Podcast: The Great Twitter Debate “Bad Ass Berkowitz” vs “OMG Owyang”

Categories: MicroMedia, PodcastsPosted on October 24th, 2007

I had the absolute pleasure to be involved in a geek fight with the always thoughtful David Berkowitz, a friend and respected peer of mine in the industry. Paul Dunay was the referee, and thoughtfully lead the conversation forward. I love Davids opening remarks about funding the Scoble’s kid.

The debate started on the blogosphere, where David questions the value of micromedia. So listen in to the two different sides over Twitter over at the Marketing Profs site or use the player below.

David and I are actually buds, here’s some pics of us on panels, hanging at PodTech, and hitting the town in the back of a limo in Vegas!

Loved the debate. I have a take on Twitter as a modern day greek marketplace. Tell me what you think.

Thanks for all this, Jeremiah! I know I’m slow for my own blog posting but I’ll give the delayed reaction soon. The memory lane’s great… gotta love the value of tagging.

[...] What’s another way to get snackbytes from me, you can find me on Twitter (I’ll add you back), which has become a chat room, and I often link out to what I’m reading in near-real time with commentary. Don’t like Twitter? you may side with David, who I just had this podcast debate with. [...]
