05/26/2004 06:02 AMThe Rio Cali is our favorite player of the bunch -- hands-down. This
player is especially appealing for its great functionality and
excellent interface design. By Mathew Honan, Macworld (via

[This is an edited version of the talk I gave last fall at the
State of Play
conference.]
I'm sort of odd-man-out in a Games and Law conference, in that my
primary area of inquiry isn't games but social software. Not only am I
not a lawyer, I don't even spend most of my time thinking about game
problems. I spend my time thinking about software that supports group
interaction across a fairly wide range of social patterns.
So, instead of working from case law out, which has been a theme here
(and here's where I insert the "I am not a lawyer" disclaimer) I'm
going to propose a thought experiment looking from the outside in.
And I want to pick up on something that Julian [Dibbell] said earlier
about game worlds: 'users are the state.' The thought experiment I
want to propose is to agree with that sentiment, and to ask "How far
can we go in that direction?"
Instead of looking for the places where game users are currently suing
or fighting one another, forcing the owners of various virtual worlds
to deal with these things one crisis at a time, I want to ask the
question "What would happen if we wanted to build a world where we
maximized the amount of user control? What would that look like?"
I'm going to make that argument in three pieces. First, I'm going to
do a little background on group structure and the tension between the
individual and the group. Then I want to contrast briefly governance
in real and virtual worlds. Finally I want to propose a thought
experiment on placing control of online spaces in the hands of the
users.

Exit Strategy How to
get out of
the quagmire that is Iraq:
To implement this exit strategy, we will have to practice
running quickly. It is further recommended that, while running, the
eyes be cast down, to avoid witnessing any last-minute people trying
to kill us. We will have to establish excellent communications so that
the moment that final person begins dying, we can all begin running
quickly at the same time, eyes cast down, quickly, to our vehicles, to
get to the airport and get out of the country.

12/19/2004 03:31 PMI would begin letting the Iraqis know now that we are planning on
turning most of their country back over to them as soon as they have
elected a "legitimate" government and that we arbitrarily accept the
unlikelihood that the January elections will yield such a thing....
Of course the Iraqis, or more precisely, the Iraqi Arabs would be none
too keen on it, but there is a good chance they will already be too
involved in civil war by then to have much energy for re-taking a
well-defended Kurdistan.

Exit the MATRIX
Exit the MATRIX
02/10/2004 02:51 AMJane Black at Businessweek Online reports that more than half of the
states that signed up for the MATRIX law-enforcement database have
quit it. The Multistate Anti-Terrorism Information Exchange lets the
police draw on multiple databases to create instant dossiers on, well,
anyone they want. Here are Jane's conclusions: There's no doubt that
MATRIX raises privacy red flags, though after an extensive briefing by
the Florida Law Enforcement Dept., which is spearheading the project,
I believe that it's little more than an efficient way to query
multiple databases. The real furor over MATRIX demonstrates something
much more important — and...

Exit Interviews by Gallup
Exit Interviews by Gallup
03/13/2003 10:14 AMMarybeth is skeptical
about a call she got from Gallup, ostensibly to conduct an exit
interview about her leaving MSFT. It could very well be
legitimate. I blogged about
this two years ago, and I still think it's a good idea; especially
in cases like Marybeth's, where the employee is otherwise hesitant to
be candid.
On the other hand, just because someone has your phone number and
claims to be from Gallup doesn't necessarily mean that they are
legitimate. Not everyone who cold calls me at home is a criminal
running a scam, but I don't feel like I've missed out on anything
special by acting as if they are.
~
Marybeth's story and some of the responses in blogland have spurred
me to collect my thoughts on the topic of "difficult work
situations". I've written about the subject here in the past,
but would like to post something more comprehensive. Hopefully
soon...
