Reboot 9: Stowe Boyd




Stowe Boyd calls himself a cross between a researcher and an impresario with a focus on social tools. His talk is going to be "Flow: A New Consciousness For A Web Of Traffic"

He and I talk about:


  • the agenda is changing - they allow us now to do different things

  • how he is the oldest teenager in the world

  • how the desire to work more in Europe succeeded - but differently than planned

  • his work with the open university project

  • how twitter and a cocktail party are superior to social network app - and I forgot to add he is looking for designers! :)

  • different speed of different social apps to get into the enterprise

  • how many people can you really stay connected with - it might be more than just 150

  • how tools like dopplr short circuit processes

  • the mentioned talk with Thomas Madsen-Mygdal on Blogtalkradio



Visit his profile on the reboot page or visit his blog.

His description about reboot is definitely one of my favorites:

everyone is very open, a great mix of having fun and being very very serious
this very playful, but on the other hand people really trying to dig into things
very practical but at the same time it got strong theoretical leanings
it's very aspirational while at the same time it's pragmatic and
trying to help people trying to do things which are very nuts and bolds
[..] it is kind of amazing that it can spread so far and do so much

About

female. european. geek.

About Nicole Simon I love working with people and help them get successful, especially through the use of social software. Though I have been on the net for over a decade and have consulted SMB for years, I also understand the corporate side, as I have worked in a major corporation for 15 years.

If you need a name for what I do, I usually call myself a European New Media Specialist with a special interest in blogging, podcasting and second life. I also love to 'testdrive' products / concepts which is best described as Technology Implementation Analyst.

You can read more about me on my Xing profile or contact me for more information.

When I do interviews (mainly pre conference podcasts I put them up here: Bloxpert so I can seperate blog / podcast talk a bit more from the stuff here.

Useful Sounds is my personal podcast, and I also have a German blog. Living in Lübeck, Germany, a European point of view comes with everything.



Why ctbk? Smooth-tongued responses are for the timid ones, and if there are no challenges, there is nothing to gain either. :)
