Detailing my “Smart Aging” through the IoT vision
The best-laid plans get canceled due to Summer vacation…
I was supposed to speak to seniors (and those who love or care for them!) today in my dear little burg, Medfield, MA, about my “Smart Aging” through the IoT vision. However, the talk has been postponed til September due to the small number of sign-ups. Oh […]
Apple’s HomeKit: will it hasten widespread smart home adoption?
Been too busy to comment until now on Apple’s HomeKit platform, announced last week at its WWDC event.
(PROMINENT DISCLAIMER! Having to send huge amounts of money to Loyola of Maryland for the next three years [I feel like I’m in the Weimar Republic and must carry tons of money to Baltimore in a wheelbarrow, LOL] to […]

It seems to me that airports, with such a high percentage of sophisticated users with advanced mobile devices combined with complex logistics, […]

I’ve been delinquent about posting my take on Cisco’s recent release of a white paper in which they predicted a $14.4 trillion in what they term “Value at Stake,” (a combination of increased revenues and decreased costs for companies embracing [or lost by companies that don’t embrace it) what they call the “Internet of Everything” […]
Open data more valuable than big data for small & medium biz
Here’s something counterintuitive given all the hoopla about big data: Gartner reports that open data may be more valuable for small and medium-sized businesses than big data is.
The article points out that there are a variety of techniques, especially APIs, that may allow easy sharing of data among employees, supply-chain partners, and customers.
It’s all about […]
Will some smart home device makers ever grow souls??
(Please cut me a little slack on this post, dripping with sarcasm: these latest examples of some smart home device makers’ contempt/obliviousness toward customers’ privacy and security shoved me over the edge!).
Once upon a time two smart boys in their dorm room thought up a new service that really made a new technology hum. When […]
