Swedish technology: cell phone vibrations might let us watch soccer games wit... - 0 views

  •  
    Look at how this will work with wireless, another good idea for a movie.
  •  
    An area of explosive growth that is beginning to emerge is the integration of other senses than sight and sound -- smell, touch, taste, etc. and this is an example of how a company is planning to use the sense of touch to let a person follow a soccer game. Don't know if anyone would do it, but if everybody thinks it is a good idea, as a rule, you're too late.

  • "Potential for Terrorist Use of Twitter,"

  •  
    Important to include twitter as part of what you're reporting.
  •  
    Interesting article w/ new term "hacktivists" -- politically motivated hackers. That is a new term. Twitter is written up in this report as being used by extremist groups of all kinds "socialists, human rights groups, communists, vegetarians, anarchists, religious communities, atheists, political enthusiasts, hacktivists and others...." Why not just say everyone uses twitter? (Well, everyone DOESN"T use twitter but it can mobilize a lot of people in a pretty short time.)

Virtual communication - 0 views

  • Virtual communication is breaking down barriers that have separated people for centuries. A new wave of technology is exploding into society. What other device could permit a student in a rural community of south Georgia,Los Angeles, or Missouri in the United States of America to connect with a student in metropolitan Bangladesh, Australia, China, Austria, or Qatar?
  •  
    This is last year's page. This is a good explanation of Virtual communication. this is specifically the common forms of virtual communication
  •  
    This was talking about virtual communication and what it is. It was saying how it is used in everyday life and how people use it. By talking to someone over the internet that's in a distant location is virtual communication.

On-again off-again iPhone app Podcaster is on again, sort of - 0 views

  • The developer who has already had his iPhone app denied from Apple's App Store and had his ability to issue Ad Hoc licenses of the app revoked by Apple is hoping that the third time's a charm
  • Podcaster first made news last month when Sokirynsky made it known that his application had been rejected from the App Store for duplicating the functionality of iTunes. The third-party app allows users to download podcasts to their iPhones or iPod touches. Users could then listen to the podcasts immediately instead of having to sync with a computer first.
  • Apple then denied Sokirynsky the ability to distribute any more ad hoc copies of the application.
  •  
    Look at what apple is doing to protect their own hold on the musical pursestrings of society with this.
  •  
    Apple is quite protective of the uses of their devices and although they allow the development of "apps" -- they made waves recently when they denied the app that allows people to download and listen directly to podcasts w/out synching w/ the computer. Mobile itunes doesn't offer this feature. So, there is "open" and truly "open." Iphone apps store isn't really open, if this is true.

  • Car keys -- long perceived as the keys to teenagers' freedom -- may soon be the best way for parents to monitor their every move.
  • that allows parents to set safety limits on teen drivers through a high-tech car key.
  •  
    Ford announces a car key will allow parents to set limits on their teenage drivers. If you want to require them to buckle up before the car cranks - you can do it. If you want them not to listen to loud music or not drive over a certain speed, you can do that too! Technology has brought freedom - it can also restrict teens as well, as many will begin to realize. They should behave responsibily or more devices such as this will emerge to elicit control at the source.
  •  
    Computing devices are in cars and many other devices. This is an example of a device that will be used to restrict teenage drivers, from ford.

OLPC Australian Involvement - 0 views

  •  
    Blog entry from Pia Waugh who was involved in implementing OLPC in Niue.
  •  
    In late July I was very privileged to help roll out the world's first 100% saturation of OLPC XOs to the country of Niue, in the Pacific near New Zealand. There are around 400 students, and every single one got a laptop! I was in charge of the server/wireless infrastructure, and the imaging of the laptops as well as technical training for the people there on the ground.
