Planet Sun


Planet Sun 04/21/2004 10:39 PM
Several people have pointed to Planet Sun, a rather good aggregation of all the known Sun bloggers. It’s done by David Edmondson, whose own uncollected thoughts is well worth visiting. Also worthy of note in recent days is Mike Duigou on Complexity, which totally captures the mental pain consequent on confronting a big new hairy URI. (But that whole Java.net space is organized in a weird way that I don’t quite get; hmm...). Also, Planet Sun is a clever name... for the next such project how about Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun? [For the under-40s, that’s a druggie-Sixties-music reference -Ed. (Yeah, but a great tune! -Tim)]

The Intimate Planet


The Intimate Planet 02/01/2005 09:55 PM
As usual, I'm writing this in the sky, flying from New York City to Rio de Janeiro this time. Below me, Amazonia is waking to first light. Only three days ago, I flew from London to New York. It has become so routine for me to dash across half the planet that it feels a bit like commuting. Or taking some kind of rapid horizontal elevator. While I haven't entirely lost my sense that such mobility is a miracle, most people take for granted that about 95% of the earth's locations are, at most, a day a half away from them. Now we measure distance in money not time. The rigors of the road, so daunting even 75 years ago, are less an obstacle than the cost of the ticket. Marco Polo would be stunned. As with most miracles, the functional elimination of distance became invisible to us almost as soon as it happened. The planet shrank by several orders of magnitude and most of us adapted at once. But I had an experience - or rather, two experiences - the night I arrived from London which made it seem that the earth had shrunk to a point of global intimacy. Indeed, they felt like that first mystical moment the Internet provided me many years ago, when I realized that I could type "telnet" at a terminal prompt and cause any number of hard disks to spin all over the world. In any event, I was sitting at my desk in New York on Wednesday night, writing a BarlowSpam, when Skype started to emit the old-fashioned bell tone that signals a request for a voice chat. I looked at the window associated with the request and saw a bunch of Chinese pictograms where the name should be. Some kind of Asian chatspam, I figured, and I ignored it. A few minutes later, it rang again. The name of the caller was "Kitty11_3". There was also a text chat box on the screen, also from kitty11_3 which read, "I need a friend." I was skeptical. I figured that "Kitty," or whomever, was probably looking for "friends" to come see her "relax" in her web-cam equipped "bedroom." But I took the call. A delicate Asian-sounding voice came from someplace in Cyberspace. "Will you talk to me?" she said. "Why?" "I want to practice my English." "Why me?" "Because your name is John. I think that anybody named John speaks English." I remained skeptical, but further conversation convinced me that she was telling the truth. She really had no idea who or where I was and had plucked me at random from all the Skype users named John. Kitty11_3 turned out to be a 22 year old girl from Hanoi, who, like her father, works for the state-owned oil company. She had managed to get five of her neighbors in the Hanoi suburb where she lives to go in on a DSL line and WiFi which she had set up herself. Her boyfriend is off in Korea getting a master's degree in telecommunications. She has three sisters, and her real name is Vu My Dung. Here is a picture of her family (at her eldest sister's wedding.): She's the one in red on the right. We talked for a long time, in voice, text, photographs, and URLs. I sent her to my home page, so that she could find out more about me. Then I helped her set up an account on Tribe.net, so that people could find out more about her. She sent me a picture of her boyfriend and the dreams they made together. Her spoken English did indeed need practice, but she wrote English with correct lucidity. We talked a lot about politics and economics in Viet Nam. She said she made the equivalent of about 100 dollars a month, that her family was very poor but middle-class by Vietnamese standards, and that they love each other so much that they feel very lucky anyway. Her father had been in the army, making me think that, had things gone a different way, I might have been put in a position to kill him, thus eliminating the possibility of this conversation. I reflected that there are some who visit this blog who even now would think me cowardly and unpatriotic for having refused to be put in that position. Toward the end of this conversation, I got another invitation to converse from the mystery person with the Chinese ideograms for a name. This time they were accompanied by a text chat box referring to its initiator as "Christine". I answered in text, while continuing my conversation with "Kitty." As soon as Kitty and I signed off, I "rang" "Christine." She was, believe it or not, also a twenty two year old from Asia who wanted to practice English. My suspicion that this might be some kind of a scam had dissipated with getting to know Vu My. Still, I began to think my name might be on some list of easily-distracted English speakers, possibly with a penchant for young Asian women, but they both swore to me that there was no such list and that they had parachuted onto my desktop entirely at random. I believe them. They both seem utterly without guile, and they gave every evidence of being genuinely surprised at what their random troll through Skype's waters had fetched up. Christine is Christine Zhang, a business student in university in Shenzhen,Guangdong Province, just north of Hong Kong. Christine speaks extraordinarily clear English, though her writing needs some practice. (I suspect that Vu My has an advantage with writing in that her language is phonetic.) We went through the same rapid process of getting to know each other. She told me that she dreams to go to Harvard Business School, which she thought was a long shot for someone from a provincial Chinese university. It didn't seem so ridiculous to me. She is obviously very smart and possesses...

