Steve Wozniak responds to a DaveNet piece, earlier this week. "Mail Starting 7/24/97". Apple's InternetWorld News Site, live from Chicago. We did the first one in LA in March. Interesting! What is Alexa? (Wired has a story.) Netscape and Marimba in a distribution deal. The InfoWorld and news.com stories miss an interesting angle. Netscape is now selling a server that's not based on an open standard. Early Netscape hype, in 1995 and 1996, said that the company and the software would be built on open standards. This Marc Andreessen column from Oct 96 was the only one I could find on the Netscape site that talked about open standards. Has there been a change in religion at Netscape? Not necessarily good or bad, but let's check it out. Why should you care? An example -- if you wanted to serve a channel from a database that Marimba doesn't support, you might be able to. The problem with the "Anyone But Microsoft" approach is that it excludes lots of other software developers too.
