@dsifry I now have an external battery pack for my iPhone. Too bad these terrific but tiny products aren't designed to hold enough juice.

@charleneli Most firms don't need one yet (sadly), but some do and certainly CCO will become more commonplace in the next few years IMHO.
My take on the ten leading platforms for creating online communities: http://tinyurl.com/67p4b9
The next month just got even busier: Roanoake, Orlando, New York City, Chicago, Cincinnati, Stockholm, and Monaco. All for 2.0 events/work.
http://howsociable.com is a fairly interesting new app that lets you measure the social media reach of your brand, company, etc.
We're in downtown Chicago in 2 weeks for Web 2.0 University for those wanting a serious leg-up on the topic: http://bit.ly/chicago_web_2_u
Another social location service http://goloco.org is out. Has Facebook integration and, in a unique twist, expense management.
Seeing http://www.oembed.com/ getting some uptake as an API to automatically get embed code from popular sites like YouTube/Flickr, etc.
Google's Chrome move makes perfect sense given that they take "Web as platform" seriously. Servers? Check. Browser? Check. Users? Check.
Another IM app for iPhone: http://bit.ly/im_plus But the real issue is the stateless nature of iPhone apps is in opposition to the IM model.
Another example of large companies doing community interaction with Twitter: @charleneli is tweeting with @comcastcares. And liking it.
Getting many tweets on best up-and-coming community platform. Leader with 4 tweets is Pinax: http://pinaxproject.com/
Everyone, please send me @ replies with your fave up-and-comer choices for community platforms. Want outliers, not Drupal, Joomla, etc! :-)
Looking for Web 2.0 and E2.0 heavy lifters with passports for intriguing projects: http://hinchcliffeandcompan...
Facebook is harnessing collective intelligence to make it's ~40K social apps localized in other languages: http://bit.ly/fb_app_transl...
Python is Google's cloud computing language of choice and the new 2.6 version has serious multiprocessing support: http://bit.ly/python_2_6
The enterprise Twitters keep coming: http://www.socialcast.com/ launched a heavily upgraded, self-service version today for SMBs and F500s.
Try it, the Google Chrome download is here: http://gears.google.com/chr... Fascinating bits: It's Windows only and in the Gears subdomain.
PhpNuke, a framework for creating online communities, has fastest growth rate of any community platform we're tracking http://phpnuke.com/
Positive buzz today for Google's new open source browser made for modern Internet use (apps in particular). http://bit.ly/google_chrome
