[videoblogging] Kevin Kelly on the next 5000 days of the web

2008-08-26 Thread Rupert
As I posted the interview of Jay and Ryanne yesterday, I was thinking about how far we've come since 2004/5. And just then a friend sent me this talk by Kevin Kelly last year, saying the web is only 5000 years old, and trying to predict what might happen in the next 5000 days. He starts by

Yeah, thanks Yahoo. Glad to see you're still improving the platform. Safe to say that a mailing list platform which breaks links longer than a certain number of characters is *not* the future of the web. Here's a short version of that link: http://tinyurl.com/kevinkelly On 26-Aug-08, at 8:44

I thought it was funny - just made me laugh at the advertiser - but yeah, i'm pretty amazed at the stupidity of advertisers, still making one-size-fits-all adverts, even little 5 second pre-roll ones. simplistic ideas of brand identity etc mean they can't get their heads around supplying

I hear what you're saying, but bills have to be paid. I don't know anything about boingboing, so I can't speak for them specifically, but that's the game that's being played here. Get people to click on your video, get people to click on your ads, get revenue to pay people's salaries. There's

Oh indeed I do know that is the nature of the biz but I can't help but think, maybe an ad for not smoking or maybe a company that is doing green or social things, etc...maybe that would have been a better fit than the ad that was on there...again I know the realility but for me this was the

hmm... I had assumed that Heath was talking about overlay ads DURING the program. I don't have a problem with pre-roll and post-roll ads of whatever type. They just have to be integrated properly with the subject matter. I say if pre-roll's going to be peppy and bouncy, get it out of the way in

thinking about it, the main reason it was so obnoxious was because it came after the intro soundbite from jay and after the boingboing tv ident, so it wasn't just pre-roll, it was inserted after you've already thought the episode was beginning. it wouldn't have been *as* bad (though still

Well, like I said, I agree with you entirely. I was shocked enough just reading the twitter or link here or whatever that informed me that they had been over there AT ALL. I thought they were in the sticks somewhere making bread and not using plastic. When I read the link, I was like THEY could

I don't think they have to have different advertisers for different moods. Their advertiser just needs to provide maybe two or three different styles of their advert. And they don't even need to be that different. For instance, if the Crowdfire advert here had just been without that
