“I don't care about Palin's daughter. Teen pregnancies happen. I am concerned about if she could be Prez. McCain is 72 after all #rnc08”

McCain is in good health and his mom is 96 if that's any indication - David Ward

as long as you keep the baby and marry the daddy, go ahead have a baby at 17. It's no problem. This is pretty much what they are saying and that's fucked up - David Jacobs

I'm actually concerned with *McCain* as President. Though, admittedly, Palin scares me even more. The platform of *winning* the war, continued isolation from a foreign relations perspective and trickle down economics would do serious harm to this country IMO. That's not even touching the social and environmental issues. - AJ Kohn

David W., McCain's dad died at 71, which may cancel out mom's longevity. Who knows? He's had cancer multiple times, vertigo, enlarged prostate, high cholesterol, and on and on. Not sure he's "in good health." - Ayşe E.

You know if the tables were turned it would be a political issue and not just a family matter. - Larry Kless

“Does having a "chief community officer" make sense? Initially, yes, but community *engagement* needs to be responsibility of every employee”

Most firms don't need one yet (sadly), but some do and certainly CCO will become more commonplace in the next few years IMHO. - Dion Hinchcliffe

That's my big question - what is the "official" role of the officer over Social Strategy? CCO? Chief Social Officer? Chief Social Strategist? Chief Social Evangelist? I like the "community" idea. - Jesse Stay

Show 11 more comments

The social applications of today are great for letting employees loose, for collaboration and innovation. But it's still something to get used to. A CCO shouldn't come from a knowledge management background. The CCO needs to be a conversation instigator, and significant information filter for others. - Hutch Carpenter

"Chief Community Officer" sounds a bit over the top to me... is CCO > VP Mktg? nice to have "Community Evangelist" separate from traditional mktg, but at CXO/VP level, i think it's either Marketing or Customer Service. if you're saying that "Community" = both "Marketing + Customer Service", then maybe i understand. - dave mcclure

Dave, I think it depends on the company. My company, for instance, is building a Social Strategy, in addition to traditional communications channels. The Social strategy plays just as big a role as the traditional communication, and is key to the company's success. I would suggest a CXO position is warranted for that case. - Jesse Stay via twhirl

But, in the end, titles are mostly marketing terms anyway - if you think you need a "CCO" or similar position to properly market your company and share with the world what it does I think it's okay, personally. - Jesse Stay via twhirl

A key Chief Community Officer responsibility would be: Build and maintain the strongest possible community network effect. Unfortunately, I talk with Global 2000 companies all the time that are still wondering what this Internet thing is when they built their existing business fine without it. Even many so-called 2.0 firms are having trouble with community. It's a very different (and better) way to run your business. Some are succeeding however (SAP, XM, iRobot, and others) - Dion Hinchcliffe

This is part of the discussion of who "owns" community. It will be different for each company, but it's an interesting Q of whether community is integrated into all divisions/aspects of a company's operations, or if it should reside in a few departments who are responsible for driving it. A CCO elevates it, but also removes it from any single department -- which may could kill initiatives with no buy-in, or accelerate them because of C-level involvement. - Charlene Li

I originally read this from an internal community perspective, as in getting employees to use the new tools. But I can see the need for someone tasked to manage external communities. - Hutch Carpenter

I consider myself a catalyst & community gardener. I prepare the soil and remain responsable for the social system to grow healthy. I don´t work inside corporations. My work is mainly with people interested in the conscious evolution of social systems. This has many advantages as people are interested in creating new forms and empowering community, relationship as the center of wealth generation (where money is a small piece of this wealth). No owners just trustees. - Fernanda Ibarra

still - probably a good way to get going is to assign the gig to a c-level person at first? - Gerd Leonhard

As a program manager running several virtual teams to accomplish specific goals, I suppose I am a CCO. Time to change my business card :) - Jody C

We just discussed it and my title is now officially, "Chief Community Officer" :-) - Jesse Stay via twhirl

