Twitter is the du jour fad of the internet as we have seen so many of them before.  Remember ICQ?  I Didn’t think so.  Twitter has done well to get a critical mass of users and made themselves relevant, but the tech is easily replicated and only worked well once they dropped the primary business model of using SMS.  Now that it’s not just a neat application mixing SMS and the web, people actually use it.  I’m sure a lot of this is attributed to convergence as well and you can bet that some marketing major is doing the research and proving seven ways from sunday how they got big.  Allow me to speed up your research.  One name: Oprah.

It is a pit of self indulgence and faux fame.  There are fad followers and there are not.  The vast majority of people on the planet are not.  I know it seems like it’s what “everyone is doing” but those numbers that people are always trying to dismiss that show people trying it then leaving, are actually very important to show that it isn’t what everyone is doing.  People DON’T like twitter outside of a small technological elite and it’s NOT useful like Google or Facebook.    Status updates on Facebook do the very same thing a “tweet” does.  Ugh, I am loathe to even use a tiny bit of jargon spawned by this trend.

Finally, there’s the issue of JARGON.  The current trend of twitter speak happening everywhere “rt @myhomie” etc is causing at least this internet user a headache.

I know who my friends are and I know if they have gained or lost weight in the last few months.

Time will tell if this is just a fad or not, I believe broadcast messaging and generating subscription to your data stream is a basic internet application, but twitter, aside from having a cute name that buffy can get into, isn’t the transformative technology people want to turn it into .  It’s an iterative tech at best.

When I was looking for a way to work with my HVX to make great time lapse footage, mostly because I had just discovered an Intervalometer was a basic feature (did you even know that?) I found that the information on how to do this was limited and scattered.  First, I found a great video tutorial then a forum post then… well you get the idea.  All in all, it took me a while to get it all togther and working, so I thought I’d share the technique on my blog at www.onetwomany.com.  Go check it out if you want to learn all about the Panasonic HVX-200’s hidden frame rates and enabling the awesome 350 degree syncro scan shutter!

>online casinothose that didn’t know it, GameSpot laid off several of their employees about a week and a half ago.  I think that they might have had their hands forced by CBS management, but I’m neither knowledgable or interested in going over the whys of the issue.  I think that at least in my case, I was given a fantastic opportunity to learn and I did.  The closing of one door always leads to the opening of others if we choose to look through the fog and find the doors.   After the holidays there will be more information coming from me, but for the most part, we are looking to our new skills and developed talents to light the way.  There’s too much talent out there in the world right now, waiting to be utilized.

We held a Wrath of the Lich King marathon last week friday and I worked on the promotional trailer for it.  Tons of fun and Steve put a fat bass reverb on my voice making it totally sweet.  I sound POWERFUL.

Our first show back from E3 and we had so much to pack in, I think we could have gone an hour and a half!

Had some ninja craziness on GameSpot’s weekly show, “On The Spot”.  Thanks to our friends at Namco/Bandai who came and presented the newest Naruto fighter!  It looks great and seems to be a fan pleaser.

Let me begin by saying that I love Facebook applications. There are a TON of uses for these little doohickeys. You can make games, informational apps, hey, you can really capitalize on that original promise of Internet marketing, do you remember it? Create a Dialog between your brand, your customers and their friends. Simply pricless.

Barriers Schmarriers

What sucks is the cost of entry to publishing. The reason you get so many cheesy, crappy apps is because everyone with a computer can make one. While that is great for democracy, it’s not great for capitalism. With a larger cost to entry, such as an API fee or a license for the private keys used on the back end of the app, we could circumvent the chumps who think that making an application just to post a company logo on a customer’s page is relevant.

What An API License Would Buy The Rest Of Us

• The cost would drive away most dabblers who only half complete their idea before beginning coding.
• Developers would have more incentive to stick to the Facebook guidelines for developers, in fear that their app, paid for or not, would be banned and they could lose their license fees.
• Any idea that does not seem likely to have a profitability path would immediately be tabled.
• If the fee were a subscription, apps that didn’t take (users thought they sucked and didn’t join them) would simply disappear.

Democracy? More like Communism, Hippie.
So, in short, today’s idea is this: Facebook should charge a nominal fee for the right to use their application API or to get the private key needed to self publish. While this might annoy some of the college kids writing apps that suck, there are a lot more apps that would come from paid developers, who know what they are doing. No offense, hyper talented students, you are 1 in 100000 at least, remember that many of the apps are developed by people whom some chimps eclipse.

Democracy is about choice and right now, no developer is forced to make a choice based on the feedback seen from their users. That makes it far closer to communism, except a communism where resources aren’t scarce and instead of scarcity we have abundance, of crap. The lowest quality crap available. If there wasn’t so much noise, which an API fee could fix, the advertisers might actually be able to take advantage of this Web 2.0 miracle.

When I was a first time voter, there was a new campaign focused on the youth voters and that spoke to me directly. I had already been enlisted in the Army, so I knew the value of my vote, but finally, I felt like I mattered. My voice was important. This is a message that doesn’t get out to the youth of America often enough.

I was asked by an acquaintance to join them to Iowa where we witnessed history being made with the success of Obama’s campaign. We created a couple videos of our adventures for the rock the caucus website. Check them out!

The Day Before the Caucus

The Morning of the Caucus

Someone up there loves me, this I know is true, because people as talented as these guys know my heart true enough to really entertain me. It doesn’t flow super fast but what it does do is really good. I want to wish a merry xmas to all who watch this video and can relate to its story.

Note: This is not my work, I wish it were!

I went out to Bondage A Go Go for the first time in almost a year. I used to love that place and now I love to drop in to see how it hasn’t changed a bit in over 10 years. Nicely done, George. Well, there wasn’t an event planned for last wednesday so they grabbed their instruments and threw down some awesome covers of classic punk songs. I don’t know the name of this one, but I’ll post it as soon as I do.
