Yeah, I've been checking back repeatedly to see if this site had launched. If that makes me a dork, I accept the nomenclature gladly.

Tales of InteroperabilityTales of Interoperability 03/06/2004 01:49 AM The Register reports on a story that ran in a magazine called Computing Which? that details failures to get standard Wi-Fi gear from different manufacturers to interoperate: The editors tried to set up a Linksys 802.11g router and a Netgear bridge but couldn't get the two devices to interact. Eventually one Netgear help desk agent told the writers the products could be incompatible. It doesn’t appear that the original story is online so it's hard to know more about this trial. It sounds as though the aim of the report was to test how easy or difficult it is to set up wireless networks. The writers concluded that it's too hard to use. It would be unfortunate if the industry has a hard time attracting additional users because the products are inoperable and difficult to use.... Tales of the PhantomTales of the Phantom 01/28/2004 02:20 AM USA Today Jan 28 2004 6:51AM GMT Tsunami talesTsunami tales 12/28/2004 05:19 PM Behind the doleful ticker tape of news stories about rising death counts in Southern Asia, the Web is humming with firsthand accounts of the tsunami's wave of destruction. One of the most compelling is a string of ongoing dispatches from BBC reporters in affected areas. On Tuesday, for instance, Roland Buerk in Sri Lanka notes that tourists who were killed are being placed in mass graves alongside native inhabitants who have also perished. "Apparently the people who are burying them are trying to make a note of where the graves are," he reports, "and if they find a passport they are taking a note of that too, in the hope that perhaps one day those remains might be returned to their home countries." Buerk's personal account of when the tsunami first struck him in a Sri Lanka beach house is also striking. "We swam out of the room neck deep in water, forcing our way through the tables and chairs in the restaurant and up into a tree." Tales from the Mental HospitalTales from the Mental Hospital 06/09/2004 01:22 AM Tales from the Mental Hospital. "I fought them the best I could, but it was no use at all. I was rather quickly overpowered and dragged inside. A smart person would have just given up at that point, but at the time I was by no means a smart person. I started pulling and struggling to get these guys off me. This only made the situation worse, as I was forced down onto the floor of the wing so the nurse could come and administer the ever popular needle of Ativan into my ass cheek. I continued to try and fight, until a rather large fellow named Abdullah decided the best way to keep me down would to be to use his knee to pin my head to the rug."

Cautionary Tales for ChildrenCautionary Tales for Children 06/22/2004 09:09 AM "Jim, Who Ran Away from his Nurse and Was Eaten By a Lion," a poem by Hilaire Belloc, demonstrates why he's considered to be the father of chi ldren's snuff literature. Tales of the Future PastTales of the Future Past 05/28/2004 03:24 PM Tales of New Hotspots, ServicesTales of New Hotspots, Services 03/08/2004 11:15 PM Wayport is just one of a handful of companies announcing new places to find hotspots over the last week: Visitors to San Francisco's Moscone Center will be able to get access from Wayport in common areas and meeting rooms by the spring. Most of the conference center will be covered by then with the rest coming later. A slightly different clientele will likely be using a new hotspot in Philadelphia. The mayor announced that the city will set up a hotspot in Love Park. Apparently the park used to be filled with skateboarders who were recently banned from using the park. But a compromise is being worked on that will allow skateboarders during certain hours. They'll now be able to tote their laptops to the park as well. In other city hotspot news, San Jose is planning a big bash Thursday, March 11 at 11:00 at the Circle of Palms to celebrate San Jose's downtown Wi-Fi service. The mayor and members of the Silicon Valley Wireless Communications Alliance will be there. Demonstrations of the service will be available and the new Downtown Wi-Fi portal will be launched. Finally, for those iPass customers who have been waiting for the iPass/T-Mobile agreement to come to fruition, the wait is over. Starting today, iPass users will see 4,200 T-Mobile hotspots in the iPass directory of available access sites. IPass customers can also find more information about those and all iPass broadband access sites now that iPass has licensed a directory tool from JiWire. IPass customers will be able to view maps of where the hotspots are and read detailed information about the venues that offer the hotspots. The tool includes information about all iPass broadband locations, wired or wireless, around the globe. JiWire is a Wi-Fi Networking News partner. The announcement about the T-Mobile sites isn't available online and JiWire doesn't seem to have posted its news release on its site yet....
