Is A Google Background Check So Odd?
Is A Google Background Check So Odd?
04/12/2004 03:27 PMEarlier this year we spoke about how the old "references available
upon request" line at the end of resumes was
incredi
bly out-dated in an age when most references are available by
Google. It appears that not everyone has received that memo.
Over at E-Media Tidbits, they're
surprised
that a newspaper needed a
reader's suggestion to Google the backgrounds of three
candidates for the local school superintendent job.

Online Date
Now You Need A Background Check For Your
Online Date
04/19/2004 10:59 PMIt seems that with the popularity of online dating, a variety of new
companies are springing up around the space to
offer value-added services in conjunction with online
dating services. The most popular seems to be the standard
background check to make sure that the person you're about to meet
isn't 10 years older than they claim, isn't married, or isn't wanted
in multiple states. There are also "authentication" programs that
will verify the data about an individual for a price -and they can
post that info to their dating profile. One company that does such
authentication doubles as a photo studio where they promise to take
nice photos of you for the dating site (and will put in a note saying
exactly when the photo was taken, so you know it's not from decades
past). It's always interesting to see outside companies spring up
around successful businesses, and now the question is whether or not
any of the dating sites will simply start to offer their own such
services (or buy some of these outside providers).

Google Background Check On Date Catches
Fugitive
01/29/2004 02:49 AMThanks to
John for submitting this story about just how useful
it might be to Google your dates. Of course, this has been known for
years. It's been more than three years since we first posted stories
about
Googl
ing dates as a poor man's background check. While, for most
people, it's just an amusing and quick way to find out a little more
about the person you're meeting up with, sometimes you can turn up
quite a bit. In this case, a quick Googling turned up the fact that
the guy a woman was about to meet
was a
wanted fugitive who had eluded authorities for over a year. Once
again, it appears that Google really is your permanent record. Of
course, you have to wonder... if you're a fugitive with the FBI trying
to track you down, why are you going to use your real name on a date?

Kyocera isn't
the only camera company taking hot fashion tips from Apple's iPod
mini. Adesso has a new line of new cameras that seem to match, at
least superficially, the green, pink, and blue colors of the mini.
However, in an interesting break from Kyocera's form, the Adesso
cameras seem to be exceptionally, well, crappy, with the high
end model rolling in with a 1.3-megapixel sensor. I guess hoping
for an LCD on the back of these is asking too much, huh? I think this
is one time when following the 'smaller is better' ethic is probably a
misstep.
Even worse? They're not even out. (Thanks,
Justin!)

Trying To Find A Middle Ground For File
Sharing?
04/21/2004 04:47 AMFound over at
New Media Musings is a link to Scott Matthews
attempt to find a "middle
ground" to the file sharing mess. As with many middle ground
solutions, there are things with this that are likely to upset either
side, and I'm not sure there's much to be thrilled about either.
Basically, it's just taking a Creative Commons style approach (where
the copyright owner has the right to clearly define their rights over
the song) and combines it with a directory/database system like the
DNS system. The idea, then, is that you could query the directory to
easily figure out the rights on certain songs. As an application of
this, he suggests someone could make an RSS/BitTorrent feed of good
songs that are free for non-commercial use. The one benefit I see is
that this does offer a better way for musicians to promote new tracks
that they're making available for free, as it becomes a central place
to make such an announcement (and that, alone, could actually
encourage more musicians to make their songs available). Other than
that, though, it does little to satisfy either side in the debate.
The RIAA has shown that they have little to no interest in any
discussion that involves anyone ever giving out songs for free, and
most file sharers just want to listen to music and not have to worry
about any kind of digital rights.

The Lycos File System?
The Lycos File System?
09/10/2004 08:40 PMIn the last week or so there's been a lot of buzz about a hack that
would let people use their 1 gig Gmail account as an online file
storage system, called the
Gmail Filesystem. Of course, this is a hack and
one that Google is likely to shut down before too long. However, you
have to wonder if it's just a coincidence that Lycos is now getting
ready to announce
what sounds like the Lycos file system. They had already
announced plans to offer
1 gig
for email -- though not for free, and the latest plans indicate
that they'll let people use the space to store any kind of files they
want. It's almost amusing to see the search engine/portal players
back into the world that many predicted they would own years ago. Of
course, the question is how quickly will Google and others respond?
