Electronic Echoes part 2: coverage of iPhone Era story finds us from idiots to insightful

So we get the opinions. Some say "bonkers" or "idiot" or "rude" and "disrespectful" or "blaspheming" or an "iPhone pusher". Others say it is "interesting" or "provocative" while still others call it "great" and "insightful" and "high quality thoughts" and "not to be missed" and "best post this week"

Last Friday we blogged about the launch of the iPhone (Entering iPhone Era) and how we expect that to change not only mobile handset design, but perceptions around the internet going wireless, advertising discovering mobile, media and cellphones, the Silicon Valley IT industry waking up to wireless, and so forth. We compared it to the PC business and the launch of the Macintosh, and labeled it as a Before iPhone (BI) era and After iPhone (AI) Era. Over the weekend and through Monday the story was reported and spread in the blogosphere. The blogs and related comments make some fascinating reading.

10,000 here, another 10,000 at Gizmodo

On the metrics. We normally get a couple of hundred unique visitors per day, something like a thousand on a day with a good story. This BI Before iPhone and AI After iPhone story has already brought us over 10,000 visitors during the weekend (please random visitors observe, that we have no advertising on our blog, we don't aim just to drum up traffic for the sake of it). Some of those visitors arrived no doubt simply because the iPhone is getting to be that hot, that people will click on any fascinating new story with iPhone in it.

PLEEEEAAASSEE your tool must have a differentiation between except texts and body text. By writing a short sumamry of ten sentences in the excerpt is far much easier to keep track of your blog and far more rewarding to comment. Most of your articles are brilliant... but the blog is now 25 pages long... impossible to make it interactive (and create a community) in this way!

Hi Arjan

Good comment. I'm sure it can be done. I'm still stuck trying to add categories to the 1000 blog entries we've made over the past few years.

But yes, you're right. This is very tedious for the reader (and for us the blogger). We'll figure out how it works here and implement as soon as we can. Hang on, Arjan, this is only a hobby for Alan and me.... :-)

do you know where i can get the AT&T Partner Button for my website? (like amazon, ebay etc.?) Martin

[Tomi T Ahonen]

Hi Martin

Sorry I don't. I'd guess somewhere in the AT&T website, around their partnerships ?? I really don't know, we obviously are not, so this seems a bit of a strange question, but thats ok, we like strange questions. Sorry I can't answer this one.

Did you just get a new Android phone? Maybe a new HTC Incredible or Droid Evo? You've gotten the screens looking good, the font options just the way you want them...but now you need a few Android apps to make it even better? And free apps are always better than ones you have to pay for, right?

Heya! I realize this is somewhat off-topic but I needed to ask. Does running a well-established website such as yours require a lot of work? I'm brand new to blogging however I do write in my journal daily. I'd like to start a blog so I can easily share my personal experience and feelings online. Please let me know if you have any kind of ideas or tips for new aspiring blog owners. Thankyou!

Hmm it appears like your site ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I'm still new to the whole thing. Do you have any helpful hints for newbie blog writers? I'd definitely appreciate it.

As a barrier, it both prevents beneficial ingredients in skin and beauty products from penetrating and stimulating the cells, and toxins the skin is responsible for excreting from being able to escape. No matter what, your careful consideration to the matter at hand is one thing you and all of us have to do. Did you know that the average woman absorbs five pounds of toxic synthetic chemicals through their skin every year.

It also helps to minimize the amount of rest you get between each set. It is upsetting to realize that the weight lifting workout world is riddled with many muscle myths. I think that you understand by now that having a Ph balance of seven is quite important when you're training with the best workout routine to gain muscle.
