vs Playstation 3 vs. Nintendo Revolution 06/17/2005 03:57 PM

Nothing like a good side by side comparison to separate the men from the boys when it comes to the next gen gaming consoles. True, not much is known at this time, but then again, for anyone seriously mulling this over and hankering for a good solid spec mash-up, you’ve come to the right place. In fact, we feel this is the longest, most massively detailed side-by-side ever built on the topic. Here we go……..

Virtual Collaboration: If You Can't Work
Side-by-Side

Virtual Collaboration: If You Can't Work
Side-by-Side 03/19/2005 02:58 AM

The Idea: What do you do if you need or want to collaborate, but you can't do so in person? What purposes are best served by weblogs, wikis, and other types of online collaboration tools, spaces and media? Collaboration entails finding the right group of people (skills, personalities, knowledge, work-styles, and chemistry), ensuring they share commitment to the collaboration task at hand, and providing them with an environment, tools, knowledge, training, process and facilitation to ensure they work together effectively. This is challenging enough face-to-face in real-time. It's doubly difficult virtually and asynchronously. But there are examples of great music, literature, invention, scientific discovery and problem-solving that have come from such handicapped collaboration. How did they do it, and can you improve the likelihood of brilliant virtual collaboration by using the right tools and media? Let's take a look at some of the alternatives: Tool / Medium Collaborative Advantages Collaborative Disadvantages Best Suited to Collaborative: weblog easy to post & comment; content is subscribable/ publishable participation limited to comments Conversations wiki anyone can contribute content harder to learn; can be easily sabotaged; inelegant appearance Projects / Alliances whiteboard real-time; anyone can contribute content content only persists for duration of call; possible firewall issues Conversations / Projects document-sharing can be real time; anyone can contribute content possible firewall issues; attention is focused on a document Conversations / Projects IM/skype/phone/ e-mail/ videoconferencing real-time conversations; audio/visual context; speed content only persists for duration of call Conversations mindmaps shows and documents consensus can't capture detail Projects discussion forums threading of comments; content is subscribable/ publishable limited contextual knowledge of participants; can attract undisciplined behaviours; threads can be hard to follow Conversations community of practice/ interest spaces organization; defined membership; multiple collaborative tools harder to learn; formality can reduce intimacy and level of participation Projects / Alliances personal e-mail groups flexible; personal; easy to use e-mail overload/spam; threads get lost or hard to navigate and follow Projects / Alliances social networking tools large number of members; good way to find collaborators most actual collaboration is done using other tools and media Finding collaborators in-person collaboration easy; real-time; context-rich; flexible expensive; time-consuming All of the above if time & cost permits There are three levels of collaboration based on duration of contact: Conversations: Where you're in contact just once, or a few times, discussing a particular subject or group of subjects. Projects: Where you're in contact as often as necessary to complete a project. Alliances: Where you're in contact in multiple conversations and on multiple projects, working together for an indefinite period of time. A collaborative conversation may be provoked by an interesting or important idea or an urgent one-off need for information or assistance. Much of the time spent in business is consumed in consulting with others, in canvassing for ideas or suggestions or comments, and in making decisions on what something means or how to respond to it. These are generally quick, collaborative conversations. In large organizations these conversations are usually peer-to-peer (where trust is stronger than up or down the hierarchy), and as size increases further they tend to be more and more intermediated (one middle-manager recently told me that 70% of his e-mail and 50% of his telephone calls are of the "Who should I talk to about X?" variety). In smaller organizations, these conversations are more likely to draw on external networks, and to involve the use of today's clunky social networking tools like LinkedIn and eCademy. I have argued before that the next generation of social networking tools should include 'people-finders' that streamline and automate the process of finding the right person (inside or outside the organization) to talk to, so that more time can be spent on actual conversations with those people. Once you've found the right person to converse with, if they're close and inexpensive to talk to in person, that's likely what you'll do. But what if they aren't? How do you quickly provide your Conversation Collaborators with the context they need to converse with you effectively when you can't put a chart or a piece of paper in front of them and brief them? Organizations have found that if the