Marshall McLuhan on the Medium Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man (1964) "the medium is the message…” The Medium is the Massage: An Inventory of Effects (1967) "the book is an extension of the eye… clothing, an extension of the skin… electric circuitry, an extension of the central nervous system”
The Medium is the Message Massage The Book is an extension of the eye – Cloud era The Book is an extension of the eye – Internet era I can order it online and have it delivered to my devices instantly I can order it online and have it delivered to my door in a day I can read on one device and “the cloud” knows whichever page I am As I read I can see popular highlights from other readers I can write the book as I tweet …
The Medium is the Message Massage “Clothing an extension of the skin” - Cloud “Clothing an extension of the skin” - Internet By deploying our infrastructure on Joyent, Gilt Groupe spends less than one percent of revenue on its total infrastructure investment. This is more than 70% better than the average company. I can order it online and have it delivered to my door in a day MIKE BRYZEK, Founder and CTOGILT Groupe
“The Internet” Is Not “The Cloud” The Victorian Internet by Tom Standage (1998) “In the Nineteenth Century there were no televisions, airplanes, computers, or spacecraft; nor were there antibiotics, credit cards, microwave ovens, compact discus, or mobile phones. There was, however, an Internet. During Queen Victoria’s reign, a new communications technology was developed that allowed people to communicate almost instantly across great distances, in effect shrinking the world faster and further than ever before.”
“The Internet” is the network for the cloud Two telephones can make only one connection Five can make 10 connections Twelve can make 66 connections. … N2

Moore’s Law and Ones Like It Moore’s law states that the number of transistors on a chip will double about every two years. Intel has kept that pace for over 40 years, providing more functions on a chip at significantly lower cost per function. Physical limits of atomic structures or power density could be reached by 2020.. 1965 , , , , 2020 … ftp://download.intel.com/museum/Moores_Law/Printed_Materials/Moores_Law_2pg.pdf
What used to be the computer is now the mobile device 1984 Apple, the computer company 2010 Apple, the mobile device company
Devices Overtake PCs in 2011 Smartphones and Tablets pass Desktops and Notebooks in 2011.
What used to be TV is now Mobile “Beachfront” Verizon won the most prized spectrum in the 2008 auction: the Upper 700 MHz C block. This particular slice of spectrum is valuable for two reasons: geography and bandwidth. Verizon Wireless’ deployment of LTE in the beachfront 700 MHz spectrum provides coverage and in-building penetration advantages over existing 3G technologies (and other 4G competitive implementations).
What used to be server is now data center “Joyent’s Jason Hoffman likes to talk about the data center being the new box. The analogy goes that, with more organizations hosting applications in the cloud and data volumes skyrocketing, the cloud data center takes the place of the on-premise server. And if the data center is the server, the cloud computing management software, atop which applications run, must be the new operating system. Much like there was Wintel (Windows-Intel) in the client-server world, Hoffman thinks there can be Joytel (Joyent-Intel) in the cloud world. I think he’s onto something.” http://gigaom.com/cloud/at-cloud-scale-data-centers-are-the-new-servers/ November 2010

Socializing: LinkedIn With over a billion page views per month bumper sticker from LinkedIn is one of the largest Ruby applications on the web. It runs on SmartMachines in the Joyent Public Cloud. One engineer, one week, and a few Joyent SmartMachines later and bumper sticker was born. The bet was we’d get to a million users in 45 days, we got there in 46.

Why does Apple build its own Chips? In the cellphone world, a chip is a chip. Most of them are ARM-based but there are a few outliers. Most importantly, however, each has a similar power profile. Therefore, by controlling the entire chip themselves, Apple can handle its own graphics, video, and audio output as well optimize for power control – a huge concern with devices like the iPhone.
