German beer, coffee and Apple secrets..

This is completely conjecture on my part but I do find it amusing that the alleged conversations that Steve Jobs and Eric Schmidt from Google had over coffee one morning on March 26th might just be about the next generation of iPhone.

The alleged quote overheard from the meeting from a bystander.

“They’re going to see it all eventually so who cares how they get it.”

Hmmm, yes this could be about early leaks about the iPad but I’m thinking not. How about the realization that they lost a prototype iPhone HD and 8 days later it became very clear that it was going to find its way into the public.

Seems to me that this might be an obvious conversation with a former board member of Apple, a significant shareholder, business partner and yes, competitor, Google.

The secretive veil of Apple has finally been pulled back… or has it?

PuSH with incremental updates

I am a bit curious to see how Google Buzz will handle incremental updates to my blog page. So I will be updating this story to see if it spawns new posts in Buzz or updates the previous post in Buzz.

UPDATE: Just finished connecting my blog here to my Buzz and my Google profile. Now let’s see what happens to this post.

UPDATE 2: Very cool. Buzz is picking up the updated post and it updates the original message. This could become very useful for live event coverage without having to update the comments constantly which is what I’ve noticed others doing, specifically during SXSW.

Pretty sure PuSH happens to be the facilitator of this function from my wordpress install.

Just added the new plugin for realtime update support from this blog. I haven’t been updating much but maybe this will get me off my butt and start writing again.

The new news…

Watched the opening session from CUNY today regarding the state of news and newspapers today and what the business opportunity might be for the future. It was an excellent presentation given by @jeffjarvis and crew.

I’ve included the prezi. Spend some time and check it out. There should also be an archive of the live video stream on livestream.com

I’ve been working a bit on some of the newer aspects of our business plan and finally got around to getting a few vertical apps done up… just thought I’d post an example. This is a “in work” prototype.. it could often be broken or just all together messed up.

I’ll keep everyone posted when its all finalized.
