Oh, Those Evil Online Maps


Oh, Those Evil Online Maps 12/19/2003 11:39 AM
At what point will people realize that technology is just a tool, and it can be used for both good purposes and bad purposes? Every time people realize that a tool might be used for bad purposes they seem to freak out. The latest is that people are worried that online mapping services might be used by stalkers to find out where you live. Of course, there are plenty of other ways to find out where someone lives, but because mapping tools and phone books are available online for free, people are freaked out. While the vast majority of users use these tools for perfectly legitimate reasons, there are always going to be some people who use them for nefarious purposes. That doesn't mean that we should ban the technology, but teach people about it so they understand what can be done.

Americans in cyberspace: new Pew study


Americans in cyberspace: new Pew study 01/03/2004 02:31 AM

A new study by the Pew Internet and American Life project analyzes American usage of cyberspace . The results describe a nation with more people than ever doing more and more varied activities online. While email remains the most popular application, "[i]nformation-seeking activities" are very important for many users. Roughly two-thirds of Americans are online now, but that number's growth has dwindled, suggesting the offline population is stabilizing. Despite the economic downturn, internet financial usage grows .

Interestingly, information overload seems to be less of a problem for those with the greatest amount , due to innovative practices and technologies:

In a telephone interview, Horrigan shared what he found most surprising about the data: The heaviest information technology users—the Young Tech Elites—are the ones who feel least burdened by information overload. “They’ve developed coping mechanisms to deal with the wealth of information that’s out there,” he said.
These mechanisms, Horrigan discovered, range from using spam filters and creating multiple folders to manage legitimate e-mail to simply knowing when to keep your cell phone off.

The Tensions of Securing Cyberspace

The Tensions of Securing Cyberspace: The Internet, State Power & The National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace by Michael T. Zimmer
http://firstmond ay.org/issues/issue9_3/zimmer/

ABSTRACT:

The National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace exposes a growing tension between the nature of the Internet and the regulatory powers of the traditional nation–state. The National Strategy declares, with all the strength and authority of the United States government, the desire to secure a space many consider, by its very nature, chaotic and beyond the reach any organized or central control. This paper will argue that both the structural architecture of the Internet and the substantive values codified within it clash with governmental efforts to "secure cyberspace."

The Future of Cyberspace Economies


The Future of Cyberspace Economies 02/10/2004 09:27 PM
Here're my running notes from Th e Future of Cyberspace Economies at the O'Reilly Emerging Technology Conference in San Diego.
Econ is the study of choice under scarcity. The dismal science says, when essential stuff is scarce, you've got to trade something for something else.

MMORPGs sometimes try letting everyone have everyone for free are ghost towns. MMORPGs create artificial scarcity.

The surprise to econismists is that scarcity is fun -- people hunger for that which is dismal, scarce.

Because wealth accrues due to temporal investment, the rich and powerful in MMORPGs are people who can devote a lot of time to games, which means that they tend to be poor in real life.
