iPods
12/24/2004 12:55 PMSpotty shortages abound for Apple Computer Inc.'s wildly popular iPod
digital music players amid Wall Street expectations for a doubling in
sales of the devices in the holiday quarter, analysts said on
Wednesday. "I was at an Apple store just yesterday and the place
was packed with people looking at iPods and iPod accessories,"
said Susan Kevorkian, an analyst at IDC in San Mateo, California.
"There's no question that iPods are an extremely hot item this
holiday season." Some financial analysts have forecast that Apple
will sell 4 million of the market-leading devices in the current
quarter, double the number it sold in the previous period, when they
accounted for 23 percent of the Cupertino, California-based company's
overall revenue.

PHP: Less Popular than ADA ?????
01/05/2003 09:07 AMPHP: Less Popular than ADA ?????
Slashdot is citing a good article that looks at popularity of
programming languages in terms of the number of jobs advertising for
them. The number 1 is Java with 2,739 jobs on Monster. PHP, which
isn't even on the list, has 189 jobs when I do the query myself. That
puts PHP at about 1/2 the popularity of Ada. Oh dear god. [_Go_]
On Dice there are just 30 PHP jobs which puts PHP behind Ada, Fortran,
Scheme, Python and Smalltalk.
And on HotJobs it is impossible to tell how many jobs they have since
they are indexing the file extensions of URLs with PHP as searchable
text. DOH ! (Try looking at the Entry Level Construction - Training
jobs and you'll see that the only citation of PHP is in the url to
apply).
The FuzzyGroup offers search engine consulting services to avoid this
kind of foolishness. We have over 15 years of combined experience in
implementing search engine technology and avoiding silliness like
this.
So does this mean to increase my marketability I need to toss my PHP
books out the door and hunker down with books on Fortran or Ada?
Yikes. I think I'd rather dig ditches.

AssetMetrix surveyed
136,120 PCs between January 5 and March 10. It found that 37.6 percent
of those PCs ran Windows XP. The operating system is more widely
adopted among companies with fewer than 500 PCs, where slightly more
than half of the PCs run Windows XP, according to the study. Also,
smaller organizations show the highest acceptance of SP2, it says.
Of the 251 companies surveyed, 44 had fewer than 10 PCs running
Windows XP. Eighty-four, or 40.7 percent, of the remaining companies
had not installed SP2 from their XP machines, while 16 companies, or
7.7 percent, had updated their XP-based PCs, according to the

Calling The Help Desk Is Popular
07/29/2004 01:23 PMHow often do you call the corporate IT help desk? According to a new
study from Siemens Business Services (they want your outsourced IT
support business, so there's a bit of a bias)
employees spend a ridiculous amount
of time asking for help each week -- and it's not always for
work-related technology problems. Over one-quarter of users
apparently called their corporate IT help desk to get help with
personal technology problems. Meanwhile, five percent of white collar
workers claim to spend
five hours a week chatting with tech
support, and 36% say they spend about 30 minutes a week with tech
support. Seems like an awful lot of problems to fix, though, you have
to wonder how much of that time tech support is spending trying to fix
people's personal tech problems.

I don't use webcams, because I am ugly. But once upon a
time, I was a pretty princess of a man, and had a pretty good time
playing around with basic video chat and periodic Brady Bunch groups
of pictures on webpages. And while I think it's sort of the received
wisdom that all webcams suck equally, Tom's Hardware took it upon
themselves to see if that was really the case. The result? Not only
can you pay up to $200 for a simple webcam, it seems the more you pay,
the better the quality. Amazing!

Next Generation Webcam Looks You In The
Eye
06/30/2004 04:31 AMJust in case you might have been put off by webcams that showed people
staring off at a weird angles, you can now be totally weirded out by a
webcam system that
compensates so
that the foreground person is always looking you in the eye. A
setup of two webcams transforms the video images to a 3D image map
that re-creates an accurate angle-manipulated video. Microsoft's
research lab and i2i have been developing the technology for a while,
so it could be released for video chat sessions in the not too distant
future. And if you're worried about what your background looks like
(eg. your messy room/office), a suitably-chosen image can replace your
actual surroundings. Perhaps the Jetsons should be cited as prior art
for some of the features.

The return of the webcam
The return of the webcam
03/14/2005 04:25 PMThrough a series of miracles yesterday, I stumbled across something
I've been searching for forever: an OS X driver (plus a fix for OS X
10.3) for my old USB QuickCam. (I also found an add-on that
lets me use said USB cam with iChat AV. Whee!) I then downloaded a
program called EvoCam, and just like
that, the webcam is back up
(view in popup). (No guarantees as to how long it will stay
up.)
How's that for a bit of nostalgia? Back in the early days of
weblogs, a lot of folks had webcams...it was part of the package.
Posts, a list of links to your friends' sites, a webcam, link to your
Amazon wishlist, maybe a link to your Epinions page, an about page, a
guestbook or little chat widget in the sidebar, etc. It was a social
space to move around in. Now that everyone is reading everything in
RSS readers, a lot of that sort of thing has been lost. RSS readers
are not that social, even with so-called "next gen" newsreaders that
recommend sites based on what you already read. It's mostly just
information in, information out...little time or opportunity for play.
Thank God for sites like Flickr,
LiveJournal, and Fark, where people can still go to hang
out and play around with the web and their friends a bit.

Intel Presents the Pig and Cow Webcam
Intel Presents the Pig and Cow Webcam
05/20/2004 08:17 PMA pig, a cow, a camera, some coffee--and thievery: There's got to be a
category that's uniquely unique, as much as an oxymoron as that might
sound. Nigel Ballard sends the following combination police blotter,
glimpse in the future, and Wi-Fi report from Portland, where he helps
build out community wireless networking hotspots as part of Personal
Telco: I'm on a new steering committee! This'll make it three in
total. The Pig & Cow Steering Committee differs from the others,
not only because it has a way more interesting title, but also because
there are livestock involved, albeit the plastic variety. Confused?
OK, some background is needed. Urban Grind is a coffee house with a
difference, home to Personal Telco and a whole host of other
community-related happenings. You need to hang there to see how very
different it is from the sterility encountered in those national
coffee houses. A few months back two plastic animals appeared on the
countertop. Namely, a pig and a cow. People waiting for their drinks
started posing the animals, and then customers slipped in extra
characters and even props to create scenes ranging from the beautiful
to the bizarre. Along comes Intel's People & Practices Research
Group who have been watching the way the free Wi-Fi access from Oregon
non-profit Personal Telco was changing the clientele, attracting
customers from miles away, and creating a real sense of community,
communication and interaction in this large and comfortable space.
Many of the customers at UG actually talk to each other; they learn
each others names, enquire about lives, loves and job searches,
amazing! Intel asked Urban Grind if they could install some fun
technology, Brenda and Macker, the proprietors said "Sure, knock
yourself out". Intel duly installs a camera, an LCD monitor, a big
blue button, a tiny web server and a wireless client to connect their
server through the Personal Telco Wi-Fi to the outside world. The idea
is this. You are invited to pose the characters, bring in some of your
own, and even add a prop. Hit the big blue button, the image appears
on the LCD monitor and shortly thereafter they also appear online at
the web site for all to see. Cool beans, but "why" I hear you ask.
Intel says "We'd like to help people get marginally more enjoyment out
of Urban Grind, or get to know other patrons a...
