			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Ordering viagra no rx</b>, I get Twitter now.  <b>Prescription viagra</b>, <a href="http://twitter.com/mattmcalister"><img src="http://www.mattmcalister.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/twitter-baby-announce.jpg" alt="Announcing baby with Twitter" align="right" border="0" hspace="10" vspace="10" /></a>Until last week it seemed a bit silly to me, perhaps overhyped, <b>home made viagra</b>.  <b>Lowcostviagra</b>, But after using it to share updates of my son's birth with friends and family members distributed across several time zones in near real-time, I've become a new fan of this fantastic tool, <b>words for viagra</b>.  <b>Sample pack viagra</b>, Whereas I may have used email to announce his arrival before Twitter (something I also did after the fact), I was able to Twitter the experience of my son's arrival throughout the day using my phone to simply send a little bit of info at a time via SMS, <b>viagra for sale in sudan</b>.  <b>Rio gallegos viagra</b>, Email would have been way too cumbersome for nearly live storytelling like this.  Plus, the self-selective nature of it allowed some people to follow my posts who I probably wouldn't have thought to email, <b>ordering viagra no rx</b>.</p>
<p>Flickr served a similar role for my daughter's birth nearly 3 years ago, <b>pfzier viagra</b>, <b>Buy viagra in canada</b>, and it was invaluable to me again this time now that my mother and mother-in-law are both Flickr users finally.  The photo-hungry grandparent is insatiable when it comes to newborns, <b>viagra or similar in pakistan</b>.  <b>Viagra and similar products</b>, But Twitter adds a really nice new dimension to the way we share bits of our daily experience.</p>
<p>It was great knowing that my little brother in London and my older brother in Los Angeles were getting text messages on their phones as this major life event unfolded for me, <b>lowest online viagra</b>.  <b>Viagra tablets for sale</b>, Twitter made it feel like they were part of the experience, like bystanders, <b>viagra in aldershot</b>, <b>Missouri MO Mo.</b>, even if the details were as boring as where we ate dinner or what was on the TV in the hospital waiting room (Fresh Choice and Maury Povich, in case you're interested).</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mattmcalister/1403031257/"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1123/1403031257_9a5867561b_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Big sis checks out her new baby brother" align="right" border="0" hspace="10" vspace="10" /></a>Somehow I think the inability to share those inane details with the people we care about is exactly what makes people feel isolated in this modern distributed world.  Well, maybe the world doesn't need more meaningless data out there, but it certainly needs better ways to get the right data to the right people at the right time.</p>
<p>Twitter does just that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy generic viagra</b>, The recent blog frenzy over hyperlocal media inspired me to have a look at Outside.in again.</p>
<p><a href="http://outside.in/Potrero_Hill"><img src="http://www.mattmcalister.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/outside-in-screenshot-potrero-hill.jpg" border="0" align="right" vspace="10" hspace="10"/></a><br />
It's not just the high profile backers and the intense competitive set that make Outside.in worth a second look.  There's something very compelling in the way they are connecting data that seems like it matters.</p>
<p>My initial thought when it launched was that this idea had been done before too many times already.  Topix.net appeared to be a dominant player in the local news space, not to mention similar but different kinds of local efforts at startups like Yelp and amongst all the big dotcoms.</p>
<p>And even from their strong position, Topix's location-based news media aggregaton model was kind of, I don't know, uninteresting, <b>buy generic viagra</b>.  I'm not impressed with local media coverage these days, in general, <b>where to buy viagra in kent england</b>, so why would an aggregator of mediocre coverage be any more interesting than what I discover through my RSS reader.</p>
<p>But I think Outside.in starts to give some insight into how local media could be done right...how it could be more interesting and, more importantly, useful.</p>
<p>The light triggered for me when I read Jon Udell's post on "the data finds the data".  He explains how data can be a vector through which otherwise unrelated people meet eachother, <b>Viagra in jamaica</b>, a theme that continues to resonate for me.  <b>Buy generic viagra</b>, Media brands have traditionally been good at connecting the masses to eachother and to marketers.  But the expectation of how directly people feel connected to other individuals by the media they share has changed.</p>
<p>Whereas the brand once provided a vector for connections, data has become the vehicle for people to meet people now.  Zip code, for example, enables people to find people.  So does marital status, <b>where to buy viagra locally</b>, date and time, school, music taste, work history.  There are tons of data points that enable direct human-to-human discovery and interaction in ways that media brands could only accomplish in abstract ways in the past, <b>buy generic viagra</b>.</p>
<p>URLs can enable connections, too.  <b>Viagra forsale</b>, <a href="http://blog.jonudell.net/2007/07/02/data-finds-data-then-people-find-people/">Jon goes on to explain</a>:</p>
