kevinmarks: Gina Bianchini: We love OpenSocial at Ning; Amit Kapur: OpenSocial is enabling rich application development at MySpace | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Gina: data portability is something we're looking at - want to get it right. Not heard demand for it from our network users yet | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Rick Thompson: anything that makes it easier to purchase is a terriffic thing | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Amit Kapur: a payment or currency platform that works across sites could be monetizable | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Amit Kapur: we haven't yet achieved SNS interoperability yet, but once we do networks will compete on features not lockin | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Gina: Ning has zero paid acquisition. Network creators have a reason to drive people to join | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Amit kapur: MySpace doesn't pay for customer acquisition; relied on virality. Careful on how they open up channels in API | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Rick Thompson: players have given us thousands of dollars to pursue a game | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Rick Thompson: 97% of people play our games for free 3% buy virtual goods to perform to the 97% audience | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Rick Thompson (playdom): used to say "viral is everything real men don't buy installs", but now we do | RT | ||

1938media: Short Thought: Im gonna post the short shit here a bit more than twitter I think. http://bit.ly/12MoyE | 1938media |
RT | |
|
kevinmarks: Google is a signal of intent answered by a machine; Twitter is a signal of emotion answered by a person (based on @pistachio) | RT | ||
|
stevegillmor: They haven't been released. The live show is the recording session. re: http://ff.im/2Zcn3 | friendfeed |
RT | |
|
kevinmarks: Samir Arora agrees with me (and @pistachio) that twitter is sending emotional signals, not informational ones, and need a different response | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Samir Arora: you can see "the Tipping Point" mavens to connectors to mass transition in trends on twitter for each movie release | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Curt Marvis: Movies used to run in cinema then go into vault. Each new medium has changed that. Will see ones built for net. | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Curt Marvis: trust and authenticity is core to what has changed. How will they not know I'm marketing to them on twitter? | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Samir Arora: what we're seeing from tinker is that his instincts don't match it - more volatile than he thought | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Samir Arora: media want to harness the energy, but they want it curated too. We do billboards to create word of mouth. Scared of missing out | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Samir Arora: big media has thrown more money at web, blogs, social over the past 10 years than VC has, but not succeeded | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Michael Wolf: Newspapers have a false orthodoxy about protecting the free press. Now there are many viewpoints | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Jessica Vascellaro: why are companies avoiding these social things? WSJ has been looking into this for ages and not done it | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Michael Wolf: Kraft though they could create a social network around Jello. This doesn't work. | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Curt Mavis can't think of a case where movie opening was driven by social without media spend | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Michael Wolf: social networks are a way of creating demand in a way that is not contrived, not by running ads next to profiles | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Michael Wolf: pace Samir, web is creating hits too - Susan Boyle has made Britains Got Talent famous online | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Samir Arora: the internet is not a hits business. Sort top videos by number of views; top ones are small proportion | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Samir Arora: don't think we'll have subscription and circulation without a physical form. Hits business has many ways to monetize. | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Michael Wolf: Scenes on YouTube drive people to buy the original movies from Amazon or iTunes | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Michael Wolf: Monetization is contrived. Find a way to create more connectivity with audience. The Insider uses FB Connect to do this | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Curt Marvis: YouTube is a social site. It hasn't been able to monetize. How can we make money off content already produced? | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Curt Marvis: with Twitter, within 15 minutes of a movie launching, you can see people saying it suck on twitter. Thats a problem for us | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Curt Marvis: I see MySpace as a social music network | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Curt Marvis (Lionsgate): no-one has scratched the surface on monetizing social graphs; we're at the beginning of that | RT | ||

RT | |
|
stevegillmor: Google spin, Kevin re: http://ff.im/30XHz | friendfeed |
RT | |
|
kevinmarks: Samir Arora: MySpace vs Facebook is a media brand preference; using Google removes brand preferences by making search easier | RT | ||
|
stevegillmor: archives are not deprecated by realtime. Podcasting is not the only mechanism for persistence. re: http://ff.im/2Zcn3 | friendfeed |
RT | |
|
kevinmarks: Samir Arora: more people talk about American Idol on twitter that are related to each other by friends | RT | ||
|
stevegillmor: you'll have to bear with us until our plans can be fully implemented. re: http://ff.im/2Xsim | friendfeed |
RT | |
|
kevinmarks: Samir Arora (Glam): when we get involved with traditional media, we forget the medium has changed - adoption is faster | RT | ||
|

kevinmarks: says @jsmarr: recommendations tend to get polarized love/hate reviews - now we are more likely to do it fro friends | RT | ||

|
kevinmarks: Sheldon Gilbert: Facebook is a good source for wedding planning, not for others - how do you interrupt these conversations? | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Peter Pham: what impact has facebook share+connect had David Selinger: close to zero | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Jon Kubo: influencers are not the same as experts. We concentrate on fashion experts (he wasn't listening to Duncan Watts then) | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Sheldon Gilbert: email was the crack cocaine of retail; now they are throwing money at social networks without measuring it | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: David Selinger (RichRelevance): Social Networking is not really there in retail yet - not infrastructure to analyse the data | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Sheldon Gilbert: look at social graph as another input as well as climate, locality - does homophily work in retail as in telco? | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Sheldon Gilbert (Proclivity): retailers using search query profile to optimise their store end-caps. | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: Jon Kubo of WetSeal says they're trying to use social graph to say 'you should be friends with this fashion expert' | RT | ||
|
kevinmarks: interesting - unlike the last few confs I've been to people at this Social Graph Symposium aren't putting up Twitter names | RT |
