Normally I don't, I just unconditionally delete the damn thing. Today... well, I figured I'd look. Couldn't hurt, right? Only 10K messages, about 91M of crud, and it's not like there are words I've never seen in it. Unfortunately stuff in there did upset me.

(ENT2.0 mod RSS1.0) = 0.

Time for ENT 2.0?. It's very interesting to read Danny's toughts about ENT and RSS 1.0. Maybe it's time for a new release of the ENT specs, RSS 1.0 compatible. Oh... and what about Atom?
[Paolo Valdemarin: Paolo's Weblog]

I've certainly thought about things which, with the benefit of hindsight, I would have done differently.  I was never comfortable with having the topic name as the text content of the <topic> element and I've no idea why I did it, there are other bugbears in there too.

I'd also like to give more thought as to how ENT feeds can be supported by topic map resources in real applications.  At the moment we don't publish XTM or XFML maps out of K-Collector but we could (I used to publish XFML from liveTopics but those files got big!)

Lastly I would really like to make a push for ENT support in other applications.  It seems a shame to me that, more than a year on, no other applications seem to have picked up on the benefits topic based aggregation offer to users.
[Curiouser and curiouser!]

Right on to Paolo and Matt!

Here we go!

I highly endorse using ENT as a way of us all standardizing on attaching keywords to RSS feeds.  On both sides.

The Difference Between What You Want To

The Difference Between What You Want To
Happen And What's Happening 12/29/2003 01:44 PM
We've writt en about Magnatunes and the Creative Commons a few times before, so yet another article on Magnatunes and the Creative Commons isn't all that interesting. However, this one makes a very good point which is worth repeating. The article asks, if people can get their music for free, why would they bother paying for CDs. The response, which Magnatunes founder basically tells them, is that they're asking the wrong question. People are already downloading music for free, and thus, the recording industry needs to figure out a way to adjust to that reality. The original question (what happens if people can get their music for free?) is like asking "but, what happens to buggy makers when automobiles are around?" The answer seems obvious to everyone, except those involved in the recording industry: they adapt or die. The recording industry is so focused on what they want to happen, that they've missed what's actually happening. The article also suggests that, so far, Magnatunes is doing quite well, and has the potential to be a viable longterm business - based on the idea of giving away music as a promotional good.

I bet it'd be trivial for Apple to enable connections via Bluetooth (to your paired devices) to import photos.

When a content owner creates an audio or video stream, they can add script commands (such as URL script commands and custom script commands) to be encoded in the stream. When the stream is played back, the script commands can trigger events in an embedded player program, or they can open your browser and then navigate to a Web page. This behavior is by design

Dot Consolidation Is Back 04/19/2004 03:01 AM
In case you hadn't noticed, while the dot com IPO market looks to be heating up again, the busiest activity is actually over in the mergers and acquisitions area where internet companies are looking for consolidation opportunities before the prices of smaller companies get too out of hand again. Of course, there's no guarantee that acquiring companies will do much better than they've done in the past integrating a bunch of disparate companies into a single compelling entity, but people tend to ignore that in the heat of a merger opportunity.

Is Consolidation A Myth?

Is Consolidation A Myth? 12/23/2003 02:45 AM
Thought provoking piece over at Always-On suggesting that al l this fear about consolidation killing off competition is a big myth. While there are plenty of examples of companies buying up each other (and even areas where there are fewer companies within a specific space than before) consumers have more choice than ever before, leading to better products and lower prices. Sure, it may seem like there are big media conglomerates, but there are also plenty of independent websites that give people choice. Sure, there may be fewer small local banks, but there are plenty more banks that have expanded from other areas to serve a large population. Basically, what appears to be happening is that the regional companies are being eaten up, but there's plenty of competition on a global basis. Of course, there are still some exceptions (I'm still limited in my broadband connection choice, for instance), but these might be temporary monopolies, rather than a permanent state of affairs. I'm not sure it's completely true, but I do think some fears about consolidation everywhere are overblown.

In addition to the URL script command issues, this package addresses an issue with the installer that would cause 100% CPU utilization in certain scenarios.

More And More Credit Card Transactions

More And More Credit Card Transactions
Happen Online 08/06/2004 04:41 PM
Due to the growing interest in e-commerce, an increasing percentage of all credit card transactions now happen online. The article quotes someone pointing out that this is no surprise (it isn't... at all), but also saying: "It's convenient, secure and ideally suits the time-poor society we live in." You might want to question that middle part, however. Unfortunately, using credit cards online isn't always as secure as it should be, and with so many online transactions happening these days, it's about time that credit card companies start making disposa ble credit card numbers the standard online.
