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.

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.'

  7. Jean: of course! But it’s easier to talk about the iPod. Everyone gets what an iPod is and what it does.

    My cell phone has a gig of free space. I gotta find more stuff to put on it.

  9. “Gigs of free space” is not gonna win the day, just cause it’s there, doesn’t follow that it’s somehow automatically going to be filled — such is a quite common economic fallacy, aptly termed ‘Hallucinogenic Optimism’, as capacity potential doesn’t ever equal a market.

    Compelling quality content, that is somehow relevant to said individual — relevant enough to overcome the seriously difficult interia required to seek such media out…is the only hope (assuming there is any hope at all).

    A better answer to “why does one need a podcast?” would be…

    Because all sorts of interesting and detailed subjects, mainly focusing on specialized markets are wholly under-served by the current media infrastructure (or words to that effect, leaning less lawyerese).

    The media are generalists, find about said indiviual’s particular niche interests, and match some podcast/vlog to that, it’s really going to be case by case, as micro-broadcasting, but always will be.

  13. While I don’t think it’s ready for prime time, I like the new (and not much talked about) Pluggd site (http://www.pluggd.com/). It looks like it has a clean, easy-to-use interface that could attract users other than early-adopters. And that’s something podcasting needs to accomplish if it wants to get deeper acceptance.

  15. For anyone who uses ASP.NET then a great podcast called the ASP.NET Podacast (www.aspnetpodcast.com) is really great and humerous too oddly.

    Dunno how I came across it but its great…the only podcast I really download all the time.
