The philosophy

For the launch of 2006 Broadcast Live, a few words about the impact of IPTV, podcasting and blogs.

Closing the Gates

Thirty years of defining the nature of information technology, and latterly the future of gaming, and television, is tiring. Yes, I've decided enough is enough. I won't listen to Bill Gates any longer.

Flock It

I’ve been playing around with the beta of flock, the new browser that integrates with Flickr, delicious and your blog tools, as well as providing new search functions. At first glimpse flock looks like the integration a user like me needs. For example being slow on the uptake

Wiki’s Progress

Economists now use the Big Mac as a guide to inflation and the cost of living across the world, assuming that the price of the Big Mac will always tend towards equilibrium. In the IT business Microsoft might equally be used as a point of comparison for the popularity of community tools. If Microsoft start using Wikis then their time has arrived, no?

Podcasting Matures

Just because I’m a low level user of mobile devices doesn’t mean they’re not the dog’s. Anyway Podcasts are the real democratiser and Podshow.com is doing a good job of becoming the meta site. So far I’m confused about what differentiates them from podcastalley and  indiepodder. Hope to answer that in the next 24 hours.
