Jason sez, "Knowing how crazy Boing Boing readers are for origami and
paper models, I thought you might be interested in Pepakura Designer,
which lets you print out plans for paper models from objects designed
in common 3D modelers... The demo has the save featured disabled, but
you can still print your objects. It works with objects from 3D

What happens to that T-shirt you give to
charity?
04/09/2004 04:01 PMOne of my memories from living in Africa is of all the wildly
inappropriate T-shirts people wear. One image that is indelibly
stamped on my brain is the sight of a Moslem man praying by the side
of the road, wearing a Jack Daniels T-shirt. I also remember seeing
the giant bales of second-hand clothes being taken apart at the
central market in Niamey. Today, via Joshua Schachter's Memepool I
found out that somebody has made a film about the whole phenomenon,
called T-Shirt Travels. It looks really good. From the PBS website:
How, Bloemen wondered, did all of these Africans end up selling used
clothing?" And where did all the T-shirts, jackets, hats and skirts
come from? She decided to follow the trail of the secondhand clothes.
In T-SHIRT TRAVELS, Bloemen first travels to the Jersey shore, where
she interviews Americans who donate their goods to various charities
but have little idea that their former wardrobes end up in Africa. She
talks to export agent Barney Lehrer from Brooklyn, who tells her that
the Salvation Army doesn't even unpack most of the donated clothing
but sells it to companies for export to third-world countries.
Strapped and packed in bales like hay, the companies who export the
goods sell them to commercial dealers in Africa, who mark up the bales
of clothing a whopping three to four hundred percent. These dealers in
turn sell to Africans like Luka Mafo, a 19-year-old Zambian who sells
secondhand clothing to support his mother, brothers, sisters and
cousins, hoping he can help them to stay in school and graduate. But
Bloemen still wondered: Was it always this way? What happened to all
of the Zambian clothing manufacturers? Mark O'Donnell, spokesperson
for Zambian Manufacturers, explains that in 1991, when the country's
markets were opened to free trade, container load after container load
of used clothing began to arrive in Zambia, undercutting the cost of
the domestic manufacturers and putting them out of business. The
skills, the infrastructure and the capital of an entire industry are
now virtually extinct, with not a single clothing manufacturer left in
the country today. I missed seeing it earlier this week when it was
broadcast on my local PBS station, but ITVS has a program search
service that allows you to search for upcoming broadcasts, so I'll try
there. Or I can always try to find it on video --...

iPod Mini Tokyo Launch: Shy Shoppers and
Zombie Models
07/27/2004 01:12 PM

There's nothing the Japanese love more
than a good ol' retail freak out, and when over 1,400 people lined up
outside the Tokyo Apple store on Saturday morning to snap at a chance
to get an iPod mini, the ensuing mass hysteria traveled, wave-like, up
the length of the snaking line to deposit itself paralyzingly in two
men who stood at the front, right before the just opening doors. The
1,400 waited patiently as the two men, startled by the mass of
camera-armed reporters waiting for them to step over the threshold,
refused to enter the store. It took the guarantee that the two men
would be able to buy the iPod minis they wanted (in their chosen
colors, naturally) in anonymity before the pair stepped aside, letting
the rush of less camera-shy buyers into the store to clear out Apple's
entire mini stock by four in the afternoon.
Also, in a mostly unrelated note, Apple has discovered that the
best way to promote the iPod mini in Japan is to hire undead Western
models to stare blankly into the distance.

