Here's the big word that begins with "U" for this week: "Ubiquitous". Something that's ubiquitous is omnipresent, everywhere at the same time. Pretty intense idea, huh? Also something that doesn't exist. This is one of those words invented to describe religious concepts that have never been witnessed. The obvious example is God. God is supposed to be ubiquitous: everywhere at once, looking in and keeping track of everything and listening to 5 billion prayers all at the same time. God pretty much has to be ubiquitous to have all those qualities that people say he does. I mean, God just wouldn't be God if he needed a beeper, or call-waiting, would he?
You may have noticed the internet has begun to reach God-like proportions. Well, there are some who would have that become literally true. They want to create what they call the ubiquitous internet.
To me, this seems like the ultimate in marketing hype. Capitalists have always wanted to convince people that their product is everywhere, that everyone is doing it. But what if that were true?
Here's what is being planned for the internet - it's just in the research phase at this point, but you know how fast the computer industry moves these days. They want to put the internet into everything. It'll be in your car, helping you find out where you are and giving you information about wherever that is. The internet will be in your house, turning lights on and off for you, operating all of your appliances. There won't be any separate TV or computer anymore. It'll be all around you, with displays in every room. The internet will also be there in this way at your place of work. You won't need to sign in anymore, because the building itself will be able to sense when you enter and when you leave. The internet will even be on or in your body in the form of a medical implant or a badge that communicates with whatever internet sensors are nearby.
Wow. Isn't technology wonderful? It really is impressive that they're soon going to be able to do this kind of stuff. I won't deny that the ubiquitous internet could do some really remarkable things.
The question that remains unanswered is why the ubiquitous internet is needed. Do we really need to have a connection to some international communications network to turn on a lamp in our living room, to heat a cup of coffee in a microwave, or play music on a stereo? What's the advantage? Maybe we're developing this ubiquitous internet simply because it's possible. We can have it, so we make it.
I suspect that there's more to this idea than just a love of high technology, though. I see the ubiquitous internet as the logical end of a long-standing pattern of increasingly intrusive market research. In the old days, companies got information about consumer behavior by conducting formal studies with paid respondents. Quite a bit of this sort of research still goes on, but it has been supplemented with electronic information gathering.
Credit cards are useful to market researchers because they leave a trail of transactions recorded by computer that can be studied for patterns in consumptive behavior. This information isn't just interesting. It's valuable. A credit card company can sell this information about your buying habits to marketing firms, who then send out junk mail to you without you having to ask for it. What a convenience.
This system has grown into a tighter net as the power of computers to gather and organize information has grown. Banks are now planning for the near total replacement of untrackable paper currency with electronic money cards. Soon you may not be able to make a single purchase without it going on your permanent record.
The internet is just the latest tool for secretive information gathering about your life. In many respects it already is ubiquitous. Through the use of little programs that they call "cookies", web masters can track all of your activity on the internet. In some cases, even the contents of your hard drive can be read. This is the equivalent of a company being able to look through your personal files.
The scary thing is that all of this intrusion is done without your knowledge, much less your permission. Haven't you noticed how some commercial web pages take an especially long time to load? That's because the web page is busy putting its cookie programs onto your hard drive and downloading the cookies already left by other by other web pages that you've visited.
Microsoft is one of the worst cookie cutters out there on the internet. On practically every page they have some sort of program gathering information about you. This is why it's so dangerous to have Microsoft as a virtual monopoly in both the operating system and web browser markets. With no competitors, nothing could stand in the way of Bill Gates in his drive for the power to find out about everything that you do. With the onset of the ubiquitous internet, nothing would be off-limits to the Microsoft spies. Every minute of the day Microsoft would know where you are and what you are doing.
So what do you have to fear? You never do anything wrong, do you? You never make any mistakes or do anything you don't want someone to know about, right? Do the virtuous really need privacy anyway? What have you got to hide?
