Hacking democracy, Canadian style

Comment in News (6 diggs, 0 replies) - on 09/25/2008
I think it is possible for a movement to organize itself online and vote strategically to influence the outcome of this election in key swing ridings. But with less than three weeks to go, the question is will the campaign be able to reach the majority of … (see comment)

You've signed the petition, you're being strong and holding off on that iPhone purchase until you see reasonable plans. Now....cancel ANYTHING Rogers! I'm calling Rogers Cable on Friday, July 11th and canceling my $100/mo cable package with a special not … (see comment)

Canadian Apple Stores won't sell iPhone 3G thanks to Rogers

Comment in News (132 diggs, 3 replies) - on 07/08/2008
This is fantastic news! I don't know how much customer volume Apple is cutting off from Rogers versus their initial plans with these moves, but it seems very significant. Between this and the 50,000 people who just say no to Rogers we're seeing that, yes … (see comment)

Need out of your iPhone contract? $1100 please

Total insanity! Note that $1100 is the MINIMUM cancellation fee. Rogers plumbs new depths of customer rape. (see comment)

Rogers iPhone Early Cancellation $1100!

Comment in News (3 diggs, 0 replies) - on 07/01/2008
If there were any doubt that Rogers pricing strategy is all about customer entrapment and gouging, this should put it to rest. $1100 is the MIN cancellation fee! (see comment)

Fischer: Israel will attack Iran before Bush leaves office

Comment in News (2 diggs, 0 replies) - on 06/02/2008
A reasonable scenario and one that the Obama campaign will have to take seriously, forcing the campaign to engage early and often with Israel in order to reassure it of its strategic options during an Obama presidency. I hope that a sober assessment will … (see comment)

Bell Canada rep calls journalist "lemmings" on Facebook

Comment in News (9 diggs, 1 reply) - on 03/29/2008
Here's one definition of a lemming: "a person who unthinkingly joins a mass movement". In the context of the press coverage of Bell over the past few days perhaps he's saying that journalist are suckers for believing his spin. Or perhaps he thinks they ar … (see comment)

Bell Canada rep calls journalist "lemmings" on Facebook

Comment in News (9 diggs, 1 reply) - on 03/29/2008
This is just unbelievable. To actually publicly mock journalists for buying the lies of a PR hack on Facebook is ballsy in the extreme. Net neutrality advocates are going to have a field day with this! If you would like to be Jason Laszlo's friend and see … (see comment)

Canadian Government sticks it to the big cellular providers

Comment in News (4 diggs, 0 replies) - on 11/29/2007
This is really exciting news. They got the policy exactly right and hopefully this will accelerate innovation very soon. What I don't understand is why the incumbents didn't see the writing on the wall ages ago and adjusted their pricing strategies to a … (see comment)

Facebook changes group rules

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 09/18/2007
Ok, this is ridiculous! If Facebook is going to become the defacto standard social utility, then it will have to come up with something approaching a reasonable FREEMIUM pricing model. How about this as a model to follow: http://www.highrisehq.com/signu … (see comment)

Happens in Italy: threatened for supporting a BarCamp

Comment in News (0 diggs, 0 replies) - on 02/27/2007
BarCamp has always had a latent political aspect. Openness and participation is risky in a proprietary and closed world, even threatening. This story really makes that very very clear. DUGG! (see comment)

Comment in News (4 diggs, 0 replies) - on 01/29/2007
I'm not big on hate myself. Doesn't really do anything, so why bother? The TTC is an old institution, creaking under the weight of history and neglect. The essence of this event is citizen power that loves the TTC and wants to make it better. There is … (see comment)
