Steve Hoffman points to Medscape RSS feeds.  Lessig's Dr Pangloss: "Why do you worry about media concentration when there’s an Internet?” Pangloss was Candide's teacher in Voltaire's novel. Karlin Lillington considers the possibility that the rescue of Jessica Lynch was staged by US soldiers.  Doc argues that Google is already deeper and better defended than Netscape. They have to be, Doc, because they're not going to get the kind of cash-flow-through-IPO that Netscape had. And Microsoft isn't going to swarm Google from the center, they're going to attack from the desktop. The vehicle will be Longhorn, the next version of Windows -- which has a local-global search engine built in. The advantage that Google has over Netscape, Doc and I agree here, is the example of Netscape getting crushed by Microsoft, even though they felt invulnerable. Netscape may not have had a good-enough warning. Google has no excuse for missing it. A little over a year ago I wrote a walkthrough for publish-subscribe in Web content. Ed Cone speaks about the NY Times hand-wringing. Yes ma'am, today is Thursday and that means we're on at the Berkman Blogatorium, 7PM, followed by Dutch dinner. Tonight we're going to look at macros, client-side tools, surveys, BloggerCon and if Murphy is willing, a neat new feature I'm working on today. I like to do new Manila stuff on Thursdays, knowing I'll get to demo them on Thursday night. Justin Hall's notes from Wired's third birthday party. Halceon days. Boy I was skinny. No gray in the beard either. I forget where I read this, but whoever said it really nailed it. Trackback isn't what I want. I want it in the other direction. I want to know which of my outbound links were the most popular. Yes yes, we know how to do it. Jeremy Zawodny on executive pay. Great comments on last night's RFC.  File this under rules for tech mail lists: "Most of the people you want to influence aren't on the mail list and quite possibly wouldn't understand what you're saying. There's an understandable illusion that we're at the center of the universe and everyone's waiting to hear the word that comes down from the top of the mountain. Nothing could be further from the truth." |