Jesse, that may mean that you have to sign for the FedEx and UPS packages and take the mail to the post office. :) - Ontario Emperor via fftogo

What I missed in the Chrome comic was a mention of browser add-ons like Firefox's. Surfing the web without Adblock Plus is hard to imagine. - Ole Begemann

or without the delicious add-ons... or the evernote add-on... but at least bookmarklets are (likely?) to still work. - Justin Long

The comic was aimed squarely at devs. There was little mention of what would make end users choose Chrome over IE. - Paul Grav

Best read so far, been waiting for a commentary like this... - Kevin Cearns

Gee, Ole... why wouldn't Google want you running AdBlock Plus? Can't imagine. ;) (Now, I agree, add-ons are cool, but as a publisher, I'm not going to weep over that one...) Anyway, I wouldn't count Firefox out. Obviously, what Google addresses is the performance/reliability side and building around apps. Both FF and Chrome are built around standards, both closely married to JavaScript for what they do next. I think this could be a great rivalry, frankly. - Peter Kirn via twhirl

They talk explicitly about plugins on pages 29-32 of the comic so you should be able to have your AdBlock. I seriously doubt Google cares that much about AdBlockers -- which makes up an extremely small percent of the overall market, and which is probably made up of people who don't click ads anyway. - Chris Messina

Chris: I suspect by plugins they mean Flash etc. and not Firefox-style extensions. But I hope I'm wrong. - Ole Begemann

But will it support 1Password on the Mac? - Khürt Williams via twhirl

Will they, wont they. Time will tell. Who do you want to hate today? - Steve Blamey

Interesting article. More choice = better for the users. But I think that you are over-hyping the death of Firefox. As far I can tell. Firefox 3.0 is much better than Firefox 2.0 and Firefox 3.1 will be better than Firefox 3.0. Multi-process, V8 and native Gears support are definitely a step forward but firefox is part of an ecosystem so I would not count them out (A lot of people said that Safari meant the death of firefox and firefox is doing much better today then back them). I look forward to revisiting this post in 18 months and see how the mozilla team/community proved you wrong! - Edwin Khodabakchian

Hmm, well, I didn't claim to foretell the death of Firefox at all. In fact, Firefox will likely continue to gain marketshare and attention (as the web is still expanding). One of my points is that Mozilla missed the opportunity to be the foundation of Chrome -- and will now have to play catch up -- instead of set the agenda for what's next. - Chris Messina

Do you think that was a technical decision or a control decision. From the last couple of interviews I have seen of John Lilly, I think that he has a really clear vision around performance, usability and ecosystem. Performance is coming in 3.1. Usability is driven by some of the concept Labs has been pushing out and ecosystem come from the fact that there are 100s of extensions to firefox and a really vibrant community around firefox. That is a very unique blend. Chrome has made some good progress around performance but there is not much innovation around usability and extensibility. Google has proven with Android acitivities and cross application data sharing that they are capable of innovating...but it will take before those things make it to Chrome so while firefox might have to play catch up in part of the architecture, Chrome will have to play catchup in others. - Edwin Khodabakchian

I am using chrome right now, and I really miss my shareaholic addon as well as my stumbleupon bar. hopefully the developers get crackin for plugins for this browser. - James Campbell

I'm hoping to see some good progress from Mozilla. I do worry a bit about them fish-tailing and not being able to say no to developers (whose needs are often very different from regular folks). We shall see. @James Campbell:There will be a need for web hooks, no doubt... and places to insert additions or modifications to your browser experience -- I don't really doubt that (some standardization there would be nice too). - Chris Messina

The photographer, Joe Pugliese, has a great website: http://www.joepug.com/ In fact it's so great I haven't got round to reading the Wired article yet - Adewale Oshineye

Enjoyable read except for this completely bizarre paragraph -- "Not long after that, Brin and Page came by to check in on the furtive beginnings of their browser. "I remember sitting at my desk, which at the time had a stuffed snake running along the back of it," says Pam Greene, an engineer on the team. "Sergey was bouncing on one of those exercise balls, watching Darin give a demo, and petting the snake." - Osi

