in The Dream: Universal SIM Card + Universal Address Book on LucaFiligheddu.com
The solution that is closer to my idea is the one recently launched by Funambol and Jajah, but it works in Italy only and it makes sense for italians calling abroad very often. What you say about the virtual IMSI is the right answer.

in Why Seesmic Failed on LucaFiligheddu.com
Well, I think behind each "want" there is a "need". I like the YouTube model but, agree, should be more mobile oriented to really make the difference. Anyway, happy to be here and wait for the good one :-)

Jim, can't agree more. Lots of services close down because they are ahead of their time. But, I still don't think video communication will take off in the next 10 years. There is a lack of need... it's something for a very little niche and it is not enough to be a critical mass.

Jim Goldstein LOL when has anything been about need on the Internet. I see most activity on the Internet about "want" vs. "need". If video on the iPhone is any sign I bet people become nearly as addicted to sharing short video clips as they do text messaging. Will it ever be the same in frequency of use... no, but there will be a bump in activity. Is video conversation the model that will take? Perhaps not bu I bet there will be need for a model where video can be shared, threaded and discussion oriented. Is that YouTube? I'm not convinced it is. The YouTube model doesn't seem as mobile focused. Perhaps that is the core of my observation mobile versus desktop.

Looks like GoJajah does this for SIM containing international phone numbers, but only if you stay in your own country.

@Dean of course when I say "the SIM", I mean the operator's HLR ;-) I don't think you can't ignore the operator owning the SIM, the rate to call the local number is set by tha SIM's owner, you can't avoid it unless you use native VoIP, something I would not recommend for various reasons

@Dean - I mean, the SIM must provide you with the lowest rate for a local call, regardless the country you are visiting. The address book provides the right local number for your contact, then the SIM does the rest (plus the service that connects the foreign number, of course, like Rebtel or something).

@dean the problem it is not the addressbook, but the SIM :-)

Stainless is not bad, but in the long term Chrome will definitely be a more reliable browser, IMHO.

Great so see you using the Thesis theme, best CMS for Wordpress.

Take a look at my blog for widgets and more. I don't like adding too much stuff, since it's the first way to slow down your blog. Anyway, it's up to you :-) Look at my social bar on top right. I also wrote a tutorial on how adding it to Thesis:

You can also think of adding Tweefind, my company's Twitter Search by user rank... take a look www.tweefind.com (the widget can be easily found on the left).

It's actually not that bad :-)
Have you tried Thesis? It's the best pro theme out there and you have impressive options and you can basically create whatever you want starting from that theme. It's rather a "framework" than a theme. Check it out if you haven't yet: http://tr.im/jC21

in Guest Post- Are You Anonymous at Work on Chris Brogan
Very good post Chris, as usual. What I noticed about the employees of my company, is that I love people who take initiatives and bring to my table new ideas, especially those focused on customer satisfaction / more business for my company. What I don't like? People who do strictly what they have to, no initiative, no new ideas, no space for imagination. The best ideas for new services to get new customers? From a core-technology engineer ;-)

in RSS shows its age in real-time web (SUP and XMPP to the rescue?) on Scobleizer
Robert, are you the "The six millions dollar man" ? I think you are, since I can't keep track of everything in real time and I bet most people out there think the same. It can be useful for people whose main job is writing news, not for "normal people". For me RSS is real time enough :-)

I'm familiar with this kind of problems. Visitors of an online store need to be reassured and to find the right answer at the right time, when they really need it. It's challenging for many stores, what most of them are missing is the so called "human touch". I wrote something two days ago:

in It’s Time for a Viable Business Model on LucaFiligheddu.com
Sergio, VC are mainly driven by a clear goal: making money. Think of this: they invest in 10 companies but they already know that they will get back, hopefully, 10 (not a great deal) to 100 (not bad) times the amount they invested by selling one or two of those companies. The other 8 shut down. So the market will tell them they have been wrong 8 times but one or two of the companies they investe in were worth the risk. And they will go on acting this way. It works.
