My Panel at Blogs with Balls 3

by Kyle on June 8, 2010

This past weekend, Don, Chris and I hosted a couple hundred of our closest friends from the worlds of sports marketing, media, business, technology, advertising and journalism worlds at Blogs with Balls 3, at the Captain Morgan Club at Wrigley Field.

I’ll be posting a detailed recap sometime soon, but because a few of you have asked, I thought I’d share the video of my panel: The Future of Sports Media: What Today’s Technology & Innovations Mean for Tomorrow’s Fan.

(Apologies for the less-than-HD quality, it was recorded straight from the camera to the web on Justin.tv — look mom, I’m broadcasting to the cloud!. Alas, while the technology was amazing, the bandwidth wasn’t.)

Unintended Consequences Review: A Few Months Into The Daily Bunch

14 April 2010

I’ve been actively distributing The Daily Bunch via email since November 2009 (technically longer than that, but in a very small closed beta). At its starting point, it was just a way to take what I was already doing (curating links using mostly Tumblr and Google Reader) and share it with the world. I was [...]

Inspired by various discussions at SXSW, as well as the roles that technology like Foursquare/Gowalla, Twitter, Nike+, Hulu, iTunes and all sorts of other things that didn’t exist a decade ago are playing in my life — and the digital information streams that each one generates — I’ve decided to start delving deeper into the [...]

Last week, my collaboration with Amber Music — the new ambermusic.com and accompanying Tumblr-powered blog — officially launched. I won’t bore you with too much project management minutia; like any project, it took a little longer than everyone had hoped and had its moments of frustrating communication difficulties.
