VON: Where the Bloggers Are

by alec on September 12, 2006

Tomorrow’s blogger panel promises to be a good event, with participation from Jeff Pulver, Brough Turner, Andy Abramson, and Dan York.  Amazingly, there will probably be fewer than 1/3 of the bloggers attending the show, up on the stage.  Martin Geddes, Russell Shaw, Ted Wallingford, and Jim Courteny are here also.  RocketBoom’s Andrew Baron was busy watching Jeff Pulver’s keynote today as well.

So, here’s an open invitation to all bloggers, and wannabe bloggers.  Help us out on the blogger panel.  Make sure you come, and come prepared with tough questions.  Be opinionated.  Let us know what you’re thinking about!

What’s web 2.0 about, asks Ted Leonsis.  Well, it’s about consumers.  The web has put the steering wheel in the hands of consumers, and nobody is giving it up.  And that’s going to cause some disruption amongst traditional media companies. One of his big epiphanies this summer was the idea of “marketing to algorithms”.  The [...]

VON Day 2: Pulver Keynote

September 12, 2006

Jeff has started by welcoming all of the delegates from both the voice community, and the new delegates from the video community. He has started by talking about a little history.  Voice is an application, he says, but we’ve known that for 10 years. We get a little history vis a vis the VON coalition, and [...]
