Social Suicide







Social Suicide

Social Suicide 12/30/2003 01:27 AM

Why, thank you Mira (Finnish only). It's good to know that my nightmare now has a name.

And to everyone who clicked on her link and arrived to this site: Go away, if you value your sexual orientation.

No, seriously.

I just got a letter from an ex-potential ladyfriend, who proclaimed that "you are a crazy man - in fact, all men are crazy and I think I'll try women from now on." This happened about two hours after I had revealed the URL to this weblog in an otherwise innocuous email, in response to her claim that she had a worse sense of humor than me. Of course, the "stupid me" had to prove her wrong.

So welcome all - This is the blog that will make you a lesbian. (Catchy, ain't it?)

(And you still wonder why I'm feeling down? Man, I need a better impression management strategy.)

Actually, now that I'm on the subject... The cool thing about blogs and dating is that your blog will make you a better writer, and thus you will be able to write coherent, intelligent, witty text to your charmees. Well. Most of you will, anyway. But the uncool thing about blogs is that once your potential life-mate actually finds it - your relationship may suffer a mighty chink.

A blog can be a good filter, though, for weeding out those who wouldn't be able to cope with your sense of humour or view of life anyway - but that just means that if you are blogging under your own name, you'd darned be better to write what you really feel and think, and be prepared to stand up for it. Because sooner or later, someone will read it. I've had my share of old internet writings coming back to haunt me...

Anyway, I thank Mindy for putting this whole idea in my head in the first place, but perhaps I should stop referring people to this page as the "this is really me" page :)

Kevin Werbach points out that social networking sites like LinkedIn and Tribe and so forth have very little to offer highly connected people like Esther Dyson, who would nevertheless be a real asset to the network:
Esther and Pierre don't need LinkedIn to reach pretty much anyone they want to contact. Yet there are a whole lot of folks who want to reach them, and don't have a personal connection to do so. So the service worsens their email overload with little corresponding benefit.

Social Applications For Social Devices


Social Applications For Social Devices 07/13/2004 01:53 AM
The mobile phone, by its very nature is a "social" device. It's designed to help connect you to someone else. While most of the early efforts to create "mobile data" have come from a broadcast mindset (delivery produced content to an audience), it looks like some are finally realizing that mobile data apps need to be social to really catch on. If they're not making use of the mobile phone for what it's good for, then it's unlikely to get too much attention. MIT's Tech Review has a good overview of a variety of different "social" projects related to mobile devices, from the ever popular "Dodgeball" mobile social networking application to Fluidtime's dorm room washing machine SMS scheduler (and negotiator, should you find out you need the machine now and someone else has it booked). These are the types of applications that really are the future of mobile phones -- and not the ability to watch the latest reality TV series on your phone or to receive a marketing message from Disney.

The Degenerate Art of Suicide Bombing

This essay is not meant to be political but only a call for discussion on how to appropriately react to Degenerate Art. Recently, Israel's ambassador to Sweden, Zvi Mazel, physically attacked an art exhibit at a Stockholm museum because it "glorified suicide bombers." Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has praised his ambassador to Sweden. The ambassador, was among several hundred guests invited to the Museum of National Antiquities in Stockholm on Friday for an anti-genocide exhibition. "We want to give him a chance to explain himself," Anna Larsson, a spokeswoman for Sweden's Foreign Ministry, was quoted as saying by Agence France-Presse. "We feel that it is unacceptable for him to destroy art in this way."

There have been a number of issues during the past four years that have caused American voters to question the competency of G.W. Bush. From the war in Afghanistan to the war in Iraq, from Halliburton to Harken, the left has cried "foul" and the right has nodded its modest approval. This week, though, Bush has set himself up to alienate more Republican voters than any of his prior acts in the last four years.
