The First Rule Of The Olympics: You
Can't Talk About The Olympics

The First Rule Of The Olympics: You
Can't Talk About The Olympics 08/20/2004 02:25 AM
We've already talked about how the Olympics forced certain radio stations to pull their internet streams because they weren't approved for internet broadcasts of the Olympics, and now comes the news that no athletes participating in the games are allowed to talk about their experiences on websites. Considering the number of empty seats (and the weak television coverage), giving the games a more personal feel, letting the athletes talk for themselves (rather than those sappy profiles on TV) would help people to connect more with the games. That, though, would involve remembering that the games are actually about what happens in the events, and not how much the Olympics can squeeze out of sponsors. Haven't they figured out yet, that if no one cares about the games, no one will want to sponsor the Olympics any more? As for those who dare to disobey and actually talk about their experiences online? The Olympics are threatening to remove their credentials or possibly "take legal action for any monetary damages." Monetary damages? From posting your thoughts on the games? Seems pretty clear just how focused the Olympic organizers are on money instead of the athletes and the contests.

GUI Olympics! several corporate sponsors (ATI, nVidia, and others) are offering up $15,000 in prize money for the best GUI skin any designer can come up with for a few applications. while i think it's great to push for newer and better user interfaces, who do so many of the designs seem to be pushing complexity over useability? wouldn't a better use of a GUI design prize be to encourage people to improve on a design rather than make it unintelligible? maybe the people pushing the designs need to take this quiz.

Olympics Say No to Wi-Fi

Olympics Say No to Wi-Fi 05/20/2004 09:53 AM
Athens IT contractor finds Wi-Fi too prone to denial of service at present: The Atos Origin manager for the games didn't stress security issues like actual break-ins. Rather, he was concerned about the likelihood of attempted attacks that they would have to analyze, and the potential of a single idiot to jam signals. These are unfortunately reasonable concerns at present--it's all too easy to produce junk 2.4 GHz signals or to automate denial of service attacks that deassociate other clients....

The TiVo Olympics

The TiVo Olympics 09/06/2004 11:54 PM

Every fourth summer, IT trade pubs write about the technology that powers the Olympic Games. It's always an interesting topic, but apart from an enhanced focus on security, the Athens 2004 stories were little changed from their Sydney 2000 counterparts. And yet, this Olympics was utterly transformed, for me and for a few million other viewers, by TiVo.

Thanks to this cheap, Linux-based appliance, I was able to compress all of the events that interested me into a fraction of the time it would otherwise have taken to watch them. I'll always remember the Athens games as the first TiVo Olympics. Now I'm thinking about ways to make the next one even better.

In our world -- where blogs, Wi-Fi, and computer-attached video cameras are the norm -- we've begun to redefine the art of event coverage. If you want to see how the Beijing Olympics should be covered in 2008, visit a tech conference next year. [Full story at InfoWorld.com]

Big Brother goes to the Olympics

Big Brother goes to the Olympics 08/13/2004 10:37 AM
New Scientist has an article looking at the US$312 million surveillance system installed for the 2004 Olympics in Athens. The eyes and ears consist of 1,000 high-res and infrared videocameras peppering the city. Cell and landline telephone calls are being recorded, converted into text, and "scanned for phrases that could be linked to terrorist activity." The software's developers say it speaks Greek, English, Arabic, Farsi, and other major languages.

(John Pike, an analyst with the defence think-tank Global Security) believes other undisclosed measures are undoubtedly in place, such as face recognition from video footage. He says such surveillance technology has already proven its worth in intelligence gathering. "They're basically the sort of stuff the National Security Agency has been using for some time," he told New Scientist. "And they seem to place great faith in it."

The human security is massive as well--there are seven security people for every athlete. Link

Were Olympics "Indecent"?

Hollywood Reporter: FCC Requests Tape of Olympics. The Federal Communications Commission has asked for a tape of NBC's broadcast of the opening ceremony of the Summer Olympics after it received at least one indecency complaint.

No, it's not April Fools Day yet. This is apparently real. Shudder for our nation, if this kind of idiocy preoccupies people who have serious duties to perform.

Olympics underway

Olympics underway 08/11/2004 01:25 PM

Just watched the US Women's team defeat Greece 3-0. Five members of the 1991 world cup team are still playing for the US which is pretty impressive -- there aren't a lot of examples in international sports of people remaining competitive for over 13 years.

Tomorrow, Iraq rejoins the Olympics for the first time since 1988 to play soccer against Portugal, which is great to see. On the downside, I'm hearing about a lot of top American athletes ducking out of this year's games (in tennis, basketball, and cycling especially) citing injuries and personal reasons. It's a shame we won't seem them but I'm wondering if part of it is due to concerns about attacks or violence. I certainly hope the games go smoothly, it seemed a few months ago the only news coming out of Athens was bad news, but today's soccer match seemed to go just fine.

Fontshop, the 500-lb gorilla of type foundries, has released Jonathan Barnbrook's Olympukes dingbat font - which does a good job of reconciling the love/hate relationship many of us have with this most constructed of all sports events - for free. Barnbrook is the po litically savage designer behind the Virus typefoundry, and is probably most well-known for collaborations with Damien Hirst and the typefaces Exocet and Mason (which was originally called Manson – and "intended to speak of the uncomfortable associations between elegance and violence" – but was renamed Mason in a fit of pique marketing), which are sold through the fine folks at Emigre.
