1994: "Today": "What is the Internet, Anyway?"

Some confusion is obvious on the set of NBC's "Today" show, regarding the Internet and the @-sign. This is reportedly footage from between segments that was not originally aired, and apparently dates to January 1994, around the time of the Northridge earthquake (that occurred literally five minutes from where I'm sitting, and which I remember very well indeed). Both the video and audio of this clip were in terrible shape when I received it recently -- I've cleaned up both as much as possible, though the quality (especially hue distortion) still definitely isn't anything to write home about. Don't laugh too hard at Bryant Gumbel and Katie Couric. It's easy to forget how relatively recent a phenomenon the Internet is for most persons who use it today!

The Internet of Things

asmarterplanet.com Video featuring, from IBM Mike Wing, Andy Stanford-Clark and John Tolva. Over the past century but accelerating over the past couple of decades, we have seen the emergence of a kind of global data field. The planet itself - natural systems, human systems, physical objects - have always generated an enormous amount of data, but we didnt used to be able to hear it, to see it, to capture it. Now we can because all of this stuff is now instrumented. And its all interconnected, so now we can actually have access to it. So, in effect, the planet has grown a central nervous system. Look at that complex set of relationships among all of these complex systems. If we can actually begin to see the patterns in the data, then we have a much better chance of getting our arms around this. Thats where societies become more efficient, thats where more innovation is sparked. When we talk about a smarter planet, you can say that it has two dimensions. One is to be more efficient, be less destructive, to connect different aspects of life which do affect each other in more conscience and deliberate and intelligent ways. But the other is also to generate fundamentally new insights, new activity, new forms of social relations. So you could look at the planet as an information, creation and transmission system, and the universe was hearing its information but we werent. But increasingly now we can, early days, baby steps days, but we can actually begin to hear the planet <b>...</b>

The Future Internet: Service Web 3.0

Future Internet - Supported by STI International: www.sti2.org With over a billion users, today's Internet is arguably the most successful human artifact ever created. The Future Internet, an initiative driven by the European Union, has become a prime research focus of STI International and the Service Web 3.0 project. In order to explain, promote, and attract new contributors, we created a video to be viewed by stakeholders, who may be non-experts, in a new generation Internet. The video outlines the basic themes of the European Union's Future Internet initiative. These include an Internet of Services, where services are ubiquitous; an Internet of Things where in principle every physical object becomes an online addressable resource; a Mobile Internet where 24/7 seamless connectivity over multiple devices is the norm; and the need for semantics in order to meet the challenges presented by the dramatic increase in the scale of content and users.

RAP NEWS 4: WWWAR on the Internet (Wikileaks v The Pentagon)

thejuicemedia.com Rap News - episode 4 we resume our lyrical forays into the world of rhyme and reason, exploring the importance of the Internets. Robert Foster casts a critical rhyme over Senator Joe (Lie)berman's proposed bill to shut down the world-wide-web in case of [quotation mark] an emergency [/quotation mark]. But - most importantly - we discuss something else which has been leaking even more profusely than a BP oil well. An organisation of ultra-inspiring infectively-courageous cybernauts - aka Wikileaks - has been taking on the Fistagon and giving that slumbering Fourth Estate a much-needed kick in the arse, reminding us how important the internet is as a tool for open information and for holding corrupt government to account. What is Wikileaks? Who is Julian Assange? And why is it so important that we know what's happening right now? Find out with your charming host, Robert Foster. **Episode dedicated to Mama Wolf - happy birthday!** Juice Rap News: written by Giordano Nanni; lyrics and performance by Hugo Farrant.

Protect IP Act Breaks the Internet

When I found out Fight for the Future needed help with their campaign against a new bill called PROTECT-IP, I had to take a little time away from Everything is a Remix Part 4 and produce the video above. PROTECT-IP is the latest piece of legislation aiming to chip away at your online rights in the name of protecting the entertainment industry's business model. It's legislation that won't work, will give us yet more lawsuits, and will make the net worse. Whether you lean right and hate business regulation, lean left and hate censorship, or lean neither way but hate useless legislation, PROTECT-IP is a bill everyone should oppose. I encourage you to head over to Fight For the Future and contact congress. fightforthefuture.org

Venomfangx Apologizes to the Internets

I own the intellectual property and copyright to this video. This video is copyright free. This video is the resolution to the conflict between myself and Venomfangx. Venomfangx filed some baseless DMCAs against me. Venomfangx made some nasty statements about me. Venomfangx read a sincere (or close enough) apology, and gave me the intellectual property rights to it. Thats pretty much it. The moral? DON'T FILE DMCAs UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. THEY ARE NOT A CONSEQUENCE FREE WAY OF INHIBITING FREE SPEECH.

The Hood Internet - "Sprawl Of Glass (Arcade Fire vs Blondie)

You probably noticed the strong new wave streak running through Arcade Fire's The Suburbs, especially on the Régine Chassagne-fronted "Sprawl II." The Hood Internet's ABX also picked up on the song's rhythmic similarities to Blondie's "Heart Of Glass" when he created this mashup. I like that the guitar melody of the latter song comes up subtly and naturally after Régine's verses. Listen:
