In this episode, John Federico (twitter: @gadgetboy), Craig Calder (twitter: @ccalder), Chia-Lin Simmons (twitter: @zeropts), Steve Hatch (twitter:@shatch) and our guest, Rob Goldman, (twitter: @robjective) CEO of threadsy discuss:
• Rob will be attending the CrunchUp event next week in the valley
• Craig will attend the Glasshouse event in NYC on Monday, 11/16
• John and Craig will attend Web 2.0 Expo NY
• Google Wave vs. Threadsy
• Mozilla releases plans, screenshots for its Raindrop universal inbox. Chia-Lin thinks it may have the potential of being vaporware.
• We’re waiting for mobile clients (especially on the iPhone) to support Twitter Lists. Threadsy is working on Twitter Lists support.
• Parse.ly is in private beta. Read Write Web calls it “The Pro Bloggers Feed Reader.” Lazyweb is a similar client. It’s going to be a tough job for some of these services to get people to switch from Google Reader.
• Chia-Lin is holding back on her Droid purchase. It’s only a CMDA phone that she can’t use internationally plus, she thinks that Verizon may get the iPhone. Will Verizon get the iPhone any time soon? We hash it out.
• John has started reading Kindle books on his iPhone…even after questioning why anyone would do that. Doh!
• The ODM crew wants to know if John has purchased any more Vooks. Yes, he decided to give Vooks another chance and bought Gary Vaynerchuk’s “Crush It” in Vook format.
• Amazon has just released Kindle software for Windows that’s decidedly for the netbook crowd.
• The class action lawsuits against the social gaming companies have arrived. Are Facebook and Myspace liable for the actions of these networks? We doubt it.
• A boxee box is coming! We want.
• Rob built his own MythTV box!
• Netflix may support the MPAA 30-day window on new releases! We’re not happy.
• Why not release James Cameron’s upcoming film “Avatar” across all platforms at once, just to see how the revenue streams unfold?
• Rupert Murdoch said that he’s going to block Google and remove all content from his properties from the search engine. Hah!
• “This is the media mogul equivalent of Jumping the Shark.”
• An interesting coup for Microsoft should Murdoch cut a deal with Bing to allow them to index his content. Hmmmm…

• Netflix will offer a streaming-only service, but not in the US. WTF!? It probably has something to do with rights.

• Craig will attend the PhocusWright Conference
• Craig will be featured in an article on DMNews
• TravelZoo/Fly.com is hiring!
• Amazon/Audible is hiring!
• Conan O’Brien and Newark Mayor Cory Booker are having a fun little sparring match. Conan is using the airwaves while Cory is using YouTube.
• Comcast is in talks to by NBC Universal in whole or in part. Thank goodness for CMRR (Committed Monthly Recurring Revenue)!
• Harper Collins is holding back the digital release of the upcoming book by Sarah Palin in order to drive hardcover sales. The ebook won’t be released until after Christmas.
• Do people buy Kindle devices because the books are less expensive, knowing that they’ll earn their investment back over time? We’d like some data on that…
• John bought his first Vook today.
• Apple has approached magazine publishers about creating “iTunes for Print” with the magazines to be read on the company’s upcoming tablet. The magazine industry thinks it can do it themselves.
• Senator Benjamin Cardin has proposed a bailout for the newspaper industry. We cringe. Let them become extinct - just as long as journalism doesn’t die with them. We need journalism but we don’t need newspapers.
• CNN just released their iPhone app.
• Sirius XM is now adding an additional $2 fee to your monthly bill to cover the performance royalty fees paid to musicians and artists.
• Since Howard Stern’s deal with Sirius was tied to the stock price which is now at an all-time low, how will he have fared at the end of his contract?
• Howard Stern will be the greatest, most successful podcaster ever once his contract with Sirius XM is up. It would also make a great iPhone app!
• Click rates on display ads have dropped 50% to only 16% of the online audience.
• “The ad networks are ruining online publishing.” — Whiny Publishers
• CPM ads on videos are doing pretty well, according to Viddler.
• Free All Media wants to deliver ad-supported song downloads. It’s like Deja Vu all over again…
• Pandora went from near death to profitability in a year’s time. Steve actually uses his free 40 hours per month. Wow.
• Metallica will be selling live tracks on LiveMetallica.com - mp3 or FLAC.

