Robert Scoble, former Microsoft geek blogger, used to troll around the Microsoft campus with a video camera making casual talking-heads vlogs showing what developers were doing, and for developers and Microsoft watchers, this put Channel 9 on the map big time. It also got him a job with PodTech (which is still the name, until Apple's lawyers get around to sending their silly letters), where he is now doing the same sort of thing for a wider audience. Sadly he ducked out of calling it Robert Scoble Show (RSS) as that was "too corny".
This week, ScobleShow kicked off with a flurry of posts, including four in a series of Photowalking with Thomas Hawk and an interview with pony-tailed blogger Jonathan Schwartz, CEO of Sun Microsystems.
In a ScobleShow post mortem on his blog, Scoble says: "I think my show is going to suck for the first two months. Why? I'm still playing around. Learning what works. Listening to people who are watching. And brainstorming. I see all the flaws in what I'm doing. Even if you all are too nice to point them out to me for now (thank you, that's much appreciated)."
You won't want to watch every show, but it's worth a look....
