I think Scoble has gotten to a place where he doesn't get the real world anymore.
|
|
Darn right James.
|
|
Large is definately not best
|
|
Many PR outfits do little more than just pass on the Press Release - the better outfits add comment (spin?) to the releases to ensure that they achieve best coverage
|
|
indeed
|
|
techies pay little attention to eye candy
|
|
That's fabulous James! Congrats!!!
|
|
Not quite a headline - but still on the Front Cover....
|
|
influencers and conversationalists -- I like the distinction!
|
|
and only people LIKE Robert have that reach
|
|
most people won't get that notoriety
|
|
But he is alone in that
|
|
Both Ken and I get unusual requests and we both pay no attention at all. It's daunting without filters.
|
|
his point about developers pitching developers was pretty narrowly focused
|
|
yes
|
|
scoble is.
|
|
he's narrowly focused
|
|
Lots of tech "products" are tied into some platform. Maybe PR is not very valuable in such situations because there is a built in connection.... a context in which the product can be understood and discovered. Otherwise, I don't think PR can be avoided.
|
|
great so get it out there but the problem is how far reaching do you want to be? And without people like Andy there are limitations
|
|
why don't those of you who use them tell us YOUR opinion
|
|
Yes!
|
|
I would say....
|
|
Do we need Andy?
|
|
We were just having this conversation about how important it is to have the ability to speak truthfully and whether if you only give good press how valuable are you?
|
|
I used Joiku Spot and it worked GREAT
|
|
i tethered my iphone via WiFi to my E71 and Made a Truphone call
|
|
you better tell HIM then LMAO!
|
|
AT&T prohibits it for iPhone, Sheryl
|
|
Sorry to go off topic
|
|
I just asked Ken and he said he thinks the US carriers support tethering and don't seem to have any issue with it and in fact they offeer instructions for how to on their sites
|
|
Brilliant if doing a trade show - an not wanting to pay the HUGE internet rental that shows charge
|
|
I think that the 10 bucks a day deal from Avis is a great way of getting a trial run
|
|
Within a short time, all the passengers in the typical car are going to have broadband cellphones. What's the point of having another device in the car itself?
|
|
why can't they just add it to the features...hide the cost in the price?
|
|
yeah James
|
|
Main application is traffic control
|
|
I can't tell you the number of times in Canada my neighbors got speeding tickets
|
|
Why would someone have this car EVDO device if they already have a 3g or 4G cellphone?
|
|
In UK we have cameras on all main routes that scan vehicle number plates
|
|
Now... that's why I need it! I drive too fast...
|
|

it seems to me it should almost be a no brainer and all should do that
|
|
Who is going to supply chrysler with the signal? Sprint? Verizon?
|
|
many times I want to use an n800 for something but can't pair it with my BB soooo a mobile hotspot seems cool
|
|
