Think I'll Meerkat my commentary on the GG this afternoon!
- Tom Guarriello
Tom: interesting!
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Time to research a chatroom alternative in earnest!
- Laura Norvig
New GG app ready for FF shutdown April 9? http://on.recode.net/1C2xwLO
- clive boulton
there's always IRC
- Kevin Marks
rooms?
- Roger Shepherd
I've never groked IRC feels bereft social skin
- clive boulton
Finally found where to type in IRC. work fine in a crunch.
- clive boulton
Was thinking hack an app in https://www.firebase.com/
- clive boulton
or use Slack
- Kevin Marks
Slack sounds more like GG
- clive boulton
Gap
- Tom Guarriello
I use that clip in my branding class every year
- Tom Guarriello
With a huge mic.
- Nir Ben Yona
Keith, you're a little out of focus
- Tom Guarriello
who her can make http://webchat.freenode.net/... work for them
- Kevin Marks
Yeah - I'm jealous of that mic
- Roger Shepherd
its a hang over
- Keith Teare
" For notifications sent to Apple Watch, the system lets the the user know subtly that a notification is available" _ think this means tactile
- Robin Jewsbury
Wicked one, Keith!
- Tom Guarriello
we are interested in other chatroom alternatives. I know Friendfeed has been effectively dead for a while but Im gonna miss it.
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Clive... if you've got an idea
- Tina Chase Gillmor
but it pops up if you turn your wrist
- Kevin Marks
what a large mic you've got there John T
- Tina Chase Gillmor
"You’ll know right away when someone sends you a message, because a notification appears front and center on Apple Watch. Hold up your wrist to read the message, or lower your arm to dismiss it."
- Kevin Marks
so who buys a 10-20k apple watch that is out of date in 6 months?
- Michael Roberts
these people do, Michael http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2012...
- Kevin Marks
gillmorgang.slack.com is already taken, can someone invite me?
- clive boulton
Michael - but people are buying watches which are years out of date at those prices - I don't get the "out of date" argument. If it broke I can see the problem - and the key issue there must be the battery but that is replaceable.
- Roger Shepherd
The mic does look incredibly large -- same one.. Must be the camera angle.
- John Taschek
The out of date issue, Michael, is very important -- there has to be some flexibility and pacing
- John Taschek
"Apps are not required to do anything to support notifications. The system provides a default notification interface that displays the alert message from the notification. However, apps can customize the notification interface and include custom graphics, content, and branding" from programmers guide
- Robin Jewsbury
Casio Watch the new Kodak!
- clive boulton
John T - big is fine ;-)
- Tina Chase Gillmor
tweets barely fit
- Kevin Marks
$325 g-shock fuhgeddaboudit
- clive boulton
Roger: I know people who buy 30k watches, old, new - but these are classic watches often charged by motion - often they gain value over time - not so sure of the apple watch gold edition - my sense is those people will always want the latest version - but I suppose if one can afford to pay 20k maybe it doesn't matter.
- Michael Roberts
I do not understand why Apple asks for AppleCare+ subscription for the Watch Edition to extend the warranty to 3 years.
- Alex de Soto
stanford heart app got researchkit http://cliveboulton.com/post...
- clive boulton
we don't know what we don't know
- Tina Chase Gillmor
politcal polling by watch predicted in Interface by Neal Stephenson https://books.google.com/books...
- Kevin Marks
+1 Tina
- Tom Guarriello
sorry I'm late ... what, you started with out me??
- Laura Norvig
Michael: It is an interesting question... I think the a "limited supply" (1000) Mark Newson Edition could be very appealing... I don't think we've seen the Edition launched yet.... But at $10,000+ the Edition is what is causing the changes that are being discussed by the gang at the moment
- Roger Shepherd
Frantic pounding outside the Gillmor Gang Studios. Hope you can't hear it
- Tina Chase Gillmor
No problem here, Tina
- Tom Guarriello
Laura ;-)
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Tom :-) oh good
- Tina Chase Gillmor
<3
- Laura Norvig
Sequoia / Madrona partners pass around Neal's Snow Crash. I guess I better read it.
- clive boulton
Did anyone else notice in the apple presentation how they hid the giant iphone arm band on the runnner while showcasing the tiny watch as if that's all that was needed. That said, so smart of apple to make you have to buy the iphone to use the watch - apple watch creates a very important reason to buy the iphone.
- Michael Roberts
ustream is lagging for me - anyone else?
- Laura Norvig
yes that was very amusing
- Kevin Marks
Bingo Kevin! (I knew Git did private pay / public free, but missed the business impact)
- clive boulton
blogging now = Medium.com
- christina sponselli
speaking of blogging ... hear medium is offering custom domains
- Laura Norvig
noooo
- Kevin Marks
jinx christina!
- Laura Norvig
I think not: http://www.kevinmarks.com/puzzled...
- Kevin Marks
if you want a great blog try http://withknown.com
- Kevin Marks
they will host domains for you. Medium is only doing that for big co's right now
- Kevin Marks
medium has the power of twitter's network, too.
- christina sponselli
Absolutely right! - I was thinking you might just drag your finger on the watch and you create your color oriented notification - maybe a swirl of colours - that I know and notifies me.