Well, it doesn't matter what you have to hide. The fact is that you have the right to hide anything that you want to, so long as it isn't directly related to criminal behavior. This principle is in the Constitution. We are supposed to be protected from unreasonable search and seizure, remember?
Watch out, because that protection is being eroded, bit by bit, with every electronic transaction being made, with every new connection of the internet to our every day lives.
Not to worry, says Bill Gates. The development of the ubiquitous internet is a service being done for our convenience.
The idea that there should be a limit to convenience amounts to heresy in today's world of compulsive consumption. It's a shame that the internet has become a tool for electronic spies, because it also can be a powerful tool for individual expression. Nevertheless, when the time comes for me to make the choice between a convenient Big Brother watching over me and an inconvenient seclusion, I know what my decision will be.
Insight
Basically, this article mentions more about the disadvantages of ubiquitous internet which include exposure of privacy information, unnecessary of certain products and hackers. In my opinion, the growth of internet is equal to the importance of internet. The advance in internet technology will cause the internet become part of us. In the end, every human being needs to get himself connects to the internet and half of the daily activities will be on the net. Is this a good thing or bad?

I suggest you add your own thoughts, insights and reflections into the posts, not just paste the article.
Like the forums, your posts should feature ORIGINAL CONTENT.
You also need to ask questions and LEAD discussions. For instance, what do you want your classmates to comment upon?
Nice articles, by the way, but I think you casn make the posts better.
The growth of ubiquitous internet is a continuing act by the human being in this world. Things that are written and published online will be there forever. Just imagine that million upon billion pieces of information will be stored for a long time. For example, http://www.archive.org/index.php is the website that can go back to check the achievement of other websites that created at the beginning of their initial stage. Besides, all the video, movie and audio also can be viewed as well.
With the ubiquitous internet that everyone can online everywhere they are, security and privacy concerns concern with the e-business regulatory was getting common from time to time. Users hard to track the website that might send scam emails, advertising fraud and unethical or illegal issues that also created by other human.
Ubiquitous internet brings a growth to our society but it also causing some unwanted issues to us.
Firstly, bulk unsolicited email. Bulk email campaigns can easily hurt one’s company brand reputation. For example, a company trying to launching the new product by using opt-in paid email that promise of 2 million emails will be sent to the target potential customers. Wow! That’s really sound so good as peoples from everywhere can get to know the products in one click. Butttttt, do you like to receive unsolicited emails? Do you like it? For me, I don’t even take a look or read on it for those emails. It is so annoying and wasting my time. I will just delete it or close it if I accidentally open it. Do you guys doing the same thing as me? IMC (internet mail consortium) has showed their sincere help in solving the unsolicited bulk email (also known as spam mail). Please refer to the link http://www.imc.org/imc-spam/.
The second issues will be copyright infringement. Internet is providing a very quick and convenient way for publics to do their research, so that they can get more information. But there are a large number of peoples who are taking this advantage on doing ‘copy and paste’. They steal other people’s opinion and make it as their own work. It can found on many university students and professionals who are considered as a theft that steal other people’s work. This act also known as plagiarism. According to the compact edition of the oxford English dictionary, plagiarism is the action of plagiarizing, the wrongful appropriation and publication as one’s own of ideas.
The growth of the ubiquitous internet brought an bad impact to our society as we need to find a way solve those issues instead on keep concentrating on make a huge growth on ubiquitous internet. Like what kang Loong mentioned above, ‘all the instruction is done without your knowledge, much less your permission’, are you going to let those issues interrupt you all the times? Think it carefully…

According to Weiser (1996) , ‘the internet revolution has barely started. It won’t be done until everything is on the Web. Light switches, pagers, copiers, printers, as well as PCs, benefit from the Web connections.’
Basically, the concept of ubiquitous computing is not only focusing on the usage of Internet but also a study of how people use there daily tools and where the future of computing might lie. The goal of ubiquitous internet computing is to move away computers from the central focus of users’ attention and into the ‘invisible world’ that users used subconsciously, to enhance existing tools/communication.
