iPhone Downloads Versus Fax Machines?

What do these two pieces of technology have is common? Not much. Looking at a fax machine you would think a piece of equipment that every business has and seemingly outdated. The iPhone is one of the most novel pieces of technology to come out in the last ten years and is seen as a fashion accessory and not a piece of office equipment. The comparison lies in the beginnings of the fax machine and what the fax machine created.
When the fax machine first came out if you were one of the first to buy one who were you faxing? You faxed the only other person with a fax machine. Today, it is hard to image a business that doesn’t have one of these pieces of equipment. So how did we go from having just one fax machine to having millions? It was slow, but with the addition of each fax machine the amount of people you could fax grew. As this number grew, the value of having a fax machine also grew. So as the value increased, the demand also increased and now, you can’t walk into a office without finding one. This is what is known as Metcalfe’s Law. Mathematically explained the value of the network is equal to the square of its users. Hence the fax machine created its own network.
iPhones, specifically iPhone download sites, are now following the same path as the fax machine. iPhone download sites use a file sharing technology call BitTorrent or just called torrents, which allows you to download files from your peers on a network. If you were one of the first people to explore this technology, you didn’t have many options of who you could download from and what files were available. With every new peer that joined, your options grew and so did the download speeds. Read the rest of this entry »

Why I obsess over Web Standards

I was recently reading an article on how Microsoft dropped the ball on developers and why several of them started to switch over to MAC OS X. Then I realized that the problem with Microsoft is that it represents the global large corporate mentality, mediocrity and lack of innovations. This is why Google is #1 and this is why no matter how much money a large company throws at the small competition, they can’t keep up.

It’s no secret that I’m no big fan of Microsoft, but I didn’t always dislike them. The first computer I ever used was an Apple, back in 1992 in elementary school. Fast forward a couple of years to Windows 3.1and the first computer my parent’s bought for our family was a PC. I was fascinated with it. You can press a button, click here and there and blam; things would happen.

Then we got AOL, and oh man, I remember thinking, “This is great, all the information of the world at my finger tips”. This was around 1995, and I recall thinking, “This internet thing, it could change the way the world communicates forever.”

I guess I was right, but there was a problem when I attempted to download the Internet Browser, it wouldn’t let me download it for some reason. A couple of months later, after an AOL upgrade, I finally got onto the Real Internet, past the AOL community and started to understand the true power of the internet. Read the rest of this entry »

How is Computer Forensics Changing the Way we Fight Crime?

Fighting crime has recently reached new levels of sophistication. There has been a great push to come up with new and original methods of battling crime in order to struggle with the new territories crimes are covering. The best implement in the war on lawlessness in the information age is computer forensics.

Computer forensics is a highly specialized type of computer product that when done properly can uncover information that has been lost (whether intentionally or deliberately) from the computer’s main memory The information remains but the computer can be told to disregard the existence of that particular information. Someone capable in computer forensics can find that lost (or misplaced) information and restore it. In some instances this becomes corroboration and in other instances it can lead to more data or the real evidence. Regardless, when it comes to computers, digital forensics is an important implement.

Taking advantage of computer forensics makes crime-solving easier and the world a superior place. People use the internet all the time to type and investigate information.

Cell phones making sense, as sensors

By Steve Mollman
CNN

(CNN) — When you go shopping in a mall, you create an invisible path as you head from one store to another. For the manager of a mall, it would be useful to see the paths made by you and hundreds of other shoppers over time. Now, there’s a tool for detecting those paths: the cell phone.art.cellphone.jpg

More than a mouthpiece: Cell phones can be used to track behaviour patterns. Mobile phones have become ubiquitous in advanced economies, to the point where in some countries cellular subscriptions outnumber people, and worldwide they number well over 3 billion.

Handsets frequently send tiny communications — basically saying “here I am” — to cell towers and other receivers, regardless of whether you’re using them. With triangulation, it’s possible to determine the handset’s (and thus your) approximate location. Over a period of time, your path through a mall or other space can be tracked. If those tiny communications can be kept anonymous — so that a specific phone’s movements can be tracked but not connected to an individual — then they and the patterns that they reveal can be put to commercial or civil use without infringing on privacy rights. The potential applications are powerful, says Roger Dennis, an associate with innovation consultancy Innovaro, because cell phones “become de-facto tracking devices when applied to populations.”

“Essentially what you are doing is watching rivers of people,” he says. “Anywhere where there are flows, there will be applications. Mass transit operations will be a prime user of this type of technology to monitor flows of commuters at hubs and interchanges.” Path Intelligence, a startup in the UK, says it’s in talks with airports, museums and amusement parks, among others. They’re interested in its FootPath system, which lets them track cell phones (and anonymous customers) through their public places. FootPath, which went on sale last summer, is already being used by mall operators. A key feature is that it lets them measure how long customers stay in the mall. From there, they can experiment to see what makes them spend more time — and, by correlation, more money — before leaving. Read the rest of this entry »

Sezmi will combine Internet video, cable TV

NEW YORK (AP) — A startup is betting that people are tired enough of their cable and satellite bills to take a look at an alternative pay TV system that combines a number of different technologies to deliver programming.

 

art.sezmi.ap.jpg

 

Technical trials are starting soon for Sezmi, a company that hopes to bust into the TV business. Silicon Valley-based Sezmi Corp. is revealing a system Thursday that amounts to a way for phone companies and local TV broadcasters to team up for an end run around satellite and cable. Technical trials are starting shortly, with full-blown commercial trials in some markets, yet unnamed, later this year.

The carrot for consumers: monthly fees that are about half those of cable or satellite, according to Sezmi founder Buno Pati. Sezmi’s system takes some explaining. At its heart is a TV set-top box that receives video content in three different ways. Two are available through other means: digital over-the-air local broadcasts, the kind that are available to anyone with a digital TV and a rabbit-ear antenna; and Internet downloads through the home’s broadband connection.

The third delivery method would be unique to Sezmi. It plans to have local TV stations use vacant portions of their airwaves to transmit basic cable channels like Nickelodeon and Discovery. Given the limited spectrum available, the stations won’t be able to transmit a full lineup, and only some of it will be in high definition. Sezmi plans to mitigate that by having stations send out the most-watched shows and have the set-top boxes save them on their hard drives, making them available for viewing on demand.
