Waiting in line for iPhones is glorious
Robert Scoble via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogge on Sat, 05 Jul. 2008
I see that there are people already waiting in line for the Apple 3G iPhone. I’m an expert on waiting in line for Apple products. My son and I waited 30+ hours in line last year to buy the first iPhone (we were first in line at the Apple store in Palo Alto, CA, which is the one closest to Steve Jobs’ home). P readmore

Off of the tech entertainment train
Robert Scoble via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogge on Sat, 05 Jul. 2008
Today several people noted that I am no longer on Techmeme’s leader board. Funny, lately I’ve been reading TechMeme less and less and caring less and less about whether what I do appears there. It’s why I went to Washington DC. I knew the other geeks readmore

My Fourth of July Present to you: the geeky Congresswoman
Robert Scoble via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogge on Fri, 04 Jul. 2008
Get in a patriotic mood by listening to our conversation with Zoe Lofgren, the world’s geekiest politician (she’s a Congresswoman from Silicon Valley). This is part of our trip to Washington DC. “We’re boring,” she said, when I noted that Andrew Feinberg chastized me and other tech bloggers for not g readmore

Upcoming updates its event listing; leaves me wanting
Robert Scoble via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogge on Wed, 02 Jul. 2008
Upcoming.org just updated with a major redesign. I think it’s going to accelerate the movement of people to Facebook to keep track of their favorite events (a trend that’s been accelerating lately). It’s sad, too, because this is one of the places where early adopters actually are engaging with Yahoo. First of all, readmore

Adobe Flash gets a break in war against Silverlight
Robert Scoble via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogge on Tue, 01 Jul. 2008
Interesting, this is probably why I don’t try to do news reporting anymore. I was briefed a few days ago on the Adobe/Google news, but already it’s being discussed on hundreds of blogs. There is no longer much value in being first. So off I go today to hang out at HP’s Labs to get you some intimate looks into one of the wo readmore

Advertising in casual games
Robert Scoble via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogge on Sun, 29 Jun. 2008
One thing that came out of last week’s meetings with lots of elected officials is that their attention is on the advertising industry and that means our attention should be on it too. One interview in particular, with Representative Ed Markey (he’s the Chair of the Subcommittee on Telecommunications and the Internet), stood out in my mind. He got very passionate about how deeply ad readmore

The Internet is going to the dogs
Robert Scoble via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogge on Sun, 29 Jun. 2008
Dogster is one of those Web 2.0 businesses that isn’t Web 2.0. For instance, they are making money. I interviewed Dogster.com’s founder, Ted Rheingold, to find out why and to hear how he’ll expand his business. Hint, dogs are just the start. readmore

Our DC Trip in videos
Robert Scoble via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogge on Sat, 28 Jun. 2008
We shot most of the interviews on our two HD camcorders, but they are a lot harder to work, especially when we had to do five interviews in one day, like we did on Wednesday. We now have a new rule: no more than three interviews on any one day. Five almost killed us, especially since two of them weren’t in the same place so we needed to take taxis across town (and after doing all tha readmore
