    Dear Marina,

    You would take Korea by storm.

    Freaking twitter is down again.That’s twice today as of this writing. It’s getting worse every week. Tweets are getting lost or fail to get sent. Sometimes they show up weeks later. I still hate twitter. gggrrrr…. The people on twitter are fantastic though. :mrgreen: I can live without twitter but I can’t live without the ability to communicate with all my friends. A new service needs to be invented which it has.

    Well twitter days are numbered. Mark my words. Yes! twitter’s days are numbered. I’ve seen a new product that would wipe out twitter from the face of the earth. It’s backed by a major company has millions to invest in the new tool that will change how we communicate on the web. Might even replace emails, IM, twitter, and even Facebook.

    Facebook.com has 87.4 million users, MySpace.com has 64.3 million, Google.com 141.2 for comparison, and twitter.com has 23 million users currently. Even with Oprah and Ashton pushing to get the word out about twitter, it’s not gaining steam like the other social networks are.

    Anyone else see the writing on the wall as I do?

    Excellent to see you on Korean TV!

    That AP feature can be picked up anywhere, and ‘has legs’ as they say in that Biz.

    Very Good for You! Congrats. :grin:

    Hello Captain Jack,
    I’m not focused on that type of detail as you have explained, as I am busy with very important number crunching for someone special :wink: , but, you piqued my curiosity. Can you divulge what that other product is and why do you think Twitter days are numbered?

  • http://wired.reddit.com/sexygeeks_2008/?s=top pedanticKarl

     
    For those of you who are new, or don’t remember the original site that started the AP HotForWords video watch, it is located over here. Marina has added additional countries to the list and I added one this past month.
    http://www.hotforwords.com/2009/02/20/associated-press/

    Each media outlet uses slightly a different set of scenes. Marina mentioned that the original interview was about 6 minutes long, where the media outlets show about 2-3 minutes of the interview. I haven’t seen the longer version yet.

    Hello CJ,

    I’m always about a year or so behind the times on the ‘next big thing’…I guess it works for me as I save a lot of time and effort in getting ‘invested’ in something that may go away…

    I tend to agree with you about Twitter – I only signed up about two weeks ago and haven’t figured out how I will actually use it much in my daily life except to keep informed on what others I am interested in might be doing…

    Seems great for Oprah and Ashton and Marina who have or want to create a ‘following’ – but I can text or EM my circle of contacts directly, although Twitter is a bit easier when it’s running.

    What is this new new product you have seen?

  • seesixcm6

    Dear Marina,
    Congratulations on that feature on Korean TV. It had many scenes of your home studio, lights, background, camera and scenes of editing videos on a Mac. You look good!
    I was stationed in Korea and actually learned the language reasonably well. Now, I can hardly understand the announcers. You have to practice to keep language skills. I didn’t use that language after the Army brought me home!
    Komap sumnida (Thanks).

    Hey Captain Jack,
    Are you referring to Google Wave?
    I’m watching a 1 hr 20 min video now.

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    LOL!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
    Yeap! You got it right! What do you think about that?

  • http://wired.reddit.com/sexygeeks_2008/?s=top pedanticKarl

     
    Wow! I got something right this year? :grin:

    I’m 30 minutes into the video and yes, I do like it esp. using Open Source, and the way the different parts work. Looks like a lot more functionality. There is a lot of stuff for me to get my arms around. So, I’ll be busy looking into that.

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    What you experience with twitter is very common with many users . :smile: Even I had issues with it until I found a use for it that worked for me. I could give a rats ass about who is doing this and that (unless it’s a live video of you doing something interesting). It’s freaking lame and too simple minded. The world is much smarter than that. This is obvious for the fact the facebook has not been in the media as much and is about 4 times more people using the service than twitter.
    Twitter (native api) does not offer photos, videos, and is limited to a 140 character message. (Yes, there are other services the complement this short coming but it would be better if it was all intergraded).It’s just to limiting. It was best used for cellphone back in the day. Now with Smart Phones with internet access, who need SMS? :roll:

    The other issue I have with twitter is you really don’t get any true use out of it until you get about 2,000 to 4,000 followers. It’s only now that I’m finding twitter useful and entertaining. One has to work their ass off to get those followers unless your a celebrity. :neutral: So twitter is really a benefit to celebrities who want to make contact with their fans. If they are lucky they will tweet back to your comments. I think that sort of thing is kind of nice to be able to make a bit more connection with untouchable celebs, but after that what do you have?

