that it might eliminate its Pontiac and Buick brands, Vice Chairman
Bob Lutz took his case directly to dealers and customers who were up
in arms about the possibility. He wrote about it on the company's
blog.

07/07/2004 12:44 PMWhile Microsoft and Sony seem to be betting big dollars on the rise of
online gaming from their console systems, Nintendo seems to think
they're throwing money away. Nintendo president Satoru Iwata was
quoted as saying,
"cust
omers do not want online games." While I've been a bit skeptical
about the space in the past, the
growing
success of things like Xbox Live suggests that I (and Satoru
Iwata) may have written off the space way too quickly. In my defense,
my thoughts on the matter came before broadband was so common and
before there was any evidence either way. I still don't think all
games will go online, but there very clearly is a large and growing
market for console-based online games -- and to completely deny that
with all of the existing evidence suggests Nintendo has their head in
the sand.

Entering CasualSpace...
01/07/2004 02:12 PMI just had another transforming telecommunications experience. Again,
Joi Ito was involved. Joi and I were typing at each other over the Net
using Apple's iChat AV. I've never liked Internet chat. I don't like
having to type that fast. So, at a certain point, I asked him whether
he'd used the audio capacities that are built into iChat AV. I hadn't.
A moment later we were conversing by voice through our computers.
Despite the fact that Joi is presently in his country house outside of
Tokyo and I'm at my condo in Salt Lake, it sounded like he was in the
room with me. There was no discernible latency or loss of fidelity.
For awhile, we talked as though we were on the phone, and I marveled
at being able to conduct a zero-cost trans-Pacific call. (Of course,
there's nothing particularly new about voice over IP. But it's never
been so stupidly easy to set up, in my personal experience, as it is
with iChat AV. Also, it never sounded this good before.) The really
interesting shift occurred as we drifted back to what we'd been doing
before we started chatting, leaving the audio channel open as we'd did
so. We could hear each other typing. One of my daughters entered the
room and spoke to me. Joi heard her and said hello. They had a brief
conversation, their first since she was a little girl. Joi and I
returned our e-mail. I wanted to set up an account on Technorati and
broke in to ask him how to do it. He walked me through the process.
There were other occasional interjections. I could hear the sounds of
construction going on in his house. For a long time, it was as though
we were working in the same room, each of us alone with his endeavors
and yet... together. Though half a world away. This feels significant
to me. Even over shorter distances, people rarely think of phone calls
as being so casually cheap that one would simply leave the connection
open for ambient telepresence and occasional conversation. To create
shared spaces that span the planet, and to do so whenever you feel
like it, and to leave them unpurposefully in place for hours, is not
something people have done very often before. The next step is to make
those shared spaces larger, so that multiple people can inhabit the
same auditory zone, entering and leaving it as though it were a coffee
house. This will change the way people live. Big deal, you think. You
can do this with conference calls now. But you don't. Conference calls
are expensive and unstable. The sound quality usually sucks if you're
using a speaker phone. I think this is different. It certainly felt
different to me. I had the same shiver of the New that I got years ago
the first time I ever used telnet and realized that I could get a hard
disks to spin in any number of computers thousands of miles away just
by entering a few keystrokes. Eventually, Joi had to leave to attend
to other business his distant part of Meatspace. We collapsed our huge
virtual room into nothing. I went out on my balcony. In the snowy
garden below, I watched a deer chase a huge raccoon into the
bushes....

Following up on last week's post about the Sri Lankan sensation who
plays bongo with her lingo, Boing
Boing reader Pablos says: "
M.I.A.
was scheduled to perform at Chop Suey in Seattle tonight. Apparently
she is having some kind of Visa trouble and her show has been
cancelled. "
Some speculate the incident may relate to her father's affiliation
with a Sri Lankan rebel group designated as a terrorist organization
by the US. No news on her site or newsfeeds yet, but she's also
scheduled to play at SXSW this
week.

