hello London! - Tina Chase Gillmor

50 miles west of London checked in! - Ian Waring

Any truth to this rumor of security issues with Outlook for iOS and Android? http://www.tomshardware.com/news... - Alex de Soto

Thanks Tina x Have to say...and cant believe I am saying this...Windows 10 is actually pretty bloomin good - Scott Jones

Labels still seem to be the big email stumbling block - Tom Guarriello

Google has been lazy for years. No focus. Look at Google Search - Moe Glitz

Exchange calendar also links up with Microsoft Lync and shows your status on Lync if you're in a meeting. - Alex de Soto

studio cat is raising a fuss - Tina Chase Gillmor

IT'S OUTLOOK!!! HOW INNOVATIVE CAN IT BE?? (Sorry!) - Tom Guarriello

Moving forward since Ballmer left - Moe Glitz

Dos was a buy in - Ian Waring

Was genuinely going to ditch microsoft, completely. Have set up windows 10 and suddenly I'm like...erm...ok..they have one last chance. Will say email wise that inbox by google is pretty decent. - Scott Jones

https://play.google.com/store... - Alex de Soto

Riveting, guys! - Tom Guarriello

The Mac Outlook client is still a dog. Does the iOS App support non-Exchange POP/IMAP? - J.C. Bouvier

iterative progress - Tina Chase Gillmor

I give Microsoft a last chance every two years! - John Taschek

hahahha - Scott Jones

email "bucket of crap" - Tina Chase Gillmor

I have to use Exchange and the iOS app works very well and very fast. Notifications are good because the app uses something called "Focused" which somehow figures out what's important, mostly based on your contacts. - Alex de Soto

The Outlook IOS and Android Preview work with pop, exchange, gmail - John Taschek

wait, did Robert just compare himself to Bill Gates? - Tina Chase Gillmor

Yes, Tina, we did hear that... - Tom Guarriello

Handle? - Tina Chase Gillmor

Consumers ditching email only Enterprise still using it - Moe Glitz

Tx John. - J.C. Bouvier

thanks Tom - Tina Chase Gillmor

I don't think the UI is better than Google's own -- it's a few functions that make the difference (which are part of user experience). But it's just fascinating -- it's like email is getting new life - John Taschek

He's heating up, People - Tina Chase Gillmor

;) - J.C. Bouvier

*Ding* - J.C. Bouvier

iOS Outlook has "Focused," emails from your contacts, and "Other" which is everything else. "Quick Filter" shows: Unread, Flagged and Files (with attachments). - Alex de Soto

did my tech crunch link go out. Usually more folks in this chat - Tina Chase Gillmor

Aren't Surfaces making a splash? Their NFL partnership seems to be going very well - Tom Guarriello

Previous versions of their own products has traditionally been their biggest competitors - Ian Waring

+100 Keith, Nadela said as much in his keynote comments; platform agnostic, experience centric...if he's serious, they've certainly got the runway... - J.C. Bouvier

Tom: only relative to past failure. Still too small a business, and if software is the futur, hardware is a distraction - Keith Teare

No doubt, Keith. Just looks like a bit of hardware success - Tom Guarriello

Think Microsoft may have to acquire to find new business revenues - Moe Glitz

Nothing like open sores coders - Frank Paynter

How about Amazon throwing Wall St a profit bone and getting a huge bump today? - Tom Guarriello

Hey, Windows Phone will support FLAC in Windows 10...don't know that it's a game changer...but there's an influential audience looking for the feature...they're doing things that guys like us are paying attention to...does it translate to cohesive ecosystem is the qeustion. - J.C. Bouvier

J.C. there aren't enough people who care about FLAC to matter. NOT A SINGLE ENTREPRENEUR at Techstars in San Antonio was carrying a Windows Phone. It's totally dead and not coming back. - Robert Scoble

39% gross margins...crazy talk. - J.C. Bouvier

Not everyone has to do 18 billion a quarter like Apple ... 5 or 10 with a software business are nice, too. - Johannes Siemers

Nice. John is very chatty today. I like that. fiesty - Tina Chase Gillmor

FLAC is nothing special. apple lossless is equivalent; uncompressed is only twice as big - Kevin Marks

Can Apple ramp to 100m iPhones a quarter...Q4 next year? - J.C. Bouvier

Apple has an integrated hyperfocus throughout design to sales and support. Everyone else is marginalized. - Arnie Klaus

Apple need the Watch to succeed, cause right now it's all about the iPhone - Moe Glitz

Apple has figured out how to ace the phone upgrade cycle. - Alex de Soto

The iPod is dying and the iPad sales are stalling - Moe Glitz

Yah, getting Chinese consumers to pay luxury prices against native vendors at 8 units to 1 is a real thing... - J.C. Bouvier

