David Strom of Internet Week gives his thoughts on social networking. Not to be confused with “social engineering”, social networking is using services like Friendster or even online contact management solutions that are commonly used now days. On the surface, it seems like a great idea, right? A new way to “expand your friends network” so to speak. Still, I wonder how safe it really is and do you want to be associated with strangers…

Forget Drugs, Now Kids Are Stealing To
Support Their Mobile Phone Habit


Forget Drugs, Now Kids Are Stealing To
Support Their Mobile Phone Habit
08/05/2004 03:50 AM
We've had plenty of stories in the past about how stealing mobile phones was a popular crime, but how about stealing other stuff to pay for mobile phone service? A group of kids in Australia went around on a crime spree that netted approximately $300,000. When asked why they did it, the kids claimed it was to pay their mobile phone bills. Reading that, makes me think they just said that as an excuse. Who needs that much money to pay a mobile phone bill (er... other than Joi Ito)? However, the judge in the case has decided that this must be the new trend: kids are going to start stealing to support their mobile phone habit. Of course, he admits it's the first time he's heard of it, but he finds the idea so compelling that he's just sure it's going to be a trend, and that he'll soon be seeing these mobile phone addicted juveniles coming into court on a daily basis, rather than the typical dope addicts. Maybe he should wait for a bit more evidence.

Get No Kicks on Route66


Get No Kicks on Route66 05/31/2004 11:36 PM

Route Finder Software Uses Power of Latest Phones

"Privately-held Dutch firm Route66, one of Europe's biggest sellers of CD-ROM-based car navigation kits for use on personal computers, said it would sell road maps of an entire country and the necessary navigation software on a tiny memory card that can be inserted into the latest advanced phones, reports Reuters....

As part of the 399-euro package, which includes a satellite positioning module, users can opt to receive free traffic information, which the route finder can use to avoid busy areas. " [textually.org]

I'm guessing that the license on these things would exclude libraries from circulating them, let alone the Digital Rights Managment (otherwise known as "no digital rights for you!").

Scoble kicks RSS ass?


Scoble kicks RSS ass? 09/12/2004 05:17 AM

Yesterday I wrote about how Seattle is kicking my ass, now it's time to debunk Scoble's gross condemnation of RSS.

On Wednesay he posted that MSDN was limiting its RSS feed, dropping full text, because they were serving terabytes through RSS, and weren't happy with the economics.

Either Scoble didn't explain or I wasn't paying attention, because they were doing something very strange< /a>: aggregating all their blogs into one feed. They have thousands of blogs. In any hour the chances that one or more blogs changed is near 100 percent. And the feed is huge, every time you load it, you're downloading a lot of blog posts you don't care about.

The solution is simple, and it follows the grain of the Web, follows the intent of micro-publishing, and it's the way every other blogging community works -- simply offer a feed for every blog. That takes care of everything. It's just wrong to turn a community of weblogs into one giant Usenet group or Yahoo mail list.

So why does Scoble blame RSS? He's got the journalist's impulse for sensationalism and he can't say Microsoft is broken or they'd fire him. ";->"


Seattle kicks my ass


Seattle kicks my ass 09/11/2004 09:17 AM

I know it's the anniversary of 9-11, and Hurricane Ivan is pounding Jamaica, gearing up for Cuba, and destined for Florida; but...

Last night driving back from a dinner party in Green Lake, I got my first taste of heavy Seattle rain. It was especially demoralizing, because 8 times out of 10 when I'm driving here, I'm lost.

The other day I set out for an eastside Barnes & Noble hoping to buy a detailed map of the Seattle area so I could study it. I ended up 20 miles from my target, or so it seemed, until I turned a corner and found I was at the intersection of 522 and 405, which is where I started the search. Ouch.

No city has kicked my butt as thoroughly as Seattle has. I expected to get lost in Boston when I was a newbie, but Seattle? Come on, the streets are a grid. Hah. No they're not, it just seems that way.

Anyway, it really rained last night. I sobbed as the traffic on I-5 passed me at high speed while I was going 40 MPH, gripping the steering wheel for dear life as my car almost hydroplaned 18 times. I made it back okay, glad to be in bed as the the rain came down.

So far Seattle kicks my ass. Mostly in a good way, but on its own terms, no matter what.
