Category: Digital Cameras
 There are tons of three megapixels cameras on the market these days, and standing out from the crowd isn't too easy. TechTV takes a first look at a three megapixel camera, Toshiba's PDR-T30, that has one unique features that no other camera has: a touchscreen LCD which you can use to jot down notes about your pictures as your taking them. Brilliant.

The Wireless Commons Manifesto.
The Wireless Commons Manifesto
We have formed the Wireless Commons because a global wireless network is within our grasp. We will work to define and achieve a wireless commons built using open spectrum, and able to connect people everywhere. We believe there is value to an independent and global network which is open to the public. We will break down commercial, technical, social and political barriers to the commons. The wireless commons bridges one of the few remaining gaps in universal communication without interference from middlemen and meddlers.... [Jon Schull's Weblog]

Its a start. Now if they would create a way for me to walk into a music store with my mp3 player and leave with the songs I want loaded I might even make it a stop on my jog. That is ofcourse if I start to jog again. Sking is comming soon and I really should get my legs in shape. getting a clue?. BBC: Illegal music sites 'here to stay'. Illegal music download sites will never be eradicated, the president of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) has admitted.

Ok I'm reading this page and almost understanding. It seems that there is a UI level argument for a better UI outline display widget, a second different UI solutioin for creation or authoring of Outline entry and maintenance, a third issue is standardization of getting directories to be stored in a common format like rss for outlines that would be OPML and then somehow down the road the benefits of wide scale participation.
If I had a billion dollars I'd pay each of you $10,000 to read this page carefully, think about it, and then get started building a directory for each of three subjects you're passionate about and knowledgeable of. All the technology is there. The format is open and brain-dead simple. And the philosophy is right too, imho. It's just waiting for people to decide to make it happen. Someday it will. I'd rather not wait any longer. Thanks for listening. [Scripting News]

Dave Winer on the Two-way Web
In his first DaveNet essay of the new year, Dave Winer of Userland/Radio fame talks about the demands on technology and the form blogging is taking. An excerpt:
So far the focus has been on weblogs for journalists and would-be journalists, leading to the question about how we make money with weblogs. This is very important, and I don't want to minimize it, but there are other important questions to ask.
If a weblog is used by a workgroup to keep the members informed, and to connect with other workgroups; and if their feeds are aggregated to inform shareholders, management, regulators, and other interested parties, you might measure the money-making in the form of money saved, or shortcuts found, or new ideas discovered, or blind alleys averted. Weblogs have a place in business that's as strong as their place in decentralizing news gathering and reporting.
And there's more. Imagine a weblog for each patient in the hospital. Each patient defines a community, the people who want to know what's going on and how the guy is doing. I know my friends and family would have found that useful when I was hospitalized last summer. I certainly wouldn't have minded them having the information (although I'd want to control who could access this particular weblog).
Jeremy Allaire's response is interesting too. An excerpt from Jeremy:
The question it really provoked for me, and one that has been lurking in my mind for the past few months, is whether weblogging as we know it will truly become a mainstream form of personal communications and sharing, rather than it's current perceived niche as form of personal or independent Internet journalism.
Often, when smart people hear about weblogs/blogs/blogging they really ask -- isn't this just the web? Isn't this just web publishing? Indeed, it is, and as Dave responded to someone in his essay, it's the promise of the web but just made easier (and more sharable). So what makes it different and how could it be transformed into a mainstream phenomenon?
From my perspective, weblogs are revolutionary because:
- They make publishing to the web really simple --- they are very simple, consumer-level content management systems. No HTML, no scripting, no knowledge of web servers, page layout, etc.
- They fulfill the promise of the semantic web (partially) by ensuring that your content is well structured (it's all XML!), and shareable (through RSS) in a standard way, and even well-described so their content can be harvested (RSS 2.0 in action will take is there)
But they're also very constrained in terms of what consumers will ultimately want if they are to become mainstream forms of personal communications, equivailent to email and the written word. For weblogs to become mainstream they need to...[read the rest of Jeremy's posting]
Repeating today's theme, the tools we're talking about are predicated on rich participation from the edge of the network, so we need synchronous data connectivity in order to assure the richest input from the home and small office, where most of the economic value in any country resides.
