Randi Zuckerberg’s Innovativity October 4, 2007

Posted by Ryan in : , , , , , , ; 1 comment so far

I don’t often watch the ScobleShow, but I saw they interviewed the first sister of Facebook, Randi Zuckerberg (and it was only 5 minutes, Scoble is notoriously long-winded). It was calld Face to Facebook with Randi, cute. Here’s the deal: She called herself innovative like 5 times. Never reffered to a team or what the people who use Facebook do as innovative, but herself.

If I ever call myself innovative, I want someone to come back to this post and call me out on it. I’m having trouble putting it into words, but I don’t want to tell other people what to think of me. Randi is clearly trying to associate herself with the word “innovative” in the minds of the people watching this interview. It’s likely that in 3 years, I won’t remember what she said except for that word, and now neither will you…

How did Randi earn the right to innovate as the Digital Media Producer at Facebook? She made some videos that are only funny to silicon valley geek types, but I’ve never really found them that funny.

I’m going to look into Randi some more over the next couple of weeks and see if I can find something cool about her - I’m sure that after her appearance on Scoble she’s all over the place. If not, maybe I’ll just interview her. Stay tuned.

Mr. A for Effort 3/27: 1938 Media March 27, 2007

Ryan Price with a Beard gives a shout out to Loren Feldman from 1938Media.com and a handful of people on my personal A-List. I also reveal my discovery of Likemind.us and therefore part of the inspiration to start my own group is thanks to Loren. How crazy is that?

I thought about using R*vv*r to post this video, but when you even post their URL in MySpace it comes out like … instead of what it should be, and I occasionally re-post to MySpace. For Orlando Scene TV it is worth the effort, but not for these.

For the uninitiated, here are the Alex and Gavin I name check in the video - they do cool stuff like Emurse and the pop-ification of Twitter. If you don’t know Josh Hallet yet, just go subscribe to his blog - don’t think twice. He put on the BlogOrlando UnConerence, which was a huge pot-stirring event here in town.

Loren and I also have another very obvious thing in common: “Media.com” — 1938Media.com, RyanPriceMedia.com, eh? Keep up the good work, man

The A-List Works Harder Than You Do March 23, 2007

This guy Loren from 1938 media - which to my knowledge is a meta-blogosphere videoblog endeavor, but different than Irina’s GETV - has put out another post that begs to be reblogged. The first exposure I had to these guys was when they had their Chinese correspondent say something about Jason Calacanis and Robert Scoble in Chinese - both of them reblogged it. A lot of blogs end up getting lots of traffic because they flame a band, film or company, but these guys get it by saying something nice and showing off that they are friends with the A-Listers.

Now, Loren has told us why the A-Listers got their A-List status, and he’s totally right:

I actually got linked on Valleywag once because I said something nice about Jason, and Nick Denton (or whomever) Technorati’d me. The 1938 effect is quite a bit different than the Valleywagg effect… Valleywag is writing about you, Loren wants you to write about him.
