06/17/2005 04:51 PM“When Kevin Callahan started offering classical guitar lessons
over an Internet video link,” writes Peter Wayner for the New
York Times, “he wanted the sound to be as close as possible to
being in the same room. After experimenting, he built a system that
channeled three guitars, a microphone, and an orchestral synthesizer
through a professional mixing board to his Macintosh. From there, he
blended the sound with Apple’s GarageBand software before sending
it out over the Internet.” [Jun 16, 2005]
Facetop: Ghostly Videoconferencing
Facetop: Ghostly Videoconferencing
07/02/2004 10:05 AM
Facetop is an
experimental videoconferencing implementation that superimposes a
ghost image of the person you're talking to over an image of their
desktop, allowing you to not only communicate with them via video but
to share control of applications, watching them make changes as they
go. Although the system is just software, essentially, because it uses
extensions built into OSX it is expected to remain Mac-only until
Microsoft launches Longhorn in a couple of years (although it's likely
that someone would be able code something similar in Windows if they
wanted).
It might be important to point out that the people in these screen
shots aren't reflections -- that's the output of Facetop.

Although it was announced in
September of last year, this "Campho Advance" module, as in 'Camera
Phone,' for the Game Boy Advance is finally ready to hit the streets
of Japan. It's not much more than a hack, with an 0.11-megapixel
camera and only 5 frames per second sent over the phone line, but it
will allow expensive, if fun videoconferencing using a regular old
GameBoy (SP or plain Advance -- the image flips depending on how you
put the cartridge in). Sadly, there's not much chance this $175 will
grace our shores, but really, for the price, would you want it to?

04/29/2004 07:41 AMGreat first-hand account of a SoCal warflying expedition:
I went warflying over Los Angeles yesterday with a group of other
Wi-Fi nuts and a representative from CNN. We had two planes flying in
formation with Netstumbler, Kismet, and Airmagnet running. Plus we
performed a video conference during the flight. We think this is the
first time anyone has done a plane-to-plane videoconference! And it
worked great!
...We flew from Brackett Field in La Verne (a.k.a. Pomona Airport)
towards Pacific Palisades. Then we crossed over LAX into Rancho Palos
Verdes and Long Beach. Then headed back to Backett. We picked up over
4000 access points while flying at varying altitudes.

ROBIN GOOD
ON VIDEOCONFERENCING
04/16/2004 01:10 PM
One of the kind people who have
been helping me test desktop video software this week is Robin Good,
a veritable alchemist of videoconferencing. I was blown away both by
Robin's deep knowledge of the video tools currently in the market, and
his 'homegrown' applications that integrate and build on the best
features of several of the commercial conferencing apps out there. If
you're looking for high quality, reliable many-to-many
videoconferencing capability at an affordable price, just go directly
to Robin and he'll get you set up right. This guy is really sharp
(though he neither looks nor sounds like what I expected)!
Robin has two events coming up that you should check out if you're in
the market. Here is more information on them, in Robin's own
words:
Kolabora Live! Buyer's Review:
April 22nd: InstantPresenter vs. C3 Collaborator
An ongoing series of live events in which I will personally review
multiple real-time collaboration technologies and in which end users
will be able to ask and to compare differences and advantages for each
tool presented. In each 60-minute Buyer Review I will first introduce
the competing technologies I have personally selected and I will offer
a “buyer conscious”, concise and benefit-driven analysis of
their
features, functionalities, key strengths and weaknesses. The remaining
time in the event is used for allowing potential buyers and customers
attending the event to ask live questions about the tools presented.
The questions can be addressed either to me or to one of the elected
representative of the technologies showcased.
At the end of the Buyers Questions I poll the audience on key feature,
traits, marketing and sales issues relating to these products allowing
me to gather specific buyers desires, preferences and needs relative
to
the tools showcased. On the basis of the polled data The Kolabora
Buyers’ Pick Award is then assigned to the showcased technology
that
has been able to stand the toughest test of all: the buyer's mind.
Buyer's Pick technology is then showcased on Kolabora until the next
Buyer's Review goes live. There is no cost for companies to
participate. More info or Sign-up: http://tinyurl.com/3emek
Kolabora Live! Monthly
Seminar
A new unique 75-minute monthly event where I report live (audio/video
+ slides) on:
- New tools that have appeared on the market
- Most
interesting tools – attention movers
- Best
practices
- Complementary tools and technologies
- Online
resources and recommendations
- Interface design,
UI
- Functionalities, - features that can give you an edge
because they have not been exploited yet
- Tools and their
usability – how to improve usability of your
tools
- Deployment and technical issues
- Performance – what do people expect
- Perceived ease of use – how to measure –
who is doing best and why
- Marketing strategies – offers,
demos, trials, pricing approaches – what is best
Participants can submit specific questions via a text interface and in
the final 40 minutes I devote my time exclusively to provide public
answers to these. Access to this event is limited to 200 people and is
sponsor-supported. Initially the event is accessible for free. Only a
registration is needed. Recording of the event is offered as a
commercial download. Sign-Up: http://tinyurl.com/358l4

