John Battelle’s conversation with HP's Vyomesh Joshi

Published 26 October 2007, 03:29 PM

John posted the interviews from last week’s Web 2.0 story. I love John’s introduction of VJ: “I had never seen a guy so excited about printing!”. As John pointed out, printing is one of the edges of the web. VJ covers a lot of ground in this chat. But predictably, he never answered John’s question about what Yahoo should do.

One of his insightful comments was that on the web, you need to have a very solid business model as a foundation.

John noted that Snapfish is now approximately the size of Facebook (45 million user), something to think about. As VJ commented “we don’t talk about it”. John also noted VJ was talking as a media company: is there an advertising opportunity?

I want to come back to some of the points in a follow up blog. In the meanwhile, it’s worth watching. Here is VJ’s interview . Remember to select the conversation on the right side navigation bar. It does not point to the right conversation by default.

Patrick, I have a product that would enable HP to grow its managed print services scope beyond the front office into the backoffice. I have not been able to contact someone in VJ's or John's group to discuss this with them. DO you have any contact info that I could try. Thanks Ian Stewart OPIN Systems
