Ready Or Not, Here Comes RFID


Ready Or Not, Here Comes RFID 09/03/2004 03:05 AM
Privacy advocates worry about the impact RFID could have on consumers while labor unions fear the technology could cost jobs. Both groups had better brace themselves, because RFID is moving into the mainstream and it's probably too late to stop it. Metro Group, a major retailer in Europe, has just completed a test of the technology and plans to rapidly introduce it to help them squeeze costs out of their supply chain. In their tests, use of the tiny tags increased efficiency, decreased theft and allowed the store to more easily get their hands on merchandise, offering more choice to customers. The tests were not a total success as liquids and some metals continue to hamper detection of the tags, mainly when they were used on individual items as opposed to crates and pallets. High costs and technology shortcomings will probably keep the tags off individual items for quite some time, but not forever. The test results show that RFID can help deliver lower prices and more choice for consumers. So rather than oppose the technology under the vague notion that it is going to harm consumers and workers, it's time for those who are opposed to it to work together with those who are adopting the chips to ensure that legitimate privacy concerns are addressed. The potential risks of RFID can be solved with technology. Better ability for individuals to read and adjust their own RFIDs once out of the store is one solution, for example, but not enough work has been done in that area so far.

Eric's ready


Eric's ready 09/25/2004 03:23 AM

Next year's Etech should be interesting.

Eric (PeopleAggregator) Sigler has his proposal ready.

I'm waiting till Sunday to write mine up.

It'll be called "New Kinds of Micro-content" and I'll get all the leaders of each area - to appear - all at once united in our determination to get this to happen.

Meanwhile - here's Eric's post on his proposal:

Thinking out loud

So the deadline for Emerging Technology 2005 papers is the 27th. (You know, that geek thing in California I always go to).

In a disturbing sign of preparedness, I've actually been thinking more than 24 hours ahead, and so I've got some ideas for proposals. Beyond that, I'm actually planning out where I'm looking for ideas and where I'm not.

simplistic-small.jpg

It's not exactly Tufte, OK? Distance and positioning mean very little. Rather, this is a sort of blog tech tree, showing what the dependencies are to get from one thing to another. While it's rough, it does provide some interesting observations.


  1. Blogging software is at a very critical part of this setup, yet clearly makers of blogging software don't have the kind of chokehold that you would expect might happen. Interesting.

  2. All of the really new and interesting things are happening at the outer edge of this diagram. Does this mean I drew it badly, didn't fill in enough detail, or that the core of things are settling down?

  3. I threw in the note "social sharing" because I really didn't have the energy to try and break down all the incredible things happening lately in this area, but things like both del.icio.us and Flickr are in that category. Probably worth going over again and expanding out.

  4. The left-hand side of the diagram probably also needs to be tinkered with. I put the label "act of creation" in there because it's as generic as I wanted to think up. But there's lots of room to tinker with how certain types of information make it to the blogging software. (As evidenced by the recent hubub about what moblogging is or isn't).

  5. One disturbing thing that I wished I could put in here, but haven't found anyone really using widespread, is all the machine-readable licensing metadata out there. Screams for a plugin or two in my opinion.


You'll note I also use the label "proto-DLA" to describe where the blogging software resides. This is a tip of the hat to Mr. Canter, who has done a lot more thinking about this than anyone else in the world. (A "DLA" stands for a digital lifestyle aggregator, and while I can't tell you want the end product will look like, I have a feeling that blogging software is mutating in that direction.

I'll probably revisit / redo this tomorrow, but I just wanted to get what I had out in case life got busy again. So, what are your thoughts? On this diagram at least, there are several edge-pieces that could be connected together but aren't. What would be most important to you?

Getting Ready For Halloween


Getting Ready For Halloween 03/17/2005 03:09 AM

A few months ago, the wall clock in my living room mysteriously dropped onto the ground from where it's hanging, right at the stroke of midnight. (Or thereabout.) Closer examination shows no damage to the nail in the wall that hanged the clock. Anyway, that clock broke, and we replace it.

This morning, I woke up to discover my watch has stopped and one of the snaps broken. You guessed it -- the watch stopped;at just around midnight. (12.01 am)

Coincidence? I don't think so. :-)


Ready for Some Downtime?


Ready for Some Downtime? 04/20/2004 04:55 PM

A researcher in Milwaukee has discovered a nasty exploit of the TCP protocol that could give hackers a way to knock out entire segments of the Internet's backbones.

The vulnerability was discovered by a Paul "Tony" Watson, a computer researcher in Milwaukee, who found a way to remotely reset network connections via a denial-of-service (DoS) attack. The flaw affects both TCP and BGP (Border Gateway Protocol). BGP needs a persistent TCP connection between peers in order to route packets, so if the routers are reset, BGP goes into hibernation and traffic stops.

Sequence numbers in the packet headers usually make this exploit infeasible, but Tony has apparently figured out a way to guess the right sequence numbers in 4 tries. The nasty part is that the exploit is possible due to the design of TCP itself, not just some broken software. This one could be ugly.
