DiscoveryBeat 2010 is just a day away. The conference at the Mission Bay conference center in San Francisco will have a single-minded focus on the problem of discovery, or finding the content that you want.
Like in the early days of the internet, finding what you want with the fewest steps possible is a problem that is only getting worse as more and more apps are piling into the Apple, Android and other app stores. The day of a million apps is not that far away. While Google and Yahoo solved the problem of sorting through millions of web sites, no one has figured out how to do the same in the age of apps, where cross-platform complexities and walled gardens stymie easy search solutions.
At DiscoveryBeat, we have assembled 36 experts (and a bunch of moderators) who can cover the breadth of the discovery ecosystem. If you check out our logo, you’ll see that the theme is akin to the discovery of a new world and how to navigate it. The problem of discovery exists inside apps. Brian Reynolds (left), chief game designer, can talk in his fireside chat about how you design an app from the inside out for easier discovery. The discussion will cover topics such as better user interfaces, accessible design, and moving designs to new platforms.
Sebastien DeHalleux (below right), co-founder of EA Playfish, will also have something to say about those topics in his fireside chat — but from the perspective of being inside a company with lots of well-known brands.
What does good design have to do with discovery? Our speaker Bing Gordon, a partner at Kleiner Perkins who will talk on our Investing in Discovery panel, says you can’t have discovery without engagement. If someone plays a game for two months instead of two days, they will be more engaged and share their game more widely. Gordon and his fellow panelists — Jennifer Scott Fonstad of DFJ, Savinay Berry of Granite Ventures, and Peter Relan of incubator YouWeb — will discuss what the opportunities are for investing in entrepreneurial startups and technologies in this new world. What investments make sense in this stage of of the ecosystem’s maturity?
That prompts the question: is anyone making money in discovery? Our Show Me the Money will focus on that question, with participants including Tapjoy’s Lee Linden, Flurry’s Peter Farago, Google-AdMob’s Aunkur Arya, and Mobclix’s Sunil Verma. The money must be there somewhere, right? Big brands are diving into the app markets. We’ll have a panel on that with Tim O’Brien of Disney-Tapulous, Travis Boatman of EA Mobile, James de Jesus of interactive agency AKQA, and Garrick Schmitt of agency Razorfish. And social discovery platforms are emerging. We’ll have a panel on that with Si Shen of PapayaMobile, Jason Citron of Aurora Feint, and Kabir Kasargod of Qualcomm’s Vive service.
We’ll have a lot of A lot of fresh thinking is going into discovery. Dave Smiddy, chief executive of Infrinity, is the winner of our Needle in the Haystack contest for the best new business ideas related to discovery. He’ll talk about creating a new kind of recommendation engine. William Mark, a vice president at research institute SRI, will also speak about how artificial intelligence can be applied to the problem of discovery. SRI spun out Siri, which built a cool AI-based discovery app and which was acquired by Apple.
Vijay Chattha will show that getting press for an app doesn’t have to be routine. Simon Khalaf (right) and Sean Galligan of Flurry will enlighten us on the topic of analytics and making money related to discovery. We’ll also have a lot of inspiring and instructive case studies from successful indie app makers, including Julian Farrior of BackFlip Studios (the maker of Paper Toss), Dave Castelnuovo of Bolt Creative (Pocket God), Doyon Kim of YD Online, Chris Williams of PlayFirst (Diner Dash), Justin Maples of Borken Thumb Apps (Zombie Duck Hunt) and Patrck Mork of GetJar, which runs an indie app store and which recently launched Angry Birds on Android.
One of the most successful new apps of the Twitter era has been Foursquare. We’ll hear how Foursquare — an app whose monetization is heavily related to how users discover new places — got discovered itself in a fireside chat with Holger Luedorf.
We’ll close the door with a discussion of the would-be app kingmakers and their tools. That panel will include Ben Keighran of Chomp, Alan Warms of Appolicious, Laura Fitton of oneforty (which discovers Twitter apps), and Chris DeVore of AppStoreHQ and iPhoneDevSDK.
We hope you’ll join us in the undiscovered country.
Getting content noticed is a challenge for everyone making apps. Join us at DiscoveryBeat 2010 and hear secrets from top industry executives about how to break through and profit in the new cross-platform app ecosystem. From metrics to monetization, we’ll take an in depth look at the best discovery strategies and why they’re working. See the full agenda here. The conference takes place on October 18 at the Mission Bay Conference Center in San Francisco.

