Wi-Fi Networking News's New Look

Wi-Fi Networking News's New Look 11/01/2003 12:55 PM
Welcome to our partnership with JIWIRE: If you're a previous visitor to Wi-Fi Networking News, you'll notice some changes today in our banner, the left navigation bar, and our site's coloring. We've partnered with JIWIRE, an editorial operation that combines a great hot-spot directory with a terrific editorial approach to teaching how to most effectively use Wi-Fi in specific and wireless in general. (That last part is self promotion: I helped plan the editorial mission and calendar over the last three months, and act as senior editor for JIWIRE: writing, planning, and working with freelance contributors.) Our partnership with JIWIRE doesn't change anything editorially: we're still an independent organization, and Nancy Gohring and myself will continue to report in the fashion we have over the life of this site. JIWIRE will be handling the advertising sales for this site, however, and our connection back and forth should help us both reach more people. We link to their hotspot directory (see at upper left) and they link to our headlines. JIWIRE has also begun its real editorial cycle starting today. If you visit their home page you'll see links to five regular daily themes: Wi-Fi, Hotspots, Cellular, Road Warrior, and Gadgets. Each of these themes is handled by a dedicated bloggers (with excellent credentials): Nancy Gohring (WNN, NY Times, InfoWorld), Mike Masnick (TechDirt, consultant), Brian Jepson (O'Reilly, book author), Paul Boutin (Slate, Wired), and Agen Schmitz (formerly of Amazon.com), respectively. The idea of this section of the site was to provide timely and interesting items about subjects that appeal to a wireless audience, but without the formality and depth of a full-length feature. I'm looking forward to working closely with JIWIRE on both sides of the fence: as an editor with them and as a partner on the news site. It's a great complementary combination, and I welcome your feedback!...

New Take on Mesh Networking

New Take on Mesh Networking 11/10/2003 10:54 PM
A company called PacketHop is working on a mesh technology that routes packets among clients: Instead of routing traffic from one AP to the next, it routes from one user device to the next. The technology is designed to allow users to access a network from farther away from an AP. It looks like PacketHop is announcing that it acquired some patents from SRI International which has already done some development of a product. It's not clear when this product will be available. (FireTide has also licensed SRI patents for its products, which include a few mesh-like attributes.)...

Trusted Networking?

Trusted Networking? 05/11/2004 03:16 PM
Last week we wrote about how the idea of compl y and connect security was beginning to get more attention than the traditional "scan and block" method, which has been shown to be too reactive. At the time, we suggested a hybrid approach would make more sense. Furthering this point, the unfortunately named Trusted Computing Group is working on a standa rd for establishing security policies for a "comply and connect" system. This way, anyone can set the rules and they can be used across different vendors. The companies involved are all quite impressive, but it does seem like they're all heavily invested in this area already - meaning that the solution is likely to have compromises and be more focused on protecting business models than actually solving some of the bigger issues concerning stopping malicious attacks and files.

Get Yer Social Networking Here

Get Yer Social Networking Here 01/24/2004 09:30 PM
Sometime in December, somebody flipped a big switch and all of a sudden everyone was inviting me to join their Linkedin network. Then suddenly last week the Kozmick Finger pointed at Orkut, and near as I can tell, all the geeks on the planet have spent this weekend busily inviting each other to be Orkut pals. It all seems mostly harmless; mind you, I haven’t actually got any use out of either of ’em. For what it’s worth, all the Orkutians seem to be heavy geeks, while about half the Linkedincrowd is VCs and businesspeople. I don’t think it’s gonna change the world, but I’ve been wrong before. To those whose invitations I’ve declined: sorry, nothing personal, it’s just that I feel I ought to either have spent some face-to-face time with you or been in some substantial online interaction.

social networking as a web service

social networking as a web service 01/27/2004 02:23 AM

These folks totally groks it..... (their names are Grant and Cyndie Berg.)

back and forth over the social portal play. Zawodny on the point missed: Stokes misses it not just once , but twic e.

Om nearl y follows him off the "they just want my rolodex and why should I give it to them" cliff, but veers at the last instant and manages to strike a glancing blow at a worthy target by alluding to social networking services embedded in client applications -- and spawns some interesting comments. Marc Canter's beating the FOAF drum again. I'm looking forward to peopleaggregator's next rev. Sifry's apparently working on FOAFing up Technorati, too. It isn't an accident that Sifry's tagline is web services for bloggers.

Anyway... back on topic...

Look, Friendster didn't get $10m solely on the basis of its current business model. It sure as shit didn't get it on the basis of its software / infrastructure [and I hope they're spending some of that money on some engineers].

