Trash Talk and Wifi
Trash Talk and Wifi
04/09/2004 04:02 PMWhen I posted about Conference Wifi I said When people create and
share networks from their Powerbooks, it causes collisions that
interfere with everyone's access. Turns out I am wrong, Macs are the
victims here, as Kevin Marks pointed out:...

Trash Talk Getting Life and Purpose
04/09/2004 04:00 PMWell, the web's a funny place, isn't it? Just the other day, I posted
my random idea about a trash talk virus for Mac OS X. You know, virus
is probably the wrong word. It's more of an ad-hoc network
entertainment application. But that's not the point. Anyway, within a
matter of a day or so it got some interesting traction. First off,
Ross suggested that it be used to help track down the folks who screw
up wireless networks...

Mac OS X Virus Idea: Mac Trash Talk
04/09/2004 04:00 PMI've had this idea for a while and have only told one person so far.
That means it's probably time to solicit feedback (or groans) from a
larger audience on it. The intent is not to build a virus, but merely
to think about what an amusing virus on the Mac might do--one that
takes special advantage of the Mac OS X platform. It started out, like
many ideas do, as the result of some idle brain time. For no...

Hinkmond Wong on wireless snitching. For a
side trip into philosophy,
M. Mortazavi talks up Dreyfus’

Internet and makes it sound like a must-read. Finally, I hate
it when life online veers into nastiness about personalities and
politics and that kind of stuff, but hey, engineers are competitive,

in this corner we have

Trash Talk Tops Political Buzzwords List

08/10/2004 03:51 AMThe Incivility of Political Discourse in American Politics has reached
unprecedented heights according to the August PQ Index
(Political-sensitivity Quotient) released by The Global Language
Monitor (www.LanguageMonitor.com). The PQ Index is a proprietary
algorithm that tracks politically sensitive words and phrases in the
media and on the Internet. Arnold Schwarzenegger's 'Girlie Men,' Vice
President Cheney's use of vulgarity, President Bush and Senator Kerry
both being characterized as 'Liars!', Mrs. Kerry's rude directive to
a reporter, and RFK, Jr's 'Fascist America' proposition highlight Top

I'll off to Berlin in a few hours. I'm going to the 21st Chaos Communication
Congress. I will be speaking about the Stat
e of Emergent Democracy. (I am working on my talking points on my
wiki.) I usually print out the conference schedule in case the
immigration officer wants to know what I am going to be doing in their
country, but I noticed that the schedule has stuff like: Lockpicking,
Bluetooth Hacking, GameCube Hacking, Hidden Data in Internet Published
Documents, Practical Mac OS X Insecurity, SAP R/3 Protocol Reverse
Engineering... Maybe I won't carry a printout of this schedule after
all. There is a How to
Survive page on the wiki about how to lock down your computer for
use on the network at the conference. Very good advice for anyone
going to any conference with an open LAN, but a bit ominous when you
are going to be a conference attended by a lot of serious hackers. I
have tried feebly to prepare, but please be nice to me.
It looks like there will be a whole platoon of Wikipedians and some
Croquet folks too. Lots of
people I haven't seen for awhile as well. Looking forward to seeing
everyone. See you soon on the other side.

03/30/2005 01:16 AMIt was brought to my attention today that Yahoo is copyrighting the
RSS feeds for those that are setting up Yahoo 360 accounts. Some are
already refusing to use the service because in a sense Yahoo now owns
your content.
This may be a oversight on Yahoo's part and I hope it is, I will
probaly use their service anyway but probably not the blog portion and
give them some time to answer these issues. [Yahoo

Talking to Yahoo
Talking to Yahoo
04/14/2005 02:33 AMI had a good talk yesterday with Jeff Weiner, Senior VP of Search
and Marketplace over at Yahoo! I shouldn’t pass on what Jeff said;
anyhow if he wants to talk to the world, he has
a blog. But I can talk about what I said: first, Y! should be
watching the Atom protocol work like a hawk, because they have two
choices: either they try to beat everyone else out there and build the
world’s greatest authoring tool, or they get behind a standardized
protocol and let the cellphone guys and PDA people and let everyone
compete to do it. Second, we were talking about improving search in
general; near as I can tell, there isn’t a huge quality gap between
Y!, Google, and MSN, and it’s hard to believe that any of them can
sustainably get much ahead of the rest. On the other hand, I think Y!
has a good chance to take on Google in the advertising space, both
AdSense and AdWords, and maybe win. They know a whole lot of stuff
about a whole lot of people; for example, they know my stock-market
portfolio and what weather forecasts and maps I look up; they probably
have more information about more individuals than anyone else in the
business. On behalf of all those advertising sellers and buyers: it
would sure be nice to see some competition. Maybe even some
transparency.

some very good speakers on copyright and copywrong, including my
co-worker Wendy Seltzer.
Copyright law has become one of the most important and controversial
drivers of the Information Society. The Internet has made every user a
publisher, but copyright rules governing their activities are often
determined by opaque international bodies that decide rules with
little public input.
Join us in Berlin to debate where copyright should be going to ensure
that authors, musicians, film-makers and the public will all benefit.
Engage wih leading international thinkers from across Europe and the
United States. Meet colleagues who are working to make sure all
members of society benefit from copyright.
Attendance is free.
