Media Summit 2008 held the Digital Hollywood conference in New York City from the 12th-13th of March, 2008. The conversations revolved around advertising and marketing on the Internet and mobile devices. Patrick Crane from LinkedIn, Matt Bostwick from MTV and Andy Plesser from Beet.tv were present and nice enough to allow interviews.

    The ending is great, I liked how beet.tv knew exactly who you were and no one else did.

    Great interview - very cutting edge. Your interview skills have become very polished and I look foreword to more of the same.
    Andy Plesser of Beet.tv was so excited to tell us about his media. This was such a huge contrast from your last show where you interviewed the young cutting edge gals where here you were interviewing the older men of a hip media.
    Great show!

    Great show. I kept checking all day for a new update; it would help to know what your schedule is.

    I wonder if the LinkedIn folks know that there are people who think that their product is Evil. (LinkedIn+Evil in Google = 207,000 pages)

    I wouldn’t go near it with a ten foot pole. My business contacts are gold to me; not a chance I am letting them out of my control - my competitors would LOVE to have access to them.

    Sarah, any hope for allowing people to edit their comments once they post? Hard to see typos in this tiny box, until you save, then it’s too late!

    Hi Chris,

    A schedule is hard when I am editing my own videos. Sometimes things go wrong with the edit and I have to spend more time on it. That’s what happened today. I should, however display my calender/TV Guide for the live shows as those need to be planned. I can’t allow comments to be edited after they are published with out doing it myself, but maybe I can see if I can get that programmed. I have a long list of things to update like the “Notify me of followup comments via email.” I’m finding a way for people to turn that off after turning it on.

    @wiremold, what do you mean huge contrast? What details could you indulge me with?

    [...] in New York City yesterday and interviewed some leading industry professionals for Pop17. You may watch the video I made at Pop17 where I not only have the video available in flash, but also in wmv, mov, m4v, and 3gp. If you are [...]

    It is so interesting to see older gentlemen involved in a younger person’s internet world. I think it is really cool that they are involved. Contrast this to the last video blog and your guests were so much younger.

    Sarah, good interview ….maybe next time don’t mix in the weird voice tones e.g. when you interviewed the spokesperson for LinkedIN, you butted in with a ‘No reallly’ when he said Bill Gates wasn’t opened to connections. You just sounded a little goofy that’s all. I got the same vibe from one of your first interviews what you said ‘Chocolateeeee Raiinnn’, again just made you seem goofy and not professional.

    Op, the “No, really?” was obviously a satirical riposte, and the constant flow of humor is one of the reasons I watch Sarah’s videos.

    However, when Lesley Stahl says, “Really?”, there is no humor. And she says it about a dozen times in any CBS interview she does. Can’t anyone stop her? Another thing Stahl and other so-called professionals do (which Sarah does not do) is repeat back what someone just said. Why do they do this? Why not just forge forward?

    @Bhob, if you read my blog post, linked here, you would know I don’t watch TV. I don’t even have one. I can only relate to people I know and journalists I look up to. Interviews are hard to do and not everyone is good at them.

    Yes, I’m trying to be goofy and professional at the same time.

    Your shows keep being more and more interesting everytime. Seams like you start to build a name out there. Good work!

  12. Sarah Meyers March 17th, 2008 at 2:15 pm

    Thanks!

    Ending is good
