Tim O’Reilly 2008 Interview on Internet Operating System

image After reading the very good updated state of the internet operating system published by Tim O’Reilly yesterday I felt it was appropriate to share an older interview that I did with Tim.

Here is a podcast that I did with Tim O’Reilly back in June 2008 – this was part of a series that I did with Aggregate Knowledge and my friends Paul Martino and Chris Law are the founders.

Tim O’Reilly, a pioneer in web technology, discusses what it means for the Internet to be a platform. He proposes companies that value the user will be the real winners in the Web 2.0 and give sound advice on technologies and approaches that retailers and media companies should embark on to be successful in this new era of user-driven content.
