Hollywood social networks are using IM Status (i.e. Busy, Away) as a communication channel (i.e. Status: Need Work). Excellent idea!

For Dave's Instant Outliner, this could be done very easily so one could see status of team members, friends, and family.

For blogrolls, a short status description element can be added to each feed. Blogroll has to be live though for this to work. How would it look? Where you see the orange XML pseudo-image on my blogroll to the right, you would see short messages from the bloggers like Need Work, Help Wanted, In Japan, Sick, or simply RIP for grave bloggers.

Note that the status could be little graphics like Sparkline or an image. Status of a dog, for example, will be a webcam snapshot.

Finally secure about communication

Finally secure about communication 03/06/2004 01:51 AM

I'm happy to report I've finally found a solution to a long-standing problem. Wireless internet connections are great, especially on laptops, but they lack good security. You can try to keep people off your network with passwords and mac address filtering, but eventually someone that wants on will get on no matter what you do (those solutions are like The Club on your steering wheel -- your car can still be stolen).

Whenever I'm on a public open wireless network, I've taken a lower tech approach by not going to any sensitive sites, and reading email in a secure shell window running pine, but sometimes I accidentally load a page on an unsecure server and my password is shared with everyone in the room. I've long wondered why Apple didn't create a simple app to automate secure tunnels and I've tried all sorts of custom packages but nothing was ever easy to setup or reconnect to. I've always felt like a bit of a dork for not getting this solved, as I travel from one technical conference to the next, covering my tracks and watching my back while reading email in a tiny text window instead of a rich GUI client.

I heard about HotSpotVPN last year, but they were windows-only at the time. Thanks to a mention on the SXSW blog, I noticed they have OS X support now as well. I signed up and set it up on my powerbook. I connected in a flash and my browser, IM, and email worked fine. I noticed that once I saved my VPN setup, OS X added an icon in my toolbar that had a simple dropdown to "connect" and "disconnect" -- this is exactly what I've always wanted and it didn't even require any software to download. Very slick.

To check the security, I disconnected from HotSpotVPN's servers and ran Ethereal (a packet sniffer) on my desktop PC that's also on the network. I checked my email and checked the output on ethereal and my username, pop servers, and passwords were all in the clear. I connected to the VPN and ran the same test and only see garbled text that isn't even showing up as POP commands as the traffic is all being sent through the VPN securely. The only downside is that you have to trust that the company running HotSpotVPN is going to be secure with their data, as they could be sniffing/logging/analyzing your traffic on their end, but frankly I think the chances of that happening are slim, since they've been around for a couple years and doing anything like this would end the business for them.

Long story short, this is the best $8.88/month I've spent and I'm going to set up an account for all my wireless devices.

Blogging in the Liberal Arts Classroom

"Barbara Ganley has posted her complete BlogTalk paper titled 'Blogging as a Dynamic, Transformative Medium in an American Liberal Arts Classroom' which, not surprisingly, is an enthusiastic and articulate reflection on her successes using Weblogs in the classroom. It's another great resource for teachers of all levels...." [Weblogg-ed News]

Will is right that this is an interesting read. I particularly like this quote of a quote (that Will also pulled) about NetGens:

"Arguing that 'the world has changed; the classroom has not,' she notes that schools continue to ignore the social aspect of learning that Weblogs offer to a generation that is increasingly familiar with the digital commons, moreso than their teachers. She has a great quote from James Duderstadt:

'They expect--indeed, demand--interaction, approaching learning as a 'plug-and-play' experience; they are unaccustomed and unwilling to learn sequentially--to read the manual--and instead are inclined to plunge in and learn through participation and experimentation...They learn in a nonlinear fashion, skipping from beginning to end and then back again, and building peer groups of learners, developing sophisticated learning networks in cyberspace. In a very real sense, they build their own learning environments that enable interactive, collaborative learning, whether we recognize and accommodate this or not.' "

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. If your library's strategy is to answer these kids' reference questions by sitting behind a desk and waiting for them to walk up to you to ask them, you will be answering a small fraction of their questions. You have to meet them in their world, and increasingly this will mean via IM, SMS, and online, synchronous reference.

Communication is a central aspect of all our lives. Today, our modes of communication are highly dependent on technologies such as the internet, wireless networks, phones, and computers. This issue of Topic in Depth explores the ways these forms of communication are part of our lives and highlights some new directions in communication technology. WordIQ Dictionary and Encyclopedia (1) offers this definition: "Communication is the process of exchanging information usually via a common system of symbols." The website explains some of the key process involved in communication and describes different forms of communication, such as animal communication, interpersonal communication, and computer-mediated communication. Also taking a broad view on communication, this world history website (2) provides some background on the mathematical theories that are used in designing telecommunications systems. The articles highlighted on this website from the Center for the Study of Technology and Society (4) attest to the far reaching influence of communication technology. As research on the MediaLab Europe website suggests (5), we have moved into not just developing technology that mediates interpersonal communication (such as phones) but also creating "intimate and personal connections with and through new technologies." This NSF website (6) also highlights some recent discoveries in Computer Information Science and Engineering. Finally, this article from First Monday (7) discusses the far-reaching effects these new developments in technology and globalization are having on language and learning.[From The NSDL Scout Report for Math, Engineering, and Technology, Copyright Internet Scout Project 1994-2003. http://scout.wisc.edu/]

“Five years ago we sold our darkroom equipment and moved our image editing to the computer. The image editing software we chose was Adobe Photoshop. It took us about a year to be able to make images from the computer that were as good as ones we had made in our wet darkroom. Today we are making images that we could not even have dreamed of making before. Since then our expertise in Photoshop has increased many times over, but our basic workflow has remained the same.”

They make it appear as if you can see right out the back of your monitor. Well, I've just posted a Photoshop tutorial that will teach you how to do it without cheating. Once you're done, post your results on the Transparent Screens Flickr photoset and make sure you let people know where you learned the technique!

Family tags: In a weird confluence of SoCal suburbia and meatspace metadata, people are tagging their cars with stick figure facsimiles of their family. What's next, the corporate version? (Stick figure CEO holds hand of middle manager holding hands with a legion of cube-dwellers...)

Update: Boing Boing reader Mario Lopez says:

These stickers started appearing in Mexican cities around 2001 and spread like wildfire. Now they are everywhere and even political candidates have resorted to this kind of advertising. They are sold everywhere and are customizable with the name/nickname of your children and pets and whatnot. It is all pretty abnormal and ugly. I can only guess that this fad was brought to the US by chicanos returning from these last holidays in their hometowns.

For once Mexico is not 10 years behind the US, now we are like 3 years ahead in the bizarre family sticker business. When everyone started using these things on their cars, authorities advised to the contrary, they said it was an unnecesary risk to broadcast so much information about your family (names, how many boys, girls, aproximate ages, etc) to potential kidnappers. No one seemed to care.

I will look for some really odd ones on the street and send them if they are really good.
