Noticed this on a tweet from Chris. Nice review. It's being crossposted. :-)

Salut Loic,

Is anyone from the Czech Republic going to be there? I think the closest LeWeb oh-eight will come to this part of the world will be Mike Butcher, right? :-) I'd love to make an appearance...

Moreover, what are acceptable subjects for lunch conversation? Insider tips?

Loic, all I have to say is that I'm a subscriber to your email list and haven't been reading your posts as often as I should be!

Over the past 2 days, you've been quite inspirational so I've crossposted them to Facebook.

About a month back I went over all of my Twitter followings to delete the people I'd initially added as a means of gaining a follow-back -- only. This included a whole whack of twitterers with no profile photo or other discernible profile info, or, for example, tweets in languages I have no use for or understanding of (egs. Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Arabic, etc. -- though not French, Spanish, Czech, etc. -- those still come in handy!).

I dig the candidness of this post (as is your customary style), and I wanted to just tip my fedora your way in gratitude.

Re: IT.tv Episode 42: Worth Saving?

I tell you the truth, though, Vince, I sure as heck wouldn't want to get old 'n grey in one of these post-Communist emerging economies. While we've got some of the most competent medical professionals known to the globe, imagine the stress a prospective patient who isn't one of the so-called "elites" is often forced to contend with as they're subtly asked for a bribe on the part of these very same doctors! This hearkens back to the travails of one local colleague (who spent her exile years in Canada) who was nearly point-blank asked by her surgeon for a backhander. ::: I only wish I could video reply this one to you... ::: GREAT clip. You've got a natural knack for this.

Vince, there was a study done on this in the Czech newspapers about a year back -- and it was discovered that the locals here in Prague were prone to overtipping, while it was the visitors/tourists/and resident expats who were serial undertippers. There are theories why this is so -- but perhaps beyond the purview of my comment. In any event, powerful clip and I forgot to mention that I really dig the jingle!

Vince, Jean Feraca at Wisconsin Public Radio's HERE ON EARTH was similarly corrected -- it's Bei-JING as in "genie," not as in "Vladimir Zhironovsky." Great post, though. Tight. Have a read of Patrick Brown's recent "BUTTERFLY MIND," on the contradictions of China as you've expressed them.

Like Israelis, I think most Europeans had a big (schadenfreunde-esque) laugh at all the things that went on, over on the other side of the Pond.

Well said about Apple, though, hear, hear.

Eric Spillman and the whole Friday afternoon antics in L.A., as I've been saying all across the web, kind of make me glad that I'm living in Europe now, to be sure.

Sharp post. Ta.

KP,

This was very helpful -- I've got to pass this off to my business partner to have a look at, since we're in the market now for an upgrade as well...is the audio quality on the VideoMic as good as, say, the kind you'd get with M-Audio's MicroTrack II (http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/MicroTrac...) at 48Mhz, which is what I'll use for my audio-only interviews?

I'd love to know how the bottom edge remains so flush to the water surface -- is the bay always that placid?

Hi gang,

Social media should ideally be an internationally-popular medium in which to hold court...

Trouble I see is that in the English-speaking countries -- where the Web 1.0 basically came into its own -- there's a commonly-accepted means of interacting online.

What bothers me about the convergence of the Bloc and social media is this: if the emerging economies of the former Bloc are *already* leapfrogging over the traditional development curves (eg. uptake of mobile phones before full penetration of landlines is an "old" example), then why can't they also innovate when it comes to social media?

Why all of the rancor online at Czech websites or blogs when people don't agree with one another (it's on a par with a "national sport," we say here). Surely, innovating in social media should improve this?

Loved the "party" example, too. Apt.
