Klipsch iFi iPod Dock And Speaker System

Klipsch iFi iPod Dock And Speaker System 03/28/2005 10:30 AM

Klipsch will soon be shipping their new 2.1 channel iPod speaker system, called the iFi) for a bit more than the cost of two of their comparable ProMedia 2.1 systems. The allure, of course, is its simple silver sheen and the included iPod dock. The dock makes it compatible with the iPod, mini and iPod photo and will charge your player in its spare time. Also included is a wireless remote control. The speakers are magnetically shielded and the subwoofer provides up to 200 watts of peak system power. It's $400 (plus about $60 for shipping) and available for preorder, shipping very soon, so they say.

Make Use Of The Dock

Make Use Of The Dock 06/12/2004 12:37 PM
The Apple's Dock is not Windows' taskbar.
We are coming up to version 4 of Mac OS X soon, and yet, very little applications take advantage of the dock.
Application icons should reflect useful information in the dock. For example, an FTP application should show the status of the connection. Speaking as someone who always forget to close FTP connections, I will appreciate having easily informed on whether the connection is still opened, and whether there are still uploading or downloading activities going on.
Document icons should help the users to differentiate between different documents -- don't just stick a generic icon in there, and expect the user to scrub through the list to find the document he want.

Sponsors, speakers, panels, audience

Sponsors, speakers, panels, audience 05/07/2004 01:39 PM

Supernova and the recently announced Web 2.0 conference are throwbacks to the priorities of old conferences, of the eighties and nineties: sponsors, speakers, panels, audience.

Execs from high tech companies pay sponsorship fees, not disclosed, and guarantee that the content is paid advertising and that nothing real is said on stage. If you don't pay the sponsorship fee, you don't get a speaking slot. If you offend a sponsor, you don't get invited back.

These conferences are all spin, and empty bluster.

The organization of the conferences, with speakers and panels, guarantees that the audience falls asleep or is frustrated, waiting to make their point until they get to ask questions at the end of the session. Questions. What a silly concept. Look in the room. It's pretty likely the people who know the most are in the "audience."

By the end of the day people are in the hallway or outside, talking to each other, and when that gets boring, talking on cell phones.

Now that they have WiFi, at least there's an outlet for the audience's ideas, their blogs.

But as we learned at BloggerCon II, it's totally possible to do a conference without sponsors, without speakers, panels, without an audience. In this model, the rooms are full to capacity and even though there's WiFi, there was hardly any time to post to blogs. You can steal the design for this conference. And if you do, sign me up, I want to be there.

If you really want to get the most out of people's time, switch models. You don't need the money from the sponsors, and you don't need speakers, and you surely don't need an audience.
