Who Cares About Tablet PCs?

Who Cares About Tablet PCs? 03/20/2003 01:05 PM
Many tablet PCs look a lot like laptops, some are as heavy as a lightweight notebook, and they often lack top-of-the-line features. Given these truths, one might wonder why anyone would buy a tablet PC. Will tablet PCs find their market, or should users wait for the next generation of devices?

Who Cares about Innovation?

Who Cares about Innovation? 08/21/2004 08:54 PM
Technologists are divided in some ways, but united by a common faith. Stated simply, we worship innovation. Openist, deregulationist, libertarian, or cyber-anarchist all take innovation as the goal. Our battles are mostly internecine warfare, fights about how best to achieve that common goal. But how often do we ask ourselves:...

Who Cares That It's VoIP?

Who Cares That It's VoIP? 06/05/2005 11:57 PM
Vonage and Skype are two very different things. However, since both are considered "VoIP," it's confusi ng plenty of people and making them shy away from anything having to do with VoIP. It is a problem for the industry that the idea of "telephone replacement" services are being lumped in with PC-to-PC software apps. There are some areas in which they overlap -- and that should only grow over time, but there's clearly a lot of consumer confusion in the market. People are increasingly aware that VoIP exists, and that it might be useful, but they're worried that it could mean giving up their phone or having to make calls via their computer, when that isn't necessarily true. To be honest, it's still not entirely clear why the VoIP industry has focused so much on selling "VoIP." The average consumer doesn't care: sell the real benefits of the service, whether it's cheaper phone service or simpler communications. Selling "VoIP" by itself is just adding to the confusion. A few companies seem to get this (plenty of cable companies refer to their offering as "digital telephone service" rather than VoIP), but it hasn't gone far enough. Also, in forcing VoIP companies to focus on selling the benefits, maybe they'll finally realize that they can offer a lot more in terms of features than traditional telephony, rather than just trying to replace it.

"It was as if the president's loyalty lay more with Saudi Arabia than with America's safety.'' And there's stuff about Iraq, too.

Who Cares About Sound Quality? 01/26/2004 03:29 AM
It seems that the focus on in-home entertainment devices has moved from the stereo system to the home theater system. However, this change of focus from the audio to the visual means that many buyers are skipping out on the fancier speaker systems - much to the dismay of those who sell such speakers. Even though home theater systems require a complex setup of speakers to produce optimal sound, some are worried that many buyers are too focused on the picture they get from the screen, and thus only buy the cheapest speakers to handle the sound. Of course, they're working to change this perception. Though, there are some odd ideas - including "tactile audio" where the speakers end up embedded in the furniture of the room itself. This way, the viewer can actually "feel" the sound relate to whatever they're watching in the home theater.

What’s wrong with this video?
Well, it only cost $15
$150,000 could make a difference to over 1,000,000 people

In this age of media companies and the RIAA suing everyone and their computer illiterate grandmothers, it’s nice to see an musician take a critical look at what it is that they do, if it’s really necessary, and ask if there was a better way to spend their money. And, quite frankly, it doesn’t surprise me in the least that it was Sarah McLachlan. (QT video)

Churchill Club Event: Blogging & Social Networking: Who Cares?

Marc Canter, The Devil's (or Angel's?) Advocate

Last night, the Churchill Club sponsored an event entitled, "Blogging & Social Networking: Who Cares?" As it turned out, at least 250 people who attended the event care. In fact, by the time we arrived, the Crowne Plaza Cabana Hotel parking lot in Palo Alto was already filled with Mercedes, BMWs and Porsches. (Somebody must have made money during the dot com boom.)

The whole evening had a "1994" feeling to it. There was a sense of optimism and enthusiasm that we hadn't seen since we attended the first Internet World Conference held in San Francisco in September 1994 at the beginning of the Internet boom.

The meeting was a moderated discussion with the following participants.

