The Author Revolution
There is a secret in this excellent slideshare from +Mark Traphagen SMX West presentation - the Author Revolution. If we think of Google's recent moves in aggregate we see a macro-pattern.
Google wants their democratic engine to work. Democracy can't work if votes can be bought or when votes are otherwise fraudulent (intimidation, or being more crafty and sneaky). The web has always been about the push and pull of opposing forces.
I've had fascinating conversations with "black hat" cowboys who defend their actions as policing the system. There may be some truth in their assertion since they work just as hard as white hats (sometimes harder).
When I point out the fact they work just as hard they agree and identify their "rebel cause" as motivation. It is not a lazy man's way to make a million bucks (black ... more »

This is the right theme for your local market around where you live to go with real time contact, sharing, swapping, trading and perhaps dealmaking on your doorstep ...clearly a future role for FB/G+ I am pleased to see these apps emerging. I'm sceptical about flirting and dating as that's so shallow and has a pervy creepy edge to it that causes disdain. Business is different we all do business.

Video: Here's a short 18 minute video that summarizes what the Collaborative Economy means to corporations.
This speech is designed to: Define what the disruption is, give examples, put numbers behind the economic impact, identify the market drivers, and most importantly, present the Value Chain which clearly tells how corporations can leverage this movement --and avoid disruption.
This was the first time I had presented our research in public, if you found it helpful, please share with folks at corporations, or agencies and software companies that serve them.

More than the Sum of Us
"When you look into the abyss, the abyss looks into you." said Nietzsche. He was talking about the connection between the observer and the observed (what Heisenberg enshrined in his Uncertainty Principle) where the more you look and the more you understand the less certain you become.
The moment everything devolves into the realm of statistical probability you get the manifestation of the Quantum Mechanical world where everything is possible but some things are more probable but only when viewed from a certain perspective which then makes everything relative.
A post I did not intend to write, for instance, (http://goo.gl/tyFzF) mentioned fishing and a fisherman I met on a chance encounter. I do not talk about fishing – like ever. +Bruce Marko mentioned his grandfather was a fisherman, +Nikolaos Bogioglou mentioned that he fishe... more »

Microsoft are chasing Google and Apple down hard yet are still neglecting Community so haven't yet cottoned onto +Google+.
We will know Microsoft get Community when they acquire Facebook and it will come as MarkZ would make a great CEO to re-invigorate a tired old lion.
To "most people" software is much of a muchness, looks the same and does roughly the same thing.
"In a Sharing Economy Community is King" thus the real battle will be offline face to face in the clubs, bars and hotels not just the cloud. After the NSA debacle humans will always doubt the cloud from hereon in but that won't stop them using it. They can't.
Google do not fear Microsoft or Apple. The only company Google fear are Amazon and Jeff Bezos is a large shareholder in Twitter the only search engine capable of challenging Google. Twitter lacks resources and... more »

Who arranged the glorious London weather?
#throughglass
From the roof of the NYSE London building at the LeWeb Speaker Dinner last night. I've been in London 10+ times and it's never been so glorious.
I LOVE these automatic animated GIFs that Google+ makes.
Just upload a bunch of images of the same scene and Google+ automatically makes these.

I do love these animated GIFs. Are you watching live? That's at http://live.leweb.co/ Lots of great presentations. I'll be on stage as part of the "Three Glassholes" panel at about 4:30 p.m. London Time (in a little more than an hour).
In this photo, which was taken at the speaker dinner last night, +Loic Le Meur goofs off on the roof of the NYSE with +John Battelle and +Jeremiah Owyang .

Google is the Wolrd's Biggest Media Owner
There is a direct connection between content and data. The first is needed in order for the second to arise and Google is, at the moment, ahead of every media company on the planet.

London/Cambridge just became the Internet of Things leader in my mind
I'm hanging out at Mind Candy all day in London meeting with a ton of interesting startups launching on Friday at http://springboard.com demo day (Rackspace UK arranged for me to meet a ton of its startups). This accelerator recently joined TechStars, by the way.
What is this? It's an Internet of Things startup accelerator. Really mind-blowing new startups.
I wish I could tell you more, for instance, what this little thing is. But I'm embargoed until demo day on Friday.
Any guesses what this is? First correct guess wins a Basis health monitor (costs $250) from me. And, no, I'm not talking about the Apple mouse. :-)
Having a great time in London. I wish every day brought so many cool startups into my view.

+Colin Lucas-Mudd London's Techcity map now indicates 1384 companies and if each one requires £5m on average to scale globally to say 50 countries that's £7bn of working capital to put London in the super league alongside you in The Valley
http://venturebeat.com/2012/02/07/venture-capitalists-favor-silicon-valley-but-silicon-alley-is-rising-fast/
Despite a still sluggish economy, venture capital firms poured a total of $28.4 billion into 3,673 deals last year—one of the highest levels of dollar investments of the decade—with the majority of deals going into the software and biotechnology industries.

a nice read but way oversimplified to believe the either or argument. Google is in a head to head with Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Yahoo, MS whether it likes it or not and none of them will lie down to be "out glued" and "out-linked" for ads all around their services. Endless features and tools make little difference when 99% cannot keep up with what's already there. It's time for physical learning events and classroom training for the mass market to understand you can run your business big or small internally on +Google+ and externally on +Google+. After All +Google are sharing "their intranet" with the world. The glue is the road the +Google products the destination.
