Video Interview: Leah Culver of Pownce

by Howard Greenstein

June 21, 2008 at 8:17 am · Filed under Infrastructure and Communications, Media and Entertainment, Podcasts and Video, Speakers, Supernova08, supernova2008

Leah Culver of Pownce discusses the “oEmbed” standard that first allowed Pownce to put media content from a large number of sites into user’s Pownce pages, and now allows video and photosharing sites to give a standard embed code out to other sites, without the other sites having to change the way they work.
For the user, the result is that they copy a link and the content they want to share is easily embedded.

Oliver Marks On “Openness” at Supernova

by LisaRein

June 19, 2008 at 2:04 pm · Filed under Social Platforms, Supernova08

This just in from Supernova attendee Oliver Marks, for ZdNet:
Openness.

Openness has value because of the community it generates: a perfect example of this is Firefox, and increasingly this also applies to enlightened businesses like BT. JP is successfully presenting to his board open source projects which have tremendous value and is setting a great business example of how to innovate while being flexible and cost effective. The tremendous sense of community this engenders in participants may be underestimated by some but is at the heart of successful collaboration.

Although Supernova is a somewhat rarified and idealistic/futurist event, JP’s talk was real world pragmatism - Osmosoft, a BT open source unit, was also represented at the conference and ran a Tiddlywiki community user group later that week at the same venue.

Keep those great Supernova posts coming!
