"Ginger" inventor appears at Davos, stays mum

"Ginger" inventor appears at Davos, stays mum DAVOS, Switzerland, Jan 30 (Reuters) - You just can't keep a good idea like "Ginger" down. Even if no one is quite sure what the idea in question is. Not hordes of instant Internet fans bent on finding out. Not media pundits so ready to comment on the purportedly revolutionary technology. And, apparently, not even the inventor himself. ``Ginger'' is said to be the code name of an invention under development by U.S. inventor Dean Kamen. The technology, also referred to as ``IT,'' is thought to be some sort of personal hovercraft or radical new transportation device. ``I'm working on ten different projects,'' Kamen said. ``I don't even know which one they were talking about,'' he told Reuters when asked about the armchair speculation that has swept up everyone from computer industry leaders to news anchors to the neighbor next door. Kamen declined to comment further on his work, saying he was bound by a confidentiality agreement. Kamen was at the World Economic Business Forum in Davos, appearing in public for the first time since speculation about the invention began spreading over the Internet and into broadcast and print media. Word leaked out two weeks ago in a report on a book proposal presented to Harvard Business School Press about Kamen's secretive project. Computer industry leaders such as Apple founder Steve Jobs and top venture capitalist John Doerr were said to back the project. But no one who knows anything is saying, leaving anyone who doesn't know to wonder. Popular fascination with the endless possibilities has inspired a variety of Web sites devoted to discovering the inventor's secret, including GingerPoll (http://www.gingerpoll.com) the IT question (http://theITquestion.com) and links to various patent applications filed by Kamen. Kamen joined a panel with Michael Dell, founder and chairman of Dell Computer Corp., to discuss ``Completing the Technology Revolution.'' During the panel discussion, Kamen again declined to comment on his work. Other technology industry leaders appearing at the six-day meeting of global poltical and economic leaders were happy to join the high-tech world's latest parlor game and indulge their own guesses at what Kamen's mystery project might be about. ``I don't know what IT is. I think it stands for Individual Transporter, a scooter of some sort,'' said Michael Dertouzos, director of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Lab for Computer Science. Bill Joy, chief scientist at Sun Microsystems Inc. (NasdaqNM:SUNW - news) guessed it was a low- or zero-smog emission vehicle, built from carbon fiber and containing fuel cells as an energy generator. The mystery continue

Re: Recommendations for Cypherpunks Books

>>Can you distinguish a "cypherpunk" genre from a "cyberpunk" genre, and is >>it a worthwhile distinction, and what are the features ? > >Yes, it is worthwhile. Good luck finding anything that is remotely >acceptable. Perhaps I can offer a starting point: First tier (works that are specifically focused on cryptographic technologies): (1) - books on future worlds and spaces: in particular, those that explore social, moral, political, technical, ethical issues (to be science fiction), or those that merely explore worlds (to be fantasy) (2) - books on cryptography theory and systems: from the basic theory (cryptography primitives), to the high level systems (public key infrastructure). (3) - books on privacy, ethics and social questions: defining good and bad cryptography in the various contexts (low level technical, high level social), including politics (trade barriers). Second tier (works that are more general and not specifically focused on cryptographic technologies): - second tier to (1) - general science fiction and fantasy exploration of future worlds involving technology or otherwise, but not primarily focused on cryptography (technical, social or ethnographical) - second tier to (2) - general mathematics, communications and computing, such as number theory, quantum computing, dna computing, internetworking systems, identity management. - second tier to (3) - general computing and technology issues of privacy, ethics, sociology, ethology. What I would enjoy reading: - books on cryptoterrorism and cryptoliberation, where a major part of the plot revolves around the use of cryptography technologies in terrorism or liberation. - books on cryptocommunities, where a major part of the plot revolves around people that are "cryptoheads" and for which cryptography and technology is a major part of their lifestyle (people who somewhat live, breathe and eat cryptography). _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
