John’s Predictions

1. Google will give Apple the most competition of any other company in mobile
2. Apple will begin to take web services seriously, embrace “content in the cloud”
3. Early adopters will burn out on social media
4. eBook readers will become mainstream, $9.99 will remain the standard price point. Big publishers scream in agony. Magazine publishers need it to survive.
5. Facebook’s privacy settings will spur lawsuits
6. Live and real-time will be commonplace among early adopters

Steve’s Predictions:

1. SEO is Dead! Long-live real-time search
2. The fax machine will see a resurgence via twitter
3. iPhone and Android adoption will start driving down data plan costs to make mobile data almost free
4. Apple’s Tablet will be a no-show or way too expensive to be relevant
5. Microsoft will finally lose ubiquity with IE due to the EU settlement and the push of Firefox, Chrome and other Webkit browsers (Safari)
6. Location based apps will be standard for all devices (mobile and otherwise)
7. No one in the ODM Crew will buy a Blueray player or disc EVER!
8. By Q4 2010 30% of all TV sold will be Internet capable
9. Cloud computing … was the hype in 2009, but will be a standard for all tech companies including Apple
10. Facebook will hit 500M users by the end of the year

Craig’ s Predictions:

1. Hyper local will be old news
2. You’ll have no Mac tablet and like it
3. Tiger Woods will keep sponsorship with EA Sports Gaming
4. Bing will leave Yahoo in the dust and easily take over 2nd place in search
5. The Bing iphone app will be huge

Chia-Lin’s predictions:

1. Android will be 15% of the smartphone market in US market by end of 2010, Android market place will be extensive
2. Lala will be Apple’s cloud/web service for media distribution, starting to minimize their download model
3. The eReader market will heat up by Q4 , 2010. The Kindle will hit critical mass for Q4 holiday season, and go for a sale price of $100
4. The magazine “hulu” by the consortium of magazine providers will build momentum by Q3 in terms of partnerships, but not launch until 20115.
5. Chia-Lin will have the Starwars sleeping bag from ThinkGeek that was featured in Gizmodo (sleeping in guts is the way to keep warm on a frozen planet after all…). Will never be able to get a mini-donut maker since she is devoting 2010 to taking a pilates classes and getting in shape…
6. Chia-Lin may end up with a iphone…tech gods willing…(or else, she will have to go with the Droid by mid next year)

• Rob will be attending the CrunchUp event next week in the valley
• Craig will attend the Glasshouse event in NYC on Monday, 11/16
• John and Craig will attend Web 2.0 Expo NY
• Google Wave vs. Threadsy
• Mozilla releases plans, screenshots for its Raindrop universal inbox. Chia-Lin thinks it may have the potential of being vaporware.
• We’re waiting for mobile clients (especially on the iPhone) to support Twitter Lists. Threadsy is working on Twitter Lists support.
• Parse.ly is in private beta. Read Write Web calls it “The Pro Bloggers Feed Reader.” Lazyweb is a similar client. It’s going to be a tough job for some of these services to get people to switch from Google Reader.
• Chia-Lin is holding back on her Droid purchase. It’s only a CMDA phone that she can’t use internationally plus, she thinks that Verizon may get the iPhone. Will Verizon get the iPhone any time soon? We hash it out.
• John has started reading Kindle books on his iPhone…even after questioning why anyone would do that. Doh!
• The ODM crew wants to know if John has purchased any more Vooks. Yes, he decided to give Vooks another chance and bought Gary Vaynerchuk’s “Crush It” in Vook format.
• Amazon has just released Kindle software for Windows that’s decidedly for the netbook crowd.
• The class action lawsuits against the social gaming companies have arrived. Are Facebook and Myspace liable for the actions of these networks? We doubt it.
• A boxee box is coming! We want.
• Rob built his own MythTV box!
• Netflix may support the MPAA 30-day window on new releases! We’re not happy.
• Why not release James Cameron’s upcoming film “Avatar” across all platforms at once, just to see how the revenue streams unfold?
• Rupert Murdoch said that he’s going to block Google and remove all content from his properties from the search engine. Hah!
• “This is the media mogul equivalent of Jumping the Shark.”
• An interesting coup for Microsoft should Murdoch cut a deal with Bing to allow them to index his content. Hmmmm…