<p><blockquote>"On June 17 I bookmarked this item from Mike Caulfield... On June 19 I noticed that Jim Groom had responded to Mike’s post. Ten days later I noticed that Mike had become Jim’s new favorite blogger.  <b>Buy generic viagra</b>, I don’t know whether Jim subscribes to my bookmark feed or not, but if he does, that would be the likely vector for this nice bit of manufactured serendipity. I’d been wanting to introduce Mike at KSC to Jim (and his innovative team) at UMW. It would be delightful to have accomplished that introduction by simply publishing a bookmark."</blockquote></p>
<p>Now, Outside.in allows me to post URLs much like one would do in Newsvine or Digg any number of other collaborative citizen media services.  But Outside.in leverages the zip code data point as the topical vector rather than a set of predetermined one-size-fits-all categories.  It then allows miscellaneous tagging to be the subservient navigational pivot, <b>viagra mfg by</b>.</p>
<p>Suddenly, I feel like I can have a real impact on the site if I submit something, <b>buy generic viagra</b>.  If there's anything near a critical mass of people in <a href="http://outside.in/94107">the 94107 zip code on Outside.in</a> then it's likely my neighbors will be influenced by my posts.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.unionsquareventures.com/2007/02/outsidein.html">Fred Wilson</a> of Union Square Ventures explains:</p>
<p><blockquote>"They've built a platform that placebloggers can submit their content to. Their platform "tags" that content with a geocode -- an address, zip code, or city -- and that renders a new page for every location that has tagged content. If you visit outside.in/10010, <b>Canada viagra overnight delivery</b>, you'll find out what's going on in the neigborhood around Union Square Ventures.  <b>Buy generic viagra</b>, If you visit outside.in/back_bay, you'll see what's going on in Boston's Back Bay neighborhood."</blockquote></p>
<p>Again, the local online media model isn't new.  In fact, it's old.  CitySearch in the US and UpMyStreet in the UK proved years ago that a market does in fact exist in local media somehwere somehow, but the market always feels fragile and susceptible to ghost town syndrome.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bubblegeneration.com/2007/07/problem-with-hyperlocal-redux.cfm">Umair Haque explains why local is so hard</a>:</p>
<p><blockquote>"Why doesn't Craigslist choose small towns. Because there isn't enough liquidity in the market. Let me put that another way, <b>buy generic viagra</b>. In cities, <b>viagra chilena</b>, there are enough buyers and sellers to make markets work - whether of used stuff, new stuff, events, etc, etc.</p>
<p>In smaller towns, <b>Pfizer viagra</b>, there just isn't enough supply or demand."</blockquote></p>
<p>If they commit to building essentially micro media brands based exclusively on location I suspect Outside.in will run itself into the ground spending money to establish critical mass in every neighborhood around the world.</p>
<p>Now that they have a nice micro media approach that seems to work they may need to start thinking about macro media.  In order to reach the deep dark corners of the physical grid, they should connect people in larger contexts, too.  <b>Buy generic viagra</b>, Here's an example of what I mean...</p>
<p>I'm remodeling the Potrero Hill shack we call a house right now.  It's all I talk about outside of work, actually, <b>best price viagra</b>.  And I need to understand things like how to design a kitchen, ways to work through building permits, and who can supply materials and services locally for this job.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.condenet.com/images_covers/cover_archdigest_190.jpg" align="right" vspace="10" hspace="10"/>There must be kitchen design experts around the world I can learn from.  Equally, I'm sure there is a guy around the corner from me who can give me some tips on local services, <b>buy generic viagra</b>.  Will Architectural Digest or Home & Garden connect me to these different people.  No.  <b>Viagra overnight no prescription</b>, Will The San Francisco Chronicle connect us.  No.  <b>Buy generic viagra</b>, Craigslist won't even connect us, because that site is so much about the transaction.</p>
<p>I need help both from people who can connect on my interest vector in addition to the more local geographic vector.  Without fluid connections on both vectors, I'm no better off than I was with my handy RSS reader and my favorite search engine.</p>
<p>Looking at how they've decided to structure their data, it seems Outside.in could pull this off and connect my global affinities with my local activities pretty easily.</p>
<p>This post is way too long already (sorry), <b>order viagra online makeup</b>, but it's worth pointing out some of the other interesting things they're doing if you care to read on.</p>
<p>Outside.in is also building automatic semantic links with the contributors' own blogs, <b>buy generic viagra</b>.  By including my zip code in a blog post, Outside.in automatically drinks up that post and adds it into the pool.  They even re-tag my post with the correct geodata and offer GeoRSS feeds back out to the world.</p>
<p><a href="http://outside.in/add_link/add_content.php">Here are the instructions</a>:</p>
<p><blockquote>"Any piece of content that is tagged with a zip code will be assigned to the corresponding area within outside.in's system. You can include the zip code as either a tag or a category, <b>Tiendade viagra</b>, depending on your blogging platform."</blockquote></p>
<p>I love this.  <b>Buy generic viagra</b>, 30Boxes does something similar where I can tell it to collect my Upcoming data, and it automatically imports events as I tag them in Upcoming.</p>
