“Little” gadget coming tomorrow …

As long as you have a sense of humor, you are invincible!

I wonder though, is it sense of humor or reality catching up? Its not so much who links to what, its the content and the way the content is delivered. Gadget sites post quick comments and mentions of products, they do not demand that I open a video player and watch a full on introduction and walk through with comments and interview mixed in. If one wants to know more, one will go look for a full review (which are often linked)…

Cool, more infomercials! Hey, you should try hawking exercise equipment. Or perhaps some sort of cooking appliance. Keep honing that sales pitch, and after all your readers abandon you you might be able to get a job on QVC.

Im giddy with excitement

Better be good. Cooking with Geeks I mean. I have some recipes!

PJ: hey, that might be fun!

Dominic: it’s boring. But the food was good! Heheh.

Boris: absolutely right. In this case it’ll be simple to describe in a blog post of, say, 300 words. Add in a short video and you’ll get everything you need to know about it.

Well, unless you’re Steve Jobs.

Or, unless you’re a software developer.

Then you’ll need to know a little more. In, which case, we’ll need to have a conversation. Probably not even tomorrow, either. Steve Jobs will probably want to know some business stuff. So, I’ll get him in touch with the Seagate folks.

Software developers will want to see the APIs. I’ll get a look at those on Thursday after seeing what kinds of things people want to know about the device after seeing it tomorrow.

Please, Scoble, ditch the attitude. The whole debate on linking was torrid, and fairly childish, and it does you no credit at all to keep bringing it back up and throwing your toys out of the pram once more.

Move on, quickly, or you will certainly lose this reader.

(Please note that this is meant as constructive criticism; please take it as such.)

Martin: good advice. Thanks!

C’mon Robert. You can tell us. We won’t tell anyone else. It will be our secret. Trust us.

seagate? you think Jobs will be watching?

Apple’s putting flash drives in most of their iPods now.. so..

just wanted to say hi to all seen some names from the past and took a mental walk down memory lane.

Hey, its 4:11am pacific time – where’s my freaking announcement?

It’s up at http://scobleizer.com/2007/01/30/welcome-to-seagates-dave-wireless-portable-storage/

I had it up at 5:01 p.m. but WordPress.com takes a few minutes to replicate it to all the servers.

Mike: yes, I do think Steve Jobs will be watching. One of the deficiencies with the new Apple iPhone is its lack of a hard drive. This gives customers of his who care about carrying more music or photos or videos with them a way to add on storage to their iPhones.

Now, will Steve Jobs like this approach? I don’t know. But, I’m sure he will want to consider the approach, at least.
