No one deserves this man


No one deserves this man 03/19/2003 10:45 PM
My sister was watching BBC. She's a real anglophile and still thinks BBC is the best news channel. Over dinner we watched a bit of Tony Blair's war speech in parliament. He said something like "Iraq is a wealthy country that in 1978, the year before Saddam seized power, was richer than Portugal or Malaysia. Today Iraq is impoverished, 60% of its population dependent on food aid. "

Frankly I am against the US invasion of Iraq. First I think there is insufficient evidence. And even if there were evidence, I think that for USA to act as if Iraq is satan while North Korea is ignored because the Koreans are better armed (and have less oil) is hypocritical.

However no one deserves a leader like Saddam. As a Malaysian, this was brought home to me by Tony Blair's analogy. There appears to be no turning back. If the US does declare war, then good riddance to a despicable man.

Sean O'Mahoney New Excilan CEO


Sean O'Mahoney New Excilan CEO 05/10/2004 11:31 AM
FatPort's Sean O'Mahoney is cell-payment-enabler Excilan's new CEO: We rarely cover management changes at Wi-Fi Networking News, but O'Mahoney's move is worth noting. O'Mahoney helped build FatPort from a small Vancouver, BC (Canada), company with an interesting hardware platform in 2001 into Canada's dominant hotspot provider and platform reseller. While the four Canadian cellular telephone carriers have made roaming announcements and issued press releases, they have yet to build out a presence, and may have just a handful of hotspots by year's end among them. FatPort has 140 locations according to their Web site, mostly centered in British Columbia. But their platform has allowed them to resell their managed services and hardware/software combo, and will potentially yield hundreds of additional locations this year, most of which will include free roaming across FatPort's own network. O'Mahoney--along with Rick Ehrlinspiel of Surf and Sip--has been most aggressive in offering bilateral fee-free roaming agreements, having aggregated over 800 locations worldwide for their customers through these agreements. Unlike models in Europe, in which roaming means paying extra to use non-local networks but using a single login, FatPort's model offers a single login and a fixed monthly rate no matter which partner network is being used. Excilan is a natural fit for O'Mahoney's approach. Excilan's technology allows hotspot operators to partner with cellular carriers without building client software that an end user must install nor assigning new usernames and accounts to cell owners. In the Excilan system, you visit a hotspot's gateway page and enter your cellular telephone number. If your carrier is part of the Excilan system, your phone rings and an automated system asks you to authorize a charge. When you agree, the charge shows up on your bill at the negotiated rate your carrier has with the hotspot operator, and your laptop or handheld is authenticated through the back-end. FatPort is the only North American network user of Excilan, while mostly European cell carriers have signed up to enable their subscribers. Overall, nearly 50 hotspot networks are involved worldwide partnered with 14 cell carriers with 23 million customers. In an email interview, O'Mahoney said, "For the Excilan system to reach its full potential we have to extend our reach into U.S./North American market as quickly as possible." He added that the rest of the Americas were also important. O'Mahoney also hopes to work with other aggregators of hotspot networks to help make...

Sean Parker kicked out of Plaxo


Sean Parker kicked out of Plaxo 04/21/2004 03:26 AM

Although I had some problems with the Plaxo model, I hate hearing stories like this. Sean Parker, the founder and visionary behind Plaxo was kicked out rather rudely by the VCs. I don't know the details, but it sounds bad.

The company sent out an anonymous, terse statement that Parker is ``no longer with Plaxo,'' but called him a ``visionary, creative entrepreneur'' and ended with: ``We thank him for his hard work and wish him well.''

In reality, though, a source said Parker has been locked out, and everyone at the company has been instructed not to talk with Parker, except by way of the company's lawyer, Ray Hickson.

When contacted and asked whether this arrangement is ``normal,'' Hickson said: ``I can't discuss a client personnel matter with newspaper reporters.''

Parker himself issued a terse statement: ``While the company is moving to a new stage of its growth, the management team remains committed to executing my original vision,'' he said. ``The company remains in capable hands.''

I've founded several companies and as companies grow, the skills required to be the chief executive change. When I've founded (or helped found) companies in the past, I've usually stepped aside to allow someone with better administrative and sales skills to lead the company after it's up and running. This was the case with Digital Garage and PSINet Japan and to a certain extent Infoseek Japan. I seem to be the most useful getting things going, not running them.

