Nice website, but not very “community” COME ON! November 26, 2007

Love ya, mean it.
Jim Morris of the Central Florida Arts & Cultural Alliance (they changed their name from Performing Arts Alliance) posted an article called “I get the change, but how are you different than United Arts?“. He then tries to describe it. I think I get it, but it’s hard to keep tabs…
Who works for UA? Who’s in charge of the Red Chair Project? How do I get Florida Creatives Happy Hour listed there? How can I blog for them?
Why isn’t there an official RCP blog, and why do Jim and Jessica have their blogs hosted on Google’s server instead of their own?
Where are the graphics for the Red Chair Project I can post an official link on my website? (see the Miro logo, for example) 
Where’s the iCal/gCal/RSS of upcoming events? Where are the comments on events? Why use a proprietary system? If you didn’t use a proprietary system, where are the dang comments and RSS feeds? GO OPEN SOURCE, guys, you’ll never regret it! EVER.
Give me a call 407-484-8528. If you don’t see this post, I’m sure I’ll see Jessica around town.
Edit: This is a re-post from May 21, as Mark Baratelli pointed out.
Why did I post this twice? I just haven’t seen a move towards anything like this in the last 5 months, and Jim and I haven’t really gotten in constant contact. They have this great opportunity in that they are at the center of public attention with this stuff. Me, as a lowly developer, can hardly make waves as big as United Arts and the Arts & Cultural Alliance.

OrlandoScene.TV and BloggingFringe.com Video on Revver June 20, 2007
Posted by Ryan in : Tech, Site News, Podcasts, Orlando, Video, Film, Trends, Fringe, Liberatr, Restaurants, Entrepreneurship, itunes, statistics, Revver, Contributors, OrlandoScene , 1 comment so farI’m posting this because there should be an 8th video in this widget by the time you see it. I wish this thing would show the videos in reverse order, and perhaps it will - the first video should be OrlandoScene.TV 03 Taste, the second Heart of Coal, etc.
I’ve learned through the very useful and very pretty Revver statistics that about 5% of people who see my video play it to the end, and of those about 8% click on the ad. I think 8.16% ain’t half bad at all - what I wonder is if the “views” includes people who see the player and don’t push play. I don’t think it does.
If you haven’t seen all 8 of these videos yet, they are more than worth watching. If you’re using a feedreader right now, I’m not sure if you can see the player because of JavaScript. You can find my videos on the web at Revver.
OrlandoScene.TV, BloggingFringe.com - that’s where these videos live.
Mr. A for Effort 3/27: 1938 Media March 27, 2007
Posted by Ryan in : Tech, Site News, Blogging, Podcasts, Orlando, Links, Quotes, Events, Video, Coffee, Reviews, Trends, MySpace, Web Sites, Mr. A for Effort, floridacreatives, podtech, Revver, Likemind.orl , 4 commentsRyan 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