<p>They are also recognizing local contributors and shining light on them with prominant links.  I can see who the key bloggers are in my area and perhaps even get a sense of which ones matter, not just who posts the most.  I'm guessing they will apply the "people who like this contributor also like this contributor" type of logic to personalize the experience for visitors at some point.</p>
<p>Now what gets me really excited is to think about the ad model that could happen in this environment of machine-driven semantic relationships.</p>
<p>If they can identify relevant blog posts from local contributors, then I'm sure they could identify local coupons from good sources of coupon feeds, <b>buy generic viagra</b>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.acehardware.com/mystore/storeLocator.jsp?&lat=37.387&lon=-122.016"><img src="http://www.acehardware.com/graphics/store_location/bACE-00000_venh.jpg" border="0" align="right" vspace="10" hspace="10"/></a>Let's say I'm the national Ace Hardware marketing guy, and I publish a feed of coupons, <b>free trial for viagra ireland</b>.  I might be able to empower all <a href="http://www.acehardware.com/mystore/storeLocator.jsp?&lat=37.387&lon=-122.016">my local Ace franchises and affiliates</a> to publish their own coupons for their own areas and get highly relevant distribution on Outside.in.  Or I could also run a national coupon feed with zip code tags cooked into each item.</p>
<p>To Umair's point, that kind of marketing will only pay off in major metros where the markets are stronger.  <b>Buy generic viagra</b>, To help address the inventory problem, Outside.in could then offer to sell ad inventory on their contributors' web sites.  As an Outside.in contributor, I would happily run <a href="http://www.centerhardware.com/">Center Hardware</a> coupons, <b>Fest viagra</b>, my local Ace affiliate, on my blog posts that talk about my remodelling project if someone gave them to me in some automated way.</p>
<p>If they do something like this then they will be able to serve both the major metros and the smaller hot spots that you can never predict will grow.  Plus, the incentives for the individuals in the smaller communities start feeding the wider ecosystem that lives on the Outside.in platform.</p>
<p>Outside.in would be pushing leverage out to the edge both in terms of participation as they already do and in terms of revenue generation, a fantastic combination of forces that few media companies have figured out, yet, <b>Rabatt kaufen viagra</b>.</p>
<p>I realize there are lots of 'what ifs' in this assessment.  The company has a lot of work to do before they breakthrough, and none of it is easy.  The good news for them is that they have something pretty solid that works today despite a crowded market.</p>
<p>Regardless, knowing Fred Wilson, Esther Dyson, John Seely Brown and Steven Berlin Johnson are behind it, among others, no doubt they are going to be one to watch.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Time business columnist Justin Fox questioned the success of the new media methods in a recent post "<a href=http://time-blog.com/curious_capitalist/2007/04/the_reign_of_the_enthusiasts_1.html>The reign of the enthusiasts</a> <b>Buy viagra online</b>, ".</p>
<p>He suggests the algorithms that proudly surface the deep dark corners of the Internet are actually just self-referential popularity contests.  When searching for his name Justin found that the articles he's written that are likely most influential in the real world fail to rank higher than the articles he's written which attracted the most link love from media-obsessed blogger types, <b>Viagra without prescription norway</b>, like myself.</p>
<p><blockquote>"There are web2topians out there--Battelle and my friend Matt McAlister immediately spring to mind--who are convinced that the Googles (and Diggs and del.icio.uses and Amazons and Last.fms) of the future will do a vastly better job of steering people to what they want, such a good job that most of the gatekeepers of the current media universe will prove wholly extraneous."</blockquote></p>
<p>This isn't the first time someone has accused me of being a Web 2.0 blogger.  Coincidentally, <b>free viagra without prescription</b>, the same day Justin posted this, I was mocked by a local construction worker waiting for the bus with his buddies as I passed on my way to the office.  He shouted to nobody in particular,</p>
<p><blockquote>"Man, you know what I hate, <b>buy viagra online</b>.  <b>Pfizer free trial offers for viagra</b>, Dotcommers."  He watched me walk by stonefaced and waited for a response.  The guys standing around him turned to look.  Unsure still, he blurted out, <b>viagra og rødvin</b>, "Architects, too.  <b>Viagra no presciptioncountrys</b>, Hate all of them."  He got the laugh he was looking for.</blockquote></p>
<p>Jeez, am I that boring.  <b>Buy viagra online</b>, Or that obvious and annoying.  (Please don't say anything.  I think I know the answer.)</p>
<p>Anyhow, <b>viagra cartoons</b>, Justin's question is top-of-mind for a lot of people in the media business.  Where I disagree with him and the wisdom of the media industry crowd is on the notion of "gatekeepers" or rather the need for them at all.  <b>Viagra price in pakistan</b>, Perhaps the most important part of being successful in media is distribution, and the reason we're asking what the role of the gatekeeper is today is because the Internet has disintermediated the media distribution models that helped them become gatekeepers in the first place.</p>
<p>Online search changed the way people access relevant information, and those who once thought of themselves as gatekeepers suddenly found themselves at the mercy of the link police, the new gatekeepers, the search engines, <b>buy viagra online</b>.</p>
