The Seven Needs of Real-Time Curators →
“This is a guide for how we can build “info molecules” that have a lot more value than the atomic world we live in now. First, what are info atoms? A tweet is an atom. A photo on Flickr is an atom. A conversation item on Google Buzz is an atom. A Facebook status message is an atom. A YouTube video is an atom. Thousands of these atoms flow across our screens in tools like Seesmic, Google Reader, Tweetdeck, Tweetie, Simply Tweet, Twitroid, etc. A curator is an information chemist. He or she mixes atoms together in a way to build an info-molecule. Then adds value to that molecule.”

The Gong Show: Design at the Board Level →
Whether you’re a VC, independent board member, or member of senior management, one subject that’s particularly tricky to discuss at the Board level is interface design.
Some board members will say, “I don’t like X about the site’s design, and we should change it to Y.”
….
The danger of designing from the Board room is that you end up with a product that’s optimized for the Board members instead of your target audience. This is especially dangerous for products that are designed for mass-consumer appeal. Board feedback represents a tiny fraction of the population, and is fraught with sample bias in terms of socio-economic status.

Crazy LEGO town set up at the SXSWi Screenburn Arcade. The TV monitor you’ll see streams a live video feed from the front of the train. How awesome is that?
