Taking Pogue beyond user-generated content
I was catching up on some blog reading last week, and this post by David Pogue -- one of my favorite tech writers on NYTimes.com -- caught my eye.
In his post, Pogue says many Web 2.0 and user-generated content capabilities are still waiting to be discovered. He spins a few ideas of his own, such as a site where people can report what sickness they're coming down with, and where they live, so other people can determine if germs are heading their way.
Interesting stuff, but there's much more to Web 2.0 than user-generated content. Read my response to Pogue's post for the full download. And don't forget to leave your comments for me here!

Mark (Cuban) my words
Let me introduce you to my blogging soul mate: Mark Cuban, the blogger behind Blog Maverick, and the only online guy who's as edgy as I am!
He just wrote a rant about companies' ongoing inability to 'get' social networking. I couldn't agree more, so I chimed in with my own analysis.
Read in tandem, these posts should give you enough curmudgeonly chit-chat to get you through the week. But if not, share your beef with me, and together, maybe we can get companies to realize the error of their Web 2.0 ways.

Commenting. That was easy.
Speak of the devil! Jim Hopkins read my mind today about establishing credibility. And as you can see in the comment section, I gave him a piece of it back.
It's a cool Web 2.0 world when a young entrepreneur can respond to points made by the former Staples CEO, become part of a conversation on USA Today, and perhaps even teach people something new.
I'm psyched ... are you?
