Merging To Form Pervasive Networks in
Homes and Offices, Says INSIGHT Research
12/22/2004 01:46 AMPervasive networks—a ubiquitous “fabric” of computing, information,
entertainment, and telemetry capability tied together by high-speed
wired and wireless networks—are emerging from a flurry of new
communication technologies now being used in home and office networks.
Though communications carriers do not offer this type of continuous
communication as a service today, the piece parts are already in
place. [PRWEB Dec 20, 2004]

How Many Social Networks Is Too Many?
11/14/2003 02:29 AMI keep reading about all these "social networking software" plays, and
the amazing thing to me is that, unlike during the last bubble,
everyone except people working for these companies
or
venture capitalists seem to know it's a bubble. Yet, they keep on
coming. The latest is that
Evite has launched their own version of Friendster
tied to their event organizing system, and eMode (known for their fun
tests and dating system) has changed their name to Tickle, which is
what their Friendster wannabe is called. They also bought another
social networking service, to take one of about 100 off the market.
Who the hell signs up for all of these systems?
Paten
ts aside, there is
nothing complicated in creating such a
site (there's even one Friendster rip off
called Yet Another Friendster Rip Off). The
complication comes in actually making money from such a site. The odd
thing, though, is the rampant skepticism about these sites. In the
90s bubble years, it was never like this. Sure, there was some
skepticism, but not the near universal skepticism that is focused on
social software space right now. What's funny is that you would think
so much skepticism would make the VCs stay away, but the reverse is
happening.

Look Out Airport Networks...
11/18/2003 09:04 PMJetBlue Airways is offering free Wi-Fi to folks hanging out in its
departure gates in Terminal 6 in New York's JFK Airport: The airline
also offers the free Wi-Fi in its hub, the LA/Long Beach airport. If
more airlines start doing this, it will be interesting to watch what
happens to the companies that are already offering fee-based services
in airports. That seems to be a big business, with hotspot providers
signing exclusive deals with airports. I wonder what sort of rights
airlines have to build Wi-Fi networks in the gates they often use.
Glenn has heard from some folks in the industry that airports are
starting to assert rights to spectrum that they previously left alone,
or encoding these rights in new contracts as airline leases expire....

How to Pay for Municipal Networks
How to Pay for Municipal Networks
09/21/2004 02:46 PMSome municipalities may have already learned some lessons about
offering telecom services that they can consider when deciding to
build Wi-Fi networks: Some of the most successful municipal offerings
of wired telecom services started out with small trial networks and
were offered by municipalities that already offer utility services to
customers. But beyond whether a municipality has experience with
billing and marketing a service, Wi-Fi presents a bunch of additional
uncertainties. In the wired example, in many cases the market doesn't
have any other option for broadband Internet access and customers
definitely pay for the access. In the case of Wi-Fi, in many cases
other service providers may already offer wireless access. Plus,
cities have to decide whether they want to offer access for free or
for a fee. If they want to deliver free networks, they have to decide
how to fund it, considering both the initial outlay and ongoing
support costs. Ultimately, citizens of communities may end up
deciding. In St. Cloud, Fla., the city is trying to decide how to pay
for the ongoing maintenance of the network and will likely ask
residents to decide on a ballot referendum. If municipalities decide
to ask residents to pay for access, they have to hope they can cover
their costs. At this stage in the market, based on the experiences of
commercial Wi-Fi providers, it's not clear that an operator can make
money from for-fee networks....

batteries too quickly. Still, it's a big step forward for the space,
meaning we should expect plenty of gushing news stories about the
technology in the near future.

After years of stories about problems with WiFi security, you would
think that corporate IT staff would realize that they need to properly
secure their WiFi networks. It doesn't take that much work to make it
pretty difficult for someone to break into a wireless network.
However,
80%
of networks at companies tested around the world apparently showed no
security. Many of the companies tested were large multi-national
companies and banks, and they were just as bad at not protecting their
networks. The numbers sound quite high, but if they're true, IT
staffers deserve to be fired. Still, I'm a bit skeptical of the
numbers, since they are from a "wireless security company" who has
incentive to pump up the numbers.

Can A University Ban WiFi Networks?
09/09/2004 11:16 AMSlashdot is running a story about The University of Texas at Dallas
banning
independent WiFi networks to avoid interference with the
university-run WiFi network. There's just one (big) problem. The FCC
has made it clear that
only they
have the right to regulate unlicensed spectrum. That was the
point of the ruling they made just a few months ago telling airports
they can't stop anyone from setting up WiFi networks within the
airport. At the same time, though, this does demonstrate some of the
issues with unlicensed spectrum. As great as it's been for generating
massive growth for things like WiFi, interference is still a problem
-- and one that not enough people have paid attention to.

igade makes a case for video aggregators. It is already here
in the form of RSS enclosures (I still get lots of video and audio
clips from
Adam Curry delivered
automatically to a folder on my desktop). However, not everyone
has the bucks like Adam to pay the hosting costs this
entails. What is needed is a P2P system that hooks into
aggregators and weblog tools.
This is, of course, something that I have been an advocate of for
years and years. It just hasn't made it fruition yet.
However, with video phones just around the corner, the time is ripe
for some movement in this direction. What is needed to get this
moving:
- A P2P system like Onion
Networks that generates unique file names for all files on the
system and content check to ensure there isn't any corruption of the
file on the network. Like Onion, this system needs to be
viewable by all active participants on the network (systems like
KaZaA and Morpheus only show you a small portion of the network,
which in turn requires up to ~40,000 copies on the network
in order to be seen by everyone). If a file is seen by all
network participants, the publisher gets immediate help on bandwidth
costs when the first person downloads the file to their
system.
- The P2P system should generate a unique code for
each file placed in a folder on a weblog publishers desktop.This code
could be cut and pasted into a weblog post. When a reader clicks
the post, they are requested to download an RSS aggregator to
view the content.
- An RSS aggregator with connections with desktop P2P
software. Additional control, provided the aggregator software,
would let you determine when you wanted it downloaded (now or
later). You would also have the option of downloading it as part
of your RSS feed if you trust that person.
The end-user experience should be as simple and subscribing
to an RSS feed and setting the preferences for that feed
(enclosures or no enclosures). Alternatively, if an end-user (reader)
clicks on a link to a P2Ped video file published on a weblog they
aren't subscribed to, a windlet would pop up to ask them to download
some aggregator software -- or -- if they have it already it would ask
them whether they wanted to dowload it now or later.
The end result would be a system that scales (to millions of
users), is inexpensive to operate (which means almost anyone could do
it with a DSL connection), and is fast (since downloads can come
from multiple sources with the same file). It would allow us to
move to a world where publishing a news channel is as simple as taking
the video and putting it into your weblog. Raw video news all
the time. I wish someone had the cohones to put this
together.
NOTE: If Dean had only spent $100k of his money on putting the
parts (the software is already there -- all we need is a
high viz demo) together on a system like this, he would have a way to
truly put the screws to big media.
