Windows Live teams up with social networks for contact portability
2008-03-25 16:49:00 Robert Scoble couldn't do it, but Windows Live can.Microsoft's Web-app division announced Tuesday that it has partnered with five social networks--LinkedIn, Tagged, Hi5, Bebo, and yes, Facebook--on a new project to facilitate address book portability. The partner social networks have agreed to use the Windows Live Contacts API so that members can import Windows Live contacts to their respective sites, as part of the new data-portability strategy that Microsoft outlined at its Mix conference earlier this month.In return, Microsoft has launched Invite2Messenger, a new service for users of those social networks so that they can invite the members of their friends lists to join Windows Live Messenger.This replaces "scraping," a widely used process of diving into one account on a social network or e-mail client's database to export contacts to another. It's technically unauthorized, and occasionally social networks make a stink about it--as Facebook did when blogger Scoble tested out...
Better Move Quickly to Take Advantage of Florida's Property Tax Portability
2008-03-23 22:27:00 Better Move Quickly to Take Advantage of Florida's Property Tax Portability Tampa, FL - It now seems likely that the Property Tax benefits provided by Amendment 1 will be short lived. So, if you plan to take advantage, you'd better move quickly! Much to my chagrin, Florida voters did pass Amendment 1 back in January. (I was against it as I believed then, and still believe that the passage of Amendment 1 would delay until at least 2011 or 2012 the real Property Tax reform that is needed here in Florida. So far, that seems to be the case. The Tax Committee's proposals, if passed in November, will not take effect until 2011, and the Senate still deems it appropriate to stand in the way of the meaningful property tax reform Florida must have to reignite its real estate driven economy. Nero is fiddling again, but this time it's Florida that is burning.) While Amendment 1 did not offer muc...
11 Digit Mobile Numbers India: Portability Regime & Future Planning On
2008-03-16 06:58:00 The Government of India has directed all the Indian telecom companies in India to make arrangements to make the mobile numbers from current existing 10 digits to now 11 digits. (It would be same as in China; the mobile numbers there are 11 digits already). Though no fixed time frame for this is clear! Than thereafter the mobile numbers will start from '90' in India instead of current, '9'. For example if a cell phone number is now: 9412024365, than it will become now 90 412024365. We have to weather the mobile consumer has to change his SIM card or Telcos will do it by own way without a need to change the existing SIM cards. GSM & CDMA telcos both have to make arrangements for this. This is due to the as Number Portability in India is on the cards and there will be a time when Indian Mobile consumers can switch any operator and could retain the same number. This is also due to the large subscription of mobile phones in India; cell phone is a huge success in India like China, t...

The Scoble scuffle: Facebook, Plaxo at odds over data portability
2008-01-03 21:27:00 A data import feature being tested by contact management site Plaxo hasn't gone over too well with social network Facebook. At least one alpha tester of the new script has had his Facebook account disabled, due to an alleged terms-of-service violation that brings to light the sticky debate over just how "open" the social Web is--and ideally should be. The controversy hit the Web when popular blogger and former Microsoft evangelist Robert Scoble--who once gained notoriety when he publicly complained that Facebook wouldn't allow his friends list to surpass 5,000 people--posted a blog entry that revealed he'd been booted from the site. Scoble, who initially just said that he'd been "working with a company to move my social graph to other places...(which) isn't allowable under Facebook's terms of service," later revealed that he'd been testing out an alpha feature for Plaxo and its relatively new Pulse social network. Scoble reported that Facebook sent him an e-mail along...

Number Portability Directions
2007-10-26 12:41:00 Mobile number portability has been introduced in the U.S. , the U.K., Australia, Korea, Japan, Canada, Pakistan and most countries in Europe. Introduction in India needs a push from the telecom department in terms of setting firm goals for the telcos. Telcos obviously are apprehensive about the move since they have to invest a lot all for opening the gates of churn. But they have to realize that number portability would make them more competitive and better organizations striving to meet the expectations of their subscribers and raise their levels.Since number portability has been on the table for quite some time now, I am sure telcos would have had devised their strategies for it. The telecom department can go ahead on this front boldly as the move is after all a long overdue benefit due to the consumers. One opportunity for the telecom department is to mandate number portability for all new 3G service rollouts. This can be a given for the telcos so they do not have to complain at ...

Complete .NET Portability with Wine & Mono?
2007-09-19 13:18:00 Mono is the open-source version of Microsoft’s .NET Framework. It implements most of the backend framework features, but unfortunately, falls flat on its pretty little face when attempting to display the user interface - which is what desktop apps are all about. Wine on the other-hand, is a Linux port of (major parts of) Microsoft’s Win32 library - the core dependencies of the Windows development libraries, and more importantly, the win32 interface elements. With Wine, you can run many traditional C++ win32 executables on Linux, with certain limitations. Mono’s biggest stumbling block is the GUI and .NET programs that use P/Invoke to call native non-managed win32 dlls - Mono is a pure .NET environment, and can’t handle them. But from the description above, that’s exactly what WINE excel at… So can’t we use WINE + Mono to make just about any .NET program run on Linux fresh out of the .NET compiler? Unfortunately, the answer is no. Back whe...
