Ned's You Tube

by Richard McKinnon at 03:52PM (PDT) on April 12, 2007 | Permanent Link | Cosmos

Ned is 70. Conrad is 14. Yesterday they played chess for seven hours. Or so. Conrad taught Ned where a lot of the cool new chess sites are on the web. Ned and he fought epic duels. Ned also mentioned that he'd been using You Tube a lot recently. He'd discovered how "great" it was. Was now watching whole performances. Was watching chess matches. Conrad showed him You Tube videos of chess games. Grand masters explaining games.

Video is the killer app of all time. You Tube's brilliance is its breadth. It's become the central repository for everything on the web. It gets better by the day as people keep bringing new different stuff to it.

NBC and News want a walled garden of video on a site they set up to protect themselves. Instead they'll shut themselves off Ned surfing into something interesting of theirs, and staying. Which will be the ultimate winner? What model is better. Open or closed?

Perceptric Forum

According to Wikipedia a perceptron is a type of artificial neural network.

Ergo a “Perceptric” is a person who creates or uses a neural network.

The Perceptric Blog is where Chris Gilbey posts thoughts, ideas, and links intended to stimulate thought and accelerate the transfer of ideas.

Chris is available for consulting work with the premise that it is not technologies that are disruptive so much as the people that use them.

The Perceptric mission is to help companies and people reach their goals and exceed their expectations. This will often mean offering counterintuitive conclusions.

Our view? The shortest distance between two points is not necessarily a straight line. It's the number of people needed to be present in a human network to influence and deliver positive decision making.
