Why Draconian DRM sucks and Adobe sucks even more
I’ll admit to coveting an Android phone today. Not because it is a better device than my iPhone (it isn’t) and not because I want to be on the Verizon network. I was interested in the Droid phone because I am getting extremely frustrated with protectionist DRM systems and the policies Apple is using to keep applications like Google Voice out of the App Store. Over the past weeks I’ve had a very frustrating experience with Adobe and DRM locks they have put on my system that even Adobe can’t seem to remove.

Your Movements Speak for Themselves: Space-Time Travel Data is Analytic Super-Food!
This is a must read blog post by Jeff Jonas – Mobile devices in America are generating something like 600 billion geo-spatially tagged transactions per day. Every call, text message, email and data transfer handled by your mobile device creates a transaction with your space-time coordinate (to roughly 60 meters accuracy if there are three cell towers in range), whether you have GPS or not. Got a Blackberry? Every few minutes, it sends a heartbeat, creating a transaction whether you are using the phone or not. If the device is GPS-enabled and you’re using a location-based service your location is accurate to somewhere between 10 and 30 meters. Using Wi-Fi?
