SVW Vidcast: Chris Pirillo at Peet's - also Robert Scoble and Chris Heuer

Chris Heuer introduced me to Chris Pirillo, who was in town for his pre-wedding party thrown by Robert Scoble. We went to Peet's on Market Street and spoke about his new project to create a publishing platform. Robert Scoble and Chris Heuer join in. 

You might be thinking why another publishing platform? Well, I agree with Chris, we don't yet have a publishing platform that has been designed by publishers and Chris has been publishing online for many years.

"None of the publishing platforms, and that includes Wordpress and Drupal have all the features that I want as a publisher, there is a lot missing. Also, I need a better way to monetise my content and so what we are developing is in essence the type of tool that I need. It will all be open source so anyone can use it. We'll make money on the services side for businesses," said Chris Pirillo.
