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.

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?

No question that it looks like beaten with the ugly stick — repeatedly.
Celebrity will help it off the ground.
What it does to cultivate that community, encourage useful content, and filter out the spam / crap / gaming, however, is an altogether different issue.
Welcome to Web2.0, Guy. Time to walk the walk. 😉

Guy Kawasaki is an amazing man and I value what he has to say.
Scoble, I’ve asked before on posts here why you don’t interview him for a video. He’s one of the most valuable people in the industry, and arguably the best speaker author for startups and marketing. His no BS, no bozos approach is refreshing, enlightening, and entertaining.

Yeah, but I don’t know that I would necessarily take to heart from someone who doesn’t at least get Twitter. You don’t have to like it, but there’s something to the application. The web aspect of it isn’t cool, but the text element really is. I could see the interest in younger people to have that sort of SMS interactivity. I liked it and I’m in my 30s. Far greater, though, is what it points to with regards to user connectivity and interaction. I think it’s one of many signs of what’s next.

Twitter is the latest “darling” with the geeks, and this, too, will pass.
Some other “killer” thingie will come out soon and people will forget all about Twitter.
People see stuff like Twitter and they think they’ve found some kind of panacea.
Guy Kawasaki sees and has seen it all. Men like him know the industry, the key players, and can more or less see where the industry is heading. I’ll take Guy’s thoughts over almost anyone elses.

I wish someone would do a study on the average age group on Twitter. I’m willing to bet it’s a largely older crowd.
The younger crowd is on Facebook, MySpace, Bebo, IM, and a variety of other platforms that provide much more utility than Twitter. IM, Facebook, and Bebo even include Twitter-like functionality. All these applications provide SMS functionality, infact IM services were first. The older generation is simply discovering ways to use tools that the younger generation has grasped for ages. How do you sell Twitter to a teen who’s been using IM et al their entire life?
And for the older generation, here’s a good test. When I got my parents on MSN, I sold them on the fact that we could chat back and forth in real time. If I were to ask my parents to join Facebook, I’d tell them they could network with past high school and work collegues. I’d probably have a hard time selling MySpace or Bebo. But, why would they want to join Twitter? So they broadcast their lives to the entire world? They would probably be more comfortable using Facebook to broadcast information to their closed group of friends and family. In my opinion, if an application can pass the ‘parent test’, there’s something amazingly powerful. Facebook was incredibly smart not to sell.
As for Truemors, it’s very strange that Kawasaki is involved. He’s usually very adamant, especially in his talks, about avoiding the latest social network wannabees.

I was quite surprised to find out that this was Guys new project. I don’t think it would have received a 50th of the press if guy wasn’t involved. I admit I haven’t taken a look at it, and don’t plan to. It might even be a raging success, but at least for a bit, Guy’s light is shining a little less brightly.

Now I have looked at the site, I am not sure how a WordPress blog, and a few plugins can be given a fanfare.
Plus features?
1. The pages are being updated with Ajax. I am not a programmer, but I doubt it would be too much work to get a theme adjusted to include Ajax and live updates.
2. Some time was spent on implementing additional methods of posting, but they might just send the posts to the posting email address, thus I doubt it was too hard to integrate.
I think it could have been done in such a way to be more “multimedia”, and at the same time require some kind of registration or authentication.

Truemors will be as smashingly successful as:
– Squidoo
– Bitpass (a-ha! another lemon Kawasaki bet on with a dark finish)
– Odeo
All had prominent people pushing them and while that helped pimp put some blogger juice and clubby backslapping at the end of the day a business model it did not make.

The difference between this site and something like squidoo or odeo is that it was basically free to develop, which also explains things like, why the updating isn’t ajax based. It was probably done on the cheap. Personally, I kinda like it. I probably won’t actually go to it, but it looks to me like the signal-to-noise ratio is already sorting itself out. Right now, the “greatest” links all seem to legitimate rumors/links.
Maybe it won’t ever be a digg, but if it only took a few thousand dollars to develop, it doesn’t need to be.
