Loose Wire Blog- The Blogging Revolution is Over, But That’s Not the Point February 20, 2012I was digging through some of my old columns the other day, trying to see if I had predicted anything right. Here's what I had to say 10 years ago this month, about a new and still obscure habit called blogging: I'd like to think that blogs do what the much vaunted portal of the [...]jeremy.wagstaff@gmail.com (Jeremy Wagstaff)
- Facebook’s daunting Asian challenge February 3, 2012Here's a piece I pulled together with the help of Reuters reporters Andjarsari Paramaditha, Camilo Mejia and Estelle Griepink in JAKARTA, Harichandan Arakali in BANGALORE, Lee Chyen Yee in HONG KONG, Kazunori Takada in SHANGHAI and Harry Suhartono in SINGAPORE. Facebook aims to connect all two billion Internet users. So far it has captured 845 [...]jeremy.wagstaff@gmail.com (Jeremy Wagstaff)
- The Tablet is the Computer January 24, 2012One thing discussed often and at great length in nerdy circles these days is this: Is the tablet—by which we really mean the Apple iPad, because it created the market, and presently accounts for nearly two thirds of it—a computer. A PC, if you will? Some say that the iPad is not really a computer. [...]jeremy.wagstaff@gmail.com (Jeremy Wagstaff)

This worked [...]jeremy.wagstaff@gmail.com (Jeremy Wagstaff)

- The Browser Doesn’t Matter So Long As It Goes to Google December 25, 2011The whole Google/Firefox issue is an interesting one: Google is the default search engine in Firefox because it pays to be there. The three-year deal expired in November 2011. Would they renew? Some thought no. They were wrong. Not only has Google renewed the deal whereby it effectively bankrolls Firefox, but it's the first time [...]jeremy.wagstaff@gmail.com (Jeremy Wagstaff)
- Dragon Tattoo: Mac or Vaio? December 23, 2011Some folk have suggested that because Sony is behind the new version of the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo all the product placements are Vaio: This would be a slap in the face of the original novel and the Swedish version, which stuck pretty closely to the text. But I'm not sure. Here's another picture [...]jeremy.wagstaff@gmail.com (Jeremy Wagstaff)
- Inside the Web of Things December 21, 2011This is a slightly longer version of a piece I've recorded for the BBC World Service I've long dreamed of an Internet of things, where all the stuff in my life speaks to each other instead of me having to the talking. The vision is relatively simple: each gadget is assigned an Internet address and [...]jeremy.wagstaff@gmail.com (Jeremy Wagstaff)
