As we noted earlier this week, we’re excited to announce a special track at Supernova 2009: Real Time Flow, co-hosted by BT. Join us for a cutting-edge exploration of the shift from a web of static pages to real time streams of interactions. Last year, our innovative Open Flow track considered the technologies and practices that allow information to move freely between users, websites, and organizations. In the months since then, many of the ideas that were radical then have gone mainstream. At Supernova 2009, we’ll address the next step: making… Read More
In this interview, Joseph Smarr, CTO of Plaxo, and a past Supernova speaker, discusses the way Web 2.0 is allowing interoperability between different sets of data and even completely disparate websites.
Key to some of the interconnections is not just the data layers and open APIs but the relationships the companies, engineers and users have between each other. As the Network Age progresses, it seems important to note that it is not just what you know that will make your company successful, but who you know and how you can cooperate for the benefit of your user and customer communities.
One of the people I’m personally looking forward to seeing on stage at Supernova is Peter Guber of Mandalay Entertainment. He recently spoke at the Web 2.0 Expo, and there’s a YouTube Excerpt of his take on the economics of the movie industry.
If you want to see the entire panel, the folks at Fora.TV have the Future of Content Distribution set up in chapters on their site.

Can we still have “privacy” in the Network Age? How do individuals, as well as services such as Craigslist, Facebook and Twitter, protect themselves and their information online?

Professor Eric Clemons is no stranger to online controversy. His recent posts on the popular TechCrunch blog have generated hundreds of angry comments when he talked about the failure of online advertising. He was even thrown into a “Steel Cage Death Match” debate on the future of online advertising with SearchEngineLand editor Danny Sullivan. But what Eric and I discussed is a further fleshing out of his March, 2009 post about a Theoretical (and fictional as far as we know) anti-trust case that could be brought against Google.
In our talk, Eric describes how a top provider of services, the mid 1980s American Airlines’ Sabre and United Airlines’ Apollo computerized reservations systems,… Read More

For this week’s Supernova Network Age briefing, we spoke with Google’s Bradley Horowitz about how business and personal productivity applications are changing in the Network Age. Why types of solutions lend themselves to being either highly networked, or delivered over the network? What types of organizations are embracing web-based applications for their critical infrastructure — and what are the points of resistance?
About Bradley Horowitz: Bradley oversees product management for Google Apps, including Gmail, Calendar, Google Talk, Google Voice, Google Docs, Blogger and Picasa. Before joining Google, Bradley led Yahoo’s advanced… Read More
My name is Adam Greenfield, and I currently work for Nokia in Helsinki, Finland, as head of design direction for service and user interface design. For the past ten years, I’ve worked in the field of user experience – which is to say, at the intersection between ordinary, everyday people, their perceptions, expectations and desires, and the information-technological artifacts that increasingly populate their lives.
At first, this meant discrete things like Web sites and mobile devices, but as early as 2001 I began to develop an interest in ubiquitous computing: what happens when information-processing power begins to evaporate from these discrete boxes we think of as “computers,” and instead takes up… Read More
Not surprisingly, employee morale and commitment has worsened during the recession — and in response to company actions to cope with the downturn. A recent survey finds that high-performing employees have been substantially more affected than the rank-and-file.

Members of the creative class do a wide variety of work in a wide variety of industries—from technology to entertainment, journalism to finance, high-end manufacturing to the arts. They do not consciously think of themselves as a class. Yet they share a… Read More
