Given this is at Moscone -- anyone know what data links Google brought in to support the event? Also - I wonder if they brought in WAPS from Ruckus Wireless this time - or are they sticking with Meraki?

Not really, Orrick has a startup legal package where they give you a bunch of legal guidance, advice and documents as well as get you incorporated etc. Typically, its $10,000 or more in legal help. They dont require you to pay them unless y

This is utterly thinking out my ass, but here is a question I had about IPv6 that I thought I would ask: Could it make sense to use a network wrapper around some types of objects, such that each object has an IPv6 address - and all communic

HL-7 is a standard, and many many apps already do this. Getting companies to change away from hl-7 due to it being "cryptic" is pretty much going to be a show stopper.

Get kids/students to participate in snapping a pic of a leaf any opportunity they get to feed the data into the system. Reward them somehow. Ask one simple question with each pic take "How many trees of this type would you estimate are in y

It would be great if you could take a pic of a tree leaf, and i will capture the geoloc of the pic as well and plot where that tree is on the map - and start tracking where all types of trees live.

I wonder how easily man-in-the-middle attacks via node spoofing would be. You masquerade as a node by re-hosting their content and you capture any other client that accesses your proxy of that information.

I would like to see some other concepts taught using these devices. Specifically clustering, meshing, cloud etc. You get a bunch of these devices and arrange them into a cluster/cloud of nano-nodes and teach kids (teens) how to setup cluste

EDIT; You also need to make sure you inlcude a statment of what the quote/project IS NOT. They need to sign off on this too. So that when they ask for something, and if it is describe in what the work is NOT, then there will be no confusion

Google is an advertising and marketing company. Only. By developing a location aware service they can target you with relevant ads from services in your proximity. The creation of a social networking service would allow this -- though I thi

That's the same thing they intend to do with this service offering, pivoting from free to paid as soon as the startup has enough traffic/revenue :)

This is something I dont understand; Why are we not using e-ink in signage more. E-readers are great gadgets - but there is a multi-billion dollar signage market that is waiting for disruption. Make e-ink screens in larger formats and use t

Fluff piece with no info. Here is the problem that I have with google trying to "go social" (Disclaimer, I don't have an FB account - so I am not intended target) First, social apps are designed around the idea that you have a common portal

I would wonder if whomever their sys ad was, deliberately left their perimeter weak. Also, did they never do a security audit??

Yeah - but this is actually the most brilliant move that Facebook can make - and makes such greater sense than eBay. You have a service of 500 MILLION accounts that actually talk to eachother. The play here is so fucking obvious: the face
