What is the theme I'm coming away with from Web 2.0 San Fran... Well let me quote a reinvented company chairman's thoughts... (CEO Viacom) - "We believe in fragmentation going forward on the Internet."
Yahoo: Flickr and such - The much cooler feature however is the new "Places Pages". As you might expect these are pages that focus on one particular area and pull all the image and tag information for pictures geotagged to that area.
TWITTER: Evan Williams ... co-founded Twitter ... He talked about how Twitter succeeded by taking away capabilities ... adding constraints can help your product ... we need to ask what can we take away to make something new ... because SMS was the primary platform, it made some difference. The interface is one field and a button. That gives it a "low cognitive load."Labels: google, microsoft, san francisco, web 2.0, yahoo |
