Good morning. Another cold one. Wind-chill 15 below zero. ![]() Washington Post: "Fox doesn't think it's cheating to hire a ghostwriter to compose your personal ad." ![]() Some of you may be asking if we belong in space.. ![]() Michael Earl says Cambridge has spicy noodles. "I strongly recommend Mary Chung's Dun Dun Noodles (in Central Square, Cambridge) -- heavy noodles in a hot peanut-based sauce, shredded chicken optional. The Peking Ravoli and Suan La Chow Shao soup are also fabulous. It's a favorite of the MIT comp-sci culture, interestingly." ![]() Weird report on CNN about Colin Powell, Osama bin Laden, the people of Iraq, Al-Jazeera and the US Congress. ![]() Brent Simmons: "It’s times like this when I try very, very hard not to think of the classic DaveNet We Make Shitty Software. (With bugs!)" ![]() Ed Cone: "Howard Coble ignored a request for a meeting with three Congressmen of Asian descent, who were distressed over remarks Coble made last week endorsing the WWII internment of Japanese-Americans." ![]() On this day in 1999, My.Netscape rendering of Scripting News in XML. ![]() Russell Beattie: "There are literally tens of thousands of dead projects out there on Sourceforge." ![]() Please don't read further if you don't find teenage boy humor funny ![]() Acme License Maker is still up and running and making funny plates. ![]() Microsoft has filed a patent application for an "application program interface for network software platform." It'll be interesting to see when Microsoft claims to have invented this. We were creating APIs for a network software platform in the late 80s. We eventually worked with Microsoft on this stuff with the understanding that they had not filed any patents in this area. As I write this I'm sitting in a building filled with lawyers. ![]() John Robb: "I don't want my data on a PC anymore, I want it on a portable hard drive/server. Simplify my life. Make my life portable." ![]() Live blog this evening ![]() A reminder, tonight we're having a live session here at Harvard. It's not an intro to weblogs for newbies. I'm going to say that right up front. If you don't know what a weblog is, you can hang out, and maybe we'll get around to explaining what they are, and maybe we'll only talk about other stuff. I have a few ideas. But we never know what's going to happen at one of these until it's over. Tonight's session starts at 6:30PM, at Lewis International Law Center 301 on the law school campus, and will run between 1 and 2 hours. After we'll go out and get some food somewhere (cheap) in the Havard Square area. It's a good chance to meet other people in the weblog world in the Boston area. We'll probably do these sessions pretty regularly through 2003 as the blogging activity bootstraps at Harvard. |