Therefore, what I understand is that, having a ubiquitous Internet, it could control merely everything that one does so that again, to find convenience to us humans. It sounds good that when the internet is in our house i.e. turns light on/off for us, like mention by Mr. Rodney if we were organizing a party but we’re running late, therefore let the internet in our house do the job by preparing all the things for the party. (My classmate and I were thinking, rather than letting the internet doing the job, why don’t just make a call and say the party is post pone a little late: P)
Anyway, what if the ubiquitous internet gets haywire?? It does sound scary to me as we got trap because of the technology. Somehow, Japan has already creating it because of its great speeds and availability Japan broadband users are able to obtain; web conferencing and VoIP calls have become the norm.
To summarize, ubiquitous computing is the wave of the future. By having microprocessor in most of our appliances and office equipments, these devices in future will be ‘intelligent’ and be able to ‘communicate’ to each other. The user interfaces will develop to the point that the devices/tools are calming, because they will enhance our lives, make information easier to access, digest and understand, and improve our quality of life.

The Internet is not just in front of the desktop, it is around us anywhere and at any time. With handheld devices, people can now do many things and control without have to do it with their physical appearance.
Business owners can benefit from this Ubiquitous Internet which they can use it to improve their business operation for better services to the customers. Restaurant is a business requiring well management strategies for it to be successful. A long customer wait time, wrong order, and cold food are obstacle that are disadvantaged to a restaurant business. However, by using the emerging technology, companies can reduce the unwanted service flaw. Royal Mile Pub, a restaurant with a bar carrying wide selection of beverage, has improved customer satisfaction with using iPaq PDAs in order-taking that connect to kitchen using wireless networking. Most of the menu items are visible on the PDA and it only requires one or two keystrokes for taking drink or food orders. The waiters/waitresses then glances at the screens to verify that the corrected item has appeared and they are able to tell immediately when menu items are unavailable. The Wi-Fi system within the restaurant transmits the orders and appear immediately on screens in the bar and kitchen enabling kitchen to prepare the food more quickly and also make it possible for waiters/waitresses to serve immediately another customers after the previous order takings. The wireless transmission system enables the waiters/waitresses to serve more customers without much delay and so able to create customer satisfaction. The order system has less error in the process and it is so used to total each bill too. The system is also integrated with inventory database allows kitchen manager to track raw material purchases against the orders and identify waste or other delivery and processing problems. The adoption of the new system helps to reduce the food serving people to three and the data-entry station on the servicing floor for processing credit card charges to one (Turban et al., 2005).
Some countries have developed digital city for their residents and visitors to engage in online services anywhere and at anytime, such as Kyoto in Japan. People are able to get any information wherever and whenever they are through integration of the Web archives and real-time sensory data. It can track the location a person is through GPS. People can get taxi service faster by arranging the taxi that locates nearest to the passenger place. People can also check when the next bus will come through their handheld device. Visitors are able to get digital tour guide in the digital city and they will be recommended tourist sites based on their current locations and preferences (Turban et al., 2005). A widely information and location-aware environment create a number of business opportunities to stores and companies. Store owners and companies can promote their business by notifying people who locate closer to them and enabling them to get detail information about the business via their handheld devices if the people would like to know more about it. In some case, when the stores have the customer information in their record, they will be able to send them a target messages which will attract them to visit and make purchases from the stores.