• Sirius XM Year-Over-Year Net Susbcribers haven’t increased in a year
• AT&T’s Network Problems Could be Self-Induced by Poor Architecture
• Chia-Lin has groped the Droid and is in love with this new gadget.
• Google has released Android 2.0 along with Droid, brings free Google Maps turn-by-turn navigation. A game changer, to be sure.
• Even with an exclusive on the Palm Pre, Sprint still lost subscribers last quarter
• We love Julius Genachowski, the new head of the FTC. The FTC wants to buy back TV spectrum to make it available for mobile devices.
• Broadband is now a universal right in Norway.
• Netflix Streaming is coming to the PS3 and Wii
• Roku released two new boxes: the Roku HD-XR and the Roku SD
• Netflix will offer a streaming-only service, but not in the US. WTF!? It probably has something to do with rights.
• Steve would drop cable altogether and go IPTV. What about Cable a la carte? Never happen.

• Conan O’Brien and Newark Mayor Cory Booker are having a fun little sparring match. Conan is using the airwaves while Cory is using YouTube.
• Comcast is in talks to by NBC Universal in whole or in part. Thank goodness for CMRR (Committed Monthly Recurring Revenue)!
• Harper Collins is holding back the digital release of the upcoming book by Sarah Palin in order to drive hardcover sales. The ebook won’t be released until after Christmas.
• Do people buy Kindle devices because the books are less expensive, knowing that they’ll earn their investment back over time? We’d like some data on that…
• John bought his first Vook today.
• Apple has approached magazine publishers about creating “iTunes for Print” with the magazines to be read on the company’s upcoming tablet. The magazine industry thinks it can do it themselves.
• Senator Benjamin Cardin has proposed a bailout for the newspaper industry. We cringe. Let them become extinct - just as long as journalism doesn’t die with them. We need journalism but we don’t need newspapers.
• CNN just released their iPhone app.
• Sirius XM is now adding an additional $2 fee to your monthly bill to cover the performance royalty fees paid to musicians and artists.
• Since Howard Stern’s deal with Sirius was tied to the stock price which is now at an all-time low, how will he have fared at the end of his contract?
• Howard Stern will be the greatest, most successful podcaster ever once his contract with Sirius XM is up. It would also make a great iPhone app!
• Click rates on display ads have dropped 50% to only 16% of the online audience.
• “The ad networks are ruining online publishing.” — Whiny Publishers
• CPM ads on videos are doing pretty well, according to Viddler.
• Free All Media wants to deliver ad-supported song downloads. It’s like Deja Vu all over again…
• Pandora went from near death to profitability in a year’s time. Steve actually uses his free 40 hours per month. Wow.
• Metallica will be selling live tracks on LiveMetallica.com - mp3 or FLAC.