Panelists:

* Antony Brydon, CEO, Visible Path Corporation
* Jason Calacanis, Chairman, The Weblogs, Inc. Network
* Marc Canter, CEO, Broadband Mechanics
* Charlene Li, Principal Analyst, Forrester Research, Inc.
* Ross Mayfield, CEO, Socialtext
* Ajit Nazre, Partner, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers
* David Pell, Electablog.com
* Mark Pincus, CEO, Tribe Networks

Moderators:

* Dan Gillmor, San Jose Mercury News
* Tony Perkins, Creator & Editor-in-Chief, AlwaysOn

The stage when thus set to talk about what many of the panelists described as Internet 2.0, with Internet 1.0 spanning the 1994-2002 timeframe. Dan Gillmor of the San Jose Mercury News said that blogging and social networking have now enabled the Tim Berners Lee's initial vision for the web as a "read-write" environment as opposed to the "read-only" content consumption focus of Internet 1.0.

Ross Mayfield of Socialtext put further meat on the bone by asking the question: What changes might we expect when:

1) Weblog software platforms drive the cost of publishing to zero?
2) Social networking platforms drive the cost of creating and organizing group activities to zero?

A number of the panelists pointed to the significant impact of weblogs and social networking on politics with Howard Dean's presidential campaign held up as a prime example of the savvy use of these platforms. As a San Jose Mercury News article dated 2/10/2004 said, "The forces the [Dean] campaign unleashed -- and the people who discovered they had a chance to change things -- aren't going to be rebottled anytime soon."

Dan Gillmor asked the most interesting question of the night saying, "How long will it be before a President of the United States is elected that had a weblog as a teenager?" What makes this an interesting question is that anything that we contribute to the Web is effectively "unerasable."

Staying in the political realm, David Pell of Electablog.com imagined that, "Sometime soon, maybe even now, oppressed women in Arab countries will begin using anonymous weblogs to draw attention to their plight in a way that 60 Minutes never could."

Politics aside, the real question on many people's minds was: "Can you make money doing this stuff?"

There was a significant amount of disagreement on this topic with the CEOs of the social networking companies predictably saying that "There's gold in them "thar" hills," and Marc Canter, also predictably, playing the devil's advocate, telling the VCs to "Stay away and not screw things up."

My own personal feeling is that the impact of both the social networking and weblog platforms will be significant but, speaking from a biased perspective as an entrepreneur in this space, the financial benefits will accrue to the "little guys." I believe this because, I share the viewpoint made last night that, both weblog and social networking software platforms will become open-source commodities. The value-add will come as entrepreneurs apply these platforms to under-served niche markets. These markets, by definition, will be small in scale creating many small profitable private companies but very few, if any, large public companies.

Perhaps Internet 2.0 will allow thousands of entrepreneurial flowers to bloom creating an era of "Cottage Commerce," a term coined in the early 90's by my long-lost friend, Michael Grant, formerly of Apple Computer and Macromind.

Then again, I could be dead wrong. What do you think?

Use the power of Internet 2.0 to share your comments.

Big Mac is third fastest

Big Mac is third fastest 11/05/2003 10:59 AM
The Virginia Tech Supercomputer cluster affectionately known as "Big Mac" has posted numbers fast enough to qualify it for third fastest supercomputer, not fourth, as previously thought. The Register notes that the cluster, made up of 2,200 G5 processors in 1,100 Power Macintoshes, has reached 10.28 teraflops, which places it behind the Earth Simulator system at 25.9 teraflops and IBMs ASCI Q system at 13.8 teraflops. The two fastest systems are comprised of far more processors...

Virginia Tech's G5 cluster has officially been ranked as the world's third fastest supercomputer, with a performance of nearly 10.3 trillion calculations per second. Number 1 was Japan's Earth Simulator at 35.6 Tflops per second and number 2 the Los Alamos ASCI Q at 13.8 Tflops. The Virginia Tech cluster, built of 1100 DP 2GHz G5s, cost only $5.2 million, a fraction of the cost of the others in its class.