They got it because, as Jon Udell and others have pointed out (can't find link -- may be misattributing), user-contributed data is a valid currency for the next generation of online [web] service[s] businesses. And anyone who can succeed at being a primary conduit for user contributed data which has bearing on purchase decisions and product / technology adoption/popularity has a great opportunity.

What Stokes seemed to miss, which Jeremy alluded to initially and Marc re-iterates from another vector:


"The place to make the money is by adding value added, functionality, tools, services - what have - AROUND these most basic of all instinctful notions. Not by charging for the right to do them - in the first place!

So a PeopleFinder or FriendRanking or Introduction manager or Private email or IM enabler kind of platform - would be augmented with value added tools - to become a new business model. This what I mean by 'new kinds of tools."


... is that web services technologies are going to enable a Friendster, an Amazon, and a Google to operate in a unified manner delivering synergistic services to groups of connected (define it any way you want) people with shared interests.

This is what people are hopping up and down about, and I think there's some solid cause [lineofsight - code + words + pictures]

I'm feeling all warm and fuzzy.  2004 is looking to be pretty interesting.

Social Networking Hangover

Social Networking Hangover 02/10/2004 02:41 AM
As many, many people have predicted, there's a point at which all of these social networking services become... kind of pointless. Everyone piles in, and "connects" with anyone they've ever emailed and then you get the big "um... what do we do now?" question. It appears that despite the early rush into sites like Friendster, the fad is losing steam, just as it did five years ago with sixdegrees.com. It's cool for a few months, and then you realize there's nothing else to do. The various services are desperately trying to add on features that will bring back users and keep them engaged, but it turns out that the thing that seems to attract most people to these sites is the signing up and linking part - and after that, there's not much interest. The article includes the interesting stat that, despite five million registered users, Friendster received less than 1 million unique visitors in December.

Decentralised social networking

Decentralised social networking 01/05/2004 10:24 PM

I know I'm late to the party, but my recent experiments with LinkedIn and Friendster have got me all interested in the potential of software that bulids on top of people's own social networks. There's just one thing that's been bugging me, best explained by this quote from Om Malik:

The question I have is: why the F**K should I share my network of contacts with these commercial entities. They are like BlogSpot that does nothing for my brand equity and in many ways chews me out after making the network connections. Thus what I want is a "MoveableType" of social networking. Blogs took off because it was about one person - me. My social networks should be of my making for me. Lets figure out a way to cut out the middlemen.

Via John Battelle, here's the answer: Plink, a social search engine which uses information crawled from decentralised FOAF files. It's nicely put together and could be just the incentive I need to finally put together my own FOAF file.

Plink is also a nice example of the kind of thing the semantic web hopes to offer. People provide information in easily parsed formats, then others bulid third party applications on top of them that may never have been envisaged by the creators of the original standards. Feedster is another great example of this effect in action.

Analyzing traffic since the start of extensive tracking of this site shows that readers like knowing about security flaws, improvements: It's a slow news day, and I've been looking at traffic analysis of Wi-Fi Networking News to see what our top stories have been since we started using Omniture reporting last fall. Over the last 10 months, trends are clear, driven by Slashdot and other sites that refer traffic: the most popular single stories on the site focus on security -- six out of 10 stories. Two were about Wi-Fi detectors, and the other two on unrelated topics. As security remains a hot issue in the industry in general, you can expect that we'll continue to follow it. The top 10 stories of the last 10 months are: Weakness in Passphrase Choice in WPA Interface: Not one of our own stories, but a paper by Robert Moskowitz. Wi-Fi Seeker review The Path to 802.11i: My explanation of the roadmap to reaching full 802.11i encryption/authentication/integrity deployment.

The next big thing in online social networking.

According to Reuters Social networking sites, which look to introduce friends of friends or people with common interests, have grabbed the attention of Internet users and venture capitalists but many are still looking for ways to make money.

Online dating siteTickle ( >2million profiles) launched a People Search service on its network that includes AskJeeves' . The partnership fuses the uncertain social networking phenomenon with a search model that has proven invaluable to both consumers and marketers on the public Internet.

Kolabora news expert Scott Allen blogs in his Social Networking News: According to Tickle CEO James Currier, “Search is a natural way for online social networking to move forward”. (..) "Tickle people search brings online search full circle, back to letting us find the right people to talk to.”

Reuters press release (April 22)

[Smart Mobs]

I'm certainly in favor of putting social networking into context - but search is not a context.  It's sort of like getting it backwards.

It's not about bringing search to social networking.  It's about bringing social networking to everything.
