mashup*
This was very much shown at the mashup\\ event that took place tonight at The Commonwealth Club in London.
It’s easy to see why the entire “2.0” phenomenon has created so much buzz - there are so many different topics, technologies, concepts, whatever to grab onto that everyone feels they have something to contribute. This was very much shown at the mashup* event that took place tonight at The Commonwealth Club in London. The public discussion itself could have continued long into the night.. instead breaking into enthusiastic more private discussions later. Of course the sheer vastness of topics meant it was difficult to cover everything to the same depth or maybe even in enough depth. Time for another mashup*..
Anyhow, it all left a lot to think about so I am going to briefly list the areas discussed and one or two thoughts and then write each of them up a bit later once I have let things settle a little.
structured blogging Basically tagging the individual parts of a blog post to create something more valuable. Is this the way forward?
IP ownership Who owns user generated content across the various mediums - why?
(re!)launch of Gamespot UK with user content stylee Is this user generated content too far or is it something that is going to drive users to Gamespot UK?
myspace uk Can the US phenomenon make it in Europe?
the napsterisation of social networks? Mark Canter talked about the launch of his new open peer to peer social network (it certainly uses enough buzz words to describe itself). Can it take on myspace and win?
old new media vs new new media does old new media need to adapt and embrace the new way or can it sit out on its own separate to the “2.0” phenomenon? have the bbc made a mistake when it says it is to invest in relaunching bbc.co.uk with user generated content?
trusting content how do you know what you read online is true? is it possible?
the future Putting everything discussed together to see where we might end up :)
I think that covers most of it.. :) meanwhile on a separate note I just managed to burn my hand in the oven.. no it seems 2.0 or not you cannot cook and blog at the same time :(