person you want to converse with face-to-face is more than two minutes walk (or elevator ride) away, the probability of you making the effort to converse with them in person drops precipitously. If you have a blog, an audience, and a little time, your blog can serve this need well. Ask a question on a popular blog and you'll probably get an informed answer quite quickly (thank you readers!) Most businesses, alas, have few established blogs and even less time. Preferred conversation tools in business, when face-to-face is impossible, are now IM and the telephone -- with IM trumping the phone for its self-documentation, its suitability to multi-tasking, and because it's easier to browse than voice-mail, and the phone trumping IM if a lot of iteration is needed to provide context. White-boarding and document-sharing applications, awkward as they are, can be helpful additions to IM and telephone conversations if the participants are savvy enough to use them properly (most aren't) and if documents and graphics are needed to provide more context. E-mail is the increasingly unpopular fall-back. Discussion forums are the ultimate tool of last resort for conversations, because of the disadvantages listed above. In most of the companies I am familiar with, they are only sporadically used and quickly grow stale. A variety of tools have been developed for more enduring project collaborations and alliance collaborations. Because they tend to involve more participants than conversations do, the logistics get tougher and the effectiveness of these tools gets more challenging. And the threshold point for giving up on the viability of in-person collaboration rises dramatically. I think this is an absolutely critical point. It is the reason large corporations, with the internal resources (people and money) to sequester, have the capacity to collaborate more effectively than small corporations and loose, unfunded collaborative groups (though whether they use that capacity to advantage is another question entirely). Open Source project teams and alliances have pioneered low-budget, virtual, asynchronous collaboration, and are the role model to follow. But is the reason for this perhaps that Open Source collaborations are generally undertaken by exceptionally tech-savvy groups, very agile at using and even inventing their own collaborative tools to get the job done? They usually have a good GUI for the non-techie, but wade into the material and collaboration technology behind a lot of these groups and your head will start spinning. What about the other 95% of the population? If I want to set up a virtual collaboration team to design a model intentional community (with people I might end up spending the rest of the my life with) or to invent a post-capitalist economy (a large project if there ever was one), what tools and media should I use? Wikis are one place to start -- a bit nerdy and physically inelegant but functional and not that hard to learn once you take the plunge. They are, however, asynchronous tools, which is a significant barrier to true collaboration. There are some more robust collaborative 'spaces' for communities of interest and communities of practice to adopt, but some of the best 'groupware' (like Groove and Exchange and eRooms) costs money and requires considerable learning to use its different tools effectively. These tools generally also require a coordinator to invest a lot of time to setting up and managing the 'space'. There are a variety of document-sharing technologies in the market, which allow several people to see a document at once and to 'take control' each in turn to change that document. Ideally, using a combination of Skype (free global VoIP telephony), White-boarding (everyone online can see what anyone posts to the white-board), Document-sharing and Mindmapping or some similar session annotation tool (everyone can see what the group's 'scribe' has documented as the findings, decisions and next actions from the collaboration) would be a close approximation to an in-person collaborative session. But that's a lot of technology to juggle on your screen, to hog and interfere with your bandwidth, and (if you opt for the more powerful tools in these categories) can also require some outlay of money. My experience has been (thanks in no small part to the valuable insights of online communication wizard Robin Good and Skypemaster Stu Henshall) that video-conferencing (seeing the people you're talking with online) is a "nice to have" not a "need to have", especially when bandwidth limitations force you to choose which applications to have running at any one time. I am confident that, as bandwidth and processing power continue to expand, we will soon see: A single, free, reliable, easy-to-use, professional-looking application that will provide what I've called Simple Virtual Presence -- the four applications listed above plus the option of videoconferencing (illustrated above), and A simple, free, easy-to-use collaboration space where the results of the online collaboration sessions, and a library of relevant resources and links, are stored, with wiki-like capability so it can be maintained by any and all in the group. Now that would be a real virtual collaboration environment.

