- So I actually think minimalist is just starting to come around again. So many blogs that I read have so much going on, which is both distracting and results in huge page loads. We're moving away from ...
- I haven't checked in a while, so good to know, thanks !
- WFAN has been streaming live on their site for the past year or so.
- Yeah, it falls along that continuum to me that people want what they want when they want it. Live sports is a perfect example of that, and technology and new means of content distribution are opening up ...
- Don't feel bad. Robert is a bit high on himself. To him, if you haven't done what he's done, you're not credible. A lot of the tech bloggers (Chris Anderson, especially) are into this because ...

ESPN to live stream baseball, and the Mad Dog moves to Sirius Satellite Radio started by Eric Berlin
Technology is revolutionizing the ways in which content can be distributed and consumed. That’s a fancy-ish way of saying that more stuff can now be seen in more places than ever before. That turn has increased the desire for consumers to demand more of what they want when and where they want it. Therefore, the […]
A personal take on Technorati’s acquisition of Blogcritics started by Eric Berlin
Huge congrats to Blogcritics!
It was announced today that Blogcritics – an online magazine-meets-blog community that I have a long and continuing relationship with – is being acquired by Technorati:
Today, we’ve announced the acquisition of Blogcritics.org. If you’re a blogger, you might be familiar with them (and they’ve been part of the Technorati Media […]

Looking up (and down) at the blogosphere’s ivory tower started by Eric Berlin
I spend a lot of time reading blogs. Part of the fun of that is sharing what I’ve learned and what I think via Google Reader shared items, FriendFeed, Twitter, and of course here at the old Online Media Cultist stomping grounds.

Imagine an Amazon Kindle with Shelfari-like features started by Eric Berlin
There are a handful of really good places to discover books and interact and share with other booklovers. Amazon is the titan of this space, of course, but there are other scrappy contenders that serve some cool functions, particularly on the social media side of things.
Shelfari has long been a standout in terms of […]

Why would a Fox News SVP call Facebook “the leading social network”? started by Eric Berlin
Weird news item #1: Fox News is expanding its presence on Facebook
Fox News Channel, which is part of the same company (News Corporation) as MySpace, is expanding its social networking presence on MySpace’s leading social networking competition, Facebook. The New York Times speculates that the reason may be due to MySpace’s “existing partnership with MSNBC. […]

On the interwebs, simpler and smaller equals better started by Eric Berlin
It’s counterintuitive. Fewer people can accomplish more than more people. Simple ideas are more powerful than complex ones.
This is the basic argument of a great little piece called The power of small teams, by Avi Muchnick, and in terms of the web worlds, I very much agree.
Muchnick relates Jeff Bezos’ concept of the […]

Top online news destination: MSNBC started by Eric Berlin
Stumbled across some interesting data (via Lost Remote) running down the top 30 “Online Current Events & Global News Destinations for July 2008.”
MSNBC rolls in as the top destination, with Yahoo! News coming in at a close second. CNN, AOL, and the New York Times round out the top 5, with Google News sitting at […]

Which numbers are in the galactic neighborhood of being the right numbers? started by Eric Berlin
I hear Alexa ranks thrown around with regularity, and I do it all the time myself. Everyone knows that its ranking system is far from perfect… and yet it still plays an important role in how websites are thought about, and even valued. There are a number of other third-party website traffic analytics tools that […]
The rise and fall of Twitter started by Eric Berlin
It’s the nerdy parody sensation sweeping the interwebs… enjoy.
Will Twitter’s new follower limit limit its growth? started by Eric Berlin
While FriendFeed is enjoying a wave of positive press and the sweet sweet glow of early adopter geek love, Twitter has been fighting off performance issues and the missives of disgruntled core users for what feels like many months now. To be fair, the dreaded “fail whale” has been less visible of late, meaning that […]
Kindle could be “Amazon’s iPod” started by Eric Berlin
I’ve certainly been a huge and vocal fan of the Amazon Kindle ever since I got my paws on one earlier this year.
While there was a good bit of early skepticism about Amazon’s nifty electronic book reader, projections are now being arced high and skyward. As in more than $1 billion in sales and […]

Opening up the Salon started by Eric Berlin
I’ve always been a big fan of Salon.com, though I’ve never been a huge participant in its community (such as The Well). I’ve simply enjoyed its consistently strong writing and opinion pieces. Along with Slate, it’s in the highest tier of web magazine publications. During the dark days between the web 1.0 bust up and […]
Things are getting more Minority Report each day started by Eric Berlin
Checking out Microsoft’s wondrous Surface technology given shape in the form of a sphere led me to think about how life is getting closer to the jaw droppingly cool technology displayed in the fictional film Minority Report each day. Wikipedia defines Surface as “a Multi-touch product from Microsoft which is developed as a software and […]
World Webby News: China Olympics and the interwebs started by Eric Berlin
Lots of Interwebs news with relation to China these days, in part because of the upcoming Olympics, and in part because China is a big big deal.
The biggest story along these lines is that Olympics highlights will be made available via YouTube. While this deal is being called a “financial deal [that is] is […]

When does an excerpt tip over from flattery to content theft? started by Eric Berlin
Relative newcomer on the social media scene socialmedian describes itself as “a social news network that connects people with personalized news and information.” Personalized social news seems like a worthy niche to go after, and I wish founder Jason Goldberg and crew well.
socialmedian popped up on my personalized radar today as I noticed a […]

Lots and lots of white space, super minimalist. Now, I get wanting to strip down design to get a really clean look, and Mark Hendrickson notes that the idea was to move toward a less bloated looking and faster loading site.
I get all of that. […]
