Bruce Sterling -- The Internet of Things http://www.itconversations.com/shows/detail717.html [runtime: 00:57:41, 26.4 mb, recorded 2006-03-06] 2006 O'reilly Emerging Technology Conference. Good stuff funny penetrating literate sensibilty to the role and presence of names and namespaces as technocultural signs and signifiers Another more recent version of his thinking expands on the ideas is his Keynote at Unicomp http://ubicomp.org/ubicomp2006/ In my mind highly relevant to the best of the debates which rage here {KU vs.AS} I like the way Bruce stresses the value and need for such dialogue and namespace consciousness ------ Jason
