The 411 on 411 for cellphones

The 411 on 411 for cellphones 03/19/2003 10:25 PM

Cellphone numbers are going to start showing up in directory assistance sometime next year:

Individual carriers would determine whether subscribers would have to pay to be unlisted. Other privacy options are possible, too. For example, wireless phone users might choose to be unlisted but willing to receive a short text message, sent through the directory service, from someone trying to contact them.

Do cellphones cause cancer?

Do cellphones cause cancer? 11/18/2003 03:18 PM
The jury is still out on whether or not cellphones cause brain cancer, but let's just say that the latest research indicates that it's not looking so good. Unfortunately, Federally-funded research that might be able to give us a conclusive answer to all this isn't expected to be completed until 2011. Just in time for the massive epidemic of brain cancer that's predicted. Read [Via WiFi Networking News]...

LG's first GSM cellphones

LG's first GSM cellphones 11/10/2003 11:04 PM
We rarely cover the low-end of the cellphone market these days, but Cingular is carrying a couple of nicely designed new handsets from LG that are the first models from the South Korean manufacturer that work with GSM cellular networks. The G4050 (pictured at right) has a 65,000 color internal display, an external Organic Electro-Luminescent display, and a digital camera attachment, while the G4010 is bit more low-end and only has a grayscale display.

How cellphones change teenagers

How cellphones change teenagers 08/03/2004 05:15 AM
Sociologist Mimi Ito has just published a great paper on the way that mobile phones change teen social interaction on Vodaphone's Receiver magazine:

After young people have converged in physical space, mobile communication does not necessarily end. In contrast to work meetings in which mobile communications are largely excluded, among gatherings of young people, the mobile phone is a social accessory. They might call a friend, inviting them to join them, or getting information about the conversation at hand. When an email message comes into a friend's mobile, it is quite common to ask who it was from and a conversation about that person to ensue. Young people generally reported that they had no reservations about making contact with others via mobile phones when they were with a group of friends, though they might make a brief apology if a one-on-one gathering was interrupted with a voice call.

Rickshaw cellphones in India

Rickshaw cellphones in India 12/08/2003 12:54 PM
A cellphone company in India is outfitting a fleet of 200 rickshaws in the city of Jaipur with handsets so they can double as mobile payphones. Each rickshaw is set up with a cellphone, a battery, a billing machine, and a printer and the drivers receive a commission of 20% for each call made. The same company says they're also planning to equip a few rickshaws with wirelessly connected laptops, too. Read [Via SmartMobs]...

Aren't Cellphones Annoying? And What's
Up With Those PDAs? 08/19/2004 07:35 AM

There was a time where I thought my career was going to be in that sparkling sugarplum factory known as "computers," but reading columns like this one by Robert J. Samuelson has convinced me that my career in "journalism" is much more suited to my desire to string lots of curmudgeonly words together and get paid for it. This week's insightful column? "A Cell Phone? Never for Me." You fight that power, Samuelson. (I especially like the part where he notes that he has also "resisted ATM cards, laptops, and digital cameras." This is the part where Zombie Thoreau puts down his cell phone and slaps the wax out of him.)

So that's journalism, I guess. I can't wait until I'm old and can write columns for Newsweek like, "What's Up With Mustard?" and "Holo Porn? It's 2D for Me."

Voicemail, podcasting, cellphones,
cameras, etc 12/27/2004 04:59 AM

Adam has ideas about integrating voicemail and podcasting, and I've been having similar ideas about digital cameras and cellphones.

Here's a scenario. I'm hiking on a popular trail outside Sedona, taking pictures, of course. Since this trail is so popular, I pass about a dozen families, couples, solos, families with kids, families with dogs. Okay, as I pass them I can take their picture if they want me to. My camera connects through Bluetooth to their cellphone and transfers the pictures I take. Not sure about all the permissions, it's probably another panel on the Setup screen on my camera.

BTW, Nikon has a much more complex user interface than Apple's and it works a lot better. Same with my Nokia cellphone. All these devices are comparable. And the wifi capabilities these devices are all going to get soon will enable Bluetooth-like features, except without any limit on range. You can synch up with devices anywhere as long as they are accessible over the Internet.

Hey while we're at it I'd like my phone and camera to be bluetoothing the URL of my weblog to anyone nearby who cares.

Roland Piquepaille writes "In "Cellpho ne software allows a musical jam," the New Scientist writes that English engineers have found a way for groups of people to collectively create music using their cellphones. "Nick Bryan-Kinns and his colleagues at Queen Mary College (QMC) have developed the "daisyphone" software that let will groups of people phone into a mobile number and work together to improvise short, looping tunes." My blog gives you more details on the project and includes a screen capture of the creation of some school kids after using the software. You can try daisyphone by yourself (providing you have Java 1.4.1). I certainly hope you'll be better than me. "