Ubiquitous Internet enables you to reach everything you want but at the same time anything can also reach you. People are able to get in touch with you anywhere and at anytime. Because you can do anything anywhere and at anytime now with your wireless handheld devices, you may be asked by someone (employers, managers, friends, family members) to do things for them immediately. This means you have to prepare to do work anywhere and at anytime and this causes a lot of pressure in today world. As the system can track you, this mean you may expose to a lot of messages that come to you. For example, when you are near to your bank or a supermarket that you are a member of it, you will get a lot of promotion messages from these businesses in just few minutes. Sometimes, even stores and companies that you have never visited will send you messages providing you with some information regarding the stores and companies themselves. Within a Ubiquitous Internet environment, you yourself will be exposed to this open environment. Your information will be got by someone that tracked on you. One day, maybe when you walk past a shop, your handheld device which acts as your ID tool stored with all you personal information will be scanned by the shop scan reader. And the information they get from you will be used without your knowledge. Some parties may argue that they try to get information unhide from you for a place to produce better products and services that best suited to your needs and preferences. However, is this the fact? Not really. An insurance company will recommend you to buy a life insurance as they find out that you need it, but the fact at the back is that they charge higher premium when they find out you have bad habit in your life. So, are they utilizing the information for our own personal benefits or actually for their own business profit purposes? I think that the answer is already there.
Nevertheless, I personally think that Ubiquitous Internet can be useful in the university. As many students have expressed that they are fear of lost in the campus new building, it is available to have a location guide through using Ubiquitous Internet technology. In addition, we can also check for availability for facilities and materials from the place we currently locate and enable us to go directly to the place with things we want, for example, we can directly go to place where there is a space for us to use the computer.

I would like to add something extra to Annie Lee's comment.
Ubiquitous internet brings convenience by connecting devices through wireless. The example of Royal Mile Pub that uses PDAs to take order really changes the business structure of a restaurant and improves its performance. Many organizations have start implementing these technologies and innovations in their business formation. However, the organization needs to beware of several risks which include return of the investment and laziness of the employees.
Your location guide in campus is interesting. If we can use any mobile devices to verify every location in campus, I think the lecturer will desire a device to track his students. Ha ha.
We understand that the ubiquitous internet is accessible to all individuals as long as the embedded devices are wirelessly networked. The devices consist of mobile phones, laptops and also appliances which have the capability to connect the internet. However, we have to know that not all individuals living in this world have owned those costly devices and appliances. Thus, it could create a substantial gap for the standard of living between those who have internet connection and those who do not have.
Due to some constraints like the development of country or geographical limitation, there will be a large number of individuals may not be able to access the internet. To be achieving in a truly ubiquitous internet, we have to ensure that every places or at least most of the areas throughout the world can access to internet easily.
According to ITU (2007), mobile communications have significant impact on developing countries such as Namibia, Ethiopia and Zambia. There are lots of individuals who have no access to phone services but they show their willingness to pay for them. Besides, they are also willing to spend part of their income on ICT to help improve their social and economic welfare. As mobile phone is also one of the devices that allow the individuals to access the internet, it will be beneficial to the growth of country and enables the citizens to interact with people globally.
I believe that we are moving from science fiction towards science fact with ubiquitous internet as stated in ITU article (2007). The idea is also supported by Gates (2006) but he has made a link in robotics perspective. The article has indicated that “in South Korea the Ministry of Information and Communication hopes to put a robot in every home there by 2013. The Japanese Robot Association predicts that by 2025, the personal robot industry will be worth more than $50 billion a year worldwide, compared with about $5 billion today”.
It means that robots will become a new trend of innovation and there will have high demand in the coming years. For instance, the robotic devices can be an aid for disabilities individuals, the robots can also help in medical and construction fields as well as used to accompany elderly people. Therefore, robots are vital for companies and also individuals who need them to complete their tasks in an effective manner.

As a technology, Internet is made to make life easier too. Think about it as not a powerful or can do almost anything. Imagine back in centuries ago where there is no electric and how it is implemented in the whole world. People might think the same way we think about internet and all possibilities that could be done with electric. In my opinion, technology is not made because simply just it can. It could be but, people will not develop something that just because they can. Will you buy a cell phone that will explode if it detected you saying bad word? It can, but people will not create it. I agree that it is a product. It is created based on human need and ready to be released to the world. Whether it is successful or not, it depend on how it is marketed.
