I had a few additional questions for the journalist: How long did he spend working in an office as a traditional journalist? What email web application does he use? Does he use any other web applications (Yahoo! notes, Writely, etc)? How about email lists? What is his preferred email list software? What other tools does he use to portray himself as a professional to new possible editors? Website? Cell phone? What else? It's a fascinating lifestyle and I wished, as I read the piece, that he'd focus a bit more on how he did it, rather than the food costs where he did it. This is fascinating.

They would all be other good examples of mobile computing. In Hong Kong and Singapore, wifi networks overlap each other and it is not uncommon to have a dozen or so show up, invariably one of them is free or often among the secure ones you will find the name of a local cafe where they will give you the password for a drink order. And of course there is Starbucks, wifi for days. In Bali (mostly south central Bali around Denpasar, Ubud and the Kuta beaches) you will find high speed interent cafes everywhere. I assumed this reflected the number of foreign travellers, but the majority of users are Indonesian. I brought a MacBook with me on an extended Asia/Australia trip thinking I would need it for something. And in retrospect, between Meebo for IM, Yahoo and Gmail for email and the handful of other internet services. Not sure I need the laptop, though I would be interested in a good digital locker service to store things like web pages with visa or travel information. Suggestions?

ESCAPE FROM YOUR CUBICLE! (an Internet poem!)

http://wmn.cs.ccu.edu.tw/furby/dan/Escape%20from%20your%20cubicle.htm

Escape from your cubicle!

by David Henry Newman

d_h_888 AT yahoo DOT com

Yes, escape from your cubicle

get out into the world

into the sunlight

the starlight

the summer breeze

escape from your cubicle

by bolting out the door

taking the elevator down to the ground floor

as quickly as possible

get out of there!

don’t wait for the closing bell

don’t wait for five o’clock to come around

get out of your cubicle right now

do the right thing

and escape into the freedom

that awaits you outside the door

no more sitting down doing nothing

no more boring meetings

no more slow-moving lunch breaks

no more boring commutes to work

get out of your cubicle right now

at the quickest possible moment

don’t miss your chance to be free

run, don’t walk

fly out that door!

make your escape at this very moment

– mid-sentence! — midbook!–

take this poem with you

as you run down the hall

happy as you’ll ever be

happy as you’ll ever be

is it a done deed?

Did you get out with your soul on fire?

Are you ready to do battle

with all the days of the rest of your life

when you can pursue the things

you always wanted to pursue

paint the pictures you always wanted to paint

visit those far-away places

you always wanted to visit

spend good times with the people

you love and admire

yes, if you’ve read this far,

try it!

right now!

escape from your cubicle

cut off all the ropes and strings

holding you back

and become one with the universe

free at last

free at last

Free from the confines of your confining cubicle

Now!

Escape from your cubicle

Forever … (or maybe just a day!)
