Okay, the flight is further delayed so I have a bit more time. I also realized the last few entries has been pretty boring (except for my wife and my boss who needs to keep track where I am :-) so let me talk about some of the interesting things I saw this trip. 1. […]

My Yahoo! support RSS
Anyone notice that the brand new My Yahoo! now support RSS & Atom syndication? It is so cool that I could almost give up my NetNewsWire…almost :-)
IPv6 Day
Jeff Pulver proposed an interesting idea called IPv6 Day: Collectivity we should pick a day, at some point in the near and foreseeable future and push everyone to reboot themselves and make it such that from that point forward, IPv6 will be supported on all networks which interact with the public Internet. In geeks term, […]
Network Technology Paradigm Shift
Bob Shaw (from ITU) just did some presentation in Africa (focus on ENUM). But more importantly, I like what he said on Network Technology Shift, which is very similar to what I blog about last year. ITU-T Definition of NGN (Feb 2004) A Next Generation Network (NGN) is a packetbased network able to provide services […]
Software Patents
The news that Linux potentially infringes 283 patents initiate a strong reaction from the OSS community. Actually, just look at some examples of software patents and you will see the most common algorithms like Quicksort (#5,175,857) and Random Number Generator (#5,251,165). So pardon me while I marvel : “Only 283 patents?” Some folks, like Richard […]
Personal iTunes server
I stay up last night to fiddle with something really cool : iTunes Server on Linux. Now, I can have all my MP3s on my Linux server streamed to my Mac & Windows (running iTunes). And rendezvous (or mDNS) is incredible. Fire up my iTunes and it automatically detected my “home jukebox” with my MP3s. […]
Seoul Day 3 – Korea IT 8-3-9 Strategy
I arrived in Seoul last night and catch dinner with dda. Ah, Korean BBQ, how I missed it! Then we went over to Bar 66 for beer with Anthony (the Strategic Director of Lucent whom I met on plane on the way here). Great fun and dda, thanks for putting up with me at your […]
Tracking down a script kiddie
Xiulin IM me urgently that someone defaced her blog last night. “OMG! Her blog is on my machine!” as I started to work to find how “dodo”1 managed to do it. My biggest concern is that if he managed to break other stuff I have on my machine! So after helping her to restore her […]
Ericsson closing down THE Bluetooth unit
Does this means the Bluetooth is dying? (via isen.blog) Ericsson is pulling the plug on its technology licensing unit, the wholly-owned subsidiary which invented Bluetooth wireless technology and became the driving force behind the company’s Bluetooth initiative. Or does that means they give up collecting royalty for Bluetooth and therefore, drive more adoption of Bluetooth? […]
Gmail FS
This is so cool! It turns your Gmail account into a Linux mountable filesystem! (via Slashdot). What this means is you can store files onto Gmail account as if it is like your own harddisk and can be accessed from anywhere :-) Actually I already have this sort of ‘remote harddisk’ on my computer setup […]
