Smart Shopping Carts

Smart Shopping Carts 07/21/2004 01:14 PM

There are variety of useful things that could be done with an LCD on a shopping cart, and not all of them involve pornography. MSNBC takes a wireless-enable "Shopping Buddy" cart out for a spin and walks away pretty impressed, finding it to make shopping a lot more convenient and, surprisingly, fun. Simple things like being able to place an order in the deli and receive a notice when its ready to pick up sound great. And emailing a shopping list from home to the cart? Sign me up. I have left my shopping list at home literally the last three times I've gone out, and it takes a lot of effort to remember if I needed a 750ml or 1750ml bottle and whether or not we needed whippets.

Union Worried About High Tech Shopping
Carts

Union Worried About High Tech Shopping
Carts 12/03/2003 12:18 PM
We've had plenty of stories about high tech shopping carts, but this latest NPR story (found on Politech) is a bit surprising. It starts out normally enough, talking about how everyone loves these new shopping carts that help them find products they want, while also keeping track of how much they're spending. The carts also allow for additional features, such as letting you make "remote" orders to the deli counter while you shop elsewhere in the store. The odd part, though, is in the later part of the segment when they talk to a union representative who complains about how these terrible shopping carts are going to take away jobs. You would think, by this point, unions would understand how technology works, and that if the technology really is useful, their industry is simply going to change. Fighting against it does no good for anyone. It just makes consumers less happy while doing nothing to actually prevent the technology from moving forward. In the meantime, as wonderful as these shopping carts sound, I'd bet there's going to be plenty of job openings for folks to repair them. It wasn't that long ago that shopping carts everywhere started showing up with little "calculators" to help shoppers total up their purchases. I don't think I ever saw one that wasn't smashed. Keeping a fully computerized system running is likely to take a lot more work.

Web services are a distributed computing architecture - as are Common Object Request Broker (CORBA), Advanced Program-to-Program Communications (APPC), Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), and dozens of other preceding architectures. The purpose of a distributed computing architecture is to enable programs in one environment to communicate and share data/content with programs in another environment. In the past, programmers have had to tell one application program where to go to find another cooperative program (known as “tightly…

programming for Mac OS X 05/28/2004 06:17 PM
This article is excerpted from the newly published book Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X, Second Edition. Assuming you have installed the developer tools, you will find Xcode in /Developer/Applications/. Drag the application to the dock at the bottom of your screen; you will be using it a lot. Launch Xcode. Xcode will keep track of all the resources that go into your application. All these resources will be kept in a directory called the project directory. The first step in developing a new application is to create a new project directory with the default skeleton of an application.

SmartWorlds Offers Free Book Shopping
Software 12/08/2003 04:45 PM
SmartWorlds software lets PDA users shop and learn more about books while they're in a bookstore: The service is already in use in Boston at Trident Booksellers on Newbury Street, with access provided by Michael Oh's NewburyOpen.net Wi-Fi network. SmartWorlds is now offering the software free to anyone. Users can punch in the ISBN number of a book while they're standing in a bookstore. Users are connected to Amazon.com's site where they can read reviews of the book, check pricing, and see other books recommended by readers. In Boston, Trident is considered an affiliate of Amazon so if users of this service later buy one of the books they browsed for on Amazon, Trident earns a commission. I'd love to see people use this in the big chain bookshops which probably wouldn't want people to use it for fear of losing business....

My second article for SitePoint has been published: Simple tricks for more usable forms. It examines a whole bunch of CSS and Javascript tricks for improving the usability of web based forms without impairing their accessibility to clients that don't support those technologies. The article has already had some useful feedback on the forums, including the valuable observation that auto-selecting the contents of a form field when it receives the focus can have a negative effect on the usability of Unix browsers, where mouse buttons are frequently used for coping and pasting.
