VoIP - Plan A vs Plan B
VoIP - Plan A vs Plan B
03/06/2004 01:56 AM
2003 was a remarkable year in the US for voice over the internet
(VoIP). If you needed a label for the events of the year, "Collapse of
Denial" would be a good one -- after a long period of relative
inaction, the FCC and the state regulators are suddenly pushing hard
for a regulatory framework. The question is no longer whether voice is
going to become an internet application, but when.
"When" could still be a very long time, however. The incumbent local
phone companies -- Verizon, SBC, BellSouth and Qwest -- have various
degrees of interest in VoIP, but are loathe to embrace it quickly or
completely, because doing so means admitting to everyone --
shareholders, regulators, customers -- that both monopoly control and
artificially high voice revenues are going away. (The fact that this
is true does not much lessen the pain of saying so.) As a result, they
will likely try to convince regulatory agencies, both the FCC and the
states', to burden competitive VoIP firms like Vonage with additional
costs and rules, while delaying their own offerings.
Complicating this de facto Plan A, however, is the fact that VoIP
isn't a service, it's just a set of protocols, meaning that
competitors don't have to buy into Plan A to deploy it. If Plan A is
"Replace the phone system slowly and from within," Plan B is far more
radical: "Replace the phone system. Period."

that military planners didn't prepare for the occupation of Iraq, and
now a military planner himself is saying the same thing. In an
unpublished report, covered by the
Washington Post, Maj. Isasiah Wilson
III, a military historian who helped devise the Pentagon's Iraq
strategy, writes that the Defense Department never had a plan for
"Phase IV" -- the period of occupation and reconstruction that would,
in theory, have won the peace.

09/24/2004 05:41 AMAsynchronous Discussion Groups As Small World and Scale Free
Networks by Gilad Ravid and Sheizaf Rafaelihttp://firstmonda
y.org/issues/issue9_9/ravid/AbstractWhat is the network form of online
discussion groups? What are the topological parameters delineating the
interaction on such groups? We report an empirical examination of the
form of online discussion groups. We are interested in examining
whether such groups conform to the Small World and the Scale Free
models of networks. Support for these expectations provides a formal
expression of growth, survival potential and preferential attachment
in the connection patterns in discussion groups. The research
questions were tested with a sample of over 8,000 active participants,
and over 30,000 messages. We find that the social network resulting
from discussion groups is indeed a Scale Free Network, based on In,
Out and All Degree distributions. We also find that, for the same
sample, discussion groups are a Small World Network too. As expected,
the clustering coefficients for these groups differ significantly from
random networks, while their characteristic path lengths are similar
to random networks. Implications of the topology for the design and
understanding of discussion groups include the stability and control
of such groups, as well as their longevity.

The Scale of Scale
The Scale of Scale
04/13/2005 08:15 AMTwo awesome bon mots in a fant
astic post by Jeff Jarvis:
"Scale doesn't scale anymore."
and
"Aggregation is the new scale."
This is what I was talking about five years ago, when I described
syndication as an over-arching business
model in a Harvard Business Review article. At that point, although
we had blogs and RSS, the other precursors for the revolution Jeff
ably describes weren't yet in place. Now they are.
Ever since I started Supernova, I've tried to
explain why decentralization was such a critical trend. Now it seems
that lightbulbs are going off in many places. As Jeff summarizes:
"The old days of big players in the economy collecting
consumers, audience, distribution, manufacturing efficiency, buying
power, or capital in the grip of centralized control are waning. That
used to be the way to find efficiency and size. That used to be the
way to scale. But they are being foiled by our new distributed world.
And they are being replaced by a more efficient means of finding size
and efficiency."
Exactly.

IT Myth 6: IT doesn't scale

has been judged and found wanting. The failures are often summed up in

course, is that at one time or another, for one reason or another,
every kind of information technology has failed to scale.

Can The Internet Scale Up?
12/22/2003 02:55 PMCarnegie Mellon has just taken $7.5 million NSF money to look at ways
to
build the next generation of the
internet. The article here includes some interesting quotes from
Carnegie Mellon professor Hui Zhang, going against the popular theory
that the internet can continue to scale the way it's been built -
saying that the complexity of growing this system and keeping it
running are becoming overwhelming. From the article, it sounds like
he's suggesting we go back to a circuit-switched style network where
connections are point to point rather than just tossing everything
into the cloud and letting the routers figure it all out. This
certainly seems to go against the way many people believe the internet
should work, and would lend itself to a much more controlled internet
(which governments and certain corporations might like), but sounds
like it would be much less useful for actually innovating and getting
stuff done.

Making RSS Scale
Making RSS Scale
09/06/2004 10:26 AM I've been meaning to write about this since I saw a one-page article
on the subject of RSS clogging websites' bandwidth in NewScientist
back in June. But it wasn't until I saw this Slashdot story on the
same subject that I knew I had to get my thoughts down. A lot of
sites are suffering from a big problem — they are being
systematically hammered by RSS newsreaders for new material at
regular intervals. When I first came across RSS around two
years ago and did some reading up on it, it sounded like another
interesting protocol for a nonproblem. I wondered what was wrong with
just refreshing a "What's new?" page. (I have a natural scepticism
towards new and exotic protocols.) Nonetheless, after RSS established
a niche in the realm of informing us, rolling news style, of new
network content, I recognised its usefulness in this situation. I did
still feel that its design was suboptimal, no matter how many
thousands of bloggers now relied on it.
The Scale of Horror
The Scale of Horror
12/28/2004 02:51 PMWe use the word "disaster" too casually, but some events warrant the
word. That's the case with the simply horrific scale of
death and destruction
in south Asia from the earthquake and tsunamis.
The tens of thousands who will have died when the counting ends are
the immediate tragedy. But their numbers are dwarfed by literally
millions of people whose lives have been turned inside out by this
disaster. They must be the world's focus now. We must all do what we
can to help.
As noted, I've sent some money to the Red Cross. I'm making another
donation today, this time to
Doctors
without Borders, an organization I've praised here before.
There are many others doing valuable work. (Here are some
helpful links.)
The people of south Asia need us, right now, and these organizations
are the best quick way for us to do something useful. Please, please
give generously.
