Marc Canter and Robert Scoble Yakking About Multimedia Conversations

Marc Canter is one of the truly inspired geniuses of new media. Like all geniuses, he has a spark of insanity. I love listening to the guy's ideas. So does my friend Robert Scoble. So when Marc and Robert started talking about blogging and multimedia, I had to eavesdrop...and add my two cents' worth.

So I started to post my comment here and then a light bulb went off. "I should post a comment in reply to Marc's reply to Robert's post on Robert's blog," the light bulb seemed to say (bulbs are hard to understand when their filaments overheat). So I did. So you can follow the link below, and then click on the Comments link and you can see what Marc said to Robert and what I said to both of them.

And I'd be very interested in your perspective on this kind of multi-blog, multi-user, shared-space blogging activity. Is it too scattered and confusing or does it add a depth you find tantalizing?

Oh, I missed Marc Canter's response to my railing on his ideas (it's in the comments). First, the fact that I missed it, shows a weakness with Radio's comment system (I believe that other systems, like the one used by Moveable Type allows the weblog author to get an email everytime a comment is posted. I'd really like that as well). Of course I hope Marc's ideas come to fruition. I'd love an environment that lets me share my life (not just my text) with others and I'm willing to pay for it.
