14. OS conventions
1.OSes are meant to be a more or less
transparent foundational layer
2.They should make your life easier
3.They are customizable, but not
personalizable
4.They also organize your information

‣ Applications
‣ Search
‣ Recency

20. Determing Interestingness,
Popularity or Hotness
Nope. Nope. Yep.
Single gross measure. Single gross measure. Multivariate.
Causation? Correlation? Variable weighting is the
secret sauce.
21. Real-time versus hot
1.Users are going to complain either way.
2.Twitter made its decision
‣ They have left the door open, slightly for others that
want to pursue popularity
‣ Klout ain’t it
3.Blending the two remains unexplored

32. Do you know who has the best
interest graph information,
but isn’t using it for content?
58. The state of content today.
1.Most producers are narrowly focused on their
own content and narrowly approach their
traditional business problem of reach and
frequency
2.Those that aren’t don’t think broadly enough
about other’s content
3.No one has solved the “real-time versus
popular” conflict
4.Almost everyone lacks specificity, or
granularity.

65. The content OS business
opportunity
1.Taking a broad view of organizing content for
users solves a customer problem of
relevance.
2.The interest graph has one-to-two success
stories. There is room for plenty more.
3.The link economy and the social economy
are well-established, but unexploited for
delivering customer value.
4.Solve the OS problem for content.
66. People don’t
care about
publishers,
they care
about quality
and
specificity.
Solve this,
please @tyahma
