Defamer. LA is the world's cultural capital. Defamer is the gossip rag it deserves. Oh, but it's much better than that. Smart, funny, ever so slightly understated satire and snappy, sarcastic commentary. [via wonkette]

AT&T Wireless Launches 3G, But Why?


AT&T Wireless Launches 3G, But Why? 07/20/2004 12:40 PM
As was entirely expected (and leaked last week) AT&T Wireless has now launched their UMTS 3G service in San Francisco, Seattle, Phoenix and Detroit. The announcement also mentions that the service will be expanded to San Diego and Dallas by the end of the year. This is a bit curious, as those two cities were in the original list of four cities that AT&T Wireless named last year, but which (for no clear reason) were dropped from the list earlier this year. There still seems to be some confusion about whether or not AT&T Wireless was really required to do this as part of their deal with DoCoMo or not. Some have said that deal was no longer an issue since Cingular had agreed to buy out DoCoMo's share of AT&T Wireless. Still, it seems odd that AT&T Wireless has decided to launch this offering now. If the Cingular deal is really going to be completed this fall, why bother spending a couple months marketing the AT&T Wireless 3G service, only to have to rebrand it three months from now? Some are now saying that AT&T Wireless launching this service now might be an indication that the merger is a bit shakier than has been publicly stated. If the merger doesn't go through, they would still need to launch, since Cingular wouldn't bail them out from the DoCoMo agreement. Also, by launching earlier, they would have a head start on any 3G competition from Cingular. It still seems likely that the deal will go through, but this early announcement and unclear status of the DoCoMo clause is raising some eyebrows.

MyGoogle launches


MyGoogle launches 06/06/2005 12:13 AM

And so it finally begins. The Portal Wars 2.0.

I hate to take credit for coining the phrase, but it's been so obvious - for years - that this was going to happen that I didn't even mark down when I first used the phrase. That 2004 link refers to a reference I made in some blog post a couple of years before - but I haven't tracked that one down - yet.

Obviously the folks at Yahoo are gloating over this one.

MyGoogle.jpg

If you look at the initial set of offerings, it pales to MyYahoo - but hey, they've had a nine year headstart. Each of the Google offerings are real meaty, substatntive services, while MOST of the Yahoo services seem pale and staid in comparison (and certainly dated.)

But Yahoo can't go out and start buying all these new kind of services - all over again? Or can they? Flickr and ODDpost are nice starts.

But shouldn't these next generation portals (we call them DLAs) be leveraging the islands of functionality independently evolving on their own - like de.licio.us, webjay and buzznet? Shouldn't a next generation portal provide incredible rich media interfaces (otherwise known as Ajax or Laszlo?) Shouldn't a next generation portal provide ways for ALL OF US to make money?

Well we at ourmedia.org certainly think so.

And all of our clients (who have been keeping me so busy I haven't been able to blog) think so - too!

And needless to say Yahoo, Google and Microsoft (notice I'm not even including has-been AOL) don't have a monopoly on DLAs.

What about MTV, EMI or NBC? Or IBM, BEA or Oracle?

Can't this new portal things blow up so huge that we all can connect our digital IDs to MULTIPLE of these DLAs and smile? Isn't that what it's all about - making the humans happy?

Looking back on Excite@Home - we can now just chuckle how badly they blew it. To me - the SBC-Yahoo relationship has it right. Each partner bring their ex[pertise to the table and provide VALUE to the humans.

Stuff they pay for.

And so Google finally moves into a new categry - portals - which Yahoo has owned for years.

Now we get to see what open stgandards they build on - and where the data silos, propreitary barriers and old school thinking prevail.

DLAs are based upon the notion of a web of islands, meshed together by open standards. Those standards become the causeways and bridges between the islands.

So DLA vendors don't have to go off and buy services - they just need to support the islands open APIs and schemas welcome them to the marketplace. And facilitate open conversations.

If I was going to predict - I'll say that Yahoo will lead the way with Media and Groups standards - while Google will support open standards around Events and Topics.

I just hope EVDB goes along.

WirelessUnleashed Launches


WirelessUnleashed Launches 06/04/2004 09:08 AM
Earlier this week, with a little help from my friends, I launched a WirelessUnleashed, a group weblog on unlicensed wireless issues.  Between getting this online and Supernova planning, I've been so busy that I neglected to post a pointer here!

The site focuses on the benefits of reallocating low-frequency wireless capacity from broadcasting to unlicensed applications, both here and around the world.  There is a huge amount of capacity which could be used for two-way applications like broadband to the home, but which is locked up in broadcast allocations based on 1950s technology.  Freeing it up could create massive opportunities for innovation, and could dramatically lower the costs of wireless connectivity in developing countries.

My co-conspirators are Clay Shirky, Andrew Odlyzko, and David Isenberg. It's not often you find the brainpower that these three bring to the table in one place.
