If you, like me, have not been able to attend the Web 2.0 Expo 2007, you can rely on the digital coverage to get a piece of the action. As usual, I have relied more on blogs, they are the closest to asking someone personally about it.
Here are some links:
- Functioning Form
- Read/Write Web
- Web 2.0 Expo 2007 at Wordpress.com
- Tweets
- Photos at Laughing Squid
- Photos at Flickr
- Videos at YouTube
I have not read/seen everything yet, that will probably take some more days. What has stuck in my mind, in whatever I have read till today, are some points that Luke Wroblewski has listed from Jeff Bezos’ conversation with Tim O’Reilly.
- When you start a new business, you want to go as fast as possible from idea to successful product.
- Between the idea and what you want is a lot of heavy lifting: server hosting managing bandwidth, moving facilities, contract negotiation, etc.
- Often you have to loop through that cycle. Those who cycle the loop the fastest are the winners. It’s a high price of admission.
- Base strategy on what will not change over the next 5-10 years.
Very crisp and reflective!
It is quite possible I have missed some links, do add to this.
