the newspaper.
Hope you enjoyed the episode-feel free to leave comments on blog, by email or Voice mail and help continue the conversation.