Planet of the Anklebiters

Otava on sofa

« Otava curled up on the couch and looking adorable at six months. »

Since the weather was abnormally lovely over the weekend we spent most of it outdoors with Otava. On Saturday, we were taking a rest on a bench in the woods when a pair of small dogs walked by and, of course, started growling at Otava. After a few hilarious minutes of growling on one side and bewilderment on the other, the micro-dogs trotted on. After they had gone I chuckled for a few minutes as it hit me that George Lucas had seen this dog when he thought, "Aha! That's what an Ewok should look like!" I always wondered why the Ewoks growl in the movies and now I know. The Ewoks are just small dogs who are still short and annoying even on two legs. Gee, talk about a planet best avoided. Planet of the Anklebiters.

Sunday we went down to the rocks, a.k.a 'beach', on Suomenlinna and there were quite a few swans floating around near to the shore. Otava somehow got the bright idea that he should try and catch one of them. He stood watching them from a rock for a while and then dove to the next rock in hopes of getting closer to his desire. When he pulled himself up, the male swan arched his neck and hissed menacingly towards Otava even though it was far enough away to feel safe from this amateur canine. We were very amused but Otava sulked for most of the rest of the afternoon. I'm hoping that the pictures I took of him and the swan turn out well as it really was pretty funny. :)

Annotating the planet


Annotating the planet 03/14/2005 05:45 PM
When I finished making the interactive version of my neighborhood tour, along with a screencast, it was clear that Google Maps is every bit as revolutionary as my first instincts told me. Not because Google invented a new geospatial engine or compiled better data. They didn't. But simply -- and yet profoundly -- because Google Maps is a framework we can all use to annotate the physical world.

In the very near future, billions of people will be roaming the planet with GPS devices. Clouds of network connectivity are forming over our major cities and will inevitably coalesce. The geoaware Web isn't a product we buy; it's an environment we colonize. There will always be markets for proprietary data. But the real action will be in empowering people to create their own services, with their own data, for their friends, family, and business associates. Google Maps isn't just a service, it's a service factory.

Radical openness is the key. It's been only two weeks since it launched and already the colonization has begun. Thanks to open XML data formats and open Web programming interfaces, people have figured out how to animate routes, create custom routes with their own GPS data, and display GPS data in real time.

Microsoft could have enabled these same kinds of things years ago. Its TerraServer has been up and running since 1998. But despite Steve Ballmer's infamous monkey-dance chant, developers haven't flocked to TerraServer. What's Google's secret? Web DNA and no Windows tax. [Full story at InfoWorld.com]

Album Graphics, Title, Song titles and a lot more information. Who is the savior that came up with this technology. Well a Wired article today takes a look at Gracenote the company behind CDDB.