Entering credit card numbers
Entering credit card numbers
02/10/2004 02:44 PMBruce Tognazzini writes in his Ask Tog column Top 10 Reasons to Not
Shop On Line: "...Why can’t I input my credit card number the way it
appears on the card? Why do I have to suck the extra spaces out,
making it all but impossible to re-scan it for errors? We’re talking
three spaces here, three bytes." (via Usability Views) I will quite
often try to see if a credit card number field gives me enough room to
enter it with spaces. If it does, I will then delete the spaces
because I know so many places can't handle them. Any of you web
programmers out there, tell me you couldn't write code to strip three
spaces out of a credit card number? We're talking regular expressions
101 here. In a similar vein, I once asked a programmer I was working
with to allow social security numbers to accept both no spaces or
hyphens, and they told me the code to take hyphens out was easier than
the code insisting the user enter it without hyphens....
Commercial bl0gs entering Finland
Commercial bl0gs entering Finland
04/08/2005 06:39 PMMy my, what an interesting week this has been: First,
Blogilista goes
commercial, and now
Pirkka-magazine has launched a number
of commercial blogs. The Finnish blogosphere reacts
with violent distrust and
confusion.
I see no problem. These are clearly blogs, simply because th
e only meaningful definition for the world blog is based on form,
not content. They're not lying about their affiliation. They publish
polished content. In fact, I find it wonderful that a media publisher
dares to go and try and embrace the new media. They even publish Atom
feeds for all blogs! Way!
However, entering the blogosphere may be more difficult than just
dumping Movabletype on your magazine web site: people will look
at these blogs. They will discuss. They will find crap
on them (if there's any). They will write about it. And it's
difficult to ignore them, if you want to keep your credibility. Other
bloggers will call your bullshit - and very likely, someone in that
bunch is at least equal in writing skills and more knowledgeable on
the subject than you. And they know it.
Now the question is how much integrity Pirkka wants to have: do
they just want to publish news articles in a blog format - or do they
really want to go full out and really try to embrace the dialogue that
comes with the format?
You see, whatever else blogs may be, they work best as a
personal media. You need to let people write with their own
voice, not just copying material from others - even if you have all
the rights to do so. It's the power and bane of the format; a
personal touch creates reader loyalty, but it also means that you
have to get involved in your writing - "laittaa itsensä
likoon", as the Finns say. And that is not easy.
Welcome to the crowd! I'm happy you're here, anyway. People will
grumble, but there's always room for one more in the jacuzzi.
(A quick hint to Pirkka writers: Read http://www.corporateblogging
.info/, and Scoble's Corporat
e Blogging Manifesto. Understand. Internalize. And stop posting
articles from one person under the name of another... That simply takes
away credibility from the author.)
(And a quick other hint to people who complain about these being on
blogilista.fi: get
a clue. Really. Would you stop using a phone book simply because it
contains company phone numbers, or stop using Google because it's
*gasp* a profit-making company? That's exactly what Blogilista.fi is
- an index of blogs, nothing more. It ain't your personal
blogospheric community where people live happily and go to the woods
to get undressed and hug each other in a blogoslavic überbliss. If
you don't like the direction they're taking, learn to use RSS and site feeds,
and make your own personal bloglist.
Blogging in Finland is finally growing up. The hype around
blogging will cease in a year or two, and hopefully we then can better
understand what the media is and what one can do with it. And then we
can get back to the really important thing: writing. Writing about
your dog, or your political views, or celebrity divorces, or company
products, or food, or your sex life, or whatever pleases you. Some
bloggers will gain prestige; some bloggers will become influential;
some bloggers will make many people laugh; some bloggers will make
many people weep. Some will be completely ignored. Most will just
for

Department of Homeland Security Prevents

09/25/2004 11:32 AMAs we all know, since September 11, 2001 the U.S. has been much more
vigilant in defending itself against terrorist attacks. In
addition to bombing the shit out of the Middle East, we have also
established the Department of Homeland Security whose responsibility
it is to defend us from terrorists. They have so far done a stellar
job, as the U.S. has yet to be hit by another terrorist attack.
But the ever-vigilant Department of Homeland Security is not
resting on its laurels. Recently, they prevented the terrorist
supporter Yusef Islam from entering the United States.