The China market was huge for Apple -- and it came at a time when the flagship Android vendors didn't come up with enough design (i.e., Samsung) - John Taschek

If there is a full Apple TV in stealth mode, now is the time to push it forward - Moe Glitz

Xaomi is doing OK - Kevin Marks

1.4 Billion Android Smartphones shipped? - John Taschek

Scoble switched back - Tina Chase Gillmor

@Kevin, I'm w/you, I'm not a real FLAC guy, just saying... - J.C. Bouvier

And China market is not proving as price sensitive as was commonly assumed. As China's economic growth continues, Apple's 40 new stores there will be hugely productive. - Tom Guarriello

An iPhone 6+ is about 1/2 the size of an iPad Mini. - Ian Waring

utterly disagree with Scoble. Apple is US ONLY. - Scott Jones

Speaking as a data point... I'm swapping back, my android for an iPhone ASAP. - Frank Paynter

Nice John, Sierra Nevada? ;) - J.C. Bouvier

Scott absolutely not true. Same numbers exist EVERYWHERE I meet with entrepreneurs. - Robert Scoble

I find tasks are taking less and less screen real estate - Ian Waring

Samsung is the new Blackberry. - J.C. Bouvier

NBC live steaming Super Bowl to all without signing in with cable provider info. - christina sponselli

Apple also succeeded in creating products that generate recurring revenues. First with the iPod (music) and now with the phone (apps) and iPad (apps and media). - Alex de Soto

Samsung still have a chance as their new Galaxy looks a carbon copy of the iPhone - Moe Glitz

Agreed... Samsung kinda blew it. The phone is well designed, but the data flows are out of control. Google eats up all of my data every month. - Frank Paynter

Its also about how much powerful and intelligence the skunkworks that a comapny has. - Arnie Klaus

Howdy geek friends - Laura Norvig

plane - Kevin Marks

Just got the Meizu MX4 Pro -- The most powerful smartphone on earth right now. - Nir Ben Yona

I really need to order more Gillmor Gang mugs. - Tina Chase Gillmor

I'd order one, Tina - Tom Guarriello

@tina sure! I love coffee and I love GG - Laura Norvig

set your photo upload to wifi only frank - Kevin Marks

I've heard data consumption issues with iPhones too. The more apps you have.... - Alex de Soto

Thanks kevin, sounds like a good idea - Frank Paynter

Inc the USA - Ian Waring

what about Amazon getting into enterprise email? - Tina Chase Gillmor

it wouldn't be like the FF experience if it doesn't archive and display well - Laura Norvig

Twitter lacks internal vision. Users made that company - Moe Glitz

Why did so many folks come to Dick Costelo's defense this week? Was he under fire? - J.C. Bouvier

we'dlove to have some of you visit in the chat for G3. Lonley there so far, right Darius? - Tina Chase Gillmor

The Lurking Gang - Moe Glitz

Isn't the core issue with DM on Twitter Just how many people mistake a 'private' channel with the 'public' version? It's been the undoing of plenty... - Monty Hamilton

that was more an sms problem monty - Kevin Marks

Excellent set up, Keith! - Tom Guarriello

less likely with the web or the app clients - Kevin Marks

Set up an IRC channel if you want to replace FriendFeed - Jeff

Ding! The secret "woid": notifications. Tina: You should have a duck come down when that word is first mentioned. - Alex de Soto

@Kevin - The proximity of two messaging channels in the UI is just confusing - nobody uses Twitter via SMS/Text here in Australia - it's always been in the app... FB is fundamentally different UI - Monty Hamilton

drinking game. used to be "track" now it's "notifications" - Laura Norvig

a notification sound effect - Kevin Marks

you need an app to have a notiication - Robin Jewsbury

we don't have radar detectors anymore - Tina Chase Gillmor

FB split the app deliberately - Kevin Marks

need cop finders - Tina Chase Gillmor

in my view to make notifications clearer - Kevin Marks

have to return to the stand-alone radar detector - Frank Paynter

Notification enable efficient response only. - Jeff

i still flash my lights! - Tony Stanislawski

why would they take that out. it's good for people to slow down. and it's not as if cop cars are incognito ... - Laura Norvig

me tooTony - Tina Chase Gillmor

Response + Intelligence is the future of notifications; otherwise it is nothing but a pager on steroids - John Taschek

Yah, what's the API from FriendFeed into SFDC? - J.C. Bouvier

Notification aware Siri... - J.C. Bouvier

I'm bummed I missed G3 this week. Had a con. call while you were recording, Tina. - Darius Dunlap

