SquawkBox – July 3, 2008 – Greg Clinton with Talk Soup, and a conversation about identi.ca

July 3, 2008

On today’s show we had special guest Greg Clinton, developer of a new application called Talk Soup that lets people easily start podcasting. Available at the URL http://talk.appspot.com/ , the application involves two people simply calling each other, talking for some period of time and then at the end of the call both agreeing to [...]

Congratulations to Ken Camp

May 16, 2008

I’ve been wondering where Ken and Sheryl have been on the SquawkBox recently. Last night I found out. They’re moving again, just two weeks after moving the last time. A new job in Spokane in a new (to Ken) but related industry. Congrats! And now that I’ve outed you, Ken, we’ll be expecting the full [...]

BarCamp Radio 1: Converged Billing

April 18, 2008

I’m going to judge BarCamp Radio 1 a success. This morning’s session on Converged Billing, ably led by BT’s Jonathan Jensen, was enjoyable, informative, and very very interactive. Frankly, I had no idea that billing could be such an engaging topic. As Jonathan pointed out, the bill is the single largest touch point that any [...]

SquawkBox becomes BarCampRadio today

April 18, 2008

This morning we’re going to try a little different format, which I’ve named BarCamp Radio. BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering — an unconference — born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. BarCamp’s, however, happen infrequently. Barcamp radio is an experiment to try to bring the enthusiasm and intensity [...]

Barcamp Radio this Friday

April 16, 2008

I’m working on a new concept for the SquawkBox on Friday, modeled on BarCamp. The idea is pretty simple — we’ll hold a couple of BarCamp sessions (dubbed BarCamp Radio) in place of the regular SquawkBox. Like BarCamp, the only real rule is that there are no rules. Attendees need to lead a session, suggest [...]

Squawk Box April 16

April 16, 2008

This morning we delved into thethe topic we couldn’t cover yesterday, which is the fascinating Economist special report on Mobile Nomadism. The Economist talks about talks about the impact of always-on communications on business, education, relationships, architecture, and more. We added observations on how nomadic work styles are changing business, peppered with a liberal selection [...]

Squawk Box Preview April 15

April 15, 2008

There are several interesting threads on mobile this morning that are worth drawing attention to. The first is Mowser founder Russell Beattie’s declaration that the mobile web is dead. His thesis is that as browsers become more sophisticated, standard content will do. As an acolyte of Moore’s Law, I don’t necessarily disagree with Beattie. Why [...]

Squawk Box April 14 – the business of Art

April 14, 2008

Well, well. This morning’s Squawk Box had the promised discussion about Art vs Business, which went fairly well. Randall Howard made the very good point that we often get the funding of the arts mixed up with the business of art, and that really they are two separate things. Most people spoke out against any [...]

SquawkBox April 11 – Guest Joe Sipher

April 11, 2008

On today’s SquawkBox we hosted Joe Sipher of Pinger. It was a pretty interesting call. Until today I really thought of Pinger as being an audio substitute for text messaging. Not so! Their Pinger Voicemail sounds way cool! Does your voicemail system let you reply to voice mail with another voice message? Notify you with [...]
