“Scoble says a bunch of startup websites suck. I'm so bored with web 2.0 these days, I don't even want to spend the time checking out those sites to see if he's right or not.”

so you're completely board of software in general? Tech? What aspect are you bored of? What do you like..what don't you like? - Zee at WeDoCreative

I never had it. - Robert Scoble

I think it's a pretty fair assessment. We've had a surge of innovation in the last year, which has been followed by a shed load of copy cats and mashups (your service + his service = my service) with a few gems here and there. Hopefully in time something cool will rise out of the "me too" brigade. - Slippy Lane

The only problem I see with web 2.0 is that it seem there's not many orginal ideas. I mean twitter comes on the scene and next we see 50 look alikes that don't seem unique enough. I believe there still is a vast area of ideas yet to be discovered but there are also a lot of compaines that will end up in the dead pool. - Colide81

The good news is that a lot of these companies on the list aren't very Web 2.0 ish... we're starting to see a new class of tech being trotted out, and a lot of it is post-Web2.0. I like where it's going. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

I think it's good the industry slows down a little bit and looks back to see how to get more people into this world. The early adopters are too far ahead of mainstream people. But, that aside, I'm getting tired of copies of everything. I'm hoping to see some really cool new things this week. - Robert Scoble

It's going to be a big week... - Zee at WeDoCreative

maybe I am alone in this but after digging into a couple of startups I am way more apt to side with Mark. The are refreshing, sure their sites could all be flashier but their -ideas- are sound. For my money, good design is cheap, good ideas are priceless. - Steve Spalding

What's wrong with you people? Web 2.0 is brilliant! Rumour has it they're bringing out a Web 2.0 film next year, followed by the Web 2.0 video game 6 months later. - James Robertson

Half of these companies, I thought, were not so much Web 2.0 or cutting edge, but transitional, bringing technologies to the enterprise. That's why they're willing to spend money on an event like this. And, Robert, I thought your post drifted from critiquing their sites to critiquing their products and business models. Not every one of those sites was awful, in my opinion. Btw, my hosting is down, but here's my synopsis of those sites http://www.google.com/notebook... - klecu

That was my issue with it, there are tons of awful models we rave about because their sexy, it has made it so when we see a useful ( albiet homely ) enterprise app we can't understand the value. - Steve Spalding

I doubt the web 2.0 film will make it to the cinemas, it will probably go straight to bittorrent. - John Cooper

@Robert Scoble: Yes you had it. I was a fan of you when you blogged about great stuff. - Svartling

I don't know why people - in this case you Svartling - can't just disagree instead of launching personal attacks. - Zee at WeDoCreative

I am sorry if this looks like an personal attack. I'm sorry Scoble. - Svartling

@Zee (top): iPhone Apps, OS X shareware, looking forward to CS4, like the intersection of entertainment and tech (Amazon streaming video). Bored with social networking web2.0 stuff and web apps that are far inferior to desktop software. If any of these Demo companies are cool, please, someone else write about them so I can read about it later. - Jason Kaneshiro

I think maybe the state of the US economy and our current political turmoil might be having an effect on innovation in "Web 2.0". We're all kind of focused more on the essentials than the "fluff" of which most websites are, as much as like to think they are life-changing amazing things. When things bounce back we'll see more innovation again. - Lindsay Donaghe

Lindsay!!! Happy Birthday!!! :D - Zee at WeDoCreative

hahah Zee, I think you commented on the wrong post! :) - Lindsay Donaghe

Jason, that's a shame because I think we're really at the early stages of the web app phenomenon. It's pretty early days...Your probably doing the right thing by stepping away for a while then. - Zee at WeDoCreative

Lindsay, no...I just didn't want to comment where everyone else was :) I wanted to make sure you were reading.... :) - Zee at WeDoCreative

We are actually at Web 1.7 alpha :-/ - Richard Walker

This is the slippery slope - started with everyone complaining about the I Am Rich app and saying that Apple should pull it. - felix

yeah I don't agree with this. I have a "cowbell" app that just lets you make a cowbell sound. I think it's cool. But based on "limited utility" it could get pulled - Jason Kaneshiro

you have a good point. the cowbell is okay, the fart isn't? what standards are they using here, other than "steve would be pissed?" - Chuq Von Rospach

I haven't watched any of the installments in this series, although I've heard great things about it. But I just checked out a DVD set of "the Up series" from the library which has 7 - 42 Ups in it. Very excited to check these out - seems like the ultimate reality TV show. - Jason Kaneshiro
