I Wanna Move to Washington 06/17/2004 10:01 AM

Spokane airport goes wireless: Man, Washington state is an awfully cool place to be these days. First the Seattle library (he re, he re, and here), now this:

Airplanes aren't the only things in the air at Spokane International Airport.

On Wednesday, the airport unveiled a wireless system that makes the Internet available to anyone with a computer that can access it. Travelers no longer need to plug into telephone jacks to check e-mail or work on-line.

And next week, a 100-block area of downtown Spokane goes wireless.

This is most excellent! The Collings Foundation's B-17 and B-24 are going to be at Moffett Field this week (13th-18th). That's right next door to work. Like last year, which I missed, there will be ground tours for $8 and if you pony up $400, you get a 30 minute flight. (I think they were $300 last year?) I'm very, very tempted. Besides, I believe the $400 is tax deduction. Anyone else planning to go--either to walk through or...

Bay Area Mobile Forum

Bay Area Mobile Forum 06/09/2004 12:34 PM

Russell Beattie is on a tear!  I say "Ice Tea" (some of us don't drink!)  And no carbs, just meat and cheese.

Bay Area Mobility Forum. Things are, as always, insanely busy at the moment.

So continuing the thought from Saturday, I think I've gotten some great reception to the idea of having an "un-conference"/get together about mobility. Since I'm up in Emeryville and not technically in Silicon Valley, I decided to call it the Bay Area Mobility Forum. I just registered mobilityforum.org as well.

Now, what's the best way to organize online? There's three ways I can think of - I can:

1) Start a Yahoo Group. But I think that's aging platform. Yes, once upon a time it was cool, but now mailing lists are so passé.

2) Start a wiki. I could grab JSP Wiki and have it up and running in a matter of minutes. And I think Wikis are wonderful and cool and all that, but I may be too type-A to deal with the hassle of a zillion people editing pages without control.

3) Start a blog. I think this is probably the best option. And I'm not even thinking about using *my* weblog, but the new Blogger. It supports multiple authors, comments, etc. It doesn't supprt RSS which sorta sucks, but the rest is pretty great.

I'm partial to the blog because it's easier to diseminate timely information, comments are great ways of getting feedback without getting things lost in discussion groups, and by inviting multiple authors, I can - like Mobitopia - take the load off me when I flake out and move on to other shiny things that catch my interest.

In terms of the what the goal is of the get together, I think it's a great idea to copy wholesale from the OWC.

Thus:

The Bay Area Mobility Forum mission is to cultivate and accelerate Silicon Valley's mobile and telecom sectors through leadership, technology, government relations, research, education, mentoring, investment, recruitment, networking and promotion.

And free beer. Let's not forget the free beer. And pizza too.

So in the coming days, I'll throw up a blog, invite people who are interested in helping me organize this thing to become editors, we'll figure out a good date for the inaugural meeting (we can use my current offices at WaveMarket - where there's a conference room for about 50 people and a couple board rooms for sessions), guage interest among potential attendees, figure out some topics to chat about and maybe get a few mobile-sector leaders to give a presentation, send some emails to everyone I can think of getting them to show up with their gadgets and other mobile toys...

Actually, most people will show up for the beer. I just want to see the gadgets. No one gets in the door without a cool toy. (Just kidding).

Comments welcome.

-Russ

Area 51 Investigator goes underground!

Area 51 Investigator goes underground! 05/26/2004 05:57 AM

I am a very proud and loyal American. I support the principles of this country and would never do something that would put me under Uncle Sam's scrutiny. As a citizen I pay taxes to Uncle Sam so that my children and I sleep well at night knowing that the government is watching our backs and doing the things that keep us on top of the technology power curve. So I am not all sympathetic
when I hear about some knuckle head messing around with government sensors out in the desert.

Everyone has seen the movies and heard the rumors about Area 51 and I am sure their are a lot of people that would give their eye teeth to visit the site. Uncle Sam has the area restricted for a reason and that is good enough for me. When someone is out there digging up sensors in my opinion that is bordering on treason. So I have no qualms when someone messes with federal property
I would expect the FBI to find out if the individual is a curious george or a foreign spy.

We all are entitled to our opinions and are responsible for our actions. You are free to do a lot of things but people need to realize their are consequences to actions such as this. [The Register]

Former BoingBoing guestblogger and Business 2.0 editor Todd Lappin points us to an online glossary of hip-hop and gangster language that is regionally specific to the San Francisco Bay Area.

The list includes terms which are now part of the broader lexicon of American popular speech (like "cabbage," "cheddar," and "scratch," all of which mean money). But I found plenty of terms in here that were new for me. For instance: "Dipped in Butta sauce" (Hella fitted, g\'d up, creased up from tha feet up), "Burners" (a cellular telephone that is being used illegally), and "Fedex" (an individual that delivers quick money).

My wife and I have a office in our house. It was originally designed to be our dinning room. When we moved in it was thrown together quite haphazardly and we ended up being back to back. As we spent so much time in the office we got our acts together and re-arranged the furniture so we could look at each other and it's quite organized. But the picture that is referenced in this link I think a can of Gasoline and a Match would be the solution to this mess. [Worst Home Office Period]

Alienware Area-51m 7700 Reviewed 12/22/2004 01:36 AM

Alienware machines are overpriced and over-hyped, but you've got to admit, when they go top-end they usually do it right. Jason Cross over at ExtremeTech reviews their latest desktop replacement laptop, the Area-51m 7700, and it's pretty impressive—as it should be, since it forgoes most laptop parts and actually uses desktop chips crammed inside its not-so-portable 12-pound chassis. What you get in the end is a laptop that should rarely leave your desk, but provides most of the functionality of a full-size PC. Look, it even comes with all the fans of a regular-sized PC.
