Google Maps Mobile Users Send Traffic Data - http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2009...
Daniel Rowley, John Blossom, Mike Chelen and 2 other people liked this
"If you use the mobile Google Maps application on a phone that has GPS, you're sending Google real-time traffic information. "When you choose to enable Google Maps with My Location, your phone sends anonymous bits of data back to Google describing how fast you're moving. When we combine your speed with the speed of other phones on the road, across thousands of phones moving around a city at any given time, we can get a pretty good picture of live traffic conditions," explains Google."

Question/Rant: AT&T says it must prohibit Skype & other VOIP services over 3G on iPhone b/c it's too much for it's network to handle. Putting that being BS aside, does anyone know the logic behind them allowing Skype over 3G if your using a laptop with an AT&T 3G wireless card. I'm not following AT&T's logic except that they can extort more $

Does there need to be any other reason? I doubt there is one. This is one of the companies, after all, that charges basic SMS at the rate of about $1,000,000,000 for a terabyte, while the same volume of data can be FedEx'ed on a new hard disk for $100.

I believe if you look at the TOS, you are in breach of contract to use VoIP apps even on a laptop using a WWAN broadband modem from them. That said, I suspect many people do. After all, I run Skype all the time as much for IM as I do for VoIP. This is purely a case of them trying to protect old business models. Running VoIP over data is probably the same or less over-the-air data as an...

It's just a shame for consumers b/c if there wasn't a barrier to entry with the infrastructure costs etc... a company like AT&T trying to save their dying business model would have died away years ago. But because their government subsidized and their are barriers to entry - consumers get the shaft as we wait for AT&T to screw us as they die a slow but certain death. They have to realize that their destiny is to be a non-consumer facing datapipe - like the public water company.
- Mike Bracco
Well, I think it's not just cost ... look at how many of the devices there are. Ask anyone who has an iPhone whether AT&T's network can handle all their users using VOIP and video streaming apps ;-)
- Joel Bennett
Clark: Ok I get that but it's not really a cost issue I don't think. If it was, then they would offer iPhone users a $60 data plan that allowed the Skype app to use 3G - But they don't. They are just protecting their old business model.
- Mike Bracco
If the issue is that the network would die if every iPhone user used VOIP then fine - limit access by just making it really expensive - but they don't even do that.

Padmapper Makes Apartment Hunting Easier - http://www.appscout.com/2009...

Arvin Dang liked this
"The service takes Craigslist rental listings and puts them on a Google map to make them easier to visualize, browse, and filter based on rent, keyword, pet-friendliness, or even distance to mass transit. Padmapper is a pretty straight forward Google Maps mashup. Each pinpoint on the map represents a listing on Craigslist for housing. You can click on the pin to open a balloon that shows you everything you need to know about the listing. The title is a link to the actual post on Craigslist, and the number of bedrooms and bathrooms is listed in the balloon. Additionally, you can see the address, how fresh the listing is, and browse photos of the unit if they're available. The listing balloon also has the poster's Craigslist-generated e-mail address and their phone number if you want to give them a call."

It does seem to be a bit easier to love posterous if you're looking to share iPhone 3GS video with it.
- Daniel J. Pritchett
from IM
It's really the posting audio and video from the iPhone (and other mobiles) that I think is interesting. FF should add that feature quickly if they want to become the social MMS to the Twitter social SMS. Having private groups for these personal mobile captured images, audio, and videos is an important feature both FF and Posterous share. Posting to a public YouTube to get your video into FF is far from ideal.
- Chip Ramsey
iPhone video can be shared very easily to FriendFeed via email share@friendfeed.com or upload video to YouTube and be sure you've added your YouTube service to FF and wala you're all set. Posterous does have more sophisticated posting options *hint, hint FF team*

I was under the impression that you could not send videos from the iPhone 3GS to FF and have them display inline. I guess I will have to test the functionality when my 3GS arrives. I understand the YouTube route, but want to keep my family videos, etc. in a private group. I don't think most people want to be spammed by videos of my son doing the robot as he slides down his new slide or my daughter singing like a bizarro Mariah Carey. I could make a private Posterous, but would prefer to keep it in FF.

I like Posterous I really do but I've yet to find the problem it solves. My primary output comes via my blog, misc content via Tumblr, and Friendfeed for most everything else.

TECH RANT: I wanted to write an iPhone app to interface with my car - control various functions and provide analytics. However, my car's OS doesn't have and API. How absurd is it that in 2009 car manufactures would create closed off gardens and not allow people to build apps for their cars. :)

http://openecu.org/index... is a place to start. I know that you can, using linux interface with your car using the diagnostics port. If your car was running windows it would pull over to the side of the road every time you accelerated and you would need to get out and hold the door handle, key and antenna to get it to restart.

I know alot of the embeded engineers who provide the systems to calibrate the ECU for like toyota and honda... I told them they need to make a little bluetooth plugin so you can do just that about 6 months ago. these guys are super embedded otaku they could do it, just need to talk them into it. Ie beer, manga, maid cafe, cabarets things like that and its a done deal
- Robert Higgins
Mike: GM's OnStar service does that, albeit via satellite connections and not via 3G. There are a LOT of reasons why cars don't have APIs, I'll go through a few: 1)Unlike PCs, auto computing isn't centralized and can be VERY heterogeneous 2)Accident/Warranty liability and risk of serious damage 3)To lock drivers into the OEM's dealer/supply network 4)No consumer demand thereof

The arguments against lack rigour. Cars are easily modified as is. Every 17 year old here is "chipping" their Subaru.
- Matt G
LANjackal: But don't you think down the road 10 years maybe....that some sort of standardization will be developed - whether in the form of an OS or otherwise. In my opinion, every device that has a computer today will have some sort of OS or standardization built in to allow 3rd parties to create cool stuff or it. For example, my coffee machine has a computer in it but I can't control or interface with it....at least right now. I think that will all change.
- Mike Bracco
At the core of things in the supplier chain, things are probably already standardized in terms of embedded OSes. Things may be heading your way already with Ford's Sync feature - supplied by MS - and bluetooth/iPod integration. As a mechanical engineer, I can tell you that one of the differences between the mechanical world and the tech one is that in the mechanical world the emphasis...

Google Dips Its Toe Into Travel Space With City Tours - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...

Google has just debuted the latest entry to its fleet of Labs products, introducing the search giant to the travel space. Dubbed City Tours, the new site can build itineraries for brief trips to locations around the globe in a matter of seconds. At this point details on the new product are fairly sparse — it looks like Google hasn’t written its customary blog post yet, but given how basic the product is it’s pretty easy to figure out how it works.

Getting started is incredibly easy — just type in where you’re visiting (say, San Francisco or London), and Google will present a suggested itinerary spanning a three day trip, with around a dozen attractions per day depending on the city. From there you can change the number of days you’ll be staying (Google will show more attractions the longer you stay), and you can also manually...

So much here relies on your ultimate purpose. If you are building a brand, then I absolutely agree with the major points of this article.
