Slab
City, CA "is not so sinister as it is a strange, forlorn
quarter of America. It is a town that is not really a town, a former
training grounds with nothing left but the concrete slabs where the
barracks stood. [...]
The land belongs to the state, but the state, like the law, does not
bother, and so the Slabs have become a place to park free. More than
3,000 elderly people settle in for the winter, in a pattern that dates
back at least 20 years." [NYT Reg Req]

How cellphones change teenagers
How cellphones change teenagers
08/03/2004 05:15 AMSociologist Mimi Ito has just published a great paper on the way that
mobile phones change teen social interaction on Vodaphone's Receiver
magazine:
After young people have converged in physical space, mobile
communication does not necessarily end. In contrast to work meetings
in which mobile communications are largely excluded, among gatherings
of young people, the mobile phone is a social accessory. They might
call a friend, inviting them to join them, or getting information
about the conversation at hand. When an email message comes into a
friend's mobile, it is quite common to ask who it was from and a
conversation about that person to ensue. Young people generally
reported that they had no reservations about making contact with
others via mobile phones when they were with a group of friends,
though they might make a brief apology if a one-on-one gathering was
interrupted with a voice call.

shut down by sending an SMS-encoded message to it. Hilarity ensues.
The e-mails contain a single word, taken from the phone's language
menu, surrounded by quote marks and preceded by an asterisk, such as
"*English" or "*Deutsch," Siemens said.
Opening the short-text message on a Siemens 35 series cell completely
disables it, Rice said. Siemens 45 series phones are less affected and
can be resuscitated after about two minutes of work, Rice said. Both
phones are sold only in Europe.

Aren't Cellphones Annoying? And What's
Up With Those PDAs?
08/19/2004 07:35 AM
There was a time where I thought my career was going
to be in that sparkling sugarplum factory known as "computers," but
reading columns like this one by Robert J. Samuelson has convinced me
that my career in "journalism" is much more suited to my desire to
string lots of curmudgeonly words together and get paid for it. This
week's insightful column? "A Cell Phone? Never for Me." You fight that
power, Samuelson. (I especially like the part where he notes that he
has also "resisted ATM cards, laptops, and digital cameras." This is
the part where Zombie Thoreau puts down his cell phone and slaps the
wax out of him.)
So that's journalism, I guess. I can't wait until I'm old and can
write columns for Newsweek like, "What's Up With Mustard?" and "Holo
Porn? It's 2D for Me."

title is
Open Source Audio and the story is one that I've been
trying to tell a number of folks -- and in particular, my non-geek
friends -- for a while now. The story begins with a snippet from a
1924 recording of Lonesome Road Blues from the
Internet Archive's
open source audio collection.
After brief discussions of the
Edison site at
the National Park Service, and the
Creative

recordings have been released to the Internet Archive, we hear
Brewster Kahle talking about his vision of universal storage and
access. I recorded his remarks during a talk he gave at the O'Reilly