As a VC/investor, I've seen my share of visionary CEOs who can't run the company, but we usually try to keep them involved in some way and stay on good terms so we can invest in their next good company. I don't see how you can continue being a VC in the valley being cruel to serial entrepreneurs.

Pierre Omidyar of eBay is probably one of the best examples of knowing when to bring on a real CEO, but staying involved as the founder. I think he and his investors were smart about this.

You don't have to be a fan of Frank Quattrone to doubt, now that he's been found guilty of three felonies, whether justice has been done. When a trial judge appears as biased as the one in this case apparently did, how can a trial be fair? But if the Quattrone case -- however it turns out in the end -- does anything to help drain Silicon Valley's ethical swamp, it will have served a valuable purpose.

A call to AT&T Wireless Wi-Fi was a waste of time, the lady I talked to was clueless. The funny part is that I got far enough into the process to receive an 'Thank you for registering for the AT&T Wireless e-Wallet' e-mail. The correspondent notes, There's a Starbucks at the other end of the station (I have an account with them) and hopefully the McDonald's also in the station will work again soon. And then Verizon which works from the McDonald's on 7th Ave. if you sit close enough to the front window....

Open maps of London event: April 14,
London


Open maps of London event: April 14,
London
04/04/2005 06:24 AM
Cory Doctorow: The Open Knowledge Forums are a series of lectures and panel discussions about the ways that "open knowledge" can benefit the public interest. The next one is a week away, in London, and it's about a plan to produce a set of public domain maps of London (London's maps were produced at tax-payer expense, but can't be freely used; rather, you have to pay the ordinance survey thousands of pounds for the privilege; by contrast, US government maps are free and plentiful, and form the basis for thousands and thousand of competing mapping efforts, from Michelin guides to Google Maps).

There are a number of interesting proposals for this, including deploying an army of GPS-wielding geohackers, and buying up Russian satellite photos of London. Check out this squib from last January's NTK:

London's geowanking fraternity have come up with an intriguing proposition. With a grand's worth of Russian 1-meter resolution satellite pics, they believe they can stitch together an entirely free, redistributable vector database of the capital, freed from the shackles of the Ordnance Survey's restrictive copyrights, and thus open to all manner of GPL-style repurposing.
Here are the details:
* When: Thurs April 14th 2005, 7-9pm

* Where: Stanhope Centre, Marble Arch, London. [WWW]Directions

* Who can attend: public. Registration is optional but useful so please notify us if you can via okforums-info@okfn.org.

* Speakers: Steve Coast of openstreetmap.org; Roger Longhorn (geodata policy expert); Giles Lane of urbantapestries.net; Jo Walsh of mappinghacks.com

Off to London


Off to London 02/01/2005 09:26 PM

I'm leaving for London in a couple of hours. I'll probably be posting a bit while I'm there as time and connectivity permit...hopefully some photos as well.

Packing this morning, I came up with a list of the extra stuff that I need to do before going to the airport now that everyone's a terrorist until proven innocent** and the major airlines are all about to go out of business:

  • Clip my fingernails. With nail clippers verboten on planes, you need to do it before you leave.
  • Silence my electric toothbrush. Last time I traveled, my toothbrush turned on in my luggage and the battery was long dead when I got home. Luckily I can plug the power cord into the brush to prevent it from turning on, lest some anxious baggage screener thinks it's a buzzing bomb and/or illegal sexual device.
  • Leave ridiculously early. I am a single male traveling alone on an American Airlines flight to Heathrow on a ticket purchased not so long ago...I'm pretty sure that I'm going to get pulled aside for a "random" screening. My only hope: my summer tan has faded and I'm white as can be (Non-Terrorist White is the hottest color for pants at J. Crew this season)...come on, wave whitey through!
  • Wardrobe change. Gotta wear pants that don't require a belt and shoes that can be slipped on and off with ease.
  • Eat. You may get food on the plane, you may not. With random screenings come random feedings and I don't like my odds in either case.

** The Jan/Feb 2005 Atlantic Monthly has a couple of great articles on terrorism...here's a relevant snippet from Success Without Victory (subscribers only) by James Fallows:

Screening lines at airports are perhaps the most familiar reminder of post-9/11 security. They also exemplify what's wrong with the current approach.

