04/13/2004 02:10 PMThe latest study from the folks at the Pew project (who put out
reports at an amazing pace) shows that
approximately one in six US users have logged onto the internet via
WiFi. Actually, the report says via WiFi "or another wireless
technology" which seems fairly broad. Does that include accessing the
internet via a mobile phone? Either way, there's also a bit of a
generation gap as one in three US users under the age of 27 have used
wireless technologies to access the internet. Of course, part of me
also wonders how many people have used wireless connections without
knowing it. In other words, if you sat at my desk and used my
computer, (unless you checked carefully) you might not have any idea
that it's connected wirelessly to the router.

08/17/2004 01:25 PMMy latest TheFeature article is about ways to make tiny batteries last
for years.
At Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y., researchers are
trying to make a nuclear-powered battery with a very long life span.
They've built prototype batteries that use a speck of nickel-63 (a
radioactive isotope) to vibrate a tiny cantilever. The cantilever
could be made from a piece of piezoelectric material, which could
supply power to the sensor. Nickel-63 has a half-life of around 100
years, so it could provide power for several decades. Nukes make
people nervous, but there's not enough radioactive material in the
prototype to cause a mini-meltdown -- it's comparable to the amount
found in a smoke detector. Still, researchers acknowledge that they
have a perception problem to overcome.

Three Municipal Wireless Networks

06/24/2004 06:11 PMBob Brewin dives into three cities that are deploying large-area Wi-Fi
networks for public-safety-only and mixed-use purposes: Spokane has
unwired 100 city blocks, Rio Rancho claims over a 100 square miles,
and Cook County ultimately expects nearly 1,000 square miles of
coverage for public safety in Chicago and surrounding areas. The
movement shows that municipal Wi-Fi has moved from a curiosity
explored without many concrete goals--let's bring more people into
downtown and see what happens, for instance--into a critical part in
managing emergency response for fire, police, and medical personnel.
When major incidents hit, the critical question is how well these
networks perform, especially compared to cellular, landline, and
proprietary (and expensive) public-safety band equipment. Spokane and
Rio Rancho will offer public access to the network, while Cook County
is focusing purely on public safety. Cook County's routers can switch
to cellular or satellite networks as needed....
