ThinkEquity Starts Web Log to Gather Ideas

By JENNY ANDERSON

Published: February 17, 2005

BLOGGING transformed political commentary, rattled the media business and inundated the Internet. Does it have a place on Wall Street? ThinkEquity Partners, a boutique investment bank in San Francisco, will find out as it introduces a Web log today. The firm, which specializes in technology, health care and other fast-growing fields, is seeking to make its investment research department - an albatross at most Wall Street firms - relevant.

So I don’t have much time to blog.

 

Luckily my dog Sam is a prolific blogger.

Wiki war born out of Walt Disney deal

By Matt Marshall

Mercury News

 

The battle between the two Silicon Valley wiki companies began in earnest this week. The outcome could say something about Silicon Valley's model of turbo-charged venture capital, and when it's a good time to take money and grow quickly -- or hold off.

 

A wiki, in its simplest form, is a single Web page that can be written upon, and edited, by multiple users at once. Companies are beginning to use wiki software to help their employees coordinate on team projects.

article: The Rise of a New News Network By Om Malik, January 04, 2005 Business 2.0

The traditional news media is going to need to reposition itself.  Yes, I’m a Luddite, but I couldn’t live without a daily fix of the NYTimes.  I also can’t see bloggers doing real in depth analysis or covering well events that span time e.g. global warming, invasive non-native plant threats to the environment, etc. 

 

It seems to me the Social Network Analysis (not the social networking websites, those are just implementations) could be invaluable in vetting the information that is created by individuals.  There has to be some kind of verification as anyone, anywhere can report anything.

The Rise of a New News Network
By Om Malik,  January 04, 2005

 

The 1990s proved to be the decade when cable news networks replaced network television as the primary source of breaking news for many Americans, just as the 1960s saw newspapers supplanted. In the new millennium, a broadband-enabled, always-on Internet threatens to usurp those cable news networks.
