I got how Digg could have avoided this in December last year...

Posted at 00:33 | | 3 Comments

I understood how Digg could have avoided a community revolt at my conference LeWeb3 last year, when I "forgot" to ask my community if they would agree that I invite the three main presidential candidates of France to the conference.
Very similar cases, that's the Web 2.0 lesson, if you put the user at the center, he remains in power, and that's probably good news.

Very good post Loic.
There is an interesting video showing how things developed in the Digg revolt:

That's actually a really good point, Loic. Most of the time you need to put people at the center, but sometimes not.

About

Welcome to my blog. Based in San Francisco, I am an entrepreneur and a blogger. I just started my fifth startup, Seesmic, a community driven video social software. Here is what TechCrunch says about it.

I am blogging every day a video on loic.tv about (almost) everything I do as I start Seesmic, I also constantly post short thoughts to twitter and often my pictures on Flickr.

I also organize every year in Paris the conference LeWeb3 that gathers more than a thousand bloggers and entrepreneurs from 40 countries on Dec 11 and 12.

If you would like to learn more, here is a bio, my LinkedIn profile, my wikipedia pages in english and french. Sometimes they are subject to changes that do not always reflect what I consider the truth but that is the principle.

You may also want to subscribe to my RSS feeds in English, French or my video podcast feed.
