Email Me 2007-11-13 03:00:00 Having to live offline when every one in your social and work circles seems to be living in cyberspace is a new king of angst. It is very hard to perceive life offline particularly for those who have started taking internet for granted.Like any one else, internet for me has been an easier way to obtain information, work, socialize or spend my leisure time, if I ever have any. It was a shortcut to so many things. Then all of a sudden I am once again thrown into digital Dark Age. This happened when I was assigned a project in an industrial concern near Pattoki. The project site where I am working these days is located only 1.5 kilometres from Karachi-Peshawar National Highway in the rural hinterland of Punjab. It is an industrial hub and the PTCL landlines are there. Pattoki town that has a claim to an international fame due to flower nurseries already can boast of the Internet service. But what surprised me was that it is not possible to connect to internet and go online just about 20 k ...

You Still Use Emoticons, Smilies? 2007-11-11 21:00:00 The tiny winy sequences of type characters referred to as smileys or emoticons are universal among those who live on the web across cultures through out the cyber world. Sometimes amusing and at times meaningful, smileys are used in electronic communication to enrich the meaning of text based messages.The idea of graphically depicting human emotions is not new. BBC claims that, “the original smiley was created in 1964 by commercial artist Harvey Ball.” Russian writer Vladimir Nobaokov who authored Lolita, answering a question in 1969 was quoted by Scott E. Fahlman as saying , “I often think there should exist a special typographichal sign for a smile- some sort of concave mark, a supine round bracket.”“The emoticon or “smiley” being discussed is the first ASCII smiley,” reads Plato Emoticons, “like so many things, PLATO was doing emoticons and smileys, online and on screen years earlier. In fact, emoticons on PLATO were already an art form by 1976. PLATO users began ...

Blogging to Get Poor Communities Talking 2007-11-11 00:00:00 Damaria SenneI recently suggested to the CEO of the Universal Service and Access Agency of South Africa (USAASA) that he start a blog for his organisation. My explanation to him was much shorter, but I decided to elaborate on this blog post why universal service agencies in developing countries need to use web technologies to expand their communications reach.USAASA was formed through the Electronic Communications Act, so it’s a government entity. It’s responsible for making sure that people living in remote regions of the country, and those who are poor, gain access to telephones, the Internet, TV and radio.The agency has also built over two 230 multipurpose centres and over 150 telecentres across the country, and will build more over time. Poor communities use these centres to access phones, computers and the Internet at minimal cost.So why did I think this agency should start blogging?1. Connecting to partners- I think a blog is a perfect way for the agency to talk to its stakeh ... Blogging

Trail of Socrates 2007-11-09 23:00:00 The most influential philosopher of ages, Socrates consciously strove to perceive the truth after widespread vagueness prevailed over moral and ethical issues during his days. Socrates had outstanding understanding of ethics and morality and enjoyed exposing the double standards, practiced by the then high profile class and in religious institutes. This habit of Socrates created him more foes than friends and ultimately resulted in fatal trial. After the award of death sentence to Socrates, his followers started endeavouring to get his sentence cancelled and went to those at the helms of the affairs. The authorities argued that Socrates has corrupted the Athenian youth and he speaks against beliefs and gods of the masses. That is why he has rightly been sentenced to death? When nothing else worked the followers of Socrates resorted to requests and appeals that his life be spared.Authorities agreed that they will let go of Socrates only if he apologises. Happy on their success, support ...

Living with {in} Computers 2007-11-08 21:00:00 One billion personal computers have been sold across the world, says hi-tech consultancy Gartner Dataquest. The number of computers is set to explode in the next few years, reaching the two-billion mark by 2008. Unprecedented technology growth indeed!Evenly distributed, that will make approximately one personal computer per every six persons the world over. However, computers are not evenly distributed.Consider computer market in our own country: it is quite small. The market is divided in segments that buy (1) refurbished, (2) local brands, or (3) branded computers. There are more computers in urban areas as compared to rural hinterlands. Many still cannot afford them. What is more, old and used computers, monitors and accessories (read e-waste) are also shipped in from developed countries and sold locally. I have seen truckloads of used keyboards and monitors being unloaded at Hafeez Centre for sale. Which is one of the reasons that the frequency with which most users experience comp ...
