  • Everyman on Transmedia and the Distributed Story, Where Freemium Begins, The Wiki Requirement

    Transmedia and the Distributed Story. Heroes Creator Tim Kring in a Fast Company article on using multiple platforms to tell a story. “Kring believes one-channel storytelling has become archaic. Shows should no longer be designed around a platform; instead, platforms ought to be designed around a show. ‘You have to take the concept and put it at the center of the paradigm,’ he says. ‘You have to say: This is an idea. Part of it can live on television, but part of it isn't designed to be a television...

  • Everyman on Death by Facebook, Pissed at the Wrong Guy, Limits are Good

    Death by Facebook. Jay Baer describes three ways Facebook is killing your website. This is definitely something affecting my business of building and customizing online communities, especially in this tough economy. Small businesses aren’t investing in their own community sites, they’re throwing up a Facebook page.  For free.  And why not, according to the article, Facebook changes information exchange from web pages to social objects permeating the web. You “like” me!  On operations...

  • Step-by-Step: DBVT.COM Services Area Goes Sueetie CMS

    DBVT.COM is running the latest Sueetie bits, and in the process I converted my Services area from using ScrewTurn Wiki to the new Sueetie CMS coming in Version 1.4.  Using ScrewTurn at DBVT.COM for only a few pages to describe my services was a waste of a great Wiki. And besides, we’ve got a sweet CMS now! You can see the Sueetie CMS-powered Services area at http://dbvt.com/services . Setting up my services pages with the Sueetie CMS is a good opportunity to walk through the process step-by...

  • Media Gallery as Document Management System : New Sueetie Expanded View

    It's probably the ALA-Accredited Librarian in me, but I’ve wanted to make Gallery Server Pro function more like a Document Management System for a long time. The new Sueetie Media Gallery Expanded View does just that.  Many of the backend DMS essentials are already built into Gallery Server Pro.  What the new Sueetie Media Gallery Expanded View does is add bibliographic properties to media objects and displays albums like descriptive document content folders rather than as thumbnails...

  • Everyman on Startup Failure Simply Stated, Insider as Fan, iPhone and its Surroundings

    Startup Failure Simply Stated. The question “Why do you think startups fail?” was posted on quora.com with three possible reasons. 1) No one needs the product, 2) Management unable to change direction, and 3) Resources poorly managed. The most voted on answer was “inability to acquire and retain a substantial number of users.” That pretty much nails it, but there were other good answers, including this one even more simple in its truth than not getting enough users. “The ONLY reason any company ever...

  • Finally Gave my Sueetie Wiki Some Good Luvin’

    I’m thankful for a lot of things that resulted from creating Sueetie. One of the things I’m thankful for is the opportunity to build a library of documents and “think wiki.” Having the opportunity to gain a proficiency with ScrewTurn Wiki in the process has been a double bonus. The Sueetie Wiki currently has 88 documents I wrote over the last year and a half, mostly technical documents with screenshots and code excerpts describing the intimacies of the Sueetie Community Framework. One thing I’ve...
