• An Infrastructure for the New Geography

    Posted on September 8, 2004

    There’s a post over at Future Now with a pointer to a new paper titled Infrastructure for the New Geography (PDF). I think it does a great job of laying down some of the possible benefits of having geographic data available. Not just being able to include information about where... [Read More]

  • BAMF WINKsite

    Posted on August 26, 2004

    The Bay Area Mobility Forum has been going pretty well, but there hasn’t been all that much feedback or much ongoing discussion on the blog. So I setup a new WINKsite for it. For those who haven’t used it before, the Wireless Ink folks have a site where you can... [Read More]

  • SIP and Mobile Services

    Posted on August 24, 2004

    Bill brought up some excellent topics at his presentation at BAMF this weekend. The one that struck me the most was his mention of SIP as a major item for future development of mobile applications. Given that right before the meeting I was blogging that I wanted “a service that... [Read More]

  • Tor - Anonymizing Overlay for TCP

    Posted on July 30, 2004

    I’m over at DEFCON listening to a presentation on Tor. The presentation is pretty interesting. The presenter is pretty funny at points. He’s using the term “sending a Guido” to paraphrase strong arming someone into giving you info they don’t want to. It’s an interesting turn of phrase. Plus the... [Read More]
