1. This video is ridiculous.
2. I’ve said it since it came out, this song is going to be huge in about 3 months.
3. I’m still mad at Diplo for stealing my headphone adapter when the cops came and busted up the after party to his show.
Forgot that this didn’t get posted here. But this Wired article mentions KWUR. I wonder if he was actually in the station. If so, that would have been interesting, because this band decided to get naked and play…

Noblesville would. Just another reason to not like the place.

So the original may or may not be one of my guilty pleasure songs.

Hilarious
Check it out, Surfer Blood has taken over the KWUR studio right now and are being DJs. Then at 530 (central time) Jookabox is going to be in the studio. Go listen 90.3FM for you in St. Louis or on the internet go to KWUR.COM
2. The Process Is The Story
Some of the case studies on offer were more interesting. Kodak, who sponsored the whole event and have put together a free guide to social media practise, talked about how they’d taken a product idea straight from Twitter – implementing specific suggestions, like flexible USB ports and mic jacks, and then crowdsourcing a name. This kind of thing is becoming more common – taking design and useability improvements straight from the user’s mouth online.
You might argue that they’d have got the insights and information anyway, but that’s not the point – the process here is the story. It’s like the three young filmmakers who got up to tell us about the crowd-funded film they’re making of a Jules Verne novel. You’re not buying a good film, or even the expectation of a good film. You’re buying the experience and warm feeling of participating in something crowd-y.
That’s not to say the film – or the camera or the Axe pick-up tips Twitter – won’t end up being good. It might be magnificent! But we’re still in talking-dog territory here, where the fact of socialness matters more than the outcome. This won’t last forever, of course. It probably won’t last out 2010.
Very well stated discussion of why crowd-sourcing is catching on. I personally think it won’t last too long. I think as the practice becomes more widespread, people will soon realize that their time is worth more then the benefits. It’s interesting when you’re one of the (relatively) few people doing it, but not as much when everyone is.
