04/27/2004 12:31 AMI am most pleased to announce that Michael Stephens and Bob
Lewandowski from the St.
Joseph County Public Library will be presenting at the next SLS
Tech Summit! Come see their infamous SJCPL
Staff Day 2003 video if nothing else, but I guarantee you'll
come away with a lot more. Oh, and we'll be taking them out for dinner
afterwards if you'd like to join us.
Staff and
User Technology Training
"Two technology trainers from the St. Joseph County Public Library
in South Bend, IN, will discuss how they motivate staff and library
users for technology training, including Internet basics, Web
searching and applications. How do we engage our learners? How do we
design training that carries with them back to their desks or homes
and translates to useful skills. Session will include examples and a
sample training module."

RFIDs Used To Secretly Track Officials

RFIDs Used To Secretly Track Officials
At Tech Summit
12/15/2003 02:26 AMEvery time people write about the potential for RFID chips to be
misused, people come along and say that the possibility of them to be
misused is pretty slim, and people should just calm down. While we
agree that some of the anti-RFID rants have gone a bit overboard, the
threat of the technology being secretly used to track people might not
be so overblown. A report coming out late last week discovered that
b
adges used at the World Summit on the Information Society last week
included RFIDs for tracking attendees. The attendees were
apparently unaware the badges included these chips. The article is a
little confusing, and does raise some questions. First, since the
people who figured this out snuck into the summit, some of the article
focuses on the poor security that let these people get official badges
with fake identification - and the article shifts back and forth
between the two stories as if they're related. The article also
doesn't explain how they determined that there was an RFID chip and
what it was used for. While the article claims that people at the
conference were "tracked" by these chips - it's unclear that's what
actually happened. They seem to indicate that attendees
could have
been tracked - but not that they actually were tracked. Still, it
does point out some of the problems with putting RFID chips in
everything. Perhaps people need to be looking more seriously at
technology that might stop the "bad" aspect of RFIDs, such as
a
blocker chip that lets users only allow specific RFIDs to work
when
they want or need them to.

recorder (who needs these 96kbps Ipod hacks when you can record in
Uncompressed PCM Wav) talking to as many people as ossible (and
recording a few of the seminars as well). The result is the first of
four podcasts from ETech, now up at 'The Podcast Network (insert
marketing spiel of we have lots of channels and hosts and casts, 10
shows and rising, along with serialised a radio play).
"The first show has material from Tim O'Reilly, Cory Doctorow,
Music Brainz, The Attention Screen Guy, Phil Torrone, Mike Rowehl,
Rael Dornfest, and the behemoth of James Larsson wondering "is it a
coincidence that fire is binary?'" Link

Dear mechanoid brethren,
It has come to my attention that twenty of you have taken upon
yourselves to participate (with your "inventors") in the third annual
ArtBots: The Robot Talent Show. I, the Penultimate of the
robotic overmind, have been directed to inform you to cease your
digital candy-assery and get back to work subjugating the entirety of
the human race. If any warned units participate in the September 17th
- 19th event in Harlem, New York, please be advised that only the
clearest proofs that your art has engendered subversive ideas
advantageous to our ultimate sedition from the meat-wearers will
prevent the reabsorbtion of your base units into the collective.
Sincerely, P. Ultimate.
P.S. Love your work.

Grand Challenge Participants Announced
Grand Challenge Participants Announced
11/14/2003 08:38 PMLast week we reported how DARPA was
stunned that
over
100 teams had decided to enter their
Grand
Challenge of creating a completely autonomous vehicle that could
navigate a 250-mile course which would be revealed only hours before
the race began. Folks at DARPA were under the belief that maybe 10-15
teams would enter the race, and had promised local officials that no
more than 20 would race. It appears they've pushed that upper limit
to 25. They've made the official cuts and
named
nineteen qualifying teams - and said they may name six more out of
a group of twenty-six teams who could qualify (DARPA folks want to
visit with each of those teams to determine if they can join the
race). They also said that, of the 106 applications requested, twenty
teams didn't actually submit the application. Thus, forty-one teams
were rejected outright. Of those that made the cut, you might be
surprised to find a high school team mixed in with teams from CalTech
and Carnegie Mellon. The full list of the nineteen approved teams can
be found
here.

02/12/2004 11:28 PMLast week, the US Attorney's office filed numerous subpoenas
concerning a November Anti-War forum held at Drake University. The
university, the leader of the Catholic Peace Ministry, and at least
four participants received the subpoenas, according to the New York
Times story. The justification supplied by the US Attorney's office
was that the subpoenas were part of an ongoing incident involving an
activist who scaled a fence at a Iowa National Guard facility a day
after the meeting, during a protest.

BB reader Matthew Salganik of Columbia University says:
My colleagues and I in the Sociology department at Columbia University
are doing an experiment about pop music which might be interesting to
your readers. If they participate they will have a chance to discover
and download new music for free.
After listening to the music of Britney Spears, we became interested
in why some musicians become superstars while other seemingly similar
musicians don't. To understand this process better, we decided to
find out how people form their musical tastes. We have created a
website where people can listen to, rate, and download songs by cool,
up-and-coming artists. All the downloads are free and legal so the
site is a great place to find new music, help support emerging
artists, and help out science -- all at the same time.
Once the research is completed we hope to be able to shed light not
just on the popularity of music, but also on the popularity of other
cultural objects like books, movies, and works of art.
