<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>É o título do site elaborado por  David Sifry, fundador do Technorati. A proposta é simples: determinado site é escolhido e os usuários podem dar a sua nota (1 a 10). Uma boa forma de avaliar os projetos digitais, não?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify"><a href="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/barger2007.gif" title="John Barger"></a>Here are the answers to the <a href="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/2007/11/13/ork-1-quiz/">ORK -1 Quiz</a> that was published on 13th of November.</p>
<p align="justify">1) The people in the picture from top left in clockwise direction are,</p>
<p align="justify">    (i) <strong>John Barger</strong> - He coined the term "WEBLOG". He also writes extensively on James Joyce and AI.</p>
<p><a href="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/barger2007.gif" title="John Barger"><img src="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/barger2007.gif" alt="John Barger" /></a></p>
<p align="justify">       (ii) <a href="	http://web.archive.org/web/19991013021124/peterme.com/index.html"><strong>Peter Merholz </strong></a>- He is credited with coining of the term BLOG. He may have unwittingly shortened the word WEBLOG to WE BLOG from which the word BLOG evolved.</p>
<p>       (iii) <strong>Evan Williams</strong> - One of the co-founders of Pyra Labs which created Blogger (Now owned by Google ofcourse.)</p>
<p><a href="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/blogger-3.jpg" title="Blogger"><img src="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/blogger-3.jpg" alt="Blogger" /></a></p>
<p>    (iv) <strong>Brad Fitzpatrick</strong> - He is the creator of LiveJournal. Currently works for Google. He is also considered one of the earliest bloggers.</p>
<p><a href="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/livejournal-logo.png" title="LiveJournal"><img src="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/livejournal-logo.png" alt="LiveJournal" /></a></p>
<p>    (v) <strong>Meg Hourihan</strong> - Co-founded Pyra Labs (Blogger) with Evan Williams.</p>
<p>    (vi) <strong>David Sifry</strong> - Founder of Technorati (A search Engine for blogs.)</p>
<p><a href="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/technorati-fav.png" title="Technorati"><img src="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/technorati-fav.png" alt="Technorati" /></a></p>
<p align="justify">                          The connect is the term "BLOG". Weblog and Blogging are equally acceptable.</p>
<p align="justify">2) The connect to all the terms mentioned is "<strong>WORDPRESS</strong>" (and not Jazz artistes as many people answered. Google did throw up Jazz artistes, even if not all of the names in the list. Who knows Wordpress guys may even have been inspired by the Jazz artistes.)</p>
<p align="justify">All the words in that list are code names of various versions of Wordpress.</p>
<p align="justify"><a href="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/wordpresslogo.jpg" title="WordPress"><img src="http://karthik3685.wordpress.com/files/2007/11/wordpresslogo.jpg" alt="WordPress" /></a></p>
<p align="justify">3) Kibo, (<strong>James Parry</strong>). His nickname is assumed to be the short form of King Body which he used as an undergraduate from RPI (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) . He has received amazing publicity including cover story of Wired magazine and mentions in Time and even Playboy :D</p>
<p align="justify">Scores:</p>
<p align="justify">&#160;</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p align="justify">Of the people who answered, many gave answers to the second question as Jazz Bands or Artistes.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p align="justify">Some people were even outright frustrated (disgusted ?) and gave answers like "all are same", "boren"</p>
</li>
<li>
<p align="justify">Vinod seemes to think the answer to 2nd question was "All are short" :) Nice one really.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p align="justify">Sundar was the only one who came close to answering a question. The 1st one. I can give him points for that i guess.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p align="justify">So the scores :</p>
<p align="justify">1) Anyone who bothered to answer through gchat, gmail, yahoo messenger : <strong>1 point</strong></p>
<p align="justify">simply because you took the trouble of answering.</p>
<p align="justify">2) Sundar: <strong>2 1/2 points</strong></p>
<p align="justify">because he's the only one who mailed me the answers and actually got one almost right.</p>
<p align="justify">* All scores on 5 ;) 1 point for attempting and 1 more for mailing me.</p>
<p align="justify">*No one gets the 1 rupee as no one got all three answers right. However if people feel that Sundar should be declared winner, then by majority consensus we could give him 1 Rupee I think :D</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;" class="MsoNormal"><img align="top" width="175" src="http://www.espacioblog.com/myfiles/ranganatha2/Sifry1.jpg" height="284" /></p>
<p align="justify" style="text-align:justify;" class="MsoNormal">El prestigioso diario ElPais de España <strong>entrevisto a David Sifry, fundador hace ya 5 años de Technorati</strong> el buscador de blogs más importante de Internet. Los puntos más salientes y las visiones de un entrepreneur a imitar se las dejo en el siguiente post…</p>
<p align="justify" style="text-align:justify;" class="MsoNormal"><!--more--><strong><u></u></strong></p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- <span></span>No existe posibilidad de desaceleración posible, por lo menos en el mediano plazo, en cuanto a ratios de crecimiento en la blogosfera.</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- Nuestros últimos datos nos dicen que se crean 120.000 nuevos blogs cada día, lo que representa que la blogosfera había doblado su tamaño de octubre de 2006 a abril de 2007 dice Sifry.</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- 120 Millones de blogs(cantidad de blogs actual) es un número muy pequeño si tenemos en cuenta la cantidad de ordenadores que hay en el mundo.</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- La tecnología accesible hara que los bloggers sean una muy fuerte amenaza para los diarios online. Hoy cualquier ordenador integra una cámara web o ya empieza a haber móviles que acceden a Internet, todas estas tecnologías van a estar en las manos de todos y esto puede cambiar la forma de comunicarnos.</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- Es imposible controlar la blogosfera, ya es demasiado tarde(relacionado a los controles que quiere imponer el gobierno Italiano sobre los bloggers)</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- Google no es una amenaza en lo más mínimo</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- Technorati tiene el doble de tamaño que Google en las búsquedas de blogs.</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- Technorati es 100% independiente y lo seguirá siendo por ahora.</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- Nuestro plan de negocio está yendo mucho mejor de lo que nunca pensamos y eso significa <span></span>que podemos prestar más tiempo a hacer felices a nuestros usuarios.</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- <span></span>En Technorati.com, <span></span>puedes encontrar resultados en español, en japonés o en chino.</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- <strong><u>Reglas para triunfar en la blogosfera: <span></span></u></strong>Escribe sobre algo que te guste, que te apasione. Pero eso sí, escribe bien, cuida tu forma de escribir. La tercer gran norma es enlaza mucho, enlaza a tus competidores, a los blogs que te gustan, a los que te critican, a algunos pequeños que sean desconocidos y puedas descubrírselos a tus lectores. Cuanto más enlaces, mejor. También es muy importante escribir mucho, de manera constante, para crear una audiencia que te siga.</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">- Con respecto a la publicidad dice: es un negocio cíclico, y habría que pensar que pasará con la próxima recesión cuando las empresas recorten todos sus presupuestos marketing y publicidad. Yo creo que es bueno empezar a pensar en diversificar.</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">&#160;</p>
<p style="margin-left:18pt;" class="MsoNormal">Interesante, no? Espero les haya servido</p>
