Re: Power User Infrastructure

Great stuff Albert--I'm really focused on the power users/super users as a growing class on the web. I think a lot of the "Education/Learning" startups are empowering these folks to discover, create and desire a new web we've never seen or built for.

Re: eBay vs Amazon: decentralized vs centralized e-commerce

This interesting and does stoke some similar comparisons to Apply vs. Android but I have to say:

Buying a device doesn't solve what most people go online to purchase goods for. Device sales have a lot of odd influences (like amazing design/social status etc) that online retailers will have a difficult time packaging and positioning.

No one says "did you see so-and-so shopping on e-bay last Sunday?" like they'd do with say, Barney's. Even as a user of the kindle (which I love) aws, and the most cult like thing they offer Prime (which I can't use out of the US) I do feel your perspective--at least from a marketplace comparison--does have a real leg to stand on.

This definitely puts their moves/logic/hires/acquisitions into perspective.

Re: Is There Anything I Didn’t Ask You That I Should Be Asking?

that's a great point that gets to the core of calls/meetings with people in general, position yourself and them in the highest value possible and structure the expectations/meeting around those points.

it may seem elementary but in creating that context a lot of BS is eliminated. it doesn't mean the call is more or less formal--which people confuse with value/respect--it just means it has the focus and direction needed to drive the conversation in a productive direction.

this is great and completely spot on tim. as more marketers try to value not just the supply chain and ROI, i've seen the move into valuing the brand. at the core of this valuation are their networks.

"In the tech sector, end demand makes the stock, not the other way around. This is something the value guys need to keep in mind when hunting for bargains in the large cap Nasdaq names."

hammer to nail--this is a whole post in and of itself.