• Craig was featured in articles on Forbes.com and AdAge.com representing TravelZoo
• Craig’s team at TravelZoo won the SAMMY Award (MediaPost’s Social Media Award) for The Top Branded Twitter Campaign beating out MadMen and M&M Mars. Congratulations to Craign and the TravelZoo team!
• Audible.com is still hiring developers. You get to work with Steve Hatch! (Trust me, that’s a good thing. – jf.)
• Breaking News! Twitter has new avatars!
• Twitter will add geo-location as a built-in feature. Don’t worry, it will be opt-in.
• John is using a combination of BrightKite, FourSquare and GoWalla for location-based status updates.
• Twitter doesn’t want to have to deal with subpeonas - after 14 days, the location metadata associated with your tweets is expunged.
• “Project Retweet” is an effort to redesign the user experience of retweets - this time, officially by twitter as opposed to the community.
• Tweetie already supports the Project Retweet API extensions
• John has decided to add video to the mix during ODM recording sessions. They’ll be posted in the show notes on occassion.
• Steve equates the retweet with FriendFeed’s and Facebook’s “Like” feature and that it will ultimately morph into the same nomenclature and user experience.
• Craig believes that retweet etiquette requires the retweeter to add value in some way to the retweet. (The value IS the retweet! It’s “retweet-worthy!”)
• Mashable asks if people are ready for the features of Project Retweet. Justine Bateman wasn’t as the change caused some confusion until she realized what was going on - and she’s Twitter-savvy. What about people who aren’t? Apparently her
• BlackBerry Twitter client (UberTwitter) already supports the Project Retweet API extensions as well.
• Justin Timberlake has signed on to appear in the movie “The Accidental Billionaire” based on the book of the same name.
• 27% of people access twitter through dedicated applications. How could a company like comScore track that? Do they track API calls? Do people in their panel note the fact that they use Twitter apps? Craig will ask and report back.
• Twitter just raised $100 million to support the build-out of all these service updates - at an approximate $1 billion valuation!
• Jason Fried’s Satirical post about the 37Signals “$100 Billion valuation” pokes fun at Twitter’s recent funding and valuation
• Where’s our Audible sponsorship, damnit?! Jonathan? Are you listening?
• Livestream launches Livepack - the world’s first solution for wireless live streaming at HD quality

• John wil be speaking at Web2Open at the Web 2.0 Expo New York on Social Media Hacks
• Craig shares a Social Media Hack that will make its way into my presentation!
• Send any social media hacks, tips or tricks you have to comments@odmcast.com
• Google Sidewiki was released for FireFox and IE browsers - it’s a distributed commenting/social discussion system
• Remember ThirdVoice? It was the original distributing commenting system that was launched - and died - during the dotcom boom.
• Danny Sullivan used Sidewiki in a unique way (http://bit.ly/3bbzUY), commenting on Seth Godin’s post about Squidoo’s “Brands in Place” service. Not sure why people were so ruffled by Brands in Place. In a way, it’s not much different than allowing anyone to create a space on GetSatisfaction.com.
• Google introduces Google Frame for IE Browsers, bringing the standards compliant Webkit rendering engine to Internet Explorer - and a 10x increase in speed. Surprise! Microsoft doesn’t like it. We hope it will push Microsoft to make IE much better than it is currently.
• Mike Abundo from 901am writes about The Delusions of Carol Bartz.
• Comparing Yahoo’s decline with AOL’s decline.
• Yahoo is selling off Yahoo Small Business
• AOL’s decline was hastened by the rise of broadband. Yahoo’s decline was hastened by lack of focus and competing services.
• Looking for a new gig? You can probably make a difference at Yahoo or AOL - and they’re hiring.
• iRex announced the DR800SG with global 3G downloads and partnerships with Barnes & Noble for eBooks, wireless connectivity through Verizon and retail sales through Best Buy.
• AT&T finally allows MMS on the iPhone
• Newspaper publishers divide over paid content - too bad their consumers aren’t! Only a small fraction said they would pay 2 cents per article.
• OneForty.com is an app store for Twitter. Congratulations to Laura Fitton (@pistachio)

• Ken is now living in the Boston area and looking for a new gig
• WSJ is going to start charging for mobile access to subscription content. There will be discounts for current subscribers.

• Google bough ReCaptcha as a tool for helping digitize books
• Google will make many of the books that it has scanned as part of its Google Books initiative via print-on-demand
• Smashing Pumpkins will be distributing their new album in its entirety for free. If you want, you can buy one of the 11 collectors editions. That works for major acts, but what about the thousands of other musicians and performers?
• Check out JamsBio.com
• “The artists took over merch, ClearChannel and others took over the venues. All that’s left are the CD’s and lawsuits.”
• ASCAP and BMI want royalties for the 30-second samples on iTunes and other downloadable musi retailers.
