SVW in India ; A blog that Lark likes; SundayReader Web 0.5; SVW Pubby award nomination
SVW in India . . .
I'm excited to be heading out to India in late October with Vivek Ranadive, CEO of Tibco, the first SVW sponsor. Mr Ranadive is launching his book, "The Predictive Enterprise" in India and has a book tour that includes meetings with some of the country's top business leaders.
It will be my first visit to India which makes it doubly interesting.
(One of my favorite quotes comes from Vivek Ranadive: "India is the killer application for broadband.")
Is SundayReader too 0.5?

Hi Tom -
Love your site ......
A question: Is there any room on the net for a Retro Web 0.5 site like www.sundayreader.com ....
Let's ask SVW readers :-)
It's a bit barebones but that's a positive. I like the way it mashes up mainstream media and blog sites: it is all mediasphere. I would certainly click on a few things and explore.
Andy Lark likes Tesla Motors blog . . .
Andy Lark, the former comms chief at Sun Microsystems always has good insights into corporate blogging. I noticed that he really likes the Tesla blog (Tesla is the hot electric sports car).
SVW nomination for a Pubby award . . .
I'm proud to say that SVW has been nominated for a 2006 Pubby award celebrating excellence in media.
Also nominated in this section: the fun SFist, DaveyD.com, splendora.com, and travelblog.org.
I love the Pubby awards because the Bay Area membership of PR/comms professionals nominate and vote for the winners.
Most awards, such as the Webbies, require hopeful winners to nominate themselves, and pay an entry fee. It's a nice business when you tot up all the numbers...