    Don’t get me wrong. I love the people I can communicate with. It’s expanded my world a bit more. I just don’t think twitter is the tool to make that happen. Many other people agree that many of these type of services fall short.

    The new product is called Google Wave. It’s not available yet but you can sign up for them to send you an email when it comes out.

    Go check the video out. It’s about 2 hour long demo but it will give you an idea about what they are working on.

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    You were just lucky. Many people have to get it wrong many times before they get it right. Look at Edison.

    Yeah, love the way they are going about this product. Really smart people there. I wish some of that smarts would bleed over to YouTube.

  • http://wired.reddit.com/sexygeeks_2008/?s=top pedanticKarl

     
    Regarding the smarts bleeding over to YT.

    That begs the question since YT and Google are now linked up to a point. Also, YT was not a Google creation, so buying it made more sense than to develop their own and compete head on. By buying YT, they really bought the market place and the idea rather than the technology.

    So, my guess is that eventually, the Google technology will replace the YT technology as we know it. Kind of like the Netscape thing, but AOL mucked that up.

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    coComment? Oh yea I remember them. Good example of a great idea combined with poor business decisions. They were focused on making the product pretty and the heck with ease of use. I’m still confused on how it works after all these years.

    I have been using Google for my spell checker. It works much better than other products I have tried. Now Google has a new spell checker that totally rocks. It looks at the sentence to chooses the correct word that fits. Then it can even do a live correcting as you type. I type to fast and words like ‘the’ become ‘teh’. A freaking computer can be programmed to figure that out and fix it on the fly. My old computer used to have that function from some 3rd party program.

    Oh and another cool thing about google wave is that it will do language translation live. Yes as you type it will try to translate the best it can. It’s not perfect but at least its a great start.

    Shhh, WhiteSmoke is an advertiser on this site. I saw a WhiteSmoke Ad just below the main video in the upper right a few hours ago. Of course, now that we mentioned WhiteSmoke a few times, that Ad should re-appear any minute now. :smile:

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    Google has their own video. I think I have a video or two up on it somewhere. It’s just they failed at marketing it. Yes it was much bigger than them so it’s alway a better idea to buy out the competition if you have the money.
    With good marketing and a forward looking vision you can sell garbage to anyone. But in time if your garbage fails to improve and expand it will be short lived.

    It’s not the technology that is the issue with YT. It’s how the see their market and where it’s going. YT success was to give everyone a chance to SHARE. It gave the people a voice. That’s what make YT great. When they tried to introduce network TV into the picture they cut their own throats. When they should have been helping the people making more entertaining videos. Also YT no longer has their heart into the business. I could so go over there and spend a day with them. I would rock their world. In a year they would be buying me a Jet (but I would rather have a better yacht)

    Have you heard? AOL days are numbered also. They have been sucking Time-Warner dry. Now they are cut off. I don’t think their current model will last long. It’s sad for they do have some great services.

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    Oh really? I don’t get any ads on my computer. I better go and edit that then. Thanks for letting me know. :wink:

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    Funny you should mention that number crunching. I was just thinking about that about 6 hours ago. I wondered what was up with that project. Keep me posted. :wink:

    Hey Captain Jack, did you know that Google video no longer accepts uploads. Eventually, they will phase that part of the site out. Also, Google’s video upload was more complex than YouTube’s, which was another advantage and draw to YT. Google is promoting YT.

    Interesting shots of your video studio, Marina. Very tidy generally, and the modern equipment (probably state of the art and relatively low budget thanks to modern technology), was interesting. White carpet. Physiologically cheering with it’s brightness. “THX 1138″ it’s not, because it has texture and therefore has warmth. The drug importer in “Get Shorty” had a white carpet. Had to monitor what people were tracking across the floor. There are rules with white carpet. One of my childhood dreams was a vista view of the universe, at once a beautiful flowing smooth white sheet that went out endlessly in all directions, and suddenly it was like crumpled paper with very sharp crumples, still white, and then back suddenly back to very smooth and flowing. All and all a pleasant, non-verbal, dream about white. But in real life, I can’t have white carpet because I’m a caveman.

    reutersYouTube BrandWatch is The Big Money’s exploration into how the world’s best-known businesses, so adept at managing their images offline, are being perceived online, where control is harder to come by. Every week, The Big Money features a corporate-themed video that’s had significant viewership on YouTube: some approved, some unapproved, some mashed-up combinations of the two. And we’ll ask our readers to vote on how the video affects the brands.
