It's not very often that the worlds of celebrities and gadgets intersect (like that time when the "Dude you're getting a Dell" dude got arrested right in front of our apartment here in New York), but some thieves made off with Michelle Branch's laptop, cellphone, and iPod during a daring heist at the Aladdin Hotel and Casino where she was staying while attending the 2003 Radio Music Awards in Las Vegas. Oh, and they also stole a million dollars worth of jewelry from Nelly, but this isn't a jewelry blog, so we don't care about that. Read...

Gartner Analyst Warns: Corporate Thieves

Steal 07/06/2004 10:07 AM

ZDNetUK has a story about one analyst's quest for relevancy as he warns companies of the gaping, oozing security risk that is the iPod. The idea, according to the yapping Gartner groupie, is that the iPod and other portable devices could be used to introduce viruses or -- hold on to your hat, or anyone's hat; just get one in your hand -- copy data. How is your hat? Okay, great. Mine, too.

I remember the last scourge of data security we had like this. What was it called again? Oh, the floppy disk, right. I'm sure the network administrators are quaking in their Tevas.

There no better news than hearing there's a new release from the Kleptones.

I haven't heard it yet, but just started the torrent downloading.

Update: It took hours to come down via BT (bittrickle). I've only gotten through three tracks, but it's amazing so far, tons of classic samples. And Andy's on it for a fast direct download. Highly recommended bit of illegal art.

Oh No, Technology Is Going To Steal Your
Job... Again 06/25/2004 12:11 PM
This is getting a bit tiresome, but it looks like now that people are finally starting to calm down about offshoring, they're suddenly up in arms about automation. First there was the complaint a few months ago saying we should stop working on certain technologies in order to save jobs. Now, Strategy Analytics, an analyst firm that should know better than to put out overhyped reports that don't understand history is saying that offshoring is nothing compared to how automation will kill mid-level service jobs. Once again, all you need to do is look at history to show this is wrong. Every time automation removes the need for certain jobs, it's opened up many more opportunities, often expanding the overall economy and raising our standards of living. It wasn't that long ago that you needed a human operator to connect every phone call. However, once we figured out how to automate that process, it didn't necessarily mean a destruction of all those operator jobs, but a new revolution in telephony which expanded so many businesses and created so many new jobs that no one could have imagined when the "operator" process was first automated. It's getting repetitive to say it, but innovation is not a zero-sum game. Automating a job doesn't just mean that the jobs go away, but that many more new opportunities open up.
