Hello to 'Broadcasting House'
listeners...
06/17/2005 03:22 PMA brief welcome to everyone who listened to Broadcasting House this morning and find themselves on
plasticbag.org for the first time. If you're looking for posts about
weblogs then I can recommend the Persona
l Publishing archive. If you're unfamiliar with weblogs, then
probably the best way to describe them is as a launchpad to express
your opinions, engage in conversations and note stuff down in public.
I've been writing this particular weblog since November 1999,
when it was very informal and only for a few friends. Today all kinds
of people seem to get value from it. At the moment those people seem
(weirdly) to be Doctor Who fans who have seized a little post I wrote a couple of weeks
ago and have decided to use it as a launchpad for slightly
over-the-top theorising. I think that post got sixty comments
yesterday alone. To be honest, I couldn't be more delighted.
I'm probably more known for my thoughts on
social software, future media consumption and net
culture in general. I'm also in the process of trying to
find my father and I write about that whenever I get any news. If
you want to know more about me then I can recommend reading About Tom Coates. If
you're interested in finding out more about corporate weblogging in
general then I can recommend posts by Scobleizer
, Anil
Dash and an article called The Unbearable
Rightness of Nick Denton. Nice to have you with us!

06/05/2004 04:32 PMIsn't the recording industry silly for trying this? I'm glad it's
wasting its time on this fool's errand. I hope Veritouch gets millions
from the RIAA for this rotten idea, which has a zero percent chance of
catching on.
The RIAA is hoping that a new breed of music player which
requires biometric authentication will put an end to file sharing.
Established biometric vendor Veritouch has teamed up with Swedish
design company to produce iVue: a wireless media player that allows
content producers to lock down media files with biometric security.
This week Veritouch announced that it had demonstrated the device to
the RIAA and MPAA.

IBM Believes In Spam For A Spam
Vigilante Revenge
03/22/2005 05:03 PMIt seems that larger companies are really getting pissed off at
spammers these days. While going out and attacking spammers used to be
more limited to net.vigilantes, some well known companies have been
taking stronger approaches to fighting spam lately. A few months back
there was
Lycos
' plan to let anyone download a screensaver that would launch
distributed denial of service attacks on spammers. While Lycos claimed
it wouldn't take anyone offline, it wasn't long before
that
was proven false. Next up on the list is IBM, whose latest
anti-spam offering will
send data right
back at spamming machines in an effort to slow them down. It's
not quite a distributed denial of service attack -- it's more like a
centralized one. It's sort of one step up beyond
greyl
isting which just slows down the spam. Instead, this tries to
slow down the computer sending the spam. Again, this leaves IBM open
to charges of hitting back too hard -- especially if innocent sites
get taken offline in the process. Still, when large companies like
IBM start offering products like this, you know that people are
getting fed up.
Are Speakerphone Mobile Calls Less
Annoying Than Regular Calls?
Are Speakerphone Mobile Calls Less
Annoying Than Regular Calls?
04/21/2004 03:53 PMLast week we noted a new study saying that
people get
annoyed with others talking on mobile phones because they only hear
one half of the conversation. At the time, I wrote that this made
sense as periods of silence followed by talking are a lot more jarring
to the passive listener. However, this BBC report claims that the
reason for the annoyance
is that it
shows that we're more curious about what the other party is
saying. I'm not sure I buy that. It seems much more likely that it's
the variability in noise, from silent to noisy rather than any form of
curiosity. When the conversation is at a constant hum (even when
loud), it's much easier to tune it out. Still, the findings do go
against the opinion many people have expressed that things like
"push-to-talk" where the phone usually acts as a speaker phone would
be more annoying since we get to hear both sides of the conversation.
In fact, the researchers behind the study are even suggesting that
mobile phone makers may want to explore adding speaker phones to more
phones to make them
less annoying. Of course, the study only
set up two conditions: a conversation on a mobile phone and a
face-to-face conversation. They didn't test the speaker phone
situation to see how annoying that was. It's possible that the
annoyance factor comes from the inability to make use of body language
to express concepts as well, leading to a different tone of voice.

Olympics Shut Down Online Radio Stream
Of Radio Stations
08/16/2004 02:27 PMIt appears the folks running the Olympics are so focused on
controlling (i.e., "selling") the rights to broadcast accounts of the
Olympic games that they're
forcing
some radio stations to shut down their internet streams. The
radio stations in question have regular radio broadcast rights for the
Olympics, but since they didn't pay up to internet broadcast rights,
they need to turn off their internet streams for the duration of the
games. Considering the fact that it appears that no one is actually
attending these games in person, apparently, the Olympics has decided
that they're going to squeeze broadcasters for every last penny. Ah,
the spirit of the games.
