Locast by the MIT Mobile Experience Lab
MIT getting into the tourism / location aware guides / personal concierge market. Nothing killer about it yet - but theiy're doing some testing which might reveal something that can make this potential market a reality. Because I'm not sure whether for many people, "travel" should be as pre-defined as this. To me, Travel is about discovering what a place is like through authentic, spontaneous experiences. I wonder how this can be supported by location aware technologyJune 27 2009

Wow back in 1995 did Mark Weiser write this. The start of a manifesto for making interfaces invisible. A great template for how we could approach mobile service design in 2009 and beyondFebruary 19 2009

Pasta&Vinegar " Blog Archive " About space and 'plek'
Confused about the difference between space and place? 'Plek' - is the dutch word for Place... almost. It refers to the meaning of a physical space to an individual.

Orange Cone: Finite and Infinite Terms: the trouble with optimistic names
Naming is under-rated it seems. What you get is what you call it. "Ubiquitous computing" has always been a mouthful - and as Mike Kuniavsky suggests, it's too optimistic for for its own good. What's needed is a new name - maybe a new definition for the devices, data, and interactions that surround us. Something thats a little more articulate, up-to-date & pragmatic. It obvious really - as 'future' 1980's technology becomes normal, it's definitions should change.January 30 2009

Some future facing thoughts about the role of computing 'applications' - and how they will cease to be relevant in a mobile future. It does seem sometimes that the notion of having to 'open' and 'quit' applications on a device thats always on, connected and on me supports the technical requirements of the device, rather than the much more user-centric messaging Memelets that Golding talks about here...
