SendStation PocketDock Combo and
PocketDock Line Out for iPod
06/21/2004 09:06 AM
SendStation, the
people who make the tiny PocketDock for the iPod have announced two
new models, the PocketDock Combo, which allows iPod owners to use
standard USB and FireWire cables to connect their dock-compatible
iPods to their PCs (instead of using Apple's cables) and the
PocketDock Line Out, which includes both the standard FireWire and an
eighth-inch stereo jack which feeds signal directly out of the iPods
line-out port (instead of the amplified headphone jack at the top).
The PocketDock Combo can be had for $23, while the Line Out can be had
for $30. Simple, cheap, easy. Nicely done.

Jason sez, "Knowing how crazy Boing Boing readers are for origami and
paper models, I thought you might be interested in Pepakura Designer,
which lets you print out plans for paper models from objects designed
in common 3D modelers... The demo has the save featured disabled, but
you can still print your objects. It works with objects from 3D
Studio, Lightwave, AutoCAD and a few others."

06/21/2004 01:46 PMSendStation Systems and RadTech have released two new PocketDock
models and
MiniSleevz
for iPod mini, respectively. SendStation's PocketDock is an adapter
that allows users to connect their iPods to their Macs with standard
FireWire cables instead of Apple's docking cables. The company's new
PocketDock
Combo (US$22.95) contains USB and FireWire ports that accept
standard USB cables as well as 6-pin FireWire cables. The
PocketDo
ck Line Out ($29.95) also features a 6-pin FireWire port but adds
a 3.5mm (1/8-inch) stereo jack that bypasses the iPod's headphones
amplifier for better sound quality when connecting the MP3 player to
external speakers. It comes with two six-foot white audio cables. Both
PocketDock models are available now and are compatible with Apple's
10, 15, 20, 30 and 40GB iPods, as well as the iPod mini.

Lightweight Business Models
Lightweight Business Models
09/22/2004 11:17 PMThe workshop that Jason Fried and myself will be giving at Web 2.0
is entitled "Lightweight Business Models". I'm liking that title more
and more as we approach the event.
What will be interesting to see - will be all the Web 1.0 folks
meeting all the Web 2.0 folks. Lots of announcements, schmoozing,
networking and (hopefully) kai-seki.
I have these vivid memories of the Nikko - doing kai-seki for hours
with various Japanese emissaries in the late 80's - when money was no
object.
I don't necessarily see the Web 2.0 as a platform with JUST eBay,
Amazon or Google - but it's nice to have them there. But it's also
nice to have Technorati, Sxip and Flickr.
:-)
The idea of workshop is that there are all these 'little' programs
out there that when connected together (via open standards) can create
a decentralized mesh of functionality united around new kinds of
micro-content.
Here's John
Battelle's post....
Over at O'Reilly,
Tim's posted his thoughts
on why Web 2.0 is a meme with legs, and he's inviting feedback from
his readers on what they'd like to see asked of all the speakers we
have coming to converse. I'd like to do the same - you guys have
always kept me honest, and the conference is really shaping up to be
something else again. As Tim puts it:
I'm talking about the emergence of what I've started to call Web
2.0, the internet as platform. We heard about that idea back in the
late 90s, at the height of the browser wars, but that turned out to be
a false alarm. But I believe we're now starting the third age of the
internet -- the first being the telnet-era command line internet, the
second the web -- and the third, well, that tale grows in the telling.
It's about the way that open source and the open standards of the web
are commoditizing many categories of infrastructure software, driving
value instead to the data and business processes layered on top of (or
within) that software; it's about the way that web sites like eBay,
Amazon, and Google are becoming platforms with rich add-on developer
communities; it's about the way that network effects and data, rather
than software APIs, are the new tools of customer lock-in; it's about
the way that to be successful, software today needs to work above the
level of a single device; it's about the way that the Microsofts and
Intels of tomorrow are once again going to blindside established
players because all the rules of business are changing.
Time and again as I report in this space, I'm struck by how
different this time round is from the late 1990s. For example, today I
spoke with Jeff Weber, who runs USAToday's digital publishing efforts,
and we had a robust conversation about publishing models, new and old.
I was part of the first wave of "new media" in the 90s, and we were
convinced that the world was changing, but wrong in the timing and
execution. Now, a whole host of "lightweight publishers" have sprung
up, and they are challenging and undermining the entire cost structure
and business model of old line publishers. This time, it's real. Weber
pointed out to me that Yahoo News, which is twice as big as
USAToday.com, and has just 11 employees. Then there's craigslist, with
more traffic than nearly anyone, and only 20 or so employees. How do
they do that? They've got a very Web 2.0, lightweight business model,
that's how (and Yahoo aggregates content, then creates interfaces, of
course). Over and over, in so many aspects of industry, we see this
happening - travel, finance, media, entertainment, retail. It's
exciting, and it's fun.
At Web 2.0, we're going to talk
about all this, and (this will be the last time, I promise) I'd really
like to see you all there. I still have a limited number of discount
codes to dole out, first come, first served (jbat at battellemedia dot
com). The event is October 5-7, in San Francisco at the Hotel
Nikko.
Even if you can't make it, check out the program
and let me know what you'd like to see asked of the speakers. I hope
to see you there!