What Internet activism looks like
Anil Dash hits one so far out of the park it attains orbit in this response to a silly Malcolm Gladwell column that decried Internet activism as incapable of achieving meaningful change. It's all must-read stuff, but here's the bit that made me want to stand up and salute:
Today, Dale Dougherty and the dozens of others who have led Maker Faire, and the culture of "making", are in front of a
movement of millions who are proactive about challenging the constrictions that law and corporations are trying to place on how they communicate, create and live. The lesson that simply making things is a radical political act has enormous precedence in political history; I learned it well as a child when my own family's conversation after a screening of Gandhi turned to the salt protests in India, which were first catalyzed in my family's home state of Orissa, and led to my great-grandfather walking alongside Gandhi and others in the salt marches to come. Today's American Tea Partiers see even the original "tea party" largely as a metaphor, but the salt marches were a declaration of self-determination as expressed through manufacturing that took the symbolism of the Boston Tea Party and made it part of everyday life.
To his last day, my great-grandfather wore khadi, the handspun clothing that didn't just represent independence from the British Raj in an abstract way, but made defiance of onerous British regulation as plain as the clothes on one's back. At Maker Faire this weekend, there were numerous examples of clothing that were made to defy laws about everything from spectrum to encryption law. It would have been only an afternoon's work to construct a t-shirt that broadcast CSS-descrambling code over unauthorized spectrum in defiance of the DMCA.
And if we put the making movement in the context of other social and political movements, it's had amazing success. In city after city, year after year, tens of thousands of people pay money to show up and learn about taking control of their media, learning, consumption and communications. In contrast to groups like the Tea Party, the crowd at Maker Faire is diverse, includes children and adults of all ages, and never finds itself in conflict with other groups based on identity or politics. More importantly, the jobs that many of us have in 2030 will be determined by young people who attended a Maker Faire, in industries that they've created. There is no other political movement in America today with a credible claim at creating the jobs of the future.

Social bookmarking sites are some of the most popular websites on the Internet. Because of this, social bookmarking sites are a great source of making money online. This article will cover some of the simplest methods for making money online using social bookmarking websites.
First of all it should be known that the amount of success, as with all make money online techniques, is directly proportional to the amount of time that you are willing to invest. Both building a strong social bookmarking profile, which is vital to getting the kind of traffic you want, as well as creating and submitting your content which you will monetize take a lot of time. If you are not willing to put forth a bit of effort you will never make a sizable income with this method.
Now the first thing that you need to do is create social bookmarking profiles, or sign up at social bookmarking websites. There are two approaches to this, sign up at 20-30 different social bookmarking sites and submit to all of these or sign up to 2-3 social bookmarking sites, make your profiles strong and submit on these. Both have their pros and cons; first of all having a powerful profile means that you will get many more votes, and thus views. Making a profile powerful at a social bookmarking website is time intensive, however, and not just at the start. You will need to continually submit new material (not just your stories but news from major websites, the more material the stronger you will become), vote, comment, and add friends. This is an ongoing project which limits you from time submitting to other social bookmarking sites and even from working on your own content. Making social bookmarking profiles at many different websites to submit your stories too has its benefits as well, however. You gain far more backlinks this way and rank well in Google. You still get a bit of social bookmarking traffic, just not as much. It is really a matter of preference here, both are great to get the traffic that you need.
Once you have picked out your social bookmarking promotion method all you have to do now is build your website for social bookmarking traffic. The thing to keep in mind here is that a classic sales page will not convert, and social bookmarking traffic does not tend to actually buy things that often. Because of this you will want to monetize your website in different ways, PPC or CPM (paid per impression) are all great as well as CPA (cost per action, where your user does not have to spend money). In addition, since each story is short lived and you want to be able to provide new ones often it is recommended that you use a blog.
Now that your site is up the next thing that you need to consider is the content. Not all content will interest people on social bookmarking sites, and thus, not all content will provide votes and traffic. Think about your target demographic here, these are teenagers or college aged kids. Most do not work. Most are very tech savvy. Niches that do well on social bookmarking sites involve humor, technology, entertainment and liberal politics. Build your blog around this to ensure maximum success.
Hopefully now you have learned how to make money online using social bookmarking sites. It takes a bit of effort but the traffic and earning potential is higher than anywhere else on the Internet.
