  • Facebook’s daunting Asian challenge February 3, 2012
    Here's a piece I pulled together with the help of Reuters reporters Andjarsari Paramaditha, Camilo Mejia and Estelle Griepink in JAKARTA, Harichandan Arakali in BANGALORE, Lee Chyen Yee in HONG KONG, Kazunori Takada in SHANGHAI and Harry Suhartono in SINGAPORE.

  • The Tablet is the Computer January 24, 2012
    One thing discussed often and at great length in nerdy circles these days is this: Is the tablet—by which we really mean the Apple iPad, because it created the market, and presently accounts for nearly two thirds of it—a computer.

    Some folk have suggested that because Sony is behind the new version of the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo all the product placements are Vaio: This would be a slap in the face of the original novel and the Swedish version, which stuck pretty closely to the text. But I'm not sure. Here's another picture [...]
  • Inside the Web of Things December 21, 2011
    This is a slightly longer version of a piece I've recorded for the BBC World Service I've long dreamed of an Internet of things, where all the stuff in my life speaks to each other instead of me having to the talking.
