Gillmor Gang returns
It is with great pleasure that we all reassembled earlier today to relaunch The Gillmor Gang in its new home on the TechCrunch Network. Ever since Mike Arrington came over with Keith Teare at a Gnomedex (which one I don’t remember clearly but then again…) and introduced himself, I’ve watched him grow a passion in blogging into a media empire. Even though we haven’t spent a lot of time together in recent days – who has except Charlie Rose – I have always sensed the same kind of feeling for what he does that I’ve felt in the Gang.
Today brought together some great folks in celebration: Doug Kaye, who produced the original version of the show on his IT Conversations network; Dan Bricklin, co-inventor of the spreadsheet and the last guest on that first iteration; author Nick Carr, who quit the latest version (The Gang) in a fit of what he calls “permanent pique,” and the regulars, thankfully including Doc Searls who’s recovering from a serious blood clot in the lung; Hugh MacLeod who’s recovering from premature deletion in the Twittersphere; CNET News.com czar Dan Farber; Ziff Davis Enterprise czar Mike Vizard; media analyst Sam Whitmore; enterprise analyst Dana Gardner; everyone’s Friend Robert Scoble at $2.50 a minute over the Atlantic, and Jason Calacanis, about whom nothing can be said that’s an exaggeration.
The Gillmor Gang came about as a result of a series of phone calls I had (and continue to have somewhat less frequently) with Jon Udell, where I kept wishing we could share what we were talking about with the rest of the community interested in these momentous applications of technology to extend ourselves in the virtual world. Like all conversations, there’s insight, anger, humor, boredom (Arrington bails at the 44 minute mark today), and above all else a sense that we’re dropping breadcrumbs for others to pick up and carry forward.
The sound may suck, the egos may clash, the length… whatever. So far we keep coming back for more, and I’m grateful not just to Mike and TechCrunch CEO Heather Harde for making this alliance possible but every Gang member at both ends of the conversation. One thing I am retiring on this new show: … “if there is a next time.” There will always be a next time if we have anything to say about it.

[...] Jason Calacanis announced the news early, and Hugh Macleod made a cartoon to celebrate the moment. We were going to announce this on today’s show, but at about the 45 minute mark, when the conversation turned to vendor sports, I bailed out. Instead, Steve writes his thoughts about the announcement here. [...]

Congratulations, Steve.

I can usually recall where I first heard of a podcast and how I started listening to them. But I cannot recall of when I first heard of the Gillmor Gang but I remember the first episode I heard hearing “this guy” profess that “Office is Dead”. I want to say this was around the time Google Docs was launched but it sounds like Steve has been saying that for years. I was hooked ever since.
Missed the show while it was gone, but glad to have it back and have even talked on a few NewsGang casts. Good times.

[...] このニュースについては先にJason Calacanisの方から発表があったほか、この記念すべき瞬間を祝してHugh Macleodがこんなイラストも描いてくれた。こちらは本日の番組で発表するつもりだったが、話題がベンダー・スポーツに変わった45分のところで私は解放してもらった。代わりにSteveが発表の感想をここに書いてるよ。 [...]

I like podcasts but usually can’t find the time to listen to them regularly, now I have to find at least 50 minutes to not miss what will be discussed in the Gillmor Gang. Sometimes I may not agree with The Gang opinions but they definitely make you consider different point of views, which is the definitive value of the show. I recall that when I first heard the Gillmor Gang, was the first time I started to understand the value of podcasts. Congratulations on the rebirth.
April 18th, 2008 at 10:28 pm
ahh sweet, i never took the old rss feed out. *sniffle* good to have the gang back for my commute, and glad to see nick carr back on board possibly?
April 19th, 2008 at 12:22 am
Congratulations Steve!
It’s a great addition to the TC family!
Will you guys put the NewsGang Extra shows in the feed?
April 19th, 2008 at 2:21 am
Hey, how come the gang is all white dudes?
Oh, right, it’s the institutionalized, unexamined racism, classism, and sexism that runs rampant in geek circles. Forgot about that.

Congratulations on your new home and resurrected name – but don’t change anything else!

Congratulations Steve

Though leaders ? Couldn’t listen further than 5mins. Sounded like babies – twitter charachter length, bickering about sound quality. Where was the tech talk?
April 19th, 2008 at 1:26 pm
Erik, try decaf.
April 20th, 2008 at 11:16 am
Nice to see your podcast again. Now: why no mentioning of Podshow?
April 20th, 2008 at 8:27 pm
Itunes anyone???? Ok, I’ll stop asking that question and start physically adding the gilmore gang to my ipod…
April 21st, 2008 at 1:06 pm
Congratulations, Steve! I started listening in the very early days of IT Conversations (thank you, Doug Kaye), and went into deep podcast withdrawal while the show was on “sabbatical.” Gilmor Gang has had a major influence on my thinking about how to develop our business model. Thanks!!

Steve,
Glad you’re back. I missed you. Looking forward to listening to the conversation. Also, Saul Hansell is one of my favorite NYT reporters, but I always pictured him looking more rabbinical.

Penis enlargement pills cover only a small percentage of all the penis enlargement methods available. Most men decide to take these pills to increase their sexual confidence, perform better during intercourse, and give their partners more pleasure. However, research has shown that a number of these penis enlargement pills contain harmful substances such as mold, yeast, E. coli bacteria, pesticides, and lead.