<p>Yet, Justin's explanation of the weakness of Google's algorithm is exactly what I think many people who get mocked for their trendy glasses, <b>viagra for sale In Oslo</b>, old man sport coats, carefully orchestrated facial hair events, <b>Viagra in burma</b>, designer shoes and man purses (I don't have a man purse) all see improving with the introduction of explicit and implicit human data into the media distribution model.  The act of hyperlinking to a web page is not a strong enough currency to hold together a market of information as big as the Internet has become in recent years.  It's a false economy.</p>
<p>But the link currency opened the door to the idea of using behavior to help people find things, <b>where to get viagra without prescription</b>.  <b>Buy viagra online</b>, I love Last.fm not just for the music it recommends to me but because it proves this to be true.  The Internet is made of people, people with a wide range of knowledge, <b>Viagra danmark</b>, tastes, and interests.</p>
<p>Now, there will always be a role for experts, <b>free femaile viagra</b>, and there are many cases where being an expert is not just subjective.  Experts are hugely influential on the Internet as they are in other media.  <b>Where can i get viagra for sale in phila</b>, But I don't see that a gatekeeper is an expert by definition.</p>
<p>There will also always be a role for enablers, <b>buy viagra online</b>.  Good enablers are often community builders who understand the rhythms of human psychology and emotion.  Henry Luce was such a man, and I think he might have been a very successful web2topian today, <b>brand viagra for sale</b>.</p>
<p>If those who call themselves "gatekeepers" want to share their expertise in valuable ways, then they will need to understand how the role of human data helps with distribution of that expertise.  <b>Cheap generic viagra from canada</b>, If those who aim to be enablers of communities want to be relevant, they will find ways to do that in many of the social technologies that have proven successful in this new world.</p>
<p>Similarly, if the people Justin affectionately refers to as web2topians appear smug, glib or arrogant when talking about media, then they are only doing themselves and everyone in the business a disservice.  Gatekeepers know better than anyone that expertise does not by definition make you important.  That's a lesson the Internet generation will learn the hard way when someday they become irrelevant, too, I'm sure.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> I have to echo <a href=http://avc.blogs.com/a_vc/2006/12/the_evil_genius.html>Fred Wilson's view</a> <b>Viagra prescription</b>, that Valleywag has suddenly become a must-read for me.  Despite the incessant Yahoo.  <b>Om viagra online</b>, bashing recently, Nick Denton has finally created an insightful Silicon Valley gossip rag that's worth the time put into it.  Fred states, <b>viagra athens ga</b>,</p>
<p><blockquote>"Under the old regime, <b>Benefits and side effects of viagra</b>, I never read Valleywag. Now I read it every day. Sure its still snarky, <b>viagra prescription</b>. Sure its still evil, <b>how to buy viagra in the bay area</b>. But its relevant.  <b>Brand viagra cheap</b>, Nick is reporting on real stuff, with classic Gawker attitude."</blockquote></p>
<p><a href=href=http://www.valleywag.com/tech/truth-in-statistics/glamcoms-highprice-visitors-221938.php><img src=http://www.valleywag.com/assets/resources/seth%20goldestein.jpg align=right border=0 hspace=5 vspace=5/></a>For example, he covered <a href=http://www.valleywag.com/tech/truth-in-statistics/glamcoms-highprice-visitors-221938.php>today's Glam.com hype</a> by exposing the story behind the high traffic numbers, <b>viagra online</b>.  First, <b>How to afford viagra or alternatives</b>, he colors the piece with the appropriate human elements that make the story tangible and interesting:</p>
<p><blockquote>"Samir Arora looks so beatifically happy in that photo, and it's no wonder why: Glam Media, the fashion site headed by the smiling web guru has just raised an astonishing amount of money, <b>understand viagra</b>, $18m...7m [women] visit each month, <b>Viagra online prescription canada</b>, an achievement of which Glam is so proud that it places the claim in the logo.  <b>Viagra prescription</b>, Unfortunately, as claims go, it's a stretch, and here's why:"</blockquote></p>
<p>Then he goes on to explain how a network of smaller blogs make up the total traffic and that Glam is not as big as you might think.</p>
<p>Denton's next post is a reaction to <a href=http://www.valleywag.com/tech/root-markets/the-impenetrable-jargon-of-seth-goldstein-221947.php>Seth Goldstein's incomprehensible Root Markets business</a>.  It's short, <b>india generic viagra</b>, menacing and basically spot on.  <b>Want to buy viagra</b>, <blockquote>"I never understood Seth Goldstein's most recent company, Root Markets...Root's website, a blank page with a mysterious log-in box, <b>does levi take viagra</b>, doesn't help.  <b>Canadian pharmacy viagra</b>, And nor does the advertising guru's personal website, which leads off with the following gobbledygook headline: API: In the middle of the middle, about Poverty & Wealth in the Gesture Economy."</blockquote></p>
<p>This kind of journalism, <b>viagra on sale in china</b>, though not for everybody, <b>Get viagra same day in london</b>, clearly, and no doubt difficult to get right, is exactly the kind of commentary that creates a center of gravity in a market.  He's creating cocktail party quotable stuff here for the whole industry and maybe even influencing the way people think about what's going on in the Internet business, <b>viagra prescription</b>.</p>
