In The Sphere: Metro Vancouver Edition

For this week’s edition of In The Sphere, we take a look at local bloggers from the Metro Vancouver area. As you may already know, Vancouver is quickly becoming quite the hub for technology, blogging, and the Internet.

John Chow is perhaps best known for being a dot com mogul, but he’s currently in Nebraska participating in the Top Affiliate Challenge. No, he’s not there as a contestant. He’s bigger than that. John is one of three Internet gurus leading teams of would-be top affiliates. Will his team come out on top?

Buzz Bishop is totally in tune with the latest happenings on the net, so when a new social network pops on the scene — especially one that is based locally — you know that he’s all over it. Move over Facebook and MySpace, because Kinzin is much more friendly to the less tech-savvy crowd. That’s because you can have those posted pictures automatically printed and mailed to grandma.

Darren Barefoot has just had a revelation. The population is getting older and now the average age of a TV viewer is 50. We’re already starting to see many more advertising campaigns catering to the older population and in the next few years, I foresee this trend continuing. Just don’t confuse Fox with Fox News Channel.

John Biehler is as ticked off as anyone over the announced plans for the iPhone through Rogers. There has been a lot of pressure on Rogers to budge on their pricey plans and now Rogers has revised its terms. The wording is a little sketchy, so you’ll have to take this “revision” with a grain of salt.

Mostly Lisa celebrated Canada Day the only way she knows how: by creating a video that parodies Canadians. Happy Canada Day, eh!
