Ill Communication (Feb 04 2005 19:59 GMT) - Critics say magazines like this one never print any good news about the Bush administration. Here’s some: Michael Powell is leaving the FCC. Powell exits the Federal Communications Commission as perhaps both the best-known and most-despised chairman in history. |

Which Linux distribution to choose? (Feb 04 2005 19:59 GMT) - Recently I bought I new harddrive for my home pc because my mp3 player had more space than my computer. Now I'm still running the operating system from the old drive, but I'm planning to reinstall the system. That leads me to the choice of the operating system. First choice would be to try out MacOS X, but as you know that's not possible on a PC. So, the actual choice will be which linux distribution to pick. |

Complex thoughts (Feb 04 2005 19:58 GMT) - I have a nephew in Richmond whose birthday is today -- when I called to wish him a happy birthday, his mother told me that it was snowing there. It wasn't snowing here. I've been writing a series of articles, along with a colleague, on "needless complexity", and the first one was published today as part of Think Research. The others are all in the editor's hands in pretty much final form (subject to last thoughts when we see the HTMLized versions!), and should appear on the Services Research page over the next few weeks. |

Microsoft Presentation & Highway 2 Madness! (Feb 04 2005 19:58 GMT) - Yesterday afternoon I drove to Calgary to deliver a presentation at the University of Calgary. I spoke to around 60 students about "living the digital lifestyle", otherwise known as the gadget talk. As it was a Microsoft event, all of the gadgets were MS-related, like my Zen Touch, XBOX, etc. I think the event went really well, and the initial feedback was quite positive! I left Calgary around 8: |

Mobile Data Plan Comparisons for Smartphones (Feb 04 2005 19:58 GMT) - There seems to be a whole lot of confusion out there about the various rates for data communications for cell phones. I know I've been confused whenever I've tried to tackle the issue of which providers offer what kinds of services for how much. They just don't make it very easy to get a quick idea of what they offer. Part of the problem is that carriers actually separate data in different ways for different niche markets. You have one type of data that is geared towards their premier youth market that conentrates on text or multimedia messages, browsing WAP sites, and downloading ringtones. |