<p>He publishes stories very quickly, often first.  Every post is always about people.  He may get frivolous, but his viewpoint is always colored by experience in the market rather than some removed personal opinion.  His opinion is a filter on the story, not the story itself.</p>
<p>This is exactly how John Battelle initially conceived the editorial voice of The Industry Standard in the early phases of defining the business.  He wanted to create Silicon Valley's <i>Variety</i>.  I'd say Nick is well on his way to making that vision happen here.</p>
<p>And as Fred pointed out, the numbers prove that it's working whether you like what he has to say or not:<br /><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <a href="http://journalism.nyu.edu/pubzone/weblogs/pressthink/2006/07/14/free_fbs.html">Jay Rosen's recent attack</a> <b>παραγγείλετε online viagra</b>, on Fortune columnist Justin Fox reminded me that changing old media's role in this new world is not going to happen by telling them that they stink.  <b>Get viagra for free</b>, <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" border="0" align="right"><br />

Photo: carradine65</a></td><br />
</tr><br />
</table><br />
He accused Justin of failing to say anything meaningful in the 'private vs public ownership of media' debate.  Underneath it all, <b>experiencias con el viagra</b>, <b>Where to buy viagra online</b>, however, was the more acidic accusation that Justin doesn't get the Internet:<br />
<div style="margin-left: 40px">"There’s an upside, <b>canadian viagra scam</b>, <b>Viagra secret order</b>, there’s a downside to local ownership. Reasons to be hopeful, <b>jessica alba viagra</b>, <b>Viagra san diego</b>, reasons to be wary. Where did you get the idea that your peers don’t know this, <b>alternative viagra female viagra</b>. (After all, it’s common sense.) I’ll tell you where, Free Pass: you made it up so that your column would be easier to write, <b>παραγγείλετε online viagra</b>.  <b>Billige viagra apotek</b>, But the day when you could get by with that standard is over. Gone, <b>viagra online without prescription india</b>.  <b>Buy viagra overnight</b>, The bar has been raised on opinion journalism. The Web did it, <b>cheap ass viagra without prescription</b>, <b>Reasons for needing viagra</b>, especially the magic of linking and the powers of Google.  Where have you been?"</div><br />
<a href="http://www.byjustinfox.com/2006/08/when_journalism.html">Justin then responded in depth</a> <b>παραγγείλετε online viagra</b>, to Jay, defending the accusations point by point on his new blog:<br />
<div style="margin-left: 40px">"I can't ignore [Jay's post], partly because I'm an oversensitive weenie (always have been), partly because past experience tells me Rosen's blog posts are often worth paying attention to, and partly because buried in his tirade was at least one entirely irrefutable criticism."</div><br />
I'm as guilty as the next new media nerd of pressing old media to change their ways based on my own small view of the present and future challenges.  I'm equal parts idealist and pragmatist, <b>where to buy viagra</b>, <b>Can i use viagra for whole life</b>, almost always the former when blogging.</p>
<p>But I also know that there are many editors and executives alike who wish very much to apply the mental shift they may have adopted perhaps years ago and turn it into practical change without losing their jobs in the process.  We need those people employed and making change happen in their organizations in order to accomplish the new media goals, no matter how slowly.</p>
<p>As Justin points out, even Time Warner has adopted a multi-threaded approach to journalism where columnists are required to post weekly online in addition to their print columns which require significantly more dedication.  If that's not enough, Justin has recently begun blogging on topic and wrote a book on one of his beats to boot, <b>παραγγείλετε online viagra</b>.</p>
<p>Time Warner may not be collaborating with customers as much as it needs to, but clearly that door is opening some.  And that's a good thing.</p>
<p>Jay is not wrong to press old media to change more dramatically and to do it faster.  It's not just the methods that need to change.  The way that they think about the world around them and the value of their perspective both need to accomodate a new and different way of communicating.</p>
<p>In this case, it's a matter of picking which battles to fight.  Attacking those who are influencing positive change at the companies you wish to influence is probably going to turn off those who may be listening to you.</p>
<p>Don't invite other kids to play in the sand box and then throw sand at them, Jay.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> It's hard to resist adding my $0.02 in a debate about blogging like the one Nick Carr started this week with his post on <a href="http://www.roughtype.com/archives/2006/08/the_great_unrea.php">The Great Unread</a> <b>Cheap viagra</b>, , the story of the royal hierarchy in the blogosphere:<br />
<blockquote>"As the blogophere has become more rigidly hierarchical, not by design but as a natural consequence of hyperlinking patterns, filtering algorithms, aggregation engines, and subscription and syndication technologies, not to mention human nature, it has turned into a grand system of patronage operated - with the best of intentions, mind you - by a tiny, self-perpetuating elite."</blockquote><br />
It's definitely worth a read if you blog.  If you don't, <b>viagra bloomington In</b>, <b>Cheapest viagra prices</b>, it's more echo chamber music, as is this post, <b>viagra overnight delivery</b>.  <b>Can i make my own viagra</b>, I suspect that the idea of the blogosphere and the blog elite is a temporary one.  The blogger hierarchy does not make the substance of a post any more or less valuable, <b>viagra with no prescription legality</b>.  <b>Chad ocho cinco viagra</b>, Ultimately, that value is completely up to me, <b>sample viagra</b>, <b>Free sample viagra</b>, not some shallow power structure.</p>
