Analyzing Seesmic’s Next Move: Moving Online To The Offline?

It’s quite interesting to see how Seesmic has progressed over the years. I remember how they used to be focused on trying to be the video version of Twitter (minus the 140 character limit) and that people were going around posting video conversations of themselves on the site. Soon it was integrated into commenting systems […]

Video commenting on blogs: Wave of the Future?

In the past couple of months, there have been several big developments on video blogging. Perhaps most important is that two big applications have offered their services to allow people to post comments on blog posts. But not just any comment…these are video comments (I’ll wait for the “oohs” and “ahhs”). The two that I […]

Seesmic your videos on your website

Did you know that Seesmic had jumped on the widget bandwagon? I found out through Loic’s YouTube video and of course I’d love to post more videos on Seesmic (it’s a more viral network than YouTube!), but while Seesmic is still a “private” network, let your videos propogate throughout the world by having people view […]

Seesmic can bridge the world!

I discovered Seesmic probably about a few months ago and it seemed to be in its infancy, but these days, it’s been making some remarkable breakthroughs including a post from a US soldier in Iraq! Imagine no longer waiting for lines to communicate with your loved ones. If you have a mobile phone, you can […]

What’s intriguing about this is that the company, BT, is asking its young graduates that they hire to spearhead this campaign. And […]

My results of a social experiment

So as many (or at least some) of you know, I recently headed down to New Orleans for the Allstate BCS Sugar Bowl at the Superdome. Seeing that this was going to be perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime chance, I thought I’d share this moment with as many people as I could, but obviously within limits. So […]

Offering my two-cents on the Twitter-Seesmic war

Okay, so there’s not a war between Twitter and Seesmic. In fact, everything is quite cordial…no problems whatsoever. So why did I call it a war? Well I thought it would spark some interest in this posting. Richard Scoble recently posted a Seesmic video in which he explains why he finds Seesmic better than Twitter. […]

From Twittering thumbs to extreme Utterances and to Seesmic expressions: the Evolution of Communication

I’ve noticed over the course of the past few weeks, there has been a huge evolution in how people communicate in the digital age. If you’ve been on your cell phone and also on the Internet, then sending and receiving text messages isn’t anything new and is used quite often by the younger generation (those […]

Seesmic: The New YouTube?

Thanks go out to my friend, Peter Corbett, of iStrategyLabs for twittering about this latest and greatest thing that should be all the rage in the near future. I haven’t personally tried it, but the concept seems to be a little more personal than that of YouTube and have a different course. This new social […]