Lightweight Business Models
Lightweight Business Models
09/22/2004 11:17 PMThe workshop that Jason Fried and myself will be giving at Web 2.0
is entitled "Lightweight Business Models". I'm liking that title more
and more as we approach the event.
What will be interesting to see - will be all the Web 1.0 folks
meeting all the Web 2.0 folks. Lots of announcements, schmoozing,
networking and (hopefully) kai-seki.
I have these vivid memories of the Nikko - doing kai-seki for hours
with various Japanese emissaries in the late 80's - when money was no
object.
I don't necessarily see the Web 2.0 as a platform with JUST eBay,
Amazon or Google - but it's nice to have them there. But it's also
nice to have Technorati, Sxip and Flickr.
:-)
The idea of workshop is that there are all these 'little' programs
out there that when connected together (via open standards) can create
a decentralized mesh of functionality united around new kinds of
micro-content.
Here's John
Battelle's post....
Over at O'Reilly,
Tim's posted his thoughts
on why Web 2.0 is a meme with legs, and he's inviting feedback from
his readers on what they'd like to see asked of all the speakers we
have coming to converse. I'd like to do the same - you guys have
always kept me honest, and the conference is really shaping up to be
something else again. As Tim puts it:
I'm talking about the emergence of what I've started to call Web
2.0, the internet as platform. We heard about that idea back in the
late 90s, at the height of the browser wars, but that turned out to be
a false alarm. But I believe we're now starting the third age of the
internet -- the first being the telnet-era command line internet, the
second the web -- and the third, well, that tale grows in the telling.
It's about the way that open source and the open standards of the web
are commoditizing many categories of infrastructure software, driving
value instead to the data and business processes layered on top of (or
within) that software; it's about the way that web sites like eBay,
Amazon, and Google are becoming platforms with rich add-on developer
communities; it's about the way that network effects and data, rather
than software APIs, are the new tools of customer lock-in; it's about
the way that to be successful, software today needs to work above the
level of a single device; it's about the way that the Microsofts and
Intels of tomorrow are once again going to blindside established
players because all the rules of business are changing.
Time and again as I report in this space, I'm struck by how
different this time round is from the late 1990s. For example, today I
spoke with Jeff Weber, who runs USAToday's digital publishing efforts,
and we had a robust conversation about publishing models, new and old.
I was part of the first wave of "new media" in the 90s, and we were
convinced that the world was changing, but wrong in the timing and
execution. Now, a whole host of "lightweight publishers" have sprung
up, and they are challenging and undermining the entire cost structure
and business model of old line publishers. This time, it's real. Weber
pointed out to me that Yahoo News, which is twice as big as
USAToday.com, and has just 11 employees. Then there's craigslist, with
more traffic than nearly anyone, and only 20 or so employees. How do
they do that? They've got a very Web 2.0, lightweight business model,
that's how (and Yahoo aggregates content, then creates interfaces, of
course). Over and over, in so many aspects of industry, we see this
happening - travel, finance, media, entertainment, retail. It's
exciting, and it's fun.
At Web 2.0, we're going to talk
about all this, and (this will be the last time, I promise) I'd really
like to see you all there. I still have a limited number of discount
codes to dole out, first come, first served (jbat at battellemedia dot
com). The event is October 5-7, in San Francisco at the Hotel
Nikko.
Even if you can't make it, check out the program
and let me know what you'd like to see asked of the speakers. I hope
to see you there!

New Business Models For The Music
Industry?
New Business Models For The Music
Industry?
09/15/2004 04:23 AMNPR is running a three-part series looking at
potential
new business models for the music industry in the face of the
ongoing changes brought about by digital technologies for the creation
and distribution of music. The three business models are all
interesting, and some are already being tried, but it seems unlikely
that any will get all that far. The first goes back to times past and
looks at the idea of "patronage." The idea is to get a wealthy
individual (or, more likely, company) to pay for musical output. The
NPR piece suggests that this could be modified as a way for hardcore
fans to repay a band, but another interesting concept could be
corporate sponsorship. The second idea is bringing back the always
popular, but often
discr
edited, idea of micropayments. Without rehashing all the old
arguments, micropayments only work in some very specific
circumstances, and do more to shrink a musicians potential market than
to grow it. The final idea is some sort of general tax on ISPs, which
has strong proponents but raises all sorts of problems concerning why
some users are subsidizing others and who gets how much money. Of
course, there
are other
business models that could work today, don't require a huge change
in the way things are done, and gives people real value for their
money: recognize that the music is a promotional tool for other stuff
(professional liner notes, fan clubs, concert tickets, clothing,
access to the band, backstage passes, you name it) and suddenly the
state of the recording industry doesn't seem so dire.
