John Battelle's Searchblog: Packaged Goods Media v. Conversational Media: Part Two

succeeding in the world of CM is going to be exceedingly difficult, because it forces you to embrace entirely unnatural acts. Not owning or controlling the content? Not owning or controlling the audience? Not having total control of your advertising and subscription revenue? Impossible!
Beth's Blog: Henry Jenkins discusses participatory media in Second Life

It’s what you do in Second Life that’s educational. There’s nothing intrinsically educational about Second Life. It’s certainly educational to have a world where most of the content is generated by the users– the opportunity to program and build stuff in Second Life is pretty awesome. Again, it’s what you do with it — technologies don’t have an inevitable consequence; it’s based on the choices we make on the ground, within our own societies, for how we use these technologies.
We have to find ways to use games not to escape reality, but to re-engage with reality,

We Need a Sceptic at twopointouch: web 2.0, blogs and social media
here's another current flap you might find amusing....

Dead 2.0 is a funny tech blog. The author posts anonymously under the name ‘Skeptic’, and enjoys deflating the hype around Web 2.0 startups with posts like ‘Funding the Web 2.0 gravy train‘ and ‘Secret to why you should invest in Dogster revealed…‘. One of his main targets has been Michael Arrington’s Techcrunch, the most prominent news source about these startups.
Now Nik Cubrilovic has discovered Skeptic’s identity, and so has Arrington. Apparently, he’s a VP at a prominent tech company that’s raised some serious funding.
Arrington’s understandably not happy about the Dead 2.0 ‘attack blog’, as he calls it. He writes:

A Few Key Findings
* A clear majority of respondents (63%) report that they started their corporate blogs because they felt the need to participate in the medium, rather than to satisfy a specific need; although more bloggers from larger companies indicated they started a blog to satisfy a specific need, still over 40% of larger companies started their blog because of a perceived need to be in the blogosphere.
* The majority of companies surveyed (76%) indicated that they have noticed an increase in media attention and/or website traffic as a result of their blog(s) -- suggesting that corporate blogs may be attracting a new and somewhat untapped online audience.
* The vast majority, or 75%, also felt that their initial goals for the blog(s) have been met.
* Less than half of the companies surveyed (42%) indicated that through blog monitoring they have found at least one specific post that has affected the company or a brand and in the vast majority of cases it has had a positive affect.
* Despite general success, 71% of respondents are not happy with the level of interaction on their blog(s).

Naked Conversations: 9 Random thoughts about Blogging

These are just a few random thoughts that popped into my mond on a flight home tonight. Each has something to do with posts I've read recently from people who apparently see the blogosphere differently than I do:
Business 2.0: Where to find the world's hottest startups - Aug. 10, 2006

take a look at our photo gallery to get a global view of our picks for the most influential or innovative Web 2.0 sites developed abroad.
We've divided them into six categories: social networks (like MySpace), social media (user-generated content like Flickr), webware (applications that work within your browser), aggregators (collections of content from all over, My Yahoo (Charts) style), mashups (such as sites that add features to Google (Charts) Maps), and Internet TV (like YouTube). Many fit into more than one category.

Hey Jason -- I see you posted about this on the Room 214 blog this morning... If we get all skeptical in the CC blog about Socializer, expect that people will notice the earlier post and we'll need to clarify that we rethought this tool - if so, that is.