• Craig was featured in articles on Forbes.com and AdAge.com representing TravelZoo
• Craig’s team at TravelZoo won the SAMMY Award (MediaPost’s Social Media Award) for The Top Branded Twitter Campaign beating out MadMen and M&M Mars. Congratulations to Craign and the TravelZoo team!
• Audible.com is still hiring developers. You get to work with Steve Hatch! (Trust me, that’s a good thing. – jf.)
• Breaking News! Twitter has new avatars!
• Twitter will add geo-location as a built-in feature. Don’t worry, it will be opt-in.
• John is using a combination of BrightKite, FourSquare and GoWalla for location-based status updates.
• Twitter doesn’t want to have to deal with subpeonas - after 14 days, the location metadata associated with your tweets is expunged.
• “Project Retweet” is an effort to redesign the user experience of retweets - this time, officially by twitter as opposed to the community.
• Tweetie already supports the Project Retweet API extensions
• John has decided to add video to the mix during ODM recording sessions. They’ll be posted in the show notes on occassion.
• Steve equates the retweet with FriendFeed’s and Facebook’s “Like” feature and that it will ultimately morph into the same nomenclature and user experience.
• Craig believes that retweet etiquette requires the retweeter to add value in some way to the retweet. (The value IS the retweet! It’s “retweet-worthy!”)
• Mashable asks if people are ready for the features of Project Retweet. Justine Bateman wasn’t as the change caused some confusion until she realized what was going on - and she’s Twitter-savvy. What about people who aren’t? Apparently her
• BlackBerry Twitter client (UberTwitter) already supports the Project Retweet API extensions as well.
• Justin Timberlake has signed on to appear in the movie “The Accidental Billionaire” based on the book of the same name.
• 27% of people access twitter through dedicated applications. How could a company like comScore track that? Do they track API calls? Do people in their panel note the fact that they use Twitter apps? Craig will ask and report back.
• Twitter just raised $100 million to support the build-out of all these service updates - at an approximate $1 billion valuation!
• Jason Fried’s Satirical post about the 37Signals “$100 Billion valuation” pokes fun at Twitter’s recent funding and valuation
• Where’s our Audible sponsorship, damnit?! Jonathan? Are you listening?
• Livestream launches Livepack - the world’s first solution for wireless live streaming at HD quality
• Craig rediscovers TweetDeck…and loves it. A random tweet of his was included in an IgniteNYC presentation. (With attribution, of course.)
• John wil be speaking at Web2Open at the Web 2.0 Expo New York on Social Media Hacks
• Craig shares a Social Media Hack that will make its way into my presentation!
• Send any social media hacks, tips or tricks you have to comments@odmcast.com
• Google Sidewiki was released for FireFox and IE browsers - it’s a distributed commenting/social discussion system
• Remember ThirdVoice? It was the original distributing commenting system that was launched - and died - during the dotcom boom.
• Danny Sullivan used Sidewiki in a unique way (http://bit.ly/3bbzUY), commenting on Seth Godin’s post about Squidoo’s “Brands in Place” service. Not sure why people were so ruffled by Brands in Place. In a way, it’s not much different than allowing anyone to create a space on GetSatisfaction.com.
• Google introduces Google Frame for IE Browsers, bringing the standards compliant Webkit rendering engine to Internet Explorer - and a 10x increase in speed. Surprise! Microsoft doesn’t like it. We hope it will push Microsoft to make IE much better than it is currently.
• Mike Abundo from 901am writes about The Delusions of Carol Bartz.
• Comparing Yahoo’s decline with AOL’s decline.
• Yahoo is selling off Yahoo Small Business
• AOL’s decline was hastened by the rise of broadband. Yahoo’s decline was hastened by lack of focus and competing services.
• Looking for a new gig? You can probably make a difference at Yahoo or AOL - and they’re hiring.
• iRex announced the DR800SG with global 3G downloads and partnerships with Barnes & Noble for eBooks, wireless connectivity through Verizon and retail sales through Best Buy.
• AT&T finally allows MMS on the iPhone
• Newspaper publishers divide over paid content - too bad their consumers aren’t! Only a small fraction said they would pay 2 cents per article.
• OneForty.com is an app store for Twitter. Congratulations to Laura Fitton (@pistachio)