<p>I'm hoping that instead of reinforcing global hiearchical power structures that things like recommendation engines, personalization services, syndication and filtering algorithms will weed out the crap and bubble up what matters to me, empowering me to own my media experience, <b>cheap viagra</b>.</p>
<p>Popular blogs, <b>buying viagra canada</b>, <b>Free trial pack of viagra</b>, podcasts and videos will become just a sidebar to my daily intake when their relevance to my world is only tangential.</p>
<p>I respect what Jay Rosen says (and Nick, <b>viagra for sale cheap</b>, <b>Brand viagra</b>, for that matter), but his posts are too long for me, <b>viagra brand</b>.  <b>Is viagra sold in stores</b>, I need the blogs I read regularly to filter out which of Jay's posts are worth spending the time to read.  I'm impressed not just by the quality of the posts Jeff Jarvis generates but also the volume, <b>cheap generic viagra online</b>.  <b>Cheap viagra</b>, Again, I need an interestingness filter on Jeff's posts to surface the ones that matter to me.</p>
<p>Yet all of Jay's and Jeff's influence on my thinking about journalism and media has no bearing whatsoever on the music I listen to, the basketball teams I follow or the technologies I find interesting.</p>
<p>What Nick rightly points out is that there will be an increasing tendency for people to publish for the sake of fame and fortune which will dilute the pool of interesting things out there.  This is <a href="http://www.mattmcalister.com/blog/2006/04/25/45/the-problem-with-being-popular/">the popularity problem</a>.</p>
<p>Perhaps I'm just optimistic.  But it seems reasonable to expect that we'll find technology answers to this issue, automatic ways to subvert wasteful power structures that may be forming in the world of personal media.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Cheapest viagra online</b>, I find it a bit presumptuous that someone would try to end a discussion on a topic in the blogosphere or, for that matter, assume that they drive a conversation in the market.</p>
<p>In an attempt to stop people blabbing endlessly about bloggerism vs journalism, <b>Free sampe viagra</b>, Steven Berlin Johnson redefined the 5 points of the debate, recapping <a href="http://journalism.nyu.edu/pubzone/weblogs/pressthink/2005/01/15/berk_pprd.html">Jay Rosen's closing arguments</a> on the topic from over a year ago.  His post was a response to Nichalos Lehmann's article <a href="http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/articles/060807fa_fact1"><em>Amateur Hour -- Journalism without journalists</em></a> in The New Yorker questioning the value of blogging:<br />
<blockquote>"Jay Rosen tried to kill off this kind of discussion a year or two ago with his smart essay, <b>discount pfizer viagra</b>, <a href="http://journalism.nyu.edu/pubzone/weblogs/pressthink/2005/01/15/berk_pprd.html">Bloggers Versus Journalists Is Over</a>, <b>Buy viagra</b>, but obviously it didn't stick. So let me propose a slightly more blunt approach."</blockquote><br />
Similarly, it seems odd to me that <a href="http://gladwell.typepad.com/gladwellcom/2006/07/the_derivative_.html">Malcolm Gladwell has decided that blog commentary is merely derivitive of mainstream media conversation</a>:<br />
<blockquote>"Any form that consists, <b>cheap viagra from canada</b>, chiefly, <b>Michigan MI Mich.</b>, of commentary and criticism is derivative. We need derivative media sources to help us make sense of what we learn from primary sources.</p>
<p>...although it maybe possible for some bloggers to think of their thoughts as rising, fully formed, from the blogosphere, it just ain’t so, <b>cheapest viagra online</b>. Even people who do not think of themselves as being influenced by the agenda of traditional media actually are: they are simply influenced by someone who is influenced by someone who is influenced by old media."</blockquote><br />
He makes this statement in response to Chris Anderson of Long Tail fame (and Conde Nast's Wired magazine), <b>viagra site in online</b>.  <a href="http://www.thelongtail.com/the_long_tail/2006/07/on_media_elitis.html">Chris used a comment Malcolm made to reinforce the point that mainstream media is not as powerful as it thinks it is</a>:<br />
<blockquote>"What we do has great value, <b>What is a good company to order viagra from without a prescription?</b>, but we no longer have a monopoly on leading the public conversation (not that we ever did, of course, but it was easier to delude ourselves before), <b>viagra on line</b>. The blogosphere doesn't need us to give them something to talk about.  <b>Reliable soft viagra</b>, When we do what we do well and add new ideas, information and analysis, blogs can be our best friend, <b>viagra in gulf</b>, amplifying our reach many-fold.  <b>Cheapest viagra online</b>, But when we don't, the former audience is very happy to talk amongst itself."</blockquote><br />
There's a bit of chicken and egg here, as I'm not sure it's clear whose work is derivitive of whose.  <b>Viagra 4 sale in goa</b>, A good reporter is a story teller of other people's experiences.  Nothing in the Wall Street Journal happens because the Wall Street Journal said it did.  A good media company like the Wall Street Journal is able to catalyze important events and thinking happening in interesting places into meaningful and valuable chunks with a consistent lens, <b>malta viagra</b>, and there's no doubt the Wall Street Journal influences what people think about.  <b>Ejemplos de viagra</b>, But that role in not exclusive, even when their coverage of a topic is considered the best in its class or costs a ton of money or takes a lot of research to get right.</p>
