How I Created a Web 2.0 Buzzword

Friday, July 18th, 2008

 I interviewed Marc Perramond, Director of Product Management for Insideview.  Marc created the world Socialprise, which stands for social applications in the enterprise. Socialprise is one of the latest Web 2.0 buzzwords that has recently caught on.  In the period of 3 months, the word has gone from a couple results in Google to over 22,5000 results.  In this podcast, he explains how he came up with the word, how it became viral, and how he views the social enterprise market.

How Pando Got 1 Million Customers in 3 Months

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

This last month I had the opportunity of interviewing Yaron Samid, Vice President of Product Management for Pando. I found out about Pando from a colleague of mine, while I was looking for a solution that would let me email podcast recordings (which are usually very large files) to others. The two things that excited me about Pando were (1) Pando’s technology that allowed me to share large files with colleagues and (2) the company’s rapid success. In a period of less than three months of a public beta, Pando reached over 1 million installs. For a collaboration start-up this is very impressive.
