"Facebook could wind up, if it’s lucky, being the de facto identity repository for one hell of a lot of people." - Jeroen De Miranda

This presentation from two years ago is still very relevant. The 5 key principles mentioned give me another way of thinking about architecting social media sites (look at slide #40: quick check list). Two years ago the move towards microblogging was just starting; the view shown on slide #72 (blogging vs. microblogging) was at that time a good prediction of the future (i.e. microblogging with Twitter today). - Jeroen De Miranda

"You can import your Twitter updates into Yammer using the #yam tag. After linking your Yammer and Twitter accounts, any tweet that contains the #yam tag will be automatically imported into your Yammer network." - Jeroen De Miranda

leuk om dit van Hutch te lezen; ook gezien de presentatie over Microblogging binnen organisaties die ik samen met Krispijn heb gehouden op 1 december 2008 tijdens een Open Koffie (zie blog: http://www.jeroendemiranda.com/hoe-mic...) - Jeroen De Miranda

"Most marketers don’t know why they want prospects to fill out registration pages, they’ve been doing it for so long, they’ve forgotten why. I’ll remind you, there’s only two reasons: 1) To get their contact information so they can bug them. 2) To get demographic and other data so they can bug them more effectively. That’s it." - Jeroen De Miranda

“SSO in The Netherlands” (Bart Kerver – ICTU ) - Jeroen De Miranda

"FriendFeed is perhaps the best example of the network in action. Bret Taylor left Google with his colleague Jim Norris, and they became entrepreneurs-in-residence at Benchmark Capital, a venture capital firm. While seeking financing for FriendFeed, they pitched their idea to Paul Buchheit and Sanjeev Singh, two Xooglers-turned-angel investors, who had worked on Gmail. They were so impressed that they invested in and joined the company. FriendFeed’s first $5 million came mostly from Mr. Buchheit and Mr. Singh." - Jeroen De Miranda

"CE: What is your vision for FriendFeed? What can we expect in 2009? Mr. Buchheit: We're building a tool to make sharing and discussing things with friends very easy and enjoyable. Our development model and product planning is very iterative, so what we do will depend a lot on user feedback and simply watching which things work well and which don't." - Jeroen De Miranda

"CE: What are your tips to software engineers on building highly scalable software? Mr. Buchheit: Keep it simple. A lot of times people think that hard problems demand complex solutions, but we've found that the opposite is often the case, because complex things quickly become unmanageable and incomprehensible." - Jeroen De Miranda

"Sir, your innovations in email & online advertising have changed the world." - Jeroen De Miranda
