What the hell is cluetrain anyways

April 7, 2005

So many posts, in so many days. I talk more to this blog than to people, that's a little problematic I guess.

I am feeling pretty anti-school these days, and so is the province of Quebec

So this article, picked up from geeked.org, is timely.

Thinking about Cluetrain and Education

It's alot of these sort of one-sentence manifesto type things that I don't really like to read but some of them are bang-on about how schools and education in general is failing students.

Okay I have just had a beer and half and now I have to go give my first power-point presentation, well my first power-point where i actually managed to make the power-points. Thanks to Hueyni.

But You *are* talking to people when you talk on your blog. It just so happens that a host of Google bots are also listening in. ;)

Here's the original Cluetrain:

You can read the whole thing online, or just look at the 95 theses for a summary... basically it's about how markets are (increasingly) conversations and deals with the implications of all this new media and social software that's letting people actually (gasp) talk to each other without needing to have to have a few million bucks to take out an ad spot somewhere to get a message heard. Good stuff.

Blogs = good. :)

Hey!

Long time no see 'round these parts. If blogs are conversations are trackbacks the equivalent to pulling someones dredlock to get them to turn around ;)?

Yeah I am so over the e-marketing books (or websites) for at least the entire summer

I do want to buy a digital camera though, and I know you are an enthusiast, what do you recommend?
