After Bill (ActiveWin.com Headlines)

Fri, 27 Jun 2008 14:09:20 GMT

“DOES Microsoft still have a big, hairy audacious goal'” Not everybody would presume to ask Bill Gates a question like that. But Mr Gates was this week due to remove himself from the firm’s day-to-day business, to become its non-executive chairman, and Tim O’Reilly, a noted internet guru, felt emboldened to commit lèse majesté. Putting “a computer on every desk and in every home” had been the...

Riffing primarily on a talk by Tim O’Reilly from earlier this year, Tucker visits interesting notions such as "the book as souvenir."

Comments Can Be Blog Posts (Voices - All Things Digital)

Mon, 16 Jun 2008 07:03:17 GMT

Yesterday evening I took a quick look at techmeme and saw that the top two posts at that point in time were Tim O'Reilly and my responses to Mike Arrington's Yahoo post. I clicked through to see Tim's post and noticed that Tim had done the same thing that I had done; simply cut and paste the comment I had left on Arrington's post onto my blog.

Create more value than you capture (SEOCentro - SEO News)

Sun, 15 Jun 2008 09:56:01 GMT

Tim O'Reilly thinks the web is much bigger than search, and actually likes the Yahoo! deal. I think it is easy to overlook how Google is quietly winning marketshare in many non-search markets - and how they can easily build such positions using their brand recognition & distributed ad system. A throw away quote from Tim's post is the title of this post: At O'Reilly, we always say "Create...

In a New York Times Op-Ed last December, Tim O’Reilly fantasized: Imagine, for a moment, that Verizon were to think like Google or Amazon.

Outsourcing Search (South Sea Republic)

Sun, 01 Jun 2008 11:47:25 GMT

by cam Tim O'Reilly ; "Fighting over search is a bit like the Free Software Foundation re-implementing cat, ls, sort, and all the other Unix utilities that were already available in the Berkeley distributions of Unix." From the article; Here is a business [Yahoo] that has beaten Google in area after area, that is unquestionably the #1 media company on the net, and yet has let itself be defined...

LiveMesh and FeedSync: software “above the level of a single device” (Planet Intertwingly)

Fri, 30 May 2008 14:54:16 GMT

When David Stutz left Microsoft, he wrote a parting essay that invoked a new kind of Internet-oriented operating system characterized by “software that runs above the level of a single device.” Tim O’Reilly echoed that phrase here, and often used it to help explain what he meant by Web 2.0. The recently-announced LiveMesh is a nice [...]

Tue, 27 May 2008 17:39:25 GMT

"So let's assume that Google has won at search, or close enough to make no difference. Is Microsoft better off trying to reimplement cat and ls [old UNIX utilities], or trying to figure out what's still missing from the Internet Operating System? While they are locked in penis envy, all the really cute girls are going out with startups." -Tim O'Reilly, arguing Microsoft's search obsession has...

Tim O'Reilly gives the following advice about Search... So, my advice to Yahoo!: continue with your plan to outsource search to Google, just like you did before 2002, and plow those increased profits and reduced costs into your own innovation, strengthening the areas where you are #1, exploring new ideas that will make YOUR users insanely happy, and generally focusing on what makes Yahoo! great,...
