Lost Revenue? Nope ... Just Lost

Lost Revenue? Nope ... Just Lost
Opportunities
04/15/2005 06:43 PMWhenever we hear about established industries whining about how much
money they're losing from alternative forms of media consumption, we
just shake our heads. If you do too, then brace your neck before
reading on. A new study by Accenture says that TV networks will
"lose" $27 billion in the coming
five years because of ad skipping by DVR users. Not being able to
read the full story on AdAge, we can only assume that Accenture thinks
advertisers will pull back from the networks to the tune of $5-plus
billion per year, simply because DVR watchers can skip ads. Not
likely. The connection is highly dubious and the figures are entirely
far-fetched. Yet even more troubling is the age-old "lost money"
methodology. Each ad skip does not proportionally diminish the
network's coffers -- no money is being subtracted from their bottom
line. Rather, any "losses" from ad skipping would come from the
network's inability to adapt to new trends and attract those dollars
elsewise. The networks are losing money to ad-skipping no more than
record companies are losing money to downloads. The quicker they see
these as lost opportunities, instead of lost dollars, the better for
them.

This do-it-yourself waterproof camera
enclosure is pretty involved, and isn't the sort of thing you'd want
to screw up, even a little, but if you're handy with the heat gun and
aren't afraid to get your handheld deburring tool with swiveling
cutter a little dirty, you can take pretty much any type of camera
you'd like into the drink. Of course, if they make an underwater
housing for your camera, it would probably just be easier to buy that,
and maybe a little more reliable. Also, just for the record, this will
work with your pet turtle Sub Captain Sandy, but only for about three
minutes or so.

Can You Patent Purchasing Underwater
Options?
Can You Patent Purchasing Underwater
Options?
01/05/2004 04:56 AMThe latest in bizarre patent applications is a business model patent
being applied for by JP Morgan for the
concept of buying underwater stock options. How is this
patentable? That's unclear, but the folks at JP Morgan think they've
hit onto something. They think that many companies trying to help
employees get rid of underwater options may sell them to Morgan -
following Microsoft's lead (where Microsoft let employees
switch
over from stock options to restricted stock). Of course, now that
the economy is starting to pick up again, companies (and their
employees) may be more interested in holding on to their options.
Either way, it doesn't explain how making a risky investment is
patentable. It's certainly not an original idea. I remember
discussing just such a business model with some people in 1998 - when
we knew a few people who had left jobs where their options were
underwater, and who had no interest in buying them. Of course, we
realized that the risk of buying underwater options on a regular basis
meant that it could be quite difficult to ever actually
make
any money - but the folks at JP Morgan are betting the market is
turning around and are hoping to buy up now before anyone realizes it.

Although calling it "underwater SMS" might be a
little misleading, the underwater diving computers recently purchased
by the Australian Navy from Nautronix sound extremely useful -- and
use sound to communicate. The Windows-based PCs use both GPS and sonar
to track the position of the divers and underwater object, and can
beam messages from one machine to another via acoustically powered
network, not unlike a telephone modem. The manufacturer has a wide
array of products designed to facilitate communication wireless
underwater, where radio waves are often soaked up and diffused by the
water.

A Running Robot Or A Rolling Robot?
A Running Robot Or A Rolling Robot?
12/18/2003 12:58 PMIt took years for researchers to figure out how to make a robot be
able to stand and walk on two legs. In fact, it's so complicated,
that some researchers are giving up on that idea and
using
Segway balancing technology on their robots instead of legs.
However, the folks at Sony seem to have taken the concept of the
upright walking robot one step further: they've figured out
how to make a
robot run. That's right, it actually leaves the ground at
points while jogging along. It apparently needs a bit of a walking
start to get up to speed, and even at running speed, it's more of a
slow jog - where it's feet barely leave the ground. Still, it's a
start, and with some more work, they believe they can really make the
robot run.

(Verdict: Awesome)
03/17/2005 03:51 AM
Wetpixel has a review of both
the Nikon D2X 12.4 MP camera and its Subal ND2 underwater housing. The
pictures produced by the camera are vibrant and incredibly
well-balanced, which you would expect for the $5,000 it costs. Still,
reviewer Dr. Alex Mustard says that if you don't need very large
output sizes for your shots, you can purchase a Nikon D70 for
considerably less that produces rather decent underwater shots. The
housing is designed very well and offers excellent ergonomics—an
important consideration when on a dive. Dr. Mustard muses "It costs
$5,000. And if you fill it up with water, it is worth $0," but goes on
to say "in a word, [the D2X] is awesome." Some gorgeous pics accompany
the review, so be sure to check them out. (Thanks, Eric!)
