Watching TV while ___-ing
01/04/2005 11:39 AMNot only has Internet use cut into this country's sacred TV time, we
are not paying strict enough attention to the glowing screens in our
living rooms. BIGresearch reports (via Center for Media Research) that
a survey of 12,000+ "consumers" shows that we're doing more
multitasking while watching TV: # 66.3% regularly or occasionally read
the mail. # 60.1% regularly or occasionally go online. # 55.0%
regularly or occasionally read the newspaper. # 51.8% regularly or
occasionally read magazines. # 0.4% mentally undress Larry King
Please, America, let's focus! PS: I made up one of those
statistics....

Having caught up with the news after our holiday in a country that
had few TVs and even fewer western newspapers, I just don't know what
to say and will instead just share an adorable Saint Santa photo from the
breeders that they sent to us. I love the look of quiet indignation at
being made to wear the costume. :)

Watching Them Watching Us
08/04/2004 03:04 PMThe idea of
watching
back those who are watching us is not new. Every time it's
brought up, someone points to David Brin's
<
i>The Transparent Society. Now, Brin has written up a long
(and somewhat rambling) piece for Salon that points out, whether we
like it or not,
technology is forcing everyone to be more open. It's not a
question of whether the technology is good or bad, but how it's used.
His suggestion is that it's time to embrace the technology of
surveillance (and sousveillance) in order to make sure that it's used
properly. Simply trying to stop the rise of cameras, RFIDs and
closely connected databases is doomed to fail. And, even worse, by
fighting against it, many privacy advocates are making sure that these
things are set up so only "they" (governments, corporations, someone
who isn't you) have access -- leaving out any accountability. In a
world where people are freaking out over camera phones, RFIDs and
internet tapping, it's certainly an interesting read. Brin points out
that all of these technologies have benefits when used properly, and
even the negatives can be dealt with, if people really come up with
ways to embrace the technology, rather than just deny its existence
altogether.

01/11/2004 11:37 PMJay Rosen: Adopt a Campaign Journalist in 2004: The Drift of
a Suggestion:
Over the holidays, an idea
gained some Net traction: webloggers "adopting" a campaign reporter.
That means you monitor and collect all the reporter's work, and
then... And then what? Follow the turns as the suggestion is taken
up.
Check out the comments by Dan Gillmor, Jeff
Jarvis and many others. Interesting stuff. Dan's postback is Adopting Journalists: Friendly Advice and
Fact-Checking, or Antagonistic Truth Squads? His
gist:
I like the idea that people are watching
what I say and correcting me if I get things wrong -- or challenging
my conclusions, based on the same facts (or facts I hadn't know about
when I wrote the piece.) This is a piece of tomorrow's journalism, and
we in the business should welcome the feedback and assistance that, if
we do it right, becomes part of a larger
conversation.
But if the idea is to create some kind of
organized collection of Truth Squads, I'm less comfortable. Here are
just three of the many, many questions/issues that come immediately to
mind (and as you'll see, I'm not alone in wondering these
things):
I think there's another issue here:
one of class, or caste. As members of The Press his last week at
Macworld and CES, Dan and I belonged to an exclusive club, with its
own private rooms, free food, wi-fi Net connections, and other
freebies, not to mention special treatment by vendors. We're
insiders.
Yet many markets politics and technology are
just two include a growing number of outsiders with online
journals who are just as important to the market's ecosystem as
credentialed journalists. It's only natural, at this early stage in
our evolution to what Dan calls Journalism 3.0, for outsiders to play gotcha! with
insiders.

Now you can find out what torrents are available at Torrentz.com (via Robert
Scoble). Interesting thing is that, nstead of using
spiderbots, they are
using people as bots, meaning users register torrents streams they
either own or found.
Is it working? You bet.
What's available? Rips of all kinds including movies, porns,
music, toons, appz,
warez. For example, one of the most popular torrent is Adobe
Photoshop CS 8.0.
I am sure RIAA will be chasing those torrents soon if not already,
but I am not sure
if Torrentz.com itself is illegal or not.
There is a bit of drama behind the site too. Apparently, some
joker hacked the
site to steal the source code and setup his own site, TorrentReactor.net,
with minimal changes. The guy even admits he stole the
code. I guess he
thought stealing from someone who encourages theft is not really
stealing.
It's a dog eat dog world out there.

Buried in this story over at PCWorld on all the
unexpected gadgets that getting WiFi added to them, like a digital
camera from Sanyo and a handheld file server from Sony, is this: a new
DVD recorder from Matsushita that records television shows at 1.3
times faster than normal speed. Why? "That's slow enough to understand
what is going on but also cuts the time it takes to watch a TV show by
a quarter." Sounds crazy, but if you're a busy person, that'll skim
fifteen minutes off an hour-long show.
Here at Gizmodo we've got another trick for cramming more TV into
less time, though it only works with a TiVo or other digital video
recorder: turn on closed-captioning and watch the show on TiVo's
slowest fast-forward setting. The captions will still pop up, so you
won't miss what anyone's saying, but everything will happen in
double-speed, making it perfect for watching three episodes of Blind
Date in a half hour. And yes, we know how fucked up this is.
