Add Microsoft Live to your blog

This is pretty interesting. I was just doing my link blog (reading my feeds) when I saw this item come through the river of news on Google’s Reader.

Unfortunately it doesn’t work on WordPress.com. Sigh.

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.'

  1. Unforutnately most of the major blog sites make it difficult to add your own code in (including us @ spaces.live.com). But for those of you who hack together your own sites, blogs or use blogger, you should be able to just drop this code onto your sites.

    Robert – I’m surprise you haven’t provisioned your own domain and setup your own instance of wordpress by now 😉

  5. Robert,
    Nice find – Live Search is doing some cool (dare we say “innovative”?) stuff.

    But, and I know you don’t drink the kool-aid anymore, it’s not “Microsoft Live”. It’s Window’s Live, or Live Search. There’s never been a mention from Redmond, that I know of, of any product being called “Microsoft Live” (even though they have apparently bought adCenter keywords for it lol: http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q=Microsoft+Live&FORM=OPNSCH).

  7. It is in a sense their reactions to Google CO-OP

    But they went one better, by using AJAX in the spirit of Live Search 😀

    Good product and quite attractive in a minimalist way

  9. Damn, allways those stupid restrictions.
    Quote:”Note this feature is currently only officially supported for the US market.”
    I would have given it a test ride on my site, since it seems to be a neat search feature.
    @Robert:
    Well, it works on wordpress, if you are running it on you own webspace 🙂
    Wordpress is much more powerful that way.
    I know it has been said already, but i just had to comment on it .-)

    cheers

  12. Robert, it really is a lot like Google’s Co-op Search, which has a lot of extra tricks in it. I built a demo for you, ‘Search Scoble’s Brain’, using your Bloglines OPML file. You can see it as a widget at http://blog.snipperoo.com
    What this reinforces is that, however nice WordPress.com are to you, you really need to move away now. They don’t allow javascript, you are missing out on a huge development going on all around. Move to your own hosted copy of WordPress or to someone who is offering hosted Wordperss installs. Easy.

  14. Success in typepad! Brilliant addition to the blogging world. Alright maybe not brilliant but worthwhile. I followed the link in your blog, took the “advanced” trail and added the code to the “typelists” section and voila.

    Now, challenge someone to create an search bar that is intuitive enough to anticipate what I want and where to find it. Who knows, you may already have seen it.

  16. The reason why WP.com doesn’t allow external javascript is because it would be trivial to read login cookies.

    Someone could embed javascript on their blog and get the accounts for any wordpress.com user who visited it.

    I like to look at it this way: no javascript means I avoid all that blogger bling that piles up and makes your site look like crap.

  18. Robert,

    I have not done this for wordpress yet, but if they allow any script in their templates it should work there as well.

    Check out Google Web, Maps, Video, News, and Blog Search in the context of blogger and typepad blogs.

    http://ajaxsearch.blogspot.com
    http://ajaxsearch.typepad.com

    All of the custom search engine support is fully exposed and its trivial to change the templates slightly to use your own custom search engine instead of the tabs we have on this sample blog.

    For instance, here is a blogger who has built a “Lost” (yes, the tv show) Custom Search Engine thats hosted in his blog about Lost:

    http://searchlost.blogspot.com/

    A very popular search to include on blogs is the video bar solution:
    http://www.google.com/uds/solutions/videobar/index.html

    By providing search results as Javascript objects that contain the raw properties as well as an html node, we allow people to get very creative with the results. At its heard, the videobar is a simple video search (GvideoSearch). When the results arrive, instead of drawing thumbnail, title, pubDate, etc. It lays out the thumbnails in a bar and links the thumbnail to an action that plays the video anywhere on your page that you like. Very easy to use, and obviously very easy to customize, or start with our sample code and write your own.

  23. to the commentator @4, nops, it is not a reaction to google co-op. Live Macros were launched earlier. Google co-op might have been a reaction to it.