Of course the guys aren't going to talk about the Newsweek article/cover - Tina Chase Gillmor

Notifications don't support me when I want to post - Jeff

Jack Dorsey: Twitter is the closest thing we have to a global consciousness. And I believe the world needs that right now. - clive boulton

you guys should really make notes ;-) - Tina Chase Gillmor

Twitter needs to find a revenue model - Moe Glitz

2 percent are creators; 98 percent are librarians - Jeff. Notifications is for the librarians - John Taschek

http://www.newsweek.com/2015... - Alex de Soto

love this post too: http://blog.ameliagreenhall.com/post... - Kevin Marks

Fair comment John. maybe I'm part of the 2% - Jeff

what about just listen - Tina Chase Gillmor

or let women speech in meetings? - Tina Chase Gillmor

or invite them onto boards? - Tina Chase Gillmor

Tacky cover. But that's what the Media think of women - Moe Glitz

or..... - Tina Chase Gillmor

Me I thought the cover fit the article - Tina Chase Gillmor

or have them on Gillmor Gang - Robin Jewsbury

http://shesgeeky.org/ - Kevin Marks

but many people totally disagree with me - Tina Chase Gillmor

Amelia's post was excellent, obvious the real MVC founder. - clive boulton

There is pattern matching that is meaningful and pattern matching that is bullshit. The former is much more rare than the latter. - Darius Dunlap

link Clive? - Tina Chase Gillmor

men have children too - Kevin Marks

But when it's your own pattern matching, it's very difficult to recognize one from the other - Darius Dunlap

I just posted it tina - Kevin Marks

Via Kevin http://blog.ameliagreenhall.com/post... - clive boulton

you'e both right - Tina Chase Gillmor

Has anybody else watched the brilliant woman in a meeting get her idea stolen, co-opted, and adopted by the alpha male who is happy to take credit for the stolen idea? - Frank Paynter

Yep, Tine. But personal confidence is not the whole story. - Darius Dunlap

few women learn to "brag", "strut their stuff", etc - Tina Chase Gillmor

it's not about favors - Tina Chase Gillmor

heard Maxine Williams - Facebook diversity person - on a podcast just the other day - can't remember which podcast - a lot about need to be way more deliberate in recruiting and hiring for diversity - Laura Norvig

yes laura, that's what I was saying - Kevin Marks

good question steve - Tina Chase Gillmor

Frank: Skill always been getting the alpha male (or female) to adopt and take credit for your idea. - clive boulton

a "male" view - Tina Chase Gillmor

absolutely - Jeff

I've said before, if you are having trouble deciding between a "guy like me" and another person, woman, black man, whatever... Pick the latter, because they had to be better to get where they are. - Darius Dunlap

Friendfeed and the live broadcast are so out of sync for me. There's a delay with the video on Ustream or with Friendfeed. A seven second broadcast delay? Maybe that's a good thing. - Alex de Soto

the supply of smart white young male engineers is so abundant ... - Laura Norvig

always, always, always have a diverse work force. It's just good business. - Jeff

can't see it scoble - Kevin Marks

Men who think that way are less than men. And only Men can change that. - Darius Dunlap

How many women are on the boards of any major company, never mind Tech - Moe Glitz

"Us" are humans - Tina Chase Gillmor

Clive: sometimes getting the idea out there is more important than the credit, but getting credit for the idea increases a person's capital... women get ripped off over and over in my experience - Frank Paynter

Good point Tina. - Simon Benvenutto

VC look for "strong" founders. But what does a "strong" founder look like? - Tina Chase Gillmor

This is an excellent study from Harvard. Not tech-related, but very apropos: http://www.law.harvard.edu/student... - Alex de Soto

because someone believed in her - Tina Chase Gillmor

Frank: good point. - clive boulton

Yep, Tina. They may be better served by looking for thoughtful and intelligent founders. - Darius Dunlap

YMCA Combinator - Kevin Marks

Ha! Excellent, Kevin - Darius Dunlap

It wasn't for women's benefit. It was for the war effort - Tina Chase Gillmor

More child care. Better eduction. More paid leave - Tina Chase Gillmor

The problem is boys..... http://www.npr.org/blogs... ..... they kill women's confidence. - Roger Shepherd

Yep, Roger. - Darius Dunlap

Most companies hire the token 'Asian, Latin, African, Woman' to feel as if they are part of the modern world. - Moe Glitz

Brad Fitzpatrick - Kevin Marks

Although, I'll point out that women to it to one another, too. - Darius Dunlap

Im happy to hear the guys tackle theses issue. Sometime on G3 it feels like we're saying the same thing over and over but often preaching to the choir - Tina Chase Gillmor
