Yé! Ben! Nice chap. (en kilt.)

Eight Big Ideas of the 21st Century
(and why blogging isn’t one of them.)

Society tends to get better… (in the long term)
(an optimist!)

We are due for a renaissance.

But something weird is happening.

Information technology builds upon itself, facilitates every other type of progress.

Who here has a job he could explain to himself, if he went back in time 15 years?
(videobloging?)

Moore’s Law

Kryder’s Law

8 ideas that freak out the men in suits (resist change!):

1. Information wants to be free. (copyright)
2. Zero distance (borders)
3. Mass amateurisation (censorship)
(cost going down, now have the right to get it wrong, how long?)
4. More is much more (network blocking)
(peer to peer, free phone call)
5. True Names (Identity cards and databases)
6. Viral behaviour (more networking blocking)
7. Everything is personal (everything is trackable)
8. Ubiquitous computing (no privacy)

French government law is going to make the email illegal.

A decision point:
unstopped » progress continues
stopping: social decision
society is changing now

So what do we (I) do?
(a tipping point!)

Lucky to be here.
Like the berlin wall, mandela, etc.
(1991: web server turned on » turning point for human society)
We are living the first incarnation of a major revolution: the renaissance.
(We would have been friend with Leonard de Vinci).

Unlucky to be here. also.

Plusieurs webinars intéressants chez Apple (quand j’aurai du temps!).

Parlant d’AAPL: 74$. Cool.

Listening to the blogosphere.
(Technorati, PubSub, Bloglines, Yahoo, etc.)

– Dell Hell.
Founder of bloglines:
– future = mix of agregator, search, messaging
PubSub:
– feed of condition (weather, stock quote, etc.), newsfeed, etc.
– tell me when something happen.
Founder of Technorati:
– Linking is a form of respect, a transaction, a way of PAYING attention.

Promise to be very interesting.

Suw, Hugh (cool cartoon), Anina (model blogger), Marc (well known for sleeping).

My mensuration are 34-34-34 (peut-être que je vais avoir autant de succès (et d’attention qu’Anina!).

Some people play WoW only to socialize because their other friends are playing.

Social interaction mediated by computer: email, irc, blogs, etc.
– communication problem, not enough emotional bandwidth.
– change identity in real life (so no problem on the Internet)
– how to increase the emotional bandwidth?
– touch, physical contact is good.

Ça fait presque trois semaines (je sais, j’étais en retard) que Digg est devenu ma principale source rapide de nouvelles technologiques. Rarement aura-t-on vu un site en rattraper un autre aussi rapidement.

Boring:
rss. blablabla. ads. blablabla. security. blablabla. licence. standard. blablabla.

Interesting:
Microformast.
Marc Canter.
Structured Blogging (to stop having panel like this one…)

Keynote: Mena Trott, co-founder MovableType.

Civility and blogging.
– Can bloggers filter themselves?
– IRC backchannel, danger? fun?
– people are affraid of blogger.
– attack of the blog.
– a single blogger can cause a lot of damage.
– codes of ethic.
– don’t write things that you wouldn’t tell face to face.
– we have to live with it.
– accountability and archiving
– people would irc differently if these conversation were archived.

Mena est jolie quand elle est choquée. Vidéo ici.

Party privé de la conférence hier soir: y’a que dans des situations comme ça que tu peux passer le gros gars à l’entrée d’un bar tendance en déclarant haut et fort que tu as un blog pour qu’il te laisse passer.

Naturellement, quand on se retrouve à passer une soirée avec la crème de la crème du monde branché, on porte attention aux « portables » de tout ce monde. La tendance, c’est définitivement la série N de Nokia. Pas vu un seul Blackberry, quelques Treo, beaucoup de Sony, mais surtout des Nokia. Ici c’est le multimédia qui l’emporte.

Les putéoliens.
