The Wired 40 for 2005. Lots of big companies with big ideas here. Proof positive that the next big thing may come from one of the bigcos – but not a guarantee of that by any stretch of the imagination.
If you like baseball,
you’ll love Michael Lewis’ article on two unlikely young players: Absolutely, Power Corrupts. The larger question: is the end of steroids (assuming we’re there) the beginning of a renaissance of small-ball?
Since it was published,
a few people have noted misgivings about the article by Janice Fraser that I linked to last week; notably Andre Torrez, maker of a great number of really cool things on the net. See also Kottke’s A whole new internet?. I still like Fraser’s piece, but it doesn’t capture the whole story – the story you already know if you’re a maker of things on the internet. But for a non-maker audience – reader, community participant, casual browser – I think the piece does have merit and is still worth a read.
The WiFi everywhere:
The Boston Globe is running a good story about the spread of WiFi throughout cities: The Year of Living Wirelessly.
Janice Fraser
of Adaptive Path: It’s a whole new internet. As usual more technically-inclined people will scoff at this (and they have been dismissive since JJG’s article on Ajax a few weeks ago), but they miss the point.
