Spammers Struggling, Moving Overseas


Spammers Struggling, Moving Overseas 12/15/2003 02:27 AM
Yet another in a long line of "spammer profiles." This one focuses on two grandparents who spam for a living - but claim that times are tough for spammers, and they may have to declare bankruptcy. I'm sure we all pity them and the "free speech rights" go on and on about. The article does a good job pointing out how spammers are quite different than direct mail companies - no matter what the spammers claim. It also points out, however, that spammers are all setting up shop overseas, where it will be even more difficult to track them down once the US law legalizing most spam goes into effect. I'm still wondering why no one is demanding that, if we must pass such a terrible law, why don't we have some clear review point, six months from the law going into effect that will show how much more spam is being received? If it shown (as most of us suspect) that the law does nothing to stop spam (and may even help increase it), then shouldn't a Plan B be lined up?

08/17/2004 07:53 AM
While IT is improving the quality of life in many developed nations, the use of technology is still out of reach for people in many other countries. Nowhere is this digital divide as big or visible than in India. Apart from access to a computer, unfamiliarity with the English language is one of the biggest factors contributing to this problem. In countries like India, where the majority of the population is English-illiterate, computing has to speak a language the locals understand. This is where user-interface localization steps in.

Telcos and cities struggling for

06/05/2005 11:48 PM

In a growing number of American states , city governments and telephone companies are struggling over policies determining who gets to rollout city-wide wireless internet connectivity. Telcos argue that cities offer unfair competition to their businesses.

Twenty states have already passed, or are trying to push through, legislation that would impose heavy restrictions on communities creating their own networks in areas already served by Bells and cable companies.
Thirteen of those states--Arkansas, Florida, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia and Washington--have passed bills restricting future public broadband projects, though existing initiatives are allowed to operate. The remaining eight have measures pending or have seen their bills fail to reach a vote.

Teachers and students froze, assuming the sixth-grader known for her lighthearted nature had gravely hurt herself -- but she quickly dispelled that impression, witnesses said, by uttering a few chilling words: "This is not my blood."

Email Marketers Struggling With Can

Email Marketers Struggling With Can
Spam, Spammers Doing Just Fine
06/01/2004 10:55 AM
It's been quite clear for some time that many spammers have absolutely no intention of paying attention to any spam-related laws, such as CAN-SPAM. However, for (more) legitimate email marketers, the new regulations are already quite a hassle - with many of them failing to follow the requirements, putting them at risk of getting sued. This is a bit amusing, considering it was these so-called "legitimate marketers" who were so adamant about having CAN-SPAM passed in a way that would let them "legitimately" spam more easily. Now, what they're realizing is that they've added more trouble for themselves without doing much of anything to actually stop the spam that drowns out their own messages.

Hey! This Is Where They Filmed That Scene Where... It's childish, I know, but I always get a buzz when I come across a place I've seen in a movie. Just as it never feels right when the city I live in turns up in one. Famous Locations is an unpretentious, modestly designed little website which is full of such thrills. For example, I've often stayed at the Algonquin Hotel in Manhattan - who would have thought it was where Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger hammed it up shamelessly in 9 1/2 Weeks?

Wayport Hits 6,300 Locations


Wayport Hits 6,300 Locations 01/04/2005 02:27 AM
Wayport has 6,300 locations equipped; 5 million sessions in 2004: Wayport announced that they have exceeded 6,300 hotspots between locations with which they have directly contracted and those that they operate as a managed service, primarily for SBC Communications's FreedomLink network. The company also said that they had 5 million connections in 2004, with 600,000 in October alone. Wayport had about 1,000 location at the end of 2003, and a significant subset included in-room wired broadband hotels with Wi-Fi just in lobbies. Virtually all new locations are Wi-Fi only in retail establishments. Dan Lowden, vice president of marketing at Wayport, said in an interview on Monday that Wayport believes they are now the biggest Wi-Fi network in the U.S., having exceeded T-Mobile's count, which is just under 5,300 according to T-Mobile's location finder. (This doesn't include T-Mobile's fee-based roaming partners.) "We're very very excited about it; it's a big milestone for us. We're excited to be the biggest in the United States," Lowden said. Lowden said that Wayport is adding about 150 locations per week. They expect to exceed 6,000 McDonald's restaurants by third quarter of 2005, pushing their total over 10,000 locations. Because certain large footprints have already been tied up, such as many coffee chains, and because of Wayport's exclusive deal for fast-food restaurants with McDonald's, Wayport is pushing into different kinds of spaces and services. For instance, their deal with Hertz gives them an alternate presence at airports. And Wayport will work with venues that may not need public Wi-Fi at all, or it's an adjunct to the real purpose: private services like cashless transactions (which they're doing with McDonald's) and security. Lowden also noted that even with the hotel market so widely built out with high-speed services, there's still a lot of room to grow or rebuild. "We continue to see opportunities where folks have had three or four service providers over the last three or four years," he said. Wayport's now an established firm with major partners making it easy for them to bat clean up in cases such as these. The company has grown fairly rapidly in the last year to handle the new contracts with over 330 employees now, with 150 hired in the last year....

FireTide Talks about Pilot Locations


FireTide Talks about Pilot Locations 12/02/2003 02:33 PM
FireTide starts talking about its pilot rollout of a mesh wired replacement, its shipping date, and the cost: In a briefing yesterday, FireTide said that it had successfully rolled out over a dozen pilot locations using its HotPoint mesh routing system, including an airport, a museum, and a park. FireTide's 802.11b system, which costs $799 (suggested retail price) per node, uses mesh networking algorithms to automatically create an optimum route wirelessly between nodes without customer intervention. Each node has two Ethernet ports, which can support wireless access points from any vendor, or any other Ethernet-enabled equipment. The company is based in Los Gatos, Calif., and Honolulu, and has worked with firms close to home. The Hotel Los Gatos already had Wi-Fi in its rooms, but not in public areas or meeting rooms. Company vice president Barbara Cardillo said that they were able to have the hotel's public areas up and running in an afternoon with six HotPoints. The Los Gatos Opera House wanted to extend itself to businesses for meetings, but they lacked interior connectivity. A few HotPoints later, linked to a business DSL in an office in the building, and the Opera House is now open for commerce. At the Kahalui Airport, where the FAA and USDA perform extensive testing to avoid planes carrying invasive species in and out of Hawaii, Cardillo said the airport faced a particular set of issues: lots of low buildings separated by tarmacs with no connectivity among them. The airport said it would cost $150,000 to connect the buildings with wire, and would shut down various runways during construction. An integrator came in and installed 11 HotPoints for about $20,000 to fully enable the airport's baggage claim, baggage handling, and offices; hardware cost about 25 percent of the total. FireTide is also working with a company that brings PET scans--a next-generation version of the MRI--in semi-trucks to hospitals around the country. The company found that getting data from the scanner into the hospital required annoying efforts each time because the same parking space wasn't always available, and the only option they'd pursued was stringing Ethernet cable. Now, with a few HotPoints, the semi is linked right into the hospital network. Because HotPoint is just an Ethernet replacement, the hospital and firm can overlay whatever security they need on the link layer. FireTide also announced its partnership and reseller program. The company will not sell...
