Zimran Ahmed writes that he doesn't think SMS will do well in the US, but cameras will. I find SMS text-entry slow and painful, and belive it's popularity in Europe stems in large part from the high per-minute charges Europeans endure. But taking a picture with your phone and mailing it to someone is quick and easy, so I think it will prove quite popular. In Europe you are generally charged per second (not per minute), so giving a quick...

Military To Jam GPS Signals


Military To Jam GPS Signals 06/14/2004 03:33 AM
If you're out on a boat on the east coast this week, don't expect to rely on your GPS navigation system. It appears that the government isn't just interested in jamming mobile phones for military reasons - but are now testing systems to jam GPS signals along the east coast as well. They've been trying to get the message out, but it's likely that some people out on their boats may find themselves a bit less sure of where they are. Of course, it was partly because of this very threat of US jamming of GPS signals that Europe has been working on their own satellite location system, Galileo - which will be independent of military control. This also might mean that any jamming by the US of GPS won't much matter once Galileo is up and running.

Sending Money Via Mobile Phones


Sending Money Via Mobile Phones 08/16/2004 02:27 PM
While there's been a lot of talk lately about various mobile payment systems like DoCoMo's FeLiCa (which is similar to Moneta in Korea, Dexit in Canada, and Speedpass in the US among others) it looks like the Korea Financial Telecommunications & Clearings Institute is trying a slightly different approach, where users will be able to send money to anyone just by knowing their mobile phone number. This isn't just for mobile-to-mobile payments, but for any payment, so that someone doesn't have to reveal their bank account info. In many ways it's similar to PayPal, but instead of using an email address, you can pay to a mobile phone number. Of course, if I remember correctly, this was actually PayPal's original plan... to let people easily transfer cash between PDAs.

Say what you will about MSN. But before they came about the world of WebTV was equal to the wild west. Back in the 90’s I was among the computer owners that also owned a WebTV box. I was also very much ‘aware of’ the WebTV signature codes that were being embedded by certain users that allowed malicious perps to ‘bomb’ another’s box by embedding a payload via crescendo music tags. MSN took care of…

Google sending prefetch cookies


Google sending prefetch cookies 04/04/2005 10:30 AM
Cameo
Google & Firefox == Evil & Annoying

I recently did a search at google for "radio shack". To my surprise, I received a cookie setting request from radio shack.com. This had never happened before- and radio shack also happened to be a sponsored link. I did other searches, such as "ford", "sony", and even "girl scouts"- and each time, the top link requested a cookie to be set. Since Girl Scouts did not have a sponsored link- I realised it must only be the top link that sets a cookie. It turned out that Mozilla browsers (that includes firefox) and Google have both enabled prefetch- although it would seem that Google only recently enabled it- as this is a new occurrence. I always verify the setting of cookies- so this makes every google search into an annoying cookie refusal time waste. It would also seem that prefetching is turned on my default in firefox- and is very unintuitive to turn off.

So- for my friends that automatically accept cookies- you are now downloading a page and a cookie nearly every time you use google and firefox together.

And even though I never clicked on their link- and never wanted to visit their site- I'm downloading the top link of my search results to my harddrive every time I do a Google search.

This makes me dislike not only Mozilla- but Google as well.

There is a discussion about this on WebmasterWorld.com as well. This feels annoying and since it's more fun to pick on Google than Microsoft these days, I'm blogging it.

These days, the online consumer has an awful lot of choices for online news. Assuming that your newspapers' site is so special that people will want to cough up all sorts of personal info in exchange for access is an increasingly risky bet - but more and more sites are taking it, believing (incorrectly) that by doing this they'll get better info for their advertisers. This is wrong, of course. First off, by putting up any barrier, they're scaring off a good number of potential readers who have plenty of other places they can go to get similar stories. As for the "more accurate data" they can use to pitch advertisers - most are finding that much of the registered data they get is dirty data, since users don't want to give up personal info just to read the news. So, they have a smaller audience and less accurate data on that audience. This doesn't seem likely to bring in any more money. In fact, it seems like a recipe for bringing fewer advertising dollars. Why are so many more sites rushing to do this?
