Venezuela Goes With Untested E-Voting
Machines
07/12/2004 07:08 AMIf you thought there were problems with the US using electronic voting
touch screen machines, take a look down in Venezuela, where they're
getting ready for an election where they will
use new e-voting machines that haven't been
tested yet. The machines, from a small Florida-based company
do have a printed receipt, which is better than most US
machines. However, the software for the machines has not been tested
or certified yet, though the government claims they'll get around to
it before the elections. Of course, this is the same government that
had to postpone the entire election four years ago, after it was
determined just days before the election that the electronic voting
machines they were to use then weren't ready.

Are Speakerphone Mobile Calls Less
Annoying Than Regular Calls?
Are Speakerphone Mobile Calls Less
Annoying Than Regular Calls?
04/21/2004 03:53 PMLast week we noted a new study saying that
people get
annoyed with others talking on mobile phones because they only hear
one half of the conversation. At the time, I wrote that this made
sense as periods of silence followed by talking are a lot more jarring
to the passive listener. However, this BBC report claims that the
reason for the annoyance
is that it
shows that we're more curious about what the other party is
saying. I'm not sure I buy that. It seems much more likely that it's
the variability in noise, from silent to noisy rather than any form of
curiosity. When the conversation is at a constant hum (even when
loud), it's much easier to tune it out. Still, the findings do go
against the opinion many people have expressed that things like
"push-to-talk" where the phone usually acts as a speaker phone would
be more annoying since we get to hear both sides of the conversation.
In fact, the researchers behind the study are even suggesting that
mobile phone makers may want to explore adding speaker phones to more
phones to make them
less annoying. Of course, the study only
set up two conditions: a conversation on a mobile phone and a
face-to-face conversation. They didn't test the speaker phone
situation to see how annoying that was. It's possible that the
annoyance factor comes from the inability to make use of body language
to express concepts as well, leading to a different tone of voice.