Internet is about communications. Inside Internet, there is huge amount of information going here and there. We know how important the information is. Information means power. If somebody owns all the information in the world, he can conquer the world. Comparing the western countries and Asian, western countries people tend to avoid a political party that collect their information in deep. It is because people there know how important it is. But it is different in Asia. The government usually collect any information about their people. From the name, phone number, until the details like blood type and so on. That is why we are controlled by government more than the western countries people. How information could control? In social life, a relationship between two people let say friends is measured with how much information you are willing to let go. The more your friends know about you, the closer you two are. Now, imagine if it is between boss and worker. The boss knows a lot about the worker in detail. And of course the worker does not know much. Boss knows that this worker is good and his effort in company is needed. Base on the information, the boss could make a situation where the boss seems to understand his workers and the workers loyalty towards the company will increase even though maybe the boss does not really care. This is just an illustration of how information could control. So, imagine all that information is travelling all around the world and being collected by somebody who want all the information and knowledge in internet like Google Company. Could they control the world? Is it good to implement internet in the whole part of our life so you can control them conveniently? People might have their own thoughts for this. This is what I think and that is why Internet is powerful.
Thank you
Hello, I would like to talk about reasons how the ubiquitous internet has affected our society.
Users access the Internet via dial-up internet access to wireless device access, from laptop to mobile phone; the Internet technology is rapidly innovating and improving in the value of use in the Internet. YouTube, Msn messenger, banks, stock watch and so on are always been bring up in our life. This shows we are increasingly relying on the Internet for business and social activities.
Innovative technology has the potential to meet our needs, for example, helping healthy systems improve quality and accessibility while becoming more cost-effective. Moreover, it helps makers address issues such as medical errors.
This makes the future of the Internet more critical, for example, the implication for social activities have become more far reaching and profound than many imagined possible. Our expectation of the Internet and what it can deliver are higher than ever and are likely to keep on growing.
Business-to-business Internet ecommerce applications are rapidly moving into the wireless-based marketplace. The innovative infrastructure technology plays a major role in from ecommerce move into mcommerce. For example, the technology offers users the assurance of secure wireless commerce. Therefore, the telecommunications companies need to look for building an infrastructure for secure electronic applications.
Another issue is that the network architecture will reach of its capacity. For example, more and more users upload videos that cause traffic and slow; therefore, the upgrading and innovating advanced technology is needed.

I found this article to be very interesting. Where others are just busy reporting about the latest technology, this article offered what the authors feel and think of, being as human. The big word in this article, as it is already highlighted, is UBIQUITOUS. The author use God as an example to explain this word, which I found is very appropriate, but Internet as an example?
No doubt over the years, internet has very much developed and still developing. The future with internet being UBIQUITOUS is really not that far away. Having internet is very convenience indeed. But, as I don’t really feel the impact of internet, I still don’t quite get sort of “addicted” to internet. But, let’s imagined I am in a very developed country with internet being near UBIQUITOUS. Wow, actually, it sounds really good. I always like the thought of having internet over the hand phone, making video calls instead of phone calls, can read or write on the internet, watch TV and etc. life will be less boring! But my imagination doesn’t include cars, houses, buildings or others.
Have you ever watched a TV series named “Eureka”? I saw a described house above inside the show. A house having its own mind. The house is even capable of controlling the electronic appliances inside. It actually very good to live inside such a house, considering that we are exhausted from work, and when we reached home, the house is in the way exactly we want it. The same could happen with buildings and cars or others. But then, a question comes up as highlighted above. Do we really need it?
Well, for me, all the development with the houses, cars, buildings sounds very promising. It is very convenient and high-technology. Maybe I just like it since it will reduce my work-load. And I can focus more in other issues. But, as all these is created to satisfy user’s need, it have to be personalized, and to be personalized, the technology provider need to collect as much information as possible. And the answer is yes, our privacy is being threatened.
