Going to Kyte.tv today

Uncategorized 1 Minute

So, the Facebook app shipped today is Kyte.tv and I’ll be over there with Channel 4 KRON today at 2 p.m.

Watch my Kyte.tv channel today at about 2 p.m. — we’ll be chatting and putting up photos and other stuff while there. I’ll also be filming an interview for ScobleShow. TechCrunch has the details on the new Facebook app and other Kyte stuff.

Speaking of ScobleShow, this week we’ve put up a few interesting videos. Here’s a selection:

First, you’ve probably heard of Sonos (Mike Arrington has one in his house) but you probably haven’t seen one demonstrated. So John MacFarlane, CEO of Sonos, comes over and demonstrates one for us and talks about its deal with Pandora.

Then, in a continuing series on Work 2.0 we get a look at ThinkFree’s latest online office service and talk with Jonathan Crow, director of marketing there.

The world of media mashups is growing rapidly and we get a look at MixerCast. Highlight video here. Demo and interview with the CEO is here.

Finally, something for the developers, a look at Apatar, which lets you move data around between Web services. We also have an interview with the CEO and Founder.

See ya this afternoon.

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.'

  3. I’m not very impressed. I hope they use that VCap and have a good party with it. I saw incarnations of this app 3-5 years ago with FMS and Red5.

    BTW, Here is some real tech news.
    I spoke to Duc, the guy who coded MySpace today via email. I have been speaking to him for a while now on and off via email since I opened our social networking site and he was one of the first people to join. He is profile #2 on MySpace.

    While I can’t discuss everything he told me, most of which is exciting. I can say that he is starting a new Adsense competitor called http://rubiconproject.com

    Our new mega site will probably be one of the first customers of the service shortly after it launches next month.

  11. I did a little digging and it would seem that decentral/kyte.tv sent a business plan here http://www.dfj.com/submit_plan/index.html 4 mos after going live, then Nokia jumped on when they saw there was backing.

    It also seems to be a private company with no ops to invest. I would have liked to put some money into it if they have the total lock on all Nokia phones. Then it doesn’t matter if the service is good or not.

    Seeing all this VC reminds me of the Satan cartoon from the last Scobleizer post. TigerDirect and cheap band can save you from VC. 🙂

  13. “I have a Nokia phone. There’s a ton of things on it. None of which I’m forced to use.”

    Nokia could put software on the phone to use the service directly from a 1 button function.

    Can you confirm on whether or not the company is public?
    I’m having a bad Google day. Sometimes they only go IPO as a bail out, so you never know.
