BIO:
Scoble gives you a front-row seat on the future.
Literally. He had the first ride in the first Tesla. Siri was launched in his house. He's been the first to share all sorts of technologies and companies with you, from Flipboard to Pandora to Instagram.
Today he's focusing on mixed reality, AKA "next-generation augmented reality" which will include a new user interface for EVERYTHING in your life (IoT, Smart Cities, driverless cars, robots, drones, etc).
That's based on his view thanks to his past experience as futurist at Rackspace.
Best place to find Scoble? On his Facebook profile at https://www.facebook.com/RobertScoble
He has been a technology blogger since 2000, was one of five people who built Microsoft's Channel 9 video blog/community, worked at Fast Company Magazine running its TV efforts, and has been part of technology media businesses since 1993.

SPEAKER PITCH:
Apple and Facebook now have revealed their Augmented Reality strategies, which means your business needs one too. Rely on Robert Scoble, the world's top authority on AR, to bring to your conference what businesses should do next.
SPEECH ABSTRACT #1:
TITLE: The Fourth Transformation: What's next in mixed reality (AR and AI) and the future of technology?
Here's an example of this talk at Leade.rs in Paris in April, 2017: https://youtu.be/52_0JshgjXI
Why "the Fourth Transformation?"
Soon we will have phones and glasses that do full on augmented reality. Everything you look at will potentially be augmented. This world is coming in late 2017 with a new iPhone from Apple, amongst other products. Microsoft is betting everything on its HoloLens glasses that do mixed reality and the industry is spending many billions of dollars in R&D and funding new companies like Magic Leap.
This future will be the user interface for IoT, Smart Cities, autonomous cars, robots, drones, and your TV.
This is a big deal and Robert will take you through what mixed reality is and how it will change every business.
Learn more about Robert's speaking style and contact his agent at http://odemanagement.com/robert-scoble/Robert-Scoble.html
++++++++
SPEECH ABSTRACT #2:
"The Next Two Clicks of Moore's Law."
Over the next four years, or two clicks of Moore's Law, a ton about our technology world will change. Scoble will bring you the best from his travels visiting R&D labs, startups, and innovators around the world.
He views the world through his rose-colored-mixed-reality glasses, which will be the new user interface for self driving cars, Smart Cities, IoT, and many other things in our world.
He'll send you off with some lessons for companies both large and small.
++++++++
SPEECH ABSTRACT #3:
"Personalized Meaning: What is Augmented Reality For?"
As we enter a far more technological world where even cars drive themselves, I predict we'll see a blowback toward the analog, more authentic world.
What role does augmented reality play in both worlds?
Get Scoble's insight into where augmented reality is going, see tons of real-world demos, and understand what he means by 'personalized meaning.'

It’s very easy to discover new podcasts though. Just open up iTunes, click the Podcasts icon, and at the bottom of the (initially empty) list of subscribed podcasts there’s a link to the iTunes podcast directory. That’s how my parents discovered them, located some they enjoyed, and subscribed to them.

Robert,
Good to have you back this year at SXSW. Another great source of audio seems to have been coming from some of the great conferences. Once again Doug Kaye/ITC and now the CN is leading the way. We have also been posting ours as we go along. A lot of our content is out there now with more to come. I urge everyone to take a look if they are interested in any of our panels but didn’t get to attend. I always enjoy getting to listen to events that I wasn’t able to attend.

“So, why hasn’t podcasting taken off more yet? Easy! It’s hard to discover new ones (you gotta listen to them).”
It’s not just discovery. It’s that you can’t skim a podcast in the way you can a blog entry. I can’t spare more than about 30 mins a day to listen to podcasts etc. but in that time I could read hundreds of blogs.

I think that “podcast” is a bad name because it’s misleading. I’ve had to explain to multiple people that one does not need an iPod to listen to a podcast. Even I thought that one needed an iPod to listen to a podcast when I first heard the term. It’s one thing to have a “cool” name (not that I think that “podcast” is cool), but it’s another to have a misleading name.
80% of podcasts are listened to on the computers that download them rather than an mp3 player of any kind, let alone an iPod, accodring to http://news.digitaltrends.com/talkback109.html.
But I won’t lose sleep over being stuck with a misleading name. π But I’m through explaining that an iPod isn’t necessary for podcast consumption, I’ll let those that champion the “podcast” name enlighten everyone on that matter.
But Robert, I’ve seen some Microsoft literature or UI that referred to “blogcasting” rather than “podcasting” (I forget where I saw this). What’s up with that?

Ummm, the answers easy enough, Sherlock — lack of skimming, lack of talent, extreme niche, lack of worth, zero ROI…
Now where “podcasting” has caught on, and caught on bigtime, is merely mp3 sync, aka Rush Limbaugh and the videopodding aka Desp. Housewives, LOST, Battlestar Galactica and the like. A known commodity will always win out over some ego-fed geeks using gadgetry tech, thinking they have showbizy talent. Bad enough having to put up with the egos on the blogs, let alone listening to them yabber on for hours.
Just brand it, and let the artists take it over. How it always ends up working. But the geeks still think the medium is the message, always on the wrong end of the stick, seeking technical solutions to what is at core a talent issue. And as much as it takes off it’s STILL narrowcasting, and braodcasting is always and eternally will be the big fish.

