I use eFax today, and it's a terrible service IMO. Very sloppy interface. IAAL, and I'm constantly presented with the problem that hellofax solves. I'm current using RightSignature as a way around it, but it's not an ideal solution since

It's not their style. Toyota got to where they are today by patiently building up an organization that beats their competition. They play fair and square, even when their enemies don't. I was recently at the Toyota museum in Nagoya. Toyo

The floor mat replacement was a red herring. I've used aftermarket mats in cars without proper pins, and it's a matter of using your brain to not get them tangled up in the accelerator (which is actually hard to do). Stupid people do stup

I find that people outside Asia are extremely ignorant about Japan. This kind of pop journalism fills the void, but doesn't actually shed any light. Visiting Japan is like visiting the home of someone who keeps everything in its place – n

Me too. I'm also here to say "told you so" to the many, many people who refused to listen. Fortunately, Toyota knew how fickle Americans are, and weathered the storm patiently. After all, we do buy their cars in the end!

The author also completely misses the business case: putting a single gateway through which Google can index makes sense for huge content generators. Sites like Twitter actually have some leverage with Google, as the Twitter firehose is mo

I was in Japan when this controversy was on the front page of every American paper. The people in Nagoya were talking about what puppets of their news Americans are. It's not as if Japanese people are any different. Local people weren't

Well, that's one hell of a marketing strategy. I'm chalking this one up to poor sense of humor and put Groupon in the deadpool.

IAAL. If you do the self-service route for terms of service, make sure you do your homework. If you do a search/replace on someone else's terms (even those offered under CC or other permissive licenses), make sure you at least run some Go

Don't get too excited. iPhone is not very popular in Japan. You rarely see one there.

This makes no sense to me at all. Almost no one uses iPhone in Japan in my experience. Just about everyone is using the standard long-rectangular clamshell form factor. This article has to be wrong. Update: Aha, probably comes down to "s

The problem with Facebook is and will always be this: when you signed up, you signed away your rights to privacy. If you think publishing into their social graph is worth letting them spy on you, go for it. If you want access to their socia

Jeff Jarvis is right, except he shouldn't be so confused about why he's right. There have been proposals for intermediated privacy settings controlled by users since the early 2000's (at least). The problem is that commercial websites neve

"private sharing via Dropbox" Wouldn't that expose your passwords to a prying DropBox admin? I don't use DB, so I'm not sure whether you generate your own key to encrypt data at rest.

I think it's great that you're interested in the law, but I think you're missing some basic copyright concepts here. These things don't lend themselves to brief discussion, naturally, but I'll try anyway: 1. What you're looking to enforce

No, this won't fly. Maybe a lawsuit based on trade secret misappropriation, but not infringement of copyright.

Just to be clear: the point is that wild speculative hype is rampant. The fact that they are occasionally correct is probably more a function of probabilities than legwork or rational thought.

"If you are like most, you kill more time hopping around on Facebook than you do exploring the Net." Uhhh...not even remotely applicable to me, unless by "the Net" he is referring to a Sandra Bullock movie.
