Electronic War
Sniffing out bombs along roadsides is difficult. The fact that Insurgent forces were able to jam the anti IED sniffing device so quick shows a lot of sophistication and skill. Where are they safe to design such solutions? Surely, the model is mobile.

Clinton Rebuffs Liberal bloggers at Kos convention ...
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/
" CHICAGO (AP) — Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton refused Saturday to forsake campaign donations from lobbyists, turning aside challenges from her two main rivals with a rare defense of the special interest industry..."
"...A lot of those lobbyists, whether you like it or not, represent real Americans, they actually do,” Clinton said, drawing boos and hisses from liberal bloggers at the second Yearly Kos convention."
What do you expect and why does this seem so out of sorts? I would suggest Clinton attack such Liberal bias with an ongoing web presence that is not so "cute." Interactive Immersion is the goal ...
The funny YouTube Video's are cool and all but what do they really accomplish? Not much ... They actually achieve the opposite ...
It's time for Senator Clinton to go on the WEB offensive ...
More soon ...

Keeping an Eye on Design ... 2.0 style is old school
A recent article on C|NET said the following:
Consumers say they don't want to be encumbered by the complexity of the products they buy. Designers are responding with seamless blends of software, hardware, and aesthetics. Tech designs new philosophy.
Simplicity, Visualization, Personal connection, Beyond the browser, Beyond the browser.
Consumers say they don't want to be encumbered by the complexity of the products they buy.
I would venture to say that this has been apparent to the new breed of ID and IA's out there. Simply put - Keep it Simple has always been a request from the user.
Why now to make it happen?

Web 2.0 enticements for students
C|Net reports that examples are coming out about students using Web 2.0 tools to enhance the classroom experience.
Hello. Those kids were using wiki, IM, SNS, etc. for some time before they even showed up to class .. Must make the teacher look old or at least a "wannabe."
We believe that the Web is a tool and has been for some time. That we had to wait for Web 2.0 is funny ...

Data mining has been going on forever ...
What is going on here?
Why do we keep hearing about Famous tech types (what's that?) having it up to their ears that they are being Friended or Pinged to death?
And why are people so surprised that FaceBook and other Data Generating sites would actually not want to use the Data for as long as possible? At a minimum they are mining that data to maximize their own GUI and UI. With millions of active users, it is astounding what their Architects can come up with. Establishing an Advertising model, knowingly, is precisly what this site had in mind when they outlined and posted their Interface (website)from the start. Otherwise they would have made it easy to hide personnel information sooner. They are to good to have missed that for so long. They waited for user response before they acted.

YouTube video debate actually worked
Why this is even in question is beyond me, but Citizen 2.0 has risen further from the darkness. The debate is now considered a "bellwether" in that the popular press and the general "feel" out there is that this was a success. It even looks like CNN is being dropped in the Press! Then again, if it had not been, the web as a political instrument would have been badly wounded.
It was not and very few knew it would not be.

TechRide ... Online ALL the time.
We have been discussing the Candidates who have (off the record) been trying to manage the influx of debates and forums that have been presented to them by trying to limit the amount. This phenomenon is new; the citizen 2.0 demands interaction. Now.
Access such as this will diminish in the near future. We are in unprecedented times.
What would Benjamin Franklin say to this Open Source Democracy?
How can Candidates handle such requests in the future? Will they?
We will post the podcasts soon.