"The snake, called Mr. Bigglesworth, seemed to purr softly in Sergey's lap, providing a calming influence during the demo. However, when one of the tabs crashed, taking the browser with it, Sergey's voice took a more strident turn. "I have gathered here before me the world's best developers," Sergey began, "and yet each of you has failed to kill Internet Explorer. That makes me angry. And when Sergey gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset, people die!" - Karim

Sergey then pressed a nearby console button that retracted Darin's chair into the floor below. A flash of flame could be seen as the screaming developer vanished from the conference room. - Karim

/likes Karim's comment - Philipp Lenssen

Somebody help me!" Darin pleads. "I'm alive, only very badly burned!" This proves to be very distracting, and after being interrupted several times, Sergey picks up his phone, and reports the situation to a henchman. "I'll go deal with it," he assures Sergey. "If someone opens the retrieval hatch, I can get out," Darin explains. At this point, the hatch opens. Darin is at first grateful, but then a gunshot is heard. - Geoff Longman

After a pause, Sergey is satisfied Darin is dead and attempts to continue explaining his plan, only be interrupted by Darin again, who says indignantly "you shot me! You shot me right in the arm! Why did you-". Darin sentence is cut short by a second gunshot, which proves to be the end for him, as the hatch is heard to close. (http://www.moviedeaths.com/aus...) - Geoff Longman

Google’s Chrome is aimed at Windows, not IE This is no longer about browser but about the an entire marketplace spread between desktop, mobile and web. With Chrome, Google’s taking a shot at Windows, not paltry Internet Explorer I’ve covered this in more detail on my blog http://sachendra.wordpress.com... - Sachendra

I review chrome...need alot of work. see details on my blog http://trustseo.com/blog/2008/... - CeoSeo

The point of Chrome is the same point one would make about the iPhone. Will iPhone outsell Nokia worlwide in total number of phones sold? Not a chance in hell! Has it changed the face of mobile phones forever...absolutely. This is where I think Chrome is a fantastic concept. By open sourcing D8 Google has literally empowered every other browser including Safari and Firefox to be Windows beaters. In actual fact IE may even implemented their own canibalised V8 to canibalise their Microsofts existing fat client business. If you ask me, Google is the master of judo in this case. google 2 MSFT 0 - John Kotsaftis via feedalizr

I haven't been able to find many details about the V8 design, but it's apparently a straight JIT (no interpreter) with inline caching of property accessors. I didn't see anything about HotSpot/TraceMonkey-style optimizing compilation, and it doesn't seem to use any intermediate language. (http://code.google.com/apis/v8...)

Nice to see Wired putting out a great article in a timely manner for a change - rather than spend page upon page talking about minor internet celebs and how they gatecrashed gawker media parties to build their fame. - Jonathan Beckett

Jim, tracemonkey should still be faster. Paul friendfeeded an article comparing them. I should say that tracemonkey will still be faster eventually, unless V8 adds hotspot-like tracing as well, in which case, my money would ride on V8, since Google probably has half of the hotspot team :) - Sanjeev Singh

Great article! I think a lot of people on the Web are now hip to the fact that OpenID can "transmit" their profile data to sites they are using for the first time. When I signed up to comment at RWW today, I used an OpenID but the site "tossed" my SREG data and made me type my homepage, name and e-mail address. Web site operators need to wake up, this technology is very easy to implement and your site visitors are tired of the short shrift. I know I am. Brian Hendrickson - Brian Hendrickson via FriendFeed MT Plugin

I'm optimistic that over time we can transition from SREG (which only supports the most basic of contact information) with the forthcoming Portable Contacts API (portablecontacts.net). Still, it's great to see Mixi get on the OpenID bandwagon -- especially given that it's a Japanese language site. - Chris Messina via FriendFeed MT Plugin
