Another kind of springtime allergy

Another kind of springtime allergy 04/17/2005 10:34 AM
Craig Jarvis: One day last week, native New Yorker Robert Weiss, artistic director of Carolina Ballet, paused in the middle of an overheated studio to think through the choreography for a pair of dancers he was rehearsing. Suddenly, he sounded irritated and snapped, “What is that noise?” Outside a door that had been propped open, a warbler sang in the fresh North Carolina spring air. “It’s a bird,” someone replied. “It’s not a cell phone?” Weiss said, incredulous.

Ron Livingston, Uber-nerd

Ron Livingston, Uber-nerd 07/28/2004 09:39 AM

So I actually walked by the subway ads for the upcoming Brittany Murphy/Ron Livingston pic 'Little Black Book' without once realizing that she was plucking a Palm from his pocket instead of, you know, a book. I even went so far as to think about how silly it was that they would base a movie around something that men haven't used in decades, maybe in the sequel they go hunting for the perfect shoe tree, ha ha, get it those are old. But Om Malik used his real human eyes to spot the Palm Tungsten used in the ads (and another one with a keyboard) and makes a very good point: if Ron Livingston's character meticulously cataloged his love life, with pictures and stories and everything into his Palm, doesn't that sort of make him a big nerd?

That's how Jenna Cohen describes her hubby, BitTorrent creator genius Bram Cohen in an excellent Wired article about the paradigm shift that is occurring with the rise of peercasting.

The article also includes tidbits from an interview with Cohen — that in itself makes the article worth reading (by the way, reading about Cohen's penchant for strategy games reminded me of a certain Gadgetopi-eer.)

'Organically Grown' Nerd Values

'Organically Grown' Nerd Values 06/03/2004 12:27 AM
Mark Glaser has written up an interesting piece on the growth of Craigslist.org and the competition it gives similar but more commercial ventures. According to Craig himself, Craiglist is run as a "non-commercial" site based on "nerd values" -- where things are done for the effect on the world, not necessarily the pocketbook. Apparently, Craig has turned down some lucrative offers for ads and buyouts. And after doing so, he's continured to slowly build up a comfortable (& profitable) business that threatens major newspapers. Depending on how you look at it, classified ads are being "stolen away" from major newspapers by this Bay-Area-grown community. On the other hand, many of the ads that go up on Craigslist might never have been placed in a newspaper for various reasons. Craigslist doesn't publish its earnings, but even assuming it has none, it has definitely succeeded in its "nerdy" goal of changing some small part of the world.
