Well well well – in a turnup for the books that Pyrrhus himself would have found difficult to swallow, Sanford has extracted an apology from non-Congressman Massa following the slanderous claims he made about Sanford’s character and conduct.
The original case is linked in Sanford’s publication of their joint statment of toadying reconciliation, but – like [...]
Ribbit – Silicon Valley’s First Phone Company
When I said that 2008 would be the year in which the promises of ‘mobile’ and telephony started to be delivered I didn’t envisage so much excitement so soon.
Hot on the heels of Rebtel we have Ribbit.
Ribbit is Rebtel meets Skype meets Adobe Air/Flex, meeting Visual Voicemail meets Unified [...]
Proofing and subediting are tricky, demanding and under-rated skills.
Still, the time to find and listen to those skills would be <thinks> before printing thousands of carrier bags</thinks>.
Then again, maybe not.
Let the presses roll. Oh, and see if we can find St Christpoher’s Place on Google Maps…
UPDATE: I’ve shown this to 8 people, none of whom [...]
This is a great idea. It’s become axiomatic that there’s a skills-shortage in ecommerce, but a less-well documented problem with the explosion in ecommerce is the lack of entry-level, junior skills.
Such has been the growth that experienced ecommerce people are now looking at senior management paygrades, but there’s not been the investment within companies to [...]
Mike Butcher’s recently covered the “Feta” (cheesey ‘beta’ pun – excellent) release of Forkd – a fun community/mashup offering for online foodies.
The pun extends beyond the ‘drop all vowels’ approach of flickr, mosaiqr etc and builds on the interesting notion that an individual recipe may ‘fork’ (as in ‘branch’) as well as be approriated (the [...]
Cheap international mobile calls at Rebtel
I was facing an hour-long conference call yesterday, dialling in to a US access point. I didn’t feel like stiffing my client with a humungous phone bill and as usual I’d left the various headset/handset options for Skype somewhere in a dusty cupboard. Ordinarily, I just shout at the laptop [...]
This article appeared as the Editor’s View in the February 2008 edition of Internet Retailing magazine.
I’m slowly catching up with posts after my MT install imploded – welcome Wordpress and at last a chance to post about a great experience: visiting Hong Kong to run a masterclass on ‘publishing 2.0′ for the British Council in January. I’ve been fortunate to work with the BC on a number of occasions but [...]
It was a real privilege to be able to run three days of workshops and presentations for Euromoney/Institutional Investor in New York, with Craig Hanna of e-consultancy. Following a presentation to the Board in London, Craig and I spent 3 days with teams in publishing, newsletters and conferences, looking at a number of aspects of [...]

Vodafone has released New_Vodafone_Mobile_Broadband_4.01.03.00.dmg available from here:

This rather nicely installs without having to be root (huzzah) and magically recognises more modems (I got plug n play with a Novatel 2352, not just the Huawei 220) and is an informative, useful piece of software. I’ll leave the rest here for those not running the latest [...]