<p>The conversations the Wall Street Journal covers are reflections of conversations that in many cases started years prior, and it's not until the topic reaches some kind of tipping point does the Wall Street Journal then translate it for their lens of the world, <b>cheapest viagra online</b>.</p>
<p>I would never deny being influenced by mainstream media, <b>what is the difference between viagra and viagra professional</b>.  But that's more a result of the fact that I have shared experiences with people than because the influence is meaningful or relevant.  <b>Viagra sign up</b>, In fact, it becomes less and less relevant the more my media experience diversifies.</p>
<p>I agree with Steven that this particular topic lacks the juice it used to have.  Jay Rosen has done a brilliant job of turning the discourse into a cohesive string that matters and feels complete from my personal perspective and obviously for Steven's.</p>
<p>But closure for us may also mean it's time for some fresh perspective to alter the dialog or extend it in sensible ways for other people yet untouched by it or confirm the premise of the argument with more useful research.</p>
<p>The effects of disintermediating media are still unfolding, and I'm betting that leaders at most big media companies will get more clarity on how to deal with that problem from each other and the individuals they know at competing companies or even their neighbors than they will from reading about it in their own publications.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Online viagra</b>, Several authors have proven that blogs are a great complement to writing and then selling a book.  They are also excellent companions to operating and marketing a business.  <b>Buy viagra in macau</b>, <a href="http://www.penagainblog.com/"><img vspace="5" hspace="5" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.penagain.com/images/hand_homepage.jpg" /></a>Colin Roche, entrepreneur and inventor of the <a href="http://www.penagain.com/">PenAgain</a>, began publishing a <a href="http://www.penagainblog.com">blog </a>this week in response to some big buzz generated by <a href="http://www.startupjournal.com/columnists/enterprise/20060531-bounds.html">an article in the Wall Street Journal</a> last week, <b>viagra farmacia a buon mercato</b>.  The piece was about how the Wal-Mart distribution system works for product developers from a small businessman's perspective.  <b>De que color y forma es el viagra</b>, The small businessman in this case was Colin with his PenAgain.</p>
<p>The PenAgain story is great, <b>online viagra</b>.  A guy has an idea for a radical new pen...while in detention in high school.  He prototypes it in his garage, <b>india cosmos viagra</b>.  He gets investment to produce it several years later.  <b>Viagra gel</b>, Then he hits the streets and sells and sells and sells.  <b>Online viagra</b>, Right now is the point in the story just before he hits it big...or does he.<br />
<blockquote>"During the trial, PenAgain will get space in the special  displays, <b>viagra free trial sample</b>, known as "end caps, <b>Pfizer viagra for sale</b>, " at the edge of aisles, in the thick of consumer  traffic. The prime positioning will give the product a fighting chance: After 30  days, <b>can you legally buy viagra online</b>, the stores need to sell close to 85% of the 48, <b>Buy viagra online in california</b>, 000 pens Wal-Mart ordered  if the product is to be considered for wider distribution throughout the chain."</blockquote><br />
Part of Colin's strategy so far has been about paying close attention to what people think of his product.  He is constantly watching people use his pen and listening to their advice.  And I've seen what happens firsthand, <b>canadian generic viagra</b>.  There is no shortage of advice for a guy that is trying to launch a product that people can hold in their hands and buy on a supermarket shelf, <b>online viagra</b>.  Everyone has an opinion for Colin.  <b>Indian viagra</b>, So, it makes sense that he step into the blog world and open up that dialog to a much wider pool of opinions.  I'm hopeful he'll entertain us and inform us about the entrepreneur's journey, <b>home made viagra</b>.</p>
<p>For example, <b>Real viagra online</b>, he needs to give us performance reports and share the tactics that work and the ones that don't work.  <b>Online viagra</b>, He should give us insight into what his day is like and what the market is doing.  People will want to know how many pens and how many distributors he has to work with so that other entrepreneurs can compare notes.  They'll want to know price pressure, <b>pharmacie van der viagra</b>, competive details and lessons in distribution.  <b>Seattle viagra</b>, Most importantly, for blogging to have an impact, he needs to consider the people who share their thoughts with him in the blogosphere as trusted advisors.</p>
<p>John Battelle mastered the art of integrating a blog into the author's writing process.  He posted thoughts daily and watched people react, <b>online viagra</b>.  He let them inform him and correct him.  He then incorporated those discoveries into the story that became his book.  And when his book finally shipped he had an instant base of buyers and marketers.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, John hasn't adopted the same approach for his new business.  Perhaps Colin can show us how it's done for a startup.</p>
