Harassed 'Saddam' Seeks New Name
(Reuters) 01/05/2004 08:35 AM
Reuters - A Saudi Arabian man who called his son Saddam Hussein 14 years ago is now desperately trying to have the name changed. Mohsen al-Harithy first asked the relevant authorities to change his son's name in 1990, when the forces of the now-deposed Iraqi president invaded neighboring Kuwait, the Saudi English-language Arab News newspaper reported Monday.

Question

The Age Old Entrepreneur-VC Paranoia
Question 03/14/2005 05:27 PM
More evidence that startups are back in fashion: we're seeing a repeat of articles about the startup process that were published during the bubble years. It seems that every new generation of entrepreneurs has to find out how things work yet again -- so the old stories are resuscitated with new actors filling all the usual roles. The Boston Globe is running the ever-popular "how secretive should you be with your business plan in pitching VCs?" story. This article was probably written and published twenty or so times in the mid-to-late nineties. While this one includes the story of how Sidestep pitched some VCs who later went on to found competitor Kayak, the example case five years ago was UrbanFe tch being created after an investor heard Kozmo's pitch and figured he could do a better job. Of course, VCs who actually do take someone else's idea are being pretty stupid -- because word gets around (such as in articles like this one, where VC firm General Catalyst is accused of poaching Sidestep's ideas) and it makes it more difficult for them to get the good deals in the future. Venture capital is a reputation business -- and jeopardizing the reputation over a single investment is a bad bet. However, in the long run, this issue is a silly one. If you have a good idea, keeping it secret is never going to be the answer. It may make sense initially, as you sort out some of the details, but if it's a good idea there's always going to be competition -- and the real trick is how well you can compete in the market, not in how well you hide your business plan.

Caller ID Spoofing... For Businesses

Caller ID Spoofing... For Businesses 08/27/2004 07:01 PM
Forget spoofed email headers, a new company has been set up to help companies spoof the caller ID. The product is focused at collections agencies and private investigators, who can call a deadbeat up pretending to be someone they know to get them to answer the phone. The company insists they just want to target those types of customers, but I imagine some telemarketers would enjoy using such a tool. Meanwhile, there are some questions on legality. One person notes that it doesn't appear to break any laws -- but someone else points out that there are rules against collections agencies misrepresenting themselves. And, of course, as soon as this becomes popular, someone will pass a law banning caller ID spoofing.

Bogus-ify your outgoing caller ID

Bogus-ify your outgoing caller ID 08/31/2004 01:06 AM
Xeni Jardin: Ahoy, stalkers, crank yankers, and evil telemarketer scumbags! Beginning this Wednesday, September 1, US-based online company Star38.com will offer paying subscribers a Caller ID falsification service. Make-believe you're the White House! Or 1-800-CALL-ATT! Or, hell, get your '80s on and vamp out in 867-5309! Kevin Poulsen of SecurityFocus tried it out, and evidently the service checked out as providing what it promised. Users complete an online form with phone number, number they want to call, number they want to appear to be calling from; in a couple of seconds, the system rings back to patch them through to their call destination. But, like, in a secret numeric disguise: call recipients see the spoofed number displayed on Caller ID. Link to Register article (via /., which contains some interesting debate from readers over whether or not the system is a truly effective spoofing mechanism)

OS X update has Bluetooth caller ID

OS X update has Bluetooth caller ID 05/27/2004 05:07 PM
Gadget Lab's Brian Lam sez: "I noticed that you covered blue phonemenu in the past, so figured I'd drop a line about the new os x panther update. I was just reading the update details and saw this :

"Dialog windows for incoming phone calls and SMS messages for a paired Bluetooth phone now appear in the foreground."

I just tested it. You have to pair your bluetooth phone in address book, and a little pop up comes up, like bluephonemenu. The dialog choices are: add card/log call, sms reply, hang up, answer.

Log call puts the time and date of the call in the address book entry

Unfortunately, the pop up box doesn't show an image of the person calling - that would be freakin' cool

For SMS, the pop-up box has the dialog choices: log sms, reply, and ok.

It's pretty good, and stable, but doesn't sit in the system tray like bluephonemenu. Link

Caller ID Spoofing Service

Caller ID Spoofing Service 08/31/2004 05:56 AM

My wife and I made a decision nearly 2 years ago to no longer pay for Caller ID. I was initially against it but in the long run I have not missed it. All of the important calls come in on the cell anyway. For those of you that have Caller ID a new spoofing service is out their. I would imagine for stalkers and prank callers this service will be valuable but I just don't understand why you would want to legitimately spoof your caller ID. [ZDNet]
