Orange have come up with a clever attention getter for their shop windows, watch the video: Orange’s interactive window was developed by The Alternative. The window uses gesture-based technology to allow users to wave a hand and a projected image inside the store responds to the movement. With no interface such as a glove, mouse [...]

Heh. The noise in the room re Twitter is pretty high at the moment. Everyone seems to have an opinion whether Twitter has an exit or how Obvious will monetise their business, it’s all somewhat amusing. Anyway, I just got around to viewing Ev’s talk at Le Web 3 2007, here’s the vid if you’re [...]
It’s Not The Kindle, Stupid
Posted in GEEKDOM, HEH, TELECOM on November 22, 2007 | Comments Off
It’s the Amazon. Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and Amazon’s Simple Storage Service (S3) was a nice disruptive strategy. The now much talked about Kindle is merely a distraction from Amazon’s third little disruption – consumers ‘owning’ bandwidth as part of the device purchase rather than having to pay extra on an as-you-go plan.

According to the press he’s been nabbed after being traced making a Skype call from Colombo, Sri Lanka. Anonymous peer-to-peer, not; shouldn’t a tech exec know that? It gets better, it’s said a private detective [...]

Unstrung ran a piece re xG’s commercialisation plan and a VOIP phone. “In the US, we plan to utilize a grassroots marketing campaign to roll xMax out on a viral basis,’†said Rick Mooers, xG Technology’s CEO and [...]
Vyatta Router
Posted in ECONOMICS & FINANCE, GEEKDOM, HEH, SHINY, TELECOM on February 24, 2006 | Comments Off
An open source enterprise-class router from Vyatta methinks will be a disruptive kick for today’s manufacturers. Just read Om’s comments and agree fully. The scramble for open source in networking comes because two primal forces tearing the old telecom order apart. First, the Internet-based technologies are replacing the closed legacy phone systems, thus helping the [...]