Many of the routines and demands are silly, eroding rather than building confidence in the security regime of which they are part. "You can't go through an airport line without thinking 'This is dumb,'" says Graham Allison, the author of the recent Nuclear Terrorism: The Ultimate Preventable Catastrophe, and the director of the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, at Harvard, which conducts many projects on anti-terrorism and security. "You have two people whose job it is to see if the name on your driver's license is the same as the name on your ticket -- as if any self-respecting terrorist would fail to think of that. You have a guy whose job is to shout out a reminder for you to take off your jacket and get your computer out of your bag. You've got one-year-olds taking off their shoes. It is hard to think of a way you could caricature it to make it look sillier." At the same time, the ritual manages to be intimidating, as a standing reminder of how much Americans have to fear.

Oh, sweet London


Oh, sweet London 12/30/2003 01:24 AM
This city is most certainly a place where it's impossible to get bored. Yesterday, after an early arrival, we went to see the Lord of the Rings exhibition at Science Museum, which was very well worth the rather steep 12£ admission: some of the miniatures are simply amazing, Sauron and the ringwraiths can scare you witless even if seen from a distance, but the best part are some of the paintings and sketches: I felt like any weak-minded creature in front of the Ring as I let my eyes rest upon the artwork of Sauron overseeing his troops at the plains of Gorgoroth... This must be mine - my precioussss...

Afterwards, we were - completely accidentally - treated to the artwork of Yann Arthus-Bertrand, who had an outdoor exhibition of 3x2 meter photographs outside the Natural History Museum. Go see the stuff this guy shoots - some of it is quite simply breathtaking. Especially in large size.

Anyhow, the tournament looks like it's going to be a good one: plenty of nice people all around, good location, relaxed schedule... Well, I might still lose all of my games :)

Unfortunately, I am not able to get GPRS roaming work, so it looks like no moblogging. I even forgot all of my USB leads home, so I can't even upload any pictures. Oh well.

Back from London


Back from London 02/05/2005 10:18 PM

Back from London and up at the ungodly hour of 7:00 AM ET after getting to bed at 1:30 AM ET, which was the minute I got home from the airport. Still, six hours of sleep is better than none hours. I'm going to use the time to get some stuff done...lots of exciting and dread-inspiring things to do in the next couple of weeks. Trip pictures are forthcoming; luckily my camera battery lasted the whole time despite the charger being thousands of miles away and I took lots of photos.

But quickly, I learned a few additional travel tips on this trip (to add to the list):

  • Never purchase a US to UK power outlet converter at a Canadian/Australian ex-pat shop. It will fail to work after a day or so. I practically had to splash water on it to get a good connection.
  • When going through security at the airport, don't wear a shirt that depicts a little girl blowing her head off with a gun, even though her splattered brains turn into butterflies.
  • You know that bottle of unopened soda in the bag bouncing on your hip for the last 1/2 hour? Yeah, that's going to spray everywhere when you open it, dummy. When I got home, my coat was so sticky that I just kinda pressed it to the wall to hang it up, no hook needed.

Oh, and I ate kangaroo! Not half bad, but I probably wouldn't go out of my way to order it again.

A nice sit down and a cup of tea are among many events (pdf) planned for GWB's impending visit to the UK. Police are estimating 100,000 plus demonstrators for his visit, and London's Mayor says of American requests for an exclusion zone to protect him, 'I don't think that's got a chance at all'. How does this level of grass-roots dissent compare to his reception when out and about in the US?

WTF-2 in London this Saturday


WTF-2 in London this Saturday 05/24/2004 04:44 AM
The next WTFCon is in London this Saturday: it's a one-day convention devoted to hackery subjects.
* An open space gathering and conference of various groups, projects, people, and organisations active and interested in creating a better world.

* Action and not just talk. Too many social forums and gatherings result with little or no outcome. Come and propose and gain support for actions during Soho Summit, ESF, G8, GDR etc.

* An assembly of gifts and needs: tell everyone what your projects are all about, what they have to offer, and what they need. Together we have everything. Let's self-organise and share!

* About working together, many of us have shared principles despite our diverse goals. No more either or!

Scobleizer: Today I changed the name of my 802.11 access point to my home address. Why? Cause, I want my neighbors to know who they are getting wireless from. Heh, good idea. Maybe I should do the same....