Personally, I hate getting “cookies”. I hate going through commercial website to satisfy my need of looking at new products, and without I knowing it, all the products I’ve clicked has been memorized and captured. And I do really think those website did sell out my information to others as I received more and more junk mail. But, then again, we are only talking about our e-mail being threatened by that junk mail, now, consider about our life, I mean, whole personal information about you, being known by the whole world!
There is completely nothing wrong about being discreet of our personal life, everyone need to have their own space. Look at the celebrity having all their personal life written in tabloids, if I were them, I’ll go crazy!
Well, I know that there is a craze for “facebook” nowadays. Most people have at least 1 account of this social network. But, recently, I read an article in Readers’ Digest, and frankly, I was very much shocked. The article mentioned that, nowadays, according to Ponemon Instiitute, “61% companies are running online background checks of prospective hires, and 43% of those potential bosses nixed candidates based on what they found out about them.” (Simmons 2008) So, please people, do think twice before posting any offensive picture. As another article quoted, “Unlike a note passed in class, which can be torn in a million little pieces, an Internet posting may not be so easily destroyed.” (Privacy Rights 2008)
Conclusion, in my opinion, I do enjoy all those conveniences that internet has provide us, and having an UBIQUITOUS internet idea doesn’t sound that bad. But having my life posted in internet is not that good! Perhaps someone can found a way to solve this, so everyone can enjoy internet at ease and not having to worry about our own privacy life being threatened.

"Every human being need to get himself connects to the internet and half of the daily activities will be on the net. Is this a good thing or bad?”
Well we cannot basically say that it’s a bad thing. It has its advantages and its disadvantages too. However, I do feel that the idea of the ubiquitous internet is somehow beyond my acceptance and also many others especially the old folks. Having the internet in your house, your car, switching on your lights and operating home appliances sounds far too complicated and also a little “crazy” and unrealistic to me :D. I also think that if the day comes where all this is happening in reality, people will become lazier and dependant on the internet. What happens if one day the internet goes off or is down? They will not know how to operate a home applicant. Also, how bout the elderly? Many I guess would be computer illiterates and they will be facing lots of problems in trying to adjust to all this technology changes and also figuring out how to operate those things.
Well, that’s just a little of my sharing on my thoughts and insights on the ubiquitous internet. We now come to the main point of my comment. I would like to share with everyone a new product innovation of Google which is ‘Google Chrome’. Google Chrome (BETA) for Windows is a “browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier” (Google, 2008). Google Chrome was launched because it is believed to add value for users and, at the same time, help drive innovation on the web.
As mentioned by Kang Loong, Microsoft has become a huge threat to internet users. It has basically monopolized the OS and web browser markets and is one of the worst cookie cutters out there on the internet. They have already intruded out privacy and we have to do something about it. A one solution that can be done would be to boycott using Internet Explorer and opt for other web browsers out there such as the new Google Chrome.
One of Chrome’s features is its private browsing feature called “Incognito” mode which prevents the browser from storing any history information or cookies from the website visited throught the “Incognito” window. It’s a read-only.
As for security factors, users can be certain that they are protected from malwares and phishing issues. Mandeep Khera, Cenzic Chief Marketing Officer told InternetNews.com, "With Chrome, Google has certainly made a concerted effort to keep security in mind and in some cases, it should have better security especially for anti-malware and anti-phishing types of issues".
If you are interested to know more on Google Chrome, you may take a look at the comic book (http://www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/index.html) which introduces and explains on Google Chrome or if you wish to download Google Chrome you can download it here at http://www.google.com/chrome .

Just a little note here: The term ubiquitous Internet refers to an Internet that is EVERYWHERE. Basically making access to the Internet to be very easy and instantaneous.
Just want to make sure this is clear, looking at some of the replies.