- Michael Roberts
I started on withknown but I'm so set up on Wordpress>Medium that I couldn't get it done
- Francine Hardaway
Francine, I know the Known folks would love to hear your problems
- Kevin Marks
Tumblr does awesome custom domains
- clive boulton
My problem is just inertia Kevin.
- Francine Hardaway
they did make a wordpress importer
- Kevin Marks
Nothing wrong with withknown
- Francine Hardaway
Oh, they did?
- Francine Hardaway
OK I'll try to do it this weekend
- Francine Hardaway
John: exactly - when I see the medium brand I often thought of it has a higher quality of writing - a least the posts I've seen to date - if that's gone then its just a technical platform only - to me its a bit like having an @well account - emails form there meant something at one time
- Michael Roberts
Camlistore, git your family photos anyone?
- clive boulton
haven't used my withknown since I created it ... have to get back to it. Can it do a Friendfeed kind of thing and pull in posts from my social? EDIT: never mind. I see it pushes rather than pulls.
- Laura Norvig
I won't give up Medium because of the distribution
- Francine Hardaway
you have to share to medium manually, as medium don't have an api
- Kevin Marks
there is an "import story" on medium now
- Kevin Marks
medium doesn't have tumblr like reblog?
- clive boulton
If I can keep syndicating everything all around, I'll adopt new platforms
- Francine Hardaway
they have recommend
- Kevin Marks
Microsoft has also added collaborative editing with Dropbox files on Mac OSX. (The DropBox badge).
- Alex de Soto
Laura teher are ways to bring otehr posts into known
- Kevin Marks
eg ownyourgram.com will crosspost your instagrams
- Kevin Marks
Those voice responses can either be transcribed or sent as voice messages on Apple Watch
- Tom Guarriello
I wonder if "driving while talking to your watch" will be a traffic offense
- Laura Norvig
Will Salesforce buy Watches for employees? Like laptops or phones?
- Tom Guarriello
I'm tell you all now. Im gonna need the watch to project a larger image ingot he air. Can you work on that for me. Watch is still a few weeks away. ;-)
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Why look at Instagram on your small Apple Watch screen. When you have your big arse screen iPhone 6 Plus in your pocket
- Moe Glitz
Watch ushers in headless apps. Notifications bereft UI
- clive boulton
remote control of phone camera is good
- Kevin Marks
"Speed it up a little!" notification.
- Alex de Soto
Enterprise Orchestration
- Moe Glitz
The new chat center will focus on this - mobile employers/employees needing to be available. new domain too - http://chat.center - about a week from now
- Keith Teare
stunning how good Lollipop notifications are. I don't need to open apps up (Steve dead right)
- clive boulton
I'd love the see the Droste effect executed well on the Apple Watch.
- Alex de Soto
Kevin I only see a Blogger import tool
- Francine Hardaway
'click to watch' -
- Michael Roberts
watch is really a small 'lollipop'.
- clive boulton
Yes, guys, but the Re/Coders say Millennials aren't excited about Apple Watch so it'll flop! http://recode.net/2015...
- Tom Guarriello
There is a challenge with assuming a sales person will get all the data they need on their wrist, they currently don't have all the data they need all the time when they're at the cash register.
- Josh Bradshaw
That's more like it, John!
- Tom Guarriello
My jury's out about the watch until I wear it.
- Francine Hardaway
Same with me Francine.
- Josh Bradshaw
BYODs to work, but don't bring your own email server!
- clive boulton
exactly - just putting the same stuff on that small screen doesn't seem to make a lot of sense - creating new ways to use the screen will emerge
- Michael Roberts
Italian friendfeed clone: http://www.frenf.it/ EDIT: early adopter sign up http://www.frenf.it/earlyad...
- Laura Norvig
Peter does scenarios...not surprising!!
- Tom Guarriello
6 months from the release of the watch is end of October, start of Christmas season sales. The stories Apple will tell around the watch will change. Now their messaging is targeted to developers and the brand loyalists. Later they will target the masses.
- Josh Bradshaw
wife? not true
- Tina Chase Gillmor
I wonder when apple will release a new version of the watch - as they learn what's not working and what's working - better batteries and screen and thinner.
- Michael Roberts
notifications mess with your adrenaline / cortisol levels
- Laura Norvig
+1 Laura
- Tom Guarriello
Michael I think more what you're going to see changing is the software than the hardware. It won't be a Samsung five or six in a row thing.
- Josh Bradshaw
I'd lease a gold watch:-)
- Francine Hardaway
re cortisol: I can see the Apple Healthkit notification: Notifications may cause weight gain due to elevated cortisol
- John Taschek
Huge watch spot is heart patients bcos insurance only reimburses surgery not recurring ER visits.
- clive boulton
Notice I didn't mention ManU Arsenal, Keith?? ;)
- Tom Guarriello
Josh: I agree - they have to careful here esp. if it is to be branded as a fashion product - its needs to have some sort of life - not just rapid fire hardware upgrades
- Michael Roberts
Thanks for not mentioning it
- Keith Teare
Do you hope we beat Tottenham
