I should probably call this something other than a Twitter-like ecosystem, but that's what it is -- and that's the only thing to call it. There's been a lot of discussion lately about whether a for-pay or ad-supported model works better. What's been overlooked is that there's a third option. Use the web. It turns out that most of what's needed for something open that functions like Twitter is alre
It was announced a couple of years ago that the Library of Congress was archiving all posts to Twitter for historic purposes. I thought I had written about why this is wrong, but I searched, and couldn't find it. So briefly here's why it is wrong.
I hear it everywhere. The web is dead, apps are the future. I heard it first on the cover of Wired Magazine in March 1997 and again in August 2010. I was so impressed I added it to my blogroll, as a reminder to all that you're reading a dead medium. That was said in jest, of course. I'll keep playing here while the rest of you flirt with apps. I'll be here when you come back. I know it's going to
I've been to so many big earth-shaking events from BigTechCo's -- today's Google thing is making me yawn, while my eyes glaze over in boredom. Here's how products like this are conceived: 1. We need to kill Facebook. 2. What will we do. 3. It can't just be Facebook. 4. No one will use that. 5. It has to be better. 6. It has to be something only we can do. 7. Some place where we have the advantage.
I spent the last couple of days creating an installable scripting2.root, with a howto. That's the software I use to edit this weblog and produce all the feeds. The sites are fully baked, meaning they can be hosted anywhere. It's set up to, by default, host sites on Amazon S3. One of the things I tripped over while testing the release is some code I forgot I had written. It manages a file that's wh
Thursday, December 17, 2009 by Dave Winer. Marco at Tumblr says that he was inspired by the "seriously clever" use of the Twitter API by WordPress. Of course I was too. When they came out with it I wondered out loud if the Twitter API is now an open standard. Well, less than a week later, Tumblr now has implemented the Twitter API, and as a result you can use any Twitter-compatible tool to post to
Sunday, September 20, 2009 by Dave Winer. Here is a Unix shell command that gets the address of my RSS feed: dig +short davewiner.supercloud.org TXT It makes a DNS call to get the TXT record associated with davewiner.supercloud.org. That's different from an A record or a CNAME record. TXT records are used for things like this. That's why when you go there in your browser it doesn't go anywhere. I
Wednesday, June 27, 2007 by Dave Winer. Of course I'd like to do what Twitter does, and generate a Tinyurl in place of a longish URL for each TwitterGram. I had assumed all along that Twitter had a special deal with the TInyurl folks, but apparently not so. They have an open API that is simplicity itself. It's so simple it's almost hard to describe.

Saturday, June 23, 2007 by Dave Winer. The other day I was thinking about other kinds of Twitters. The thing we like about Twitter is that you can't post a book-length story about what's going on right now, you can only do a 140-character synopsis -- "I just got on BART" or "Driving to NoobCamp." It's one of those Worse Is Better or Less Is More things we like so much about the Internet. So I star
Thomas Hawk: "I'm scared of Google's stock price." Yahoo says they improved Yahoo TV, but imho, they broke it. The listings page, which until today was the only page I knew or cared about (they just added a bunch of community features) took a few seconds to load, now it's an Ajax thing, and it loads as you scroll. Great. There's a delay every time I hit Page Down. Now instead of finding out if the
To: Executive Staff and direct reports From: Ray Ozzie Date: October 28, 2005 Subject: The Internet Services Disruption It is an exciting time, as we’re at the beginning of the biggest product cycle in the company’s history. In a week we ship new versions of Visual Studio, SQL Server and BizTalk Server. Later thi
I spent some time this week reviewing the UI of Radio UserLand, released in 2002. It was both a feed reader and a writing tool. # One would have thought, btw, that from that start that all subsequent blogging tools would have the same connections, even if the functionality was not all in the same product. But then came Twitter and Facebook, and they said they weren't blogs, and presumably would st