Client side validation 01/22/2004 03:09 AM

Brent Simmons: What I could do—what I’d like to do—is include Mark’s and Sam Ruby’s validator in NetNewsWire.

+1.  I'm in.

This will require some work, none of it hard.  Prereqs are Python 2.x and pyxml.  There currently are three interfaces: a CGI/web interface, a command line, and a web interface.

• The CGI/web interface contains a number of absolute paths and direct references to the host.  However, this is probably the best place to start.
• The command line interface is designed primarily for development use.  However, something like this that returns back a simple return code might be useful for your optional indicator.
• The web service interface accepts a simple HTTP POST, optionally with SOAP envelope and body elements.  This could be evolved into something that does exactly the same as the above, but without requiring any installation on the client.  Of course, this would require that the user be online at the time, and would have quite different performance characteristics.  Overall, probably not the path to pursue in this case.

In any case, none of this work is difficult, and I would be glad to do it.

A group of record labels plan on introducing a disk that would be a CD on one side and an DVD on the other. This is so they can put one good song on one side and one good music video on the other and sell the rest of the junk for $39.95.

Supposedly this is to allow artist a way to offer more creative artistic content. (gag) [ZDNet]

I was going to blog from Reeperbahn (I find it slightly worrying that T9 actually recognizes that word) but instead exhaustion got the better of me, so I'm in the hotel, ready for bed.

But idly I wonder about why my name seems so feminine to many non-Finns. The hotel tv greets me as "Mrs Jalkanen", and someone has placed a women's magazine on the table for my convenient perusal.

Well, no big harm done :). If some computer out there thinks I'm a woman, let it be. Computers need their fun, too.

Update: I need to check my handwriting. The hotel bill this morning was addressed to

Mrs. Janne Jalkanen
Algrsis Rivon Katu

Finland

NOT quite where I imagine living. And the poor clerk looked very confused as she looked me in the eye and went: "M...errr Jalkanen?", as she was trying to decide which one was correct: the computer or her eyes. :-D

Chaos with a side of order

Chaos with a side of order 04/08/2005 03:52 AM

Today I finally figured out how to use a shuffle in both predictable and unpredictable ways. A couple weeks ago I took a flight and I wanted to listen to 10 tracks that made up a short audiobook, but then load up the rest of my shuffle with 150 songs to listen to during other parts of the trip. The problem was, I couldn't figure out how to load certain tracks at the beginning, and play just those in order, while still being able to switch to random and fast forwarding through the occasional audiobook track amid the music mix. It's not that hard to accomplish, but there are a few sticking points I figured I'd share.

- Create a new playlist with your audiobook tracks, then add a bunch of songs and albums you want to hear to fill out the remainder of your shuffle.

- Fill your shuffle from that playlist. You must order the songs so that the audiobook tracks are first in the list. If you can't get this sort by clicking on any column headers, highlight the first column with numbers and drag the tracks one by one into the first slots in the list -- that's the only way to arbitrarily order tracks in iTunes. This is one "feature" I didn't learn until recently and seems to be lacking from playlists (even though every other software mp3 player lets you arbitrarily reorder tracks in playlists). It might be a royal pain to do this one by one, through hundreds of tracks. Be sure to update when you've got the order done before removing the shuffle.

- Now, if you want to jam to music, go to shuffle mode and enjoy. When you want to listen to your audiobook, switch to ordered mode (non-shuffle, first click on the switch) and hit the play button three times to go to the start of the playlist.

Sometimes you want order and chaos in the same package and that's how to do it. Even when I don't have an audio book on my shuffle, I like to find my favorite song of the moment and keep it as the first track, so at any point I can switch to ordered mode, hit play three times, then switch back to shuffle and hear it.