Robin, Skype guru Stu
Henshall,
and several others have graciously given me the opportunity to test a
variety of desktop video tools, and given me the names and specs of
many other tools I have not yet had time to test. Although I will
issue
a full report when I've finished testing, so far I am quite impressed
with SightSpeed's video quality, and I have yet to find anything that
matches Skype's audio quality.

Weaning off laptop

I have been using laptops primarily for the past few years and now
I am planning to
return to desktops. Why? Because laptops are difficult
to upgrade and
I am tired of paying too much to replace broken parts or batteries
dying over time.
The control key on my current laptop, a Dell Inspiron 8000, is
sticky and I can't
fix it without sending my laptop off. Fans (yup, it has two)
and hard drives
turning on and off is annoying too.
I have been eyeing the 17-inch PowerBook but Windows is my primary
target environment
so I can't just replace my laptop with the PowerBook. So I am
going to get a
desktop, not the most powerful one available, but one that hits the
Sweet Spot.
I think that means 3.2 GHz Pentium 4. So far I am looking at
Dell Dimension
8300 with 2 gig of memory, 400G disk. Since I am
addicted to 1600x1200
resolution and LCD (read ClearType), I'll have to get one of those
20-inch LCD and
match that with Radeon 9800 GPU. Even with fastest optical
drives (CD/DVD-RW),
total cost is around $2400 which is pretty good deal I think.
Only problem is that the price keeps dropping. Longer I hold
off on getting
it, the cheaper it gets. It's amazing that with such a strong
incentive not
to press the submit button, the computer industry still humms
along. How crazy
is that?
After I finish making the transition to the desktop, maybe I'll get
the PowerBook
(why the heck does it support only 1440x900?) with the excuse that
I'll be writing
some OS X software. At least that's the line I am going to
use on my wife. OS
X software market is going to explode, honey!

Is That A Laptop Or A Phone?
Is That A Laptop Or A Phone?
02/19/2004 11:28 AMIntel is now pushing computer makers to
build
phones directly into laptops. At first, I wondered why this was
necessary, since it's easy enough to install a softphone - but they're
actually talking about the hardware aspect. The idea is that on the
cover of the laptop, you'd have a screen and phone buttons, and the
system could be used even if the computer was in sleep mode.
Initially, the phone would be a VoIP phone, but they also want to add
cellular service. The screen also will integrate with some email
programs so you could check your email without opening up the
computer. While this certainly has a novelty factor, I wonder how big
a market there really is for such things. Most people who would be
remotely interested in this have a mobile phone already. Are they
really going to be that interested in adding additional phone service
just for their computer? Also, the way this offering is described, it
sounds like it's only really useful if the laptop is closed.

If you've got no concern for

cardboard PowerPizza boxes. Although they look sturdy enough, I'm
thinking we're probably looking at novelty use, unless you find big
pizza boxes the perfect form factor for hauling through subways or
airports. Purchase now for £12.99 and they'll get it to you in
28 days or less -- or the next one is the same price. May or may not
be used to calculate the value of pi. (Thanks, Dave!)
