Back in a while
I haven't written anything for awhile...I've been traveling a lot. I was in Moscow to give a keynote speech at Interop, Napa and San Francisco and New Orleans and will be back in Canada soon. I decided to give globalpov a rest for a month or two, because it's too difficult when I'm traveling and I guess, I'm a little tired and need to be recharged to find things to write about.
As far as privacy goes, it has been quite difficult to generate mainstream interest in the subject. Reporters are quick to do extreme disaster stories when something happens to some nice old lady, but are less inclined to do "if this goes on" kind of pieces.
Technology is still interesting. To me, at least. I was playing wii the other night and ruminating about pong and space invaders back in the '70s. Pretty amazing technological leap.
Advertising still ticks me off--a lot.
Politics seem sort of inevitable right now. Obama v. McCain, right? Still no real issues surfacing, although the debates really ought to be some sort of war referendum.
Anyway, I'll be back online in a few weeks.
