Real Networks Discovers The Difficulty
Of Having An Open Forum
08/18/2004 06:32 AM

RealNetworks seemed to assume that everyone was on their side in their effort to get their downloadable songs onto iPods. They set up a page with an open comments section, officially for people to express their anger at Apple for refusing to license FairTunes. Instead, Real discovered that people can say whatever they want when you give them an open forum and they started bashing Real Networks instead. As you might expect, the open forums didn't last long -- though, expecting as much, some enterprising folks made sure to copy what was on the page before it disappeared.

The White Rabbit has beckoned us down the wrong rabbit hole. Much has been made about the open source revolution, and with good reason. The open source development model produces superior software. But, in my estimation, the real promise of open source lies not in open source, but rather in open distribution. Here's why ...

I have purchased a total of 3 songs from iTunes and probably a 100 from the Music Match network which I have loaded on my iPod was it difficult, not at all in my opinion. I just had to be smart. I like the idea of not having to go through hoops to move the music to the iPod so Real may get some of my business. But If I was a betting man I would wager that Apple's legal team will be trying to shut this down. [Corante] [Wired ] [eWeek] [ArsTechnic a]

Clearly, we don't have enough incompatible formats for music download stores, because Real Networks has decided they can make a real dent in the marketplace by offering yet another me-too music download store - but with increased copy protection that no one supports. Thus, you can download songs from Real, but you won't be able to play them on just about any digital music player right now. How does this benefit consumers? That part isn't clear.

Off to Sony Open Forum tomorrow


Off to Sony Open Forum tomorrow 01/10/2004 06:12 AM

I'm off again to the Sony Open Forum tomorrow. It's an annual event. The main event is Sony's sponsorship of a golf tournament, but there is also a small forum where Chairman Idei invites executives of Sony and several other people to discuss some of the key topics for the year. Last year I was invited to speak about the future of Japan. This year I'm going to be talking about media consumption and the future of media. My talk will kick off a discussion session. The conference itself is not public, but I'm assuming my comments are. I've put my talking notes on my wiki and Kevin Marks, Roger Wood and danah boyd have contributed some thoughts on a page about media consumption. The actual talk isn't for a few more days so any thoughts you might have would be greatly appreciated. Please add them to the wiki. Thanks!

Law Enforcement Says Open Wi-Fi Networks

Law Enforcement Says Open Wi-Fi Networks
Used for Crime
03/19/2005 02:24 AM

Criminals use Wi-Fi to hide their tracks: But not very always successfully. Some criminals aren't very bright and are using networks adjacent to where they live and having stolen goods shipped to them despite using other people's networks. Others are more clever and their use of random Wi-Fi networks prevents them being tracked down by law enforcement as they engage in death threats, fraud, and cracking.

The article also lumps together unsecured business and home networks with free Wi-Fi networks: "Ms. Hubert [the supervisory special agent in charge of the Cyber Task Force at the F.B.I. field office in Buffalo] says one group of hackers she has been tracking has regularly frequented a local chain of Wi-Fi-equipped tea and coffee shops to help cover its tracks."

I welcome this article because there has been a lot of speculative coverage before this as to whether Wi-Fi was being used in this manner. Now we have a number of agencies citing actual cases in progress or already in court.

The SBC number is a little odd, by the way: the spokesperson says that SBC has shipped one million Wi-Fi routers to its customers with encryption turned on. But I saw a number months ago that said that SBC had shipped nearly three million routers to customers (out of a population of five million DSL users at that time). Did two of the three million get shipped with encryption off?

Beyond Markets and Firms: The Emergence of Open Source Networks by Federico Iannacci and Eve Mitleton–Kelly
http://ww w.firstmonday.org/issues/issue10_5/iannacci/

Abstract By Author:
Although hierarchies and markets (i.e., autonomy) have been subject to extensive study, heterarchies represent different modalities of organizing that have been little researched. Drawing on complexity theory and the main features of complex evolving systems (CES), this paper sets out to remedy this imbalance by showing that heterarchies feature highly decentralized and relatively stable interactions which are coordinated through an emergent process of parametric adaptation. Implications in terms of learning are discussed casting a new light on the delicate issue of motivation in Open Source software development.

Recently I've been working on a project that might be of interest to other Advogato users: CIA, a system for tracking commit messages (and eventually other things) from any open source project. When new code is committed, the news instantly shows up on a web site, an RSS feed, and an IRC channel.

Unlike other similar projects that focus on bringing one project's commits to only its developers, CIA lets anyone see what development is happening right now, regardless of where or what for.

Pervasive 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]

XM Discovers The Internet


XM Discovers The Internet 09/15/2004 01:39 PM
Well, it took them quite a while, but it appears that the folks at XM Radio have finally realized that internet radio might be a bit of competition for them, and have decided to start offering an internet radio service themselves. They offer discounts to those who also subscribe to their satellite radio service, but you have to wonder if someone at XM Radio is slapping his or her head realizing here was a way to offer radio without having to spend so much initially on launching satellites, ensuring that the company won't make money for many, many years. In the meantime, it's worth noting that this is the same XM Radio that just pulled a receiver off the market because (gasp!) they realized people could record their stations to computers, and they were afraid that the RIAA would sue them. Apparently, the folks at XM Radio haven't heard of stream ripping for online radio stations. Update: As a few people have pointed out, this new service, more than fear over ripping, may explain why XM pulled the service that let people move the satellite service to their PCs. Again, though, this seems short-sighted. Why not give your customers as many options as possible?

Circuits Discovers USB


Circuits Discovers USB 06/10/2004 11:38 AM

10USB.cover.jpg imageReading The Times' Circuits section invariably causes a single metallic tear to vent from my society-integration hardware, wetting my dome. Sometimes it's from the cognitive trauma of trying to parse whether or not they're even talking about technology anymore or just repurposing old articles from the Steamer Tramp Watch column or something, but sometimes -- rare, precious times -- I get misty as I watch them discover something for the first time, as a retarded child waking from a coma would marvel at a flower, or toilet paper, fawning over and cuddling and gleefully showing the new technology to us. This week's blissful bursting into awareness? Motherfucking USB. Awwww. (Thanks to the Circuits team's case worker, Jeff.)
