Here's
Denise's post.....
Timmy Turner, hero of Nickelodeon's Fairly Oddparents, has the answer for everything: "Somewhat impulsive, he often tends
to make wishes without thinking about the possible consequences of his
actions, or how to explain his wished-for stuff ('where'd you get
that? Timmy: uh...
Internet?')."
Iowa Computing, purveyor of
all manner of computer components and peripherals, also offers this nifty
carseat/stroller combo (with on-board audio system, of
course):
[bag and

This is something only a parent can truly appreicate. We bought a
new Peg Perego double stroller for our trip - and it's been a life
saver several times over.
Hopefully I'll get to see Denise (and baby) at DIDW in October.

03/06/2004 01:55 AM“Once loaded up, you can drop the [iPod] mini in your pocket, or make
use of the optional arm band to strap it to you,” writes Brett Larson
in an iPod mini review for CBS. “And unlike CD players, or even
tape-based WalkMan’s, the iPod’s let you move about, run around, work
out and stay active without any song skipping. In fact, where my
typical 4 mile run has me skipping a few steps, my iPod hasn’t ever
missed a beat.” [Mar 5]

04/09/2004 04:08 PMApple are missing out on a huge opportunity. I've bought 198 songs
through the iTunes music
store now, and iTunes has access to the other music that I've
imported from my own CD
collection. I want to discover new music - why doesn't iTunes look at
what I listen to, match it against buying habits tracked through the
store and give me an Amazon style "people who like the music you
listen to also liked...". Privacy concerns could be avoided by having
the recommendation feature off by default - I'd turn it on in a
heart-beat.

Sorry I missed the party
Sorry I missed the party
05/14/2004 12:17 PMWhile evereyone else was out partying last night (Acteva also had a party) I was working to
change the world - bringing DLAs to the masses.
More on my efforts later.
But for now - congrats to Ev and Jason. I wonder if Orkut was
there?
Smells
like 1999.
Last night I attended the Blogger relaunch party at SF’
26Mix. It was a pretty cool bash - and I mean the food, the music
and the locale were pretty trendy. What struck me was the names and
faces from the past, those who had become party regulars were all in
full force. Jay Shellen, Evan Williams and a whole bunch of
Blogger gang were in attendance, and so were the folks behind Craigslist, Newsmonster, Feedster and of course the queen of
valley gossip, Chris Nolan.
James and James of AmIhotornot were in attendance
as well.
It reminded me of the parties in 1999 when the dotcom madness was
in full swing. Lately I have been getting more of these party invites
and there seems to be a certain buzz, back in the air. The rentals in
San Francisco are inching up slowly, the traffic on Highway 101 is
turning into a weebit of a nightmare, and even magazines are trotting
out some familiar names. My magazine for instance has a story on Mary
“Queen of the Net” Meeker, Nick Denton of Gawker Media. and
a couple of others. Wired is having a NextFest. What makes it more like
1999, is the fact that a whole lot of journalists are talking about
“blogging” as their salvation (which may or may not be
true!) and quitting their jobs to do something with “blogs.”
Back in the day, they were talking about web as their escape key. I
think the hype machine around blogs is in high gear, and while it
might make some like Rafat Ali
or Nick Denton very rich, there is little or no hope for many of
us.
In short, it smells and feels like 1999. Let the party begin - free
vodka and canapes, hell I am not complaining.

Another missed warning?
12/30/2004 04:51 PMThe tsunami-warning blame game -- could the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
have done a better job
alerting Indian Ocean countries after learning of the earthquake?
-- takes a new turn Thursday.
The Washington Post reports that the
Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organization, based in Vienna, surely
would have picked up the earthquake "but it had no chance to alert
governments in the region because its offices were closed for the
holidays." In fact, the network doesn't even possess a communication
system capable of channeling early warning signals to the region.
Should it? Writes the Post: "Bernard Massinon, a French seismologist
who serves as scientific adviser to the test ban organization, said
the agency's seismic stations -- including eight in Indonesia,
Thailand and Sri Lanka -- could technically be linked to an early
warning system for earthquakes and tsunamis if member states decided
to do it. 'Could we help by providing real-time data from this
network?" he said. "The answer should be yes.'"

Missed Call Scam Showing Up In The UK
Missed Call Scam Showing Up In The UK
02/18/2004 01:19 PMApparently, over in the UK there's a new scam that involves tricking
people into calling expensive per-minute "premium" numbers. It works
by randomly dialing mobile phone numbers and having
the system hang
up after one ring. This way, the caller ID on the phone records
the number. When people call back, they're told they've won a prize,
but have to call another number to receive it. That second number is
a premium rate number with high per-minute fees (though, the caller is
never told that). While concerned people in the article make this out
to be a big deal, I wonder how many people are actually fooled. Do
people actually call back unknown caller ID numbers on their phone? I
always assume if they didn't leave a message it's not important or a
wrong number. Second, if you do call that number back and you get a
message saying you'd won
and that you need to call
another phone number - how many people would actually believe
it? It screams out "scam!" I guess there are a lot of gullible
mobile phone users out there.

From Resume Spam To Missed Job
Opportunities
From Resume Spam To Missed Job
Opportunities
04/13/2004 03:45 PMThere have been complaints in the past about resume spam - where
people either would randomly email out hundreds of resumes with no
sense of targeting, or in response to a single job opening, an HR
department would get bombarded with resumes. However, as spam filters
become more common, this is leading to a different type of problem:
legitimate resumes getting caught in spam filters.
Whereas, in the past, people would try to put certain keywords into
their resumes so that automated sorting technology would highlight
their resumes, now people are trying to avoid certain words to keep
their resumes from getting hung up (imagine how difficult it must be
for anyone who worked on the product Viagra - a success story by any
criteria - to get his or her resume into the hands of a new potential
employer). Of course, this actually seems like a case where
challenge-response could solve the problem. In announcing a specific
job opening, perhaps it makes sense to set up a challenge-response
email address for that particular opening. This would also let the
company provide additional "are you sure you're appropriate for this
job" type of warnings before the applicant submitted their resume.

Is It Still Satire If You Can Find
Someone Who Missed The Joke?
Is It Still Satire If You Can Find
Someone Who Missed The Joke?
12/24/2003 12:08 PMAs expected, it's shaping up to be something of a slow news day, but
there are still a few good stories out there. This one, found over at
Tech Law Advisor shows why people without a sense of
humor shouldn't be allowed to hire (or be) lawyers. A few years back,
after a judge ordered the detention of a 13-year-old kid for handing
in a school essay with a "violent tone", the Dallas Observer wrote up
a satire piece about the same folks having a 6-year-old arrested for
writing a book report on Maurice Sendak's insanely popular children's
book "Where the Wild Things Are." In the article, they made up
ridiculous quotes ("We've considered having her certified to stand
trial as an adult, but even in Texas there are some limits." and "Any
implication of violence in a school situation, even if it was just
contained in a first-grader's book report, is reason enough for panic
and overreaction.") and attributed them to real people who were
involved in the original case. Those people
are now
suing for libel. Of course, satire and opinion are protected
speech, but the people in question are claiming that because some
people don't have a sense of humor and
missed the satire, it's
not satire at all. If that argument stood, then all you would need to
do to unprotect satire is find someone with no sense of humor who
missed the joke - and rush them to the courthouse to have them help
you file your lawsuit. Meanwhile, it seems like the judges are
realizing that this case is pointless. Yet more evidence that we live
in a society where if anyone says anything you don't want to hear, you
sue first and act offended later.