Justin Timberlake has signed on to appear in the movie "The Accidental Billionaire" based on the book of the same name. 27% of people access twitter through dedicated applications. How could a company like comScore track that? Do they track API calls? Do people in their panel note the fact that they use Twitter apps? Craig will ask and report back. Twitter just raised $100 million to support the build-out of all these service updates - at an approximate $1 billion valuation! Jason Fried's Satirical post about the 37Signals "$100 Billion valuation" pokes fun at Twitter's recent funding and valuation Where's our Audible sponsorship, damnit?! Jonathan? Are you listening? Livestream launches Livepack - the world's first solution for wireless live streaming at HD quality Craig rediscovers TweetDeck...and loves it. A random tweet of his was included in an IgniteNYC presentation. (With attribution, of course.)

Send any social media hacks, tips or tricks you have to comments@odmcast.com Google Sidewiki was released for FireFox and IE browsers - it's a distributed commenting/social discussion system Remember ThirdVoice? It was the original distributing commenting system that was launched - and died - during the dotcom boom. Danny Sullivan used Sidewiki in a unique way (http://bit.ly/3bbzUY), commenting on Seth Godin's post about Squidoo's "Brands in Place" service. Not sure why people were so ruffled by Brands in Place. In a way, it's not much different than allowing anyone to create a space on GetSatisfaction.com. Google introduces Google Frame for IE Browsers, bringing the standards compliant Webkit rendering engine to Internet Explorer - and a 10x increase in speed. Surprise! Microsoft doesn't like it.

In this episode, John Federico (twitter: @gadgetboy), Chia-Lin Simmons (twitter: @zeropts), Ken Gellman (twitter: @kengellman) and Craig Calder (twitter:@ccalder) discuss their predictions for 2009. Topics include:
• Craig is going to the PhocusWright Conference November 17th through the 19th
• Ken is now living in the Boston area and looking for a new gig
• WSJ is going to start charging for mobile access to subscription content. There will be discounts for current subscribers.
• Do the math: based on current pricing, the WSJ iPhone app is just as valuable as the print subscription. Is this the beginning of the age of a Platform-agnostic news organization
• “The newspaper industry has been in decline for 50 years. They just didn’t know it.”
• 24% of newspapers are ignoring the digital channel for distributing content
• Business Week had 93 suitors at one point - only half are still interested in purchasing the publication.
• “The brand means nothing if the business is dying.”
• The Kindle version of Dan Brown’s new book “The Lost Symbol” is outselling the hardcover on Amazon
• “Every president in American history has been a Mason except for one: John F. Kennedy.”
• “The Book is dead. Long live the Book.”
• “The printed book is not dead. The book publishing business as we know it is dead.” (or dying)
• Google bough ReCaptcha as a tool for helping digitize books
• Google will make many of the books that it has scanned as part of its Google Books initiative via print-on-demand
• Smashing Pumpkins will be distributing their new album in its entirety for free. If you want, you can buy one of the 11 collectors editions. That works for major acts, but what about the thousands of other musicians and performers?
• Check out JamsBio.com
• “The artists took over merch, ClearChannel and others took over the venues. All that’s left are the CD’s and lawsuits.”
• ASCAP and BMI want royalties for the 30-second samples on iTunes and other downloadable musi retailers.
• The music industry wants to get paid for that extra one second beyond the 29-second fair use doctrine.
