More information =? Safer travel 09/22/2004 02:24 PM
The TSA wants 77 airlines to turn over information about everyone who traveled domestically during June so it can be compared with a "newly concentrated security watch list." Some of the names would be compared with bank, mortgage and credit agency databases. This compels all airlines to turn over personal information that JetBlue and Northwest were embarrassed to be caught turning over voluntarily, according to the NY Times. It's a replacement for the CAPPS 2 system that caused a ruckus among civil liberties folks. Unlike CAPPS 2, it would not also be used to find people wanted on outstanding warrants,...

Diller To Show IAC Is No Travel Company
By Creating IAC's Travel Company
12/22/2004 01:16 AM
Barry Diller has done a good job buying up various online "middleman" companies in a variety of spaces from travel to social networking to dating. However, he says too many people view InterActiveCorp as a travel company and that's making it more difficult to acquire non-travel companies. So, in order to prove that he's not running a travel company... he's going to show them what it means to really run a travel company. That is, he's going to spin off all of IAC's travel properties, including Expedia, Hotwire, TravelNow and Hotels.com, into one company (which he'll still run), and keep all the other properties as IAC. While it may be a good idea to realize the value of those other properties, from the beginning Diller kept talking about the synergies of having all of these properties under the same umbrella. Apparently, those synergies only go so far when the stock price isn't as high as he had hoped.

I leave on a bus at 6am for 2-hour ride to LAX, then on a plane from LAX to JFK, then on another plane (different airline, so I have to get my baggage and haul it to another terminal) to Burlington, VT. I'll arrive at 11-something PM, local time. Should be warmer than yesterday: around zero degrees.

See ya there.

There have been some sever e allegations about foul play inside of ICANN with regards to the .travel sTLD allocation. Staff, counsel and the board have reviewed these allegations and I am convinced that these allegations are unfounded and have just voted in favor of .travel.

I have talked to several independent participants who are also puzzled by these allegations but I have asked them to dig around for more facts. I will report back if I find anything, but until there is some third party corroboration of these allegation, I would hope people would stop spreading this rumor as if it were fact. I understand that people don't like to give ICANN the benefit of the doubt, but these are quite severe allegations from a single source. Please be responsible.

Travel update from UK


Travel update from UK 06/08/2004 04:24 AM

Sorry about the light blogging. Have been a bit distracted with my travels.

British Midland lost my bag on a direct flight from Naples to Heathrow. Unsure who's fault it was, but no apology (not that I expected one) from anyone. Luckily, it arrived that night.

Staying at the Park Lane Hotel on Piccadilly. Looked like a nice room at first glance, but the fax machine was broken, room safe broken (they've tried to fix it 3 times, still broken), drippy faucet, door lock broken (took 24 hours to fix), wifi in room, but a credit card based T-Mobile network with spotty coverage in my room.

The room is much better than many places I've stayed, but it would be SO MUCH better if they just had their shit together a bit more. (Maybe it's because I'm using mileage to pay for the room...)
Anyway, I expected much better from a "five star" London hotel. What a pity. I'm never going to stay at this hotel again.

On the bright side, I've gotten to meet a bunch of the UK bloggers and so far the food is MUCH BETTER than I remember it from visiting years ago.

I was in Sydney, Australia last week for Marcus Evans' Identity and Access Management Conference. There I listened to a number of people talk about projects they've done or have planned and I heard industry spokespeople talk about products and protocols. But the most memorable comment, to me, came from Peter F. Wilson, who is retired from the Australian Tax Office where he was charged with implementing e-business and commerce.

VPN-for-rent services are multiplying: HotSpotVPN.com is the grandpa in the field, but WiTopia.net's new personalVPN offering challenges their price and technology. In this article at Mobile Pipeline, I talk about both companies services. HotSpotVPN's recently introduced SSL VPN service competes head-to-head with personalVPN but has higher grades of encryption available at higher costs. Read the whole article for the run-down.

Is Time Travel Is Possible?


Is Time Travel Is Possible? 03/15/2003 04:00 PM
There was that guy who was supposedly going to have 3rd August 2002 tatooed on his forearm instructing him to come back in time to the Empire State Building on that date should he ever gain access to time travel in his lifetime. Whatever.

What about putting a line in your will and testament to the effect that you will legally force your children to pledge that they will come back in time to meet you should they gain access to time travel in their lifetimes, and they in turn must too must force their children to make the same pledge and so on all the way down your entire line of descendants. Surely by making that pledge today you should be able to make time travel happen. If it is at all possible.

Wow, wait a minute......someone who looks a little like me dressed in an outfit made out of what looks like silver foil type fabric just appeared in my room. Wait...what?....you mean you're my great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grea t grandson and you've come back to show me all about time travel? Wow! I just had a quick trip forwards in time to August this year and I blogged it!

Cool.

USATODAY.com - Luma Anwar and her mother arrived at the passport office at 3 a.m. one day last week.It wasn't early enough. After 12 hours in line, they were nowhere near the front.It was their third attempt to get a passport for Anwar, who plans to drive to Amman before flying to Detroit to meet her husband-to-be. The passport will have to wait for another day."If I could just get my passport, I'd be the happiest woman in the universe," says Anwar, 24.The right to travel was one of the most enticing of the freedoms Iraqis looked forward to after the collapse of Saddam Hussein's regime. It has also been one of the most agonizingly elusive.Under Saddam, getting permission to travel could take up to a year and was mostly reserved for privileged members of the government or their families.Since they became available June 22, about 500,000 passports have been issued. But harried clerks can't keep up with demand and every day there are long lines and frustrated people.Baghdad's gleaming international airport terminal has been renovated by U.S. taxpayers at a cost of nearly $39 million dollars. But more than a year after the fall of Saddam, only a couple charter flights use the airport. And even the civilian planes use evasive tactics to avoid surface-to-air missiles when landing.Iraqi Airways had planned to resume flying this Saturday from Baghdad to Amman, Jordan and Damascus, Syria. Saturday's flight would have been the nation's first international commercial flight since 1990, when U.N. sanctions were imposed after Iraq invaded Kuwait.Alas, the airline remains grounded, unable to secure airspace permission from the U.S.-led coalition."All of our efforts to fly out of Iraq have been futile," says Isaac Esho, the airline's deputy director general.
