Ultimately ethical behavior is it's own reward. By opening up media to all, we know that anyone wanting to contorl the net would be trying to control everyone and everything. That seems unlikely.

Glad to see you are a fan of Dave Lakhani and Predictably Irrational. But Dave didn't write that book, his new book is Subliminal Persuasion.

Re: How To Send Audio Updates From Twitter

Audio rocks.. I've been using Utterz.com to do the same.

As a heavy twitter user, I'd add that many won't click and listen.. and if you have a profile that shows all external links, some will not follow you.

Audio best used when it's part of your twitter use. After all, you can't have a conversation without listening.

Thanks for the very useful post

companies will come and go, money will change hands, but the trend is the thing to watch.

Obvious that the technology is here to stay, no deaths from start up hyperbole, and good ideas get out regardless of the economy.

Millions of small businesses are doing things more efficiently due to the net, billions of consumers lives are better.

Great post, those pundits have myopia. You have it right
