If you're looking for the future of news, a pretty good example of it is at UK startup silobreaker, which isn't a farm demolition service but a pretty cool news aggregation and visualization site. In other words, it lets you...

Demise of Contemplative Space Originally uploaded by Loose Wire. Now there are TVs on buses, in lifts, in waiting rooms, is there any room left for contemplation? In tandem with my earlier musings about the demise of downtime, we're seeing...

Maybe I'm missing something, of I've been taken in by those TV ads of guys walking across stepping stones made out of frogmens' skulls, but I expect the big couriers to be somewhat snappier and higher-tech these days. Not based...

Tony's Camera Originally uploaded by Loose Wire. How many people, I wonder, have had this experience: a nightmare with a smartphone and a return to trusty basics. My friend Tony has a BlackBerry, but this is his phone of choice,...

Reflecting On Yourself Originally uploaded by Loose Wire. Why are people so easily absorbed by their own reflection? Is it narcissism, or do we tend to face the transport that we await? Is it easier to look at ourselves than...

Was looking for a Singapore hotel this morning on Google Maps, which would seem to be a good place to start, and was perturbed to find it flagged in five different places, most of them several streets apart (above). These...

A lot of my time is spent writing for and talking to people for whom the computer remains a scary beast that is best kept at arm's length, or, better, in a closet. I feel for these people because I'm...

Here's a piece I wrote for the Bulletin of the World Health Organisation on how satellites and space technology are helping, and might help, in the case of big medical emergencies, from earthquakes to Ebola. It's a slightly different tack...

One guy I'm always inspired by is Jan Chipchase, who does more for Nokia's credibility than any of their products. Here he observes how small things are more likely to spread more rapidly than big ones, making them closer relations...

The discovery of three suitcases of negatives belonging to Robert Capa has raised hopes that, once and for all, the authenticity of his famous photograph of a falling Spanish Replubican soldier will be settled. Some believe the photo was staged...

When we talk about the future of newspapers, the future of education, the future of media, and the future of learning we tend to ignore the most important aspect. We tend to focus on information delivery and not on the...
