[N]ot exactly fast food. The look of the stores is quite
different -- Chipotle meets Starbucks, but they still have the classic
tacos. There are two of these stores in San Diego - pilot stores.
They're like concept cars, but restaurants.
Non sequitur: One of my first geek jobs was working in
a sweatshop
full of nerds an Internet Professional Services Firm in San Diego.
One of my first big client meetings there was a bid for a redesign of
the Jack in the Box website, which had only just launched the year
prior. This was, like, the paleolithic era of the Interweb. Anyway, in
the pitch meeting, one of my co-workers -- a webmonkey who really
wanted to be an ad man -- said to the Jack in the Box execs, "Come on,
nobody actually comes to your restaurant because the food tastes any
good -- we're selling IMMERSIVE USER EXPERIENCE here, not flavor." We
lost the bid.

E-mail is the jack of all trades, but the master of none. There are
better ways to transfer files, hold discussions, deliver
notifications, broadcast newsletters, schedule meetings, work
collaboratively, and manage personal information. But even though
e-mail isn't the best tool for any of these tasks, it provides a
single interface to all of them. Here's a challenge: Let's improve the
various functions performed by e-mail without multiplying the
interfaces people must learn in order to use those functions. [Full
story at InfoWorld.com]
A favorite example of mine is RSS. It's an inherently opt-in,
spam-free channel of communication that can replace certain of email's
most broken functions: broadcast newsletters, notifications. But, as
NewsGator shows us, RSS can
still look and feel like email to the user.

Industry About Copy Protection
Microsoft Talking To The Recording
Industry About Copy Protection
09/17/2004 02:31 PMIt looks like Cory Doctorow's talk to Microsoft about
why
copy protection is bad for everyone -- including the recording
industry, customers, and Microsoft itself -- didn't have much of an
impact. Microsoft is now
in talks with the
recording industry about how to build copy protection into their
next generation operating system to make sure you can't actually do
what you want with the music you buy. Of course, this is likely to be
an expensive waste of time that will only annoy legitimate buyers by
causing problems. The people who really want to copy music will
figure out workarounds. The large counterfeiters will already have
big workarounds, so it won't impact their business at all. The only
people impacted will be people who want to do perfectly legitimate
things with the music they bought, but find out they're blocked
because Microsoft and the recording industry doesn't trust them.

A well-known
programmer has released an
application to the Web, which
allows users to defeat the anti-copying measures underpinning
Apple's iTunes
downloading service .
The application, QTFairUse, removes the digital rights management (
DRM ) layer from the target sound file, using a QuickTime
stream, leaving the music untouched and capable of infinite
copying.
Based on the name and Web commentary, the goal of the hack is to
promote the creator's notion of fair use . Some suspect a Windows iTunes
version is on the
way .

Now Books Can Have Copy Protection Too
Now Books Can Have Copy Protection Too
12/10/2003 03:27 AMWhile the publishing industry has always had an uneasy relationship
with the photocopier, they've pretty much accepted the fact that you
simply can't copy protect printed materials. That may be changing.
Ricoh has announced that they've created a copier that
will
block the copying of confidential documents. The way it works is
that when the original documents are printed, they need to include
special, barely visible dots, which can be understood by the copier as
copy protection. But, only on that copier. How far do you think this
idea is going to go? Here's a copier that actually offers less
functionality and requires people to do something extra when printing
out documents, while making sure that the only copiers around are
equipped with this special anti-copying technology. Otherwise, the
person who tries to copy a document and can't will simply walk down
the hall (or down the street to a Kinko's) and copy it somewhere else.
This is like putting weak copy protection on a CD and then saying
"well, the copy protection only works if you use these special CD
players."

One More Reason Why Copy Protection
Isn't The Issue
One More Reason Why Copy Protection
Isn't The Issue
04/07/2005 12:55 PMA recurring theme over the past month or so as many folks seem to be
bringing back the "content is king" meme, is that all of these
broadcast content creation companies are completely missing the point.
On both the
inter
net and
on
mobile phones, people are using them to
communicate, not to
passively consume content. The Guardian is now running an article
from someone who just recognized this. He has a TV, so he doesn't
really want more TV content via his internet connection. He wants to
be able to
c
ommunicate with friends and family -- which means creating his own
content and sharing other content. This is the main reason why all of
these attempts at copy protection and locking up content behind walls
is misguided online. All it does is make the content that much less
valuable, because it can't be discussed and it can't be shared.
Trying to copy protect content is thinking about how to make the
internet act more like a TV -- but we already have TVs. The internet
and mobile phones are about communicating and
user generated
content. Copy protection doesn't help anyone communicate -- it just
makes it more difficult.

Misleading With Statistics On Copy
Protection
Misleading With Statistics On Copy
Protection
03/19/2005 03:18 AMThis one is just bizarre. In a recent study, about copy protection, a
research firm is claiming that
"consumers are not
overwhelmingly antagonistic" towards copy protection. Even if
this was true, it wouldn't prove that copy protection is good for
business. Consumers may simply be ignorant about copy protection and
what it means for them and for future offerings. However, the
real
issue is that the actual stats don't seem to support the
conclusion at all. The study compared how many people would buy a
"copy once" CD at a lower price, and found that 33% of those who don't
rip CDs would buy the cheaper copy protected CD. That means 67% of
those who
don't copy CDs wouldn't buy a copy protected CD
even if it were noticeably cheaper. That is, even though it
provides no direct benefit to them (they don't rip, so why should they
care), they still won't buy it. That certainly makes it sound like
users are
quite antagonistic to copy protection. Even those
who it won't directly impact don't want it at a cheaper price. How
can anyone claim this means users aren't antagonistic to the idea with
a straight face when the data clearly shows the opposite?

02/01/2005 09:57 PMMicrosoft and copy-protection company Macrovision have struck a deal
that will add a new layer of anticopying defenses to video content
being swapped between home devices.
The two companies said that Microsoft had licensed Macrovision's
technology, which aims to stop people from making copies using analog
connections between devices, such as those that typically link a
set-top box to a television.
The deal could make it harder for consumers to make permanent copies
of TV shows and movies without permission, if they use computers
running the Windows operating system. It should also help convince
movie studios and other content producers to release their products in
new ways online, the companies said.
"We think that long term, the studios will offer more interesting
products over the Internet using this technology," said Brad Brunell,
Microsoft's general manager of intellectual-property licensing.

Suing The Music Industry For Copy
Protection
01/05/2004 04:55 AMA Belgian consumer watchdog group, Test-Achats, is now
suing some of
the big record labels for installing copy protection on their CDs.
The article is a little unclear on what legal basis they seem to be
suing - but it sounds like it's one of two things (or possibly both):
(1) the CDs are not clearly labeled and don't play on certain
equipment, meaning that they're defective or (2) by adding copy
protection, the CD takes away the rights of users to make personal
copies. While I do think copy protection is a costly and pointless
tool used by the recording industry, I'm not sure there's much of a
case here (other than - perhaps - on the labeling issue). I don't
think there's any legal reason why the industry should be prevented
from putting copy protection on their CDs. I just think it's a bad
business decision that will add to the cost while making the product
worse for consumers. However, if the industry wants to shoot itself
in the foot, that's completely up to them.
Update: In related
news, a
consortium of big name players in the tech world are trying
to come up with a new copy protection scheme that they say will work.
It's designed to allow for limited copying and sharing, while also
taking into account the fact that most people want their content to be
portable. Of course, like every other content protection scheme it
will be broken very quickly - and thus, will only inconvenience
legitimate users.