Jeff, Dave Winer invented “Edit this Page.” He was on the SOAP committee. Invented XML-RPC. Popularized RSS, if not invented a lot of its core concepts. Invented OPML. Fathered blogging and popularized that. And just today he released a new OPML tool and news aggregator. Oh, and he also was involved in the first podcasts and came up with the core technology behind it.
What have you done? Sounds like you’re the one who just talks.

As far as the word ‘podcasting’, nothing to see here. The name is stuck. Use it…..or not. All you have is choice. As podcasters, it is an unwritten law to educate your current, and potential listeners. All I say is it is like radio, but better. It is citizens media, which has been adopted by everybody else. The iPod stigma will pass, but only if we allow it.

I would highly recommend Dave Slusher’s Amigofish (http://www.amigofish.com).
It is a recomendation engine for podcasts. You can use it without any registration or uploads, or you can upload an OPML file of the podcasts you listen to and it will recommend other podcasts you would probably enjoy.
It is how I discovered a number of my current favorit podcasts.
I’m an outlier – I no longer listen to the radio (after listening to the radio every day since I was 7, I’m nearly 32). I grew up without a TV and when I moved to the bay area in January, my tv stayed behind in Chicago. I’ve never been one to buy a lot of CD’s (or download a lot of music). So other than reading (or viewing videos) online, my primary media consumption IS podcasts.
I listen to a mix of music and news/talk podcasts, with a few hard to categorize ones. A quick list (of names, don’t have the urls handy):
“Must listen” podcasts – the ones I listen to any day they are published:
– Cubscast – for my twice weekly update on the Chicago Cubs by fans for fans, a really fantastic example of the best of the medium – light use of music, great discussion and summary of the past set of games, and interesting interviews, rarely more than 20 minutes
– Digital Flotsam – amazing mix of storytelling and music, produced all to rarely, but worth listening to
– Down in the Flood – better than 99% of ALL media – “professional” radio, “professional/public tv” etc. This is a ~40 min exploration of the orgins of American Roots Music – always engaging and amazingly well done, one of the few podcasts I do not delete after listening to, but instead save and treasure
– Adam Curry’s Daily Sourcecode – I’ve been a listener since nearly the very beginning and still enjoy it
– The Pacific Coast Hellway – relatively short mix of rants, comedy sketches and great music, produced five times a week – foul and profane, impossible to do on mainstream radio yet laugh outloud funny and intelligent at the same time
– Escape Pod (Robert – btw – this is likely one that you and Patrick would both really enjoy) – audio readings of some of the best of science fiction. A paid market for sf short stories they have done over 50 episodes and all are worth reading, they also publish a feed of just those stories that are not-explicit for their large audiance of families (all of the stories are good and always well read and produced)
– Accident Hash – great mix of independant music, produced in Boston
– Digital Noice – another great mix of independant music from Detroit so with a slightly different perspective
– Karin’s Themed Podcast – truly incrediable podcast out of the Netherlands of a set of songs all around a given theme. Karin mixes in music from all genres and times (so not “podsafe”) creating a hour+ of solid music to listen to, one of my favorite podcasts for background listening while I work
– IT Conversations – I subscribe to the “full” feed and listen to those shows that interest me (full disclosure, my conference – MeshForum – is distributed online via IT Conversations, watch for my interview with Robert and Shel later this summer!)
– Podtech news – again I subscribe to their full feed but generally skip through some of their episodes, but enjoy most of them for a different take on the tech industry, a more enterprise centric perspective.
And I have about 20 other podcasts that I subscribe to that are published less often, though many of them are ones I also listen to immediately when they are published.
So there are a lot of great ones out there – but yes, there are 1000’s of not so great ones as well (but that’s the appeal for me, all of these content producers are exploring and dicovering what works for them and their audiance – and the beauty is that it is a “niche” medium. So I listen to podcasts in the many niche’s that I belong to – Cub’s fan, sf reader, geek etc.

Hello, When searching for podcasts, one doesn’t simply sit down and begin a quest to locate them. That action falls outside of the human experience. Mostly, a person would be introduced to podcast episodes from referrals or by asking a close friend – that is how we work as humans, and no new technology is going to make out actions change.
Also, I just wanted to submit an information update regarding the MyChingo Audio Comment System.
A new FREE Membership is now available!
The free audio comment system has all the same features as a paid membership, with a reduced recording time of 2-minutes per message instead of the 30-minutes which paid members receive.

Also, I just wanted to submit an information update regarding the MyChingo Audio Comment System.
A new FREE Membership is now available!
The free audio comment system has all the same features as a paid membership, with a reduced recording time of 2-minutes per message instead of the 30-minutes which paid members receive.
Sign up for your free MyChingo Audio Comment System by visiting http://www.mychingo.com/signup.asp

“It’s hard to discover new ones.”
Why is it more fun to wander through YouTube? Maybe when podcasting shifts from 90% audio to audio+video, then you’ll get more adoption. But will it still be called podcasting?

From my own personal observances — and I do Internet marketing, seo for a living — I LIVE on the Internet — I think that the greatest market segment that podcasting can appeal to simply hasn’t picked up on it yet. I’d wonder what high percentage of people online really even know what RSS is yet.
