Does the Internet really need a Delete Tool?

Does the Internet really need a Delete Tool?

By Dan Morrill on May 8, 2013

Does the Internet really need a Delete Tool? Every once in a while someone comes along with an idea that makes sense, but given the value of the data we put out there for governments, employers, and marketing folks, I don’t think a delete tool for the internet is going to happen. I am sure […]

Why you should not use a photographer’s work for Bullying

Why you should not use a photographer’s work for Bullying

By Dan Morrill on September 13, 2012

Over the weekend I had a wonderful time doing coverage of Seattle’s own Slut Walk to help highlight the issues with sexual abuse, abuse, violence towards women, rape, and a host of other societal ills that I actually think are very uncool.  This is one of those issues I have an opinion about. What was […]

Why I am leaving Smugmug. Hint: it is not just about the money

Why I am leaving Smugmug. Hint: it is not just about the money

By Dan Morrill on September 10, 2012

About seven years ago, a friend of mine who was helping me get into photography recommended that I check out Smugmug, and a wonderful relationship was born. I love, have loved, and will appreciate Smugmug even as I am walking away from the web site. Over the last three years I have shoved some 853,000 […]

Primadesk Brings One Interface to Cloud Content

Primadesk Brings One Interface to Cloud Content

By Ben Kepes on July 16, 2012

Those who call ourselves early adopters have a tendency to sign up to services on a regular basis. If I think about where my own content sits – I have images in Picasa, Flickr and Facebook. Documents in Google Drive, DropBox, Box and Syncplicity, contacts in at least a couple

Arbitrary censorship and unevenly applied rules at Facebook and Smugmug

Arbitrary censorship and unevenly applied rules at Facebook and Smugmug

By Dan Morrill on June 25, 2012

When Facebook logged me out everywhere, including social networks like Klout, Kred, Empire Avenue, and Facebook feeds into other systems, the amount of hysteria caused by automated connections, and the Facebook SSO sign on multiple sites failed

I wish that Klout allowed for divergent systems

I wish that Klout allowed for divergent systems

By Dan Morrill on September 25, 2011

I like Klout; it is an interesting system that can be easily tweaked to work with the major social systems out there. Klout support most of the major systems such as Facebook, Blogger, Flickr, and others to try to put together a bird’s eye view of how your influence and supporters/followers tend to influence others […]

Does Every Company Need a Robert Scoble? (infographic)

Does Every Company Need a Robert Scoble? (infographic)

By Mark Fidelman on January 5, 2011

What I learned in 2010 can be summed up in one individual Except for reading the occasional year end articles (notables include Kotadia, Maggie Fox, McAfee) I typically skip the tradition of trying to summarize an entire year in 10 bullet points. The Enterprise 2.0/Social Business space is just too dynamic with many starts, stops […]

iPad’s Climb Up the Disruptive Innovation Cycle

iPad’s Climb Up the Disruptive Innovation Cycle

By Hutch Carpenter on October 5, 2010

Blockbuster’s recent bankruptcy filing was yet another chapter in the Clayton Christensen annals of disruptive innovation. A major brand with convenient locations that got disrupted by a website and the U.S. Mail. Note that we’re seeing the backend of the disruption, when it all seems so clear. How easy is it to see such a […]

Picnik gets acquired by Google

Picnik gets acquired by Google

By Dan Morrill on March 1, 2010

In great news for Seattle Startups, Picnik gets picked up by Google in some interesting M&A activity, because everyone is going to be thinking of Flickr and SmugMug being right in the sights of Google. Online photo editing and storage just hit an air pocket. Picnik was a clear winner in the Seattle 2.0 awards […]

OAuth Beginning to Rock the World

OAuth Beginning to Rock the World

By Ben Kepes on October 21, 2009

OAuth, or Open Authentication is “an open protocol to allow secure API authorization in a simple and standard method from desktop and web applications”. Basically it’s a way to allow one web application to utilize another without the need for users to worry about pesky authentication keys or the like. It also allows for data […]

Ma.Gnolia Data Loss, What Have We Learned?

Ma.gnolia , a social bookmarking service is down, lost all their user data and they don’t know if / when they can recover.  This is as bad as it can get for any Web 2.0 service (and more importantly for users), and the backlash against Cloud services has already started.   Krish will do has a