<p><em>Disclosure: I'm a friend and advisor to these guys.</em>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Order viagra bars</b>, Somebody recently referred to MySpace as "Outlook for teenagers".  Wow, <b>Bradford viagra</b>, what an interesting way to visualize the paradigm shift.</p>
<p>I had trouble grasping why it was that kids were referring to their MySpace experience using phrases that imply addiction, but this expression broke down that mental block for me, <b>hjerne viagra</b>.  We can all relate to moments when you're pounding the "Check Mail" button in your email app.  <b>Buy viagra into canada</b>, Of course, you can't reduce MySpace to such a simple generalization without missing some other key trends that serve it well.</p>
<p>There's something fascinating about watching people react to what you post online, <b>order viagra bars</b>.  I do the same thing after I post something in my blog that I hope people read, <b>free viagra</b>.  I start checking technorati and watching my referrer logs more closely.  <b>American made viagra</b>, People who add Wikipedia entries closely monitor the evolution of those pages as others contribute to it.  People who post questions on Answers keep checking their question to see who has responded.  <b>Order viagra bars</b>, I would bet that people are often more interested in who responds than what the reponse is.</p>
<p>Feedback is validation, <b>cheapest viagra tablets</b>, and there's no age group that cares more about validation than teenagers.  <b>Viagra in pakistan</b>, It can be a paralyzing experience for the less confident, but the Internet creates a nice layer of distance and control that provides a more comfortable home and even a canvas for anyone who can express himself or herself.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.netimperative.com/2006/04/28/goodbye/view">Mike Butcher</a> drew an interesting picture of the portal landscape in his Netimperitive column, <b>como aser mi propio viagra</b>, "Goodbye and good luck".  <b>Where 2 get viagra</b>, He asked how Google, Yahoo. and Microsoft were going to address the need for people to control their online identities:<br />
<blockquote>"In this new world where there is no true 'one-stop-shop' for everything; where people subscribe to feeds from a myriad of places; where sites themselves are turning into mashups of other sites and none of us goes to one place any more (OK, so we never did, but this is now a fundamental and unbreakable trend); what do portals DO?.., <b>order viagra bars</b>.</p>
<p>The fight will now become one of identity as portals which used to control your ID because you were literally 'walled in' now try to win you over with identity tools locked into their ecosystem."</blockquote><br />
MySpace caught the big guys asleep at the wheel, <b>viagra for sale from thailand</b>, though they run the same risk of controlling identity against people's wills.  <b>Viagra without prescription uganda</b>, Another reason MySpace works is because no other service before it was enabling teenagers to build a fully customizable identity and to use that identity to interact with other teenagers.  There are lots of platforms for socializing online, but none prior to MySpace gave kids the ability to build an evolving reflection of themselves, <b>free trial of viagra</b>.  Avatars are neat, <b>Osta alennus viagra</b>, but there's so much more to expressing teenage drama than altering your shirt.</p>
<p>As <a href="http://jeremy.zawodny.com/blog/archives/006705.html">Jeremy Zawodny</a> <b>Order viagra bars</b>, noted, the theoretical WebOS concept already exists.  It's on MySpace where you can install apps from other online services in the form of badges, buttons and visual doodads that spice up your site:<br />
<blockquote>I recently came across something that completely changed the way I think about the idea of a Web OS, <b>cheap viagra no prescription west coast</b>. Over on the Flickr Ideas forum, <b>Viagra doesn't work for me when tired</b>, I came across a posting titled <a href="http://www.flickr.com/forums/ideas/20673/">Flickr is NOT MySpace compatible... please make a javascript free "Badge"</a>.</p>
<p>Take a minute and think about the language that Daniel used there.  It the exact same sort of complaint you might have heard 5 or 10 years ago about a desktop application, <b>order viagra bars</b>. 'Is CoolNewGame compatible with my Mac?'"</blockquote><br />
I thought the blogging craze would have enabled this world for teenagers, and from what I know about LiveJournal, this is exactly what was happening.  But a handful of common user interface elements and an email platform pulled all the right pieces together to create the MySpace explosion in a way that blogging just wasn't serving.</p>
<p>The opportunity to disintermediate MySpace certainly exists if someone can figure out how to couple the independence of a domain owned and controlled by a user along with the communication platform that unifies the way people can give feedback and validation to eachother that's integrated into the experience.</p>
<p>Comments and trackbacks aren't enough, obviously.  And too much control will confuse the masses.</p>
<p>It's a fine balance that MySpace nailed, but it's also a precarious position.  I imagine we'll see MySpace cementing their market share by locking down their brand value before competitors figure out how to lure away their users with better offerings.  They obviously need to initiate that effort with some better PR.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Koop korting viagra</b>, The San Francisco Chronicle has been doing some really innovative things recently.  <b>Viagra discount card</b>, They've begun printing <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfgate/indexn?blogid=19">blog entries from their web site</a> in the daily print edition.
