Network Companies are on the rise, Google is taking a breather

Sean Parker (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Parker) offers up quite an interesting perspective on the importance of network companies. I find this to be extremely fascinating because it questions the value of data portability over network data.

Put This On

What an awesome web series... I'm not particularly interested in fashion or anything similar, but they really have done a great job of presenting this kind of information.
I really hope they preserve the documentary style in future episodes.
By the way... have you ever seen anyone so passionate about denim/jeans as Mike Hodis?

Number 3
He was able to remove the bait from the trap once before. He was a brave warrier an will get a respectful burial in the trash compactor.

Real-time screens finally making their way into NYC subways
In February, NYC Transit installed video screens on the platform in the Myrtle-Wyckoff station in Brooklyn, showing the locations of every L train on the line, updated every 15 seconds. And now we know from the Twitter machine that the screens have arrived at Bedford Avenue. NYC Transit posted these photos, and we're told the screens have been installed at various points throughout the station.
The screens cull data from the L line’s computerized operating system, which tracks exact train locations and then shows them advancing (or not!) along the screen. Pretty cool stuff, but this is hipster central; the MTA needs to make these screens interactive and let us play some L train Frogger while we wait.
If the pilot program goes well, it may be expanded to other stations. The MTA also points out this is part of new MTA Chairman Jay Walder's plan to bring "accurate arrival information and modern fare technology" to riders.

IMHO, this is long overdue (but quite welcome). Hopefully this will graduate out of the pilot program in into full effect around the city.
