It is always fascinating watching Apple present a new product. It’s not Apple that I watch, it’s everyone else. Bloggers goes nuts. Stock analysts approach it with typical wry skepticism. And news outlets tap into the prognostications. Bloggers and followers almost always seem underwhelmed when a new product comes out. Maybe [...]
Forget Media DRM, Worry About Seed DRM
Look, no other issue seems to set off a firestorm faster than DRM media. The cat and mouse game of the RIAA and media dispersion has been interesting, to say the least. And, with the recent ruling about the Pirate Bay purveyors, it seems that DRM litigation and public discourse is just getting started. It’s [...]
The Rise of Video Game Killers
The world – it is a’changing. This is evident everywhere (yes, besides Apple unveils!). Heck, just look on Wall Street for that matter. One of the more interesting, and disconcerting, changes lies in the belly of the military machine.
Lessons from the Cincinnati Power Outage
I pondered doing this editorial for a few days and I can’t keep it in anymore. I think most people expect a rant about Duke Energy’s response. Or maybe I should go after Time Warner’s outages. Well, I’m not going to speak to any of that really. Well, except to say that I think it’s [...]
The Rise of the Nano Factories
Even nano robots need a place to unwind and read the newspaper! Yes, that really is a nano toilet. All kidding aside, nano technology is still in its infancy, but good progress is being made. Really, it’s just a matter of time before we can start building things on the nano scale – in mass. [...]
NetFlix To Keep User Profiles
OK, I don’t personally use Netflix, but I’ve heard the hoopla and buzz surrounding how simple and easy their service is to use. I was, therefore, surprised when I heard that they were going to eliminate individual user profiles “for simplicity’s sake”. User profiles, from what I understand, allow accounts with “multiple DVD check-out” privileges [...]
A Technology Philosophy
I love technology, gadgets, tinkering, etc. Don’t get me wrong, I really do. But I tend to deviate with techno-addicts in some areas. The problem with a lot of technology is that it tends to end up driving you, not the other way around.
Pay Phones Going the Way of the Dodo
Mark down another casualty of the technological revolution. AT&T, long known as the huge ‘Ma Bell bastion, is officially quitting the public pay-phone business. After 129 years of owning and maintaining a large chunk of the nation’s pay-phone network, the phones will be phased out over the next year, so a majority of the nation [...]
Chinese Rehab Camps for Internet Junkies
The headline is 100% true. I kid you not. It’s become apparent to the Chinese government that enough is too much when it comes to the Internet. Reuters put up a story on Tuesday that explains “China is launching an experimental summer camp for 40 youngsters to try to wean them off their Internet addiction, [...]
Facebook and the ‘Net of Tomorrow
To put a bit of back story to this posting, I’ve recently had social networks on the mind. The big ones, to be exact; Facebook, MySpace, to some degree, Flikr and the others, but mostly Facebook. After all, it has set itself to challenge the reigning champ for the premier place to be on the [...]
