Good-Will Is Low for Social Security
Talks 12/19/2004 02:57 PM
The parties have not been this far apart ideologically on Capitol Hill for decades, some analysts say, which could make an overhaul of Social Security hard to achieve.

Social Tech: What an Internet enabled
Insurgency is good for 01/22/2004 06:48 AM
Internet insurgencies are great for 2 things:  the persuasion and coercion of those in power or those that want power.  These insurgencies will be really powerful when they move beyond a blind attachment to a single candidate and start to exercise their power as outsiders.

A little freethinking:  It is easy to imagine the day when social tech enabled interest groups vie with states for control of the party primary system.For example: imagine a well funded single issue group that represents a significant portion of the active voters setting up a national caucus or convention via Meet-up.  Candidates from the two established parties would be invited to run in their primary process.  Forget 2 parties.  What about a dozen?

Social Applications For Social Devices

Social Applications For Social Devices 07/13/2004 01:53 AM
The mobile phone, by its very nature is a "social" device. It's designed to help connect you to someone else. While most of the early efforts to create "mobile data" have come from a broadcast mindset (delivery produced content to an audience), it looks like some are finally realizing that mobile data apps need to be social to really catch on. If they're not making use of the mobile phone for what it's good for, then it's unlikely to get too much attention. MIT's Tech Review has a good overview of a variety of different "social" projects related to mobile devices, from the ever popular "Dodgeball" mobile social networking application to Fluidtime's dorm room washing machine SMS scheduler (and negotiator, should you find out you need the machine now and someone else has it booked). These are the types of applications that really are the future of mobile phones -- and not the ability to watch the latest reality TV series on your phone or to receive a marketing message from Disney.

networking 12/14/2003 09:54 PM
Kevin Werbach points out that social networking sites like LinkedIn and Tribe and so forth have very little to offer highly connected people like Esther Dyson, who would nevertheless be a real asset to the network:

Esther and Pierre don't need LinkedIn to reach pretty much anyone they want to contact. Yet there are a whole lot of folks who want to reach them, and don't have a personal connection to do so. So the service worsens their email overload with little corresponding benefit.

Unitarianism: good enough for two

Unitarianism: good enough for two
presidents, not good enough for Texas 05/19/2004 02:47 AM
The state of Texas has denied Unitarians tax-exempt religious status because the church "does not have one system of belief." As Julia notes, Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams were sufficiently convinced of the Unitarians' religiosity that they actually were Unitarians.

Never before -- not in this state or any other -- has a government agency denied Unitarians tax-exempt status because of the group's religious philosophy, church officials say. Strayhorn's ruling clearly infringes upon religious liberties, said Dan Althoff, board president for the Denison congregation that was rejected for tax exemption by the comptroller's office.

What's good for General Motors is good

GM in trouble: "If you erased the company name from the balance sheet and showed it to a forensic accountant, the recommended treatment would probably be to seek protection from creditors by filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. " GM's troubles are as much a result of the exploding costs of health care as they are due to the company's dropping market share. In Canada increasing health care costs (PDF with many charts) are taking a greater and greater share of government expenditures. In the US it's hurting big employers and regular people. But either way the problem doesn't seem likely to get better any time soon.

Ah! Relief at last!

Ah! Relief at last! 04/13/2004 03:47 PM

I'm happy to report that yeste rday's surgery was a big success. I had five large disk fragments removed from my cervical spine, and when I woke from the procedure I immediately noticed that the pain in my left arm was completely gone (ahhhh!). I won't be doing much computer work for a week or so, but as you can see, I'm well enough the day after the surgery to move around and do some light typing.

Many thanks to all those who wished me well yesterday - I'm grateful for your kindness.

• Fog Creek Software
• Blogjet
• iPodderX
• Whirling Dervishes and Neobyte Solutions

If I missed anyone, let me know by posting a comment or trackback and I'll update this list.

For a comic look at the politics, check out "It's Time to Bomb Saddam" and some of the other goodies at eBaum's world.If you are a Jack Nicholson fan, or even if you aren't and just need some non-political comic relief, check out the Jack Nicholson soundboard. Listen to them, remember the movies, and laugh at them. I don't recommend making prank calls with them, as Stavros the Wonder Chicken discusses, but I gather people do. Also available: Hannibal Lecter, Samuel Jackson, and of course Homer Simpson. Requires Flash "enabling Rich Internet Applications like these". Thanks (I think) to Stavros the Wonder Chicken....

Greg Hughes is right:

"This is the right time to stop what you normally do, get out of your little digital world that you assume is all-defining and all-encompassing (it’s not, really) and come back to reality...Very real people are experiencing very real pain, and you can do your part to help them recover."

Until the end of the month, everything I earn from TopStyle and FeedDemon will be donated to the International Red Cross to help those affected by this disaster.

The Relief of Leaving a Job

The Relief of Leaving a Job 03/14/2005 05:01 PM
I've noticed a funny thing in the last year or so. The vast majority of the time someone I know leaves a job (or is fired) two trends seem to recur: A sense of relief: "I'm so glad I'm not at that place anymore." A complete loss of "spare" time: "I'm busier now than when I was working full-time!" Maybe everyone should change jobs once or twice a decade? Maybe people should ask themselves a bit more often one question:...
