07/25/2004 02:12 AMI finally got to meet Om Malik
in person. The fact that I never ran into him in the 90's says
allot about me "taking the 90's off." Quite frankly I just
didn't care.
But now I do!
Great to meet Om!
Here's his recent post...
It is a cold, cloudy drank Saturday afternoon in San Francisco. Go
ahead and summer in San Francisco. I am migh
ty pissed off at the hooligans who started a
fight, got our hottest hitter thrown out of the game and basically
used all underhanded tactics to win when all athletic prowess failed.
(I think they are not even going to make it as the wild cards - go
Athletics!)
Nevertheless, watching the game also gave me some time to ponder
over the last week which involved nearly six conference calls, ten
interviews, one story, one online column, and one conference, BlogOn. So here are some
conclusions from that one conference, and other conversations.
[Om
Malik]
Om is right.
BlogOn was acomplete corporate sellout and a complete bore. The
only thing going on was out in the hallways. All the old Apple guys
are back, AOL, CNN and Yahoo were on stage saying nothing and they
even put abunch of irrelevant PR flacks on stage.
Oh boy.
Next week's OSCON will be exactly the opposire. ONLY OpenSource
folks - no old PR flacks or big irrelevant companies. Sorry I can't
be there.

Random Freezing
Random Freezing
04/12/2004 06:05 PMIs there no worse problem in all of computer-dom than random
locking? You know, when the computer just freezes — hard-drive
light goes out, mouse stops moving, keyboard is unresponsive, etc.
The screen is just frozen in time.
Talk about frustration. There's no error message to Google, no log
file to review, no rhyme or reason to how or when it happens. It just
happens.
How many geeks at help desks around the world shudder at the words,
"It just locks up for no reason." You hope that "locks up" means it's
just slow or the hard drive cycles for a while. But, with a sinking
heart, you realize that "locks up" means just that.
There's no...crack in the bug into which you can dug your fingers
to pry out a solution. The bug is as solid and impenetrable as a
solid hunk of aluminum. It's like trying to attack a Borg cube.
So, what do you do? You start looking for change you just made.
Well, I just reloaded an OS from scratch, so that's no real help. You
start reloading drivers. You know it can't be a hardware
incompatibility because it worked fine before with the same hardware.
You run Windows Update, you tweak BIOS, etc.
Still locks. What do you do? Do you start replacing parts? But
what a money hole that can be. Taking an educated guess, these things
happen a lot with bad video cards. But what if you buy one and that's
not it? Do you just keep replacing parts until you find the one that
makes it go away?
I have another machine to which this problem happened about 18
months ago. All the debugging I had to offer was no use. It still
sits there, with a ghost in the machine that renders it useless for
about anything. It's just waiting to be parted out since the sum of
the parts contains a phantom bent on destroying the whole.
Random freezing is the single worst desktop computer problem in the
world. Vent over. Thanks.

noticed with some amusement and glee on Monday that the Wall Street
Journal published a list of the fastest-growing employment sectors in
the latest jobs report, and what was at the head? "Internet content
producer"! OK, it's not 1999 all over again, and thank goodness for
that; the actual number of new jobs in the field (2000) was small. But
hey -- after what this business has been through, any good news is
good news.
I
haven't gotten it together to spend the money on one of those
PC-to-stereo bridges that lets you stream music from your computer to
your home audio systems, but when I do, I'll look first and most
closely at the Slim Devices
Squeezebox -- not
only because it looks like a good product, but because the company
that makes it lets anyone play with the open-source software that runs
it:
Slimserver.
I've been having fun with Slimserver: You install it on the computer
that has your music library and you can then access your library from
any remote computer with a decent Internet connection. Requires a
little effort to get the hang of it, then seems to work like a charm.
A browser interface lets you control what's playing. Very cool.
I've turned on "item level titles and links" in Radio Userland, so
instead of handcoding my little headlines, they should appear in RSS
2.0 feeds as properly coded titles. You can do this too -- just look
under Radio's preferences under "item level titles and links." Thanks
to
Tim Bishop for the tip.
Another useful piece of open-source software I'm making a note of
(thanks to
Jon Udell
for the pointer):
Audacity, an audio-file
editor.

A few more random thoughts
03/27/2005 01:39 PMThere are a few things that continue to grate on my nerves as we near
the start of the second half of Apple’s fiscal year, so I though I’d
throw them all out there at once. Have fun.
Why can’t Apple allow first- or second-generation iPod users enjoy its
Lossless Encoder? If a simple firmware update can bring it to the mini
or the later-model players, why not all of us early adopters, too? If
you’re like me, there are at last 10 CDs that haven’t made their way
to your iPod, because you’re too last to re-encode them.
Do the actors in their commercials reflect what Dell really thinks of
its customer base? From the “Dude, you’re getting a Dell” guy, to the
trio of geeks fighting over control of their gadgets — one watching
cartoons, one singing hopelessly out of key and the other looking
playing a video game that involves the obligatory silver key — how
does this help expand its marketshare? If I was in the market for a
computer, those three fools certainly wouldn’t sway me.
Why is Apple the only company that gives any thought to naming its
music players. Dell and Creative both names theirs Jukebox (Creative
came first) and most of the others merely use a series of letters and
numbers to distinguish between models. On Dell’s commercials, they
shirk the name entirely. The guy says, “Just listen to your Dell.” Who
says that!?!
If, like me, you thought the $16.99 price was too high, but PodBrix’s
black Lego figurine holding a miniature iPod is currently selling for
more than $150 on eBay. And you guys wonder why Mac people are so
misunderstood.
Since I downloaded the $35 coupon from Amazon.com before it was
pulled, will I be able to use it? And will I once again get three
utterly useless software update coupons?
And why has Apple not built a store in Rhode Island? The Providence
Place Mall is a four-story behemoth in the heart of the capital city,
and with Brown University within walking distance, it only seems
logical. Oh, and Spymac’s weekend columnist lives right around the
corner.
Seventeen of the top 20 items selling at the Apple Store are iPods or
iPod-related. And to think, when it was released less than four years
ago, it was riled as an overpriced niche product.
These days, signing a contract with Apple is a bad luck charm. Teaming
with Hewlett Packard and Pepsi were disappointing, IBM has struggled
with supplying G5 chips, and now Motorola, who has struggled with
Apple in the past, has sputtered twice with the unveiling of its
iTunes phone. Maybe Apple should start partnering with its
competitors,
On the subject of IBM, what happened!?!? Back in July 2003, Steve
promised 3GHz inside of a year and now, nearly two years later, we’re
still 500MHz away. There’s nothing necessarily wrong with missing a
goal, but Apple and IBM seems to have all but forgotten it existed.
And it’s been nearly a year since the Power Mac has seen a speed bump.
And finally, someone should start an iPod recycling company, With four
million sold in three months, there are going to be an awful lot of
discarded iPods in a year or so. Perhaps a modern art exhibit can be
opened. Or maybe they can be donated to starving rap artists in need
of bling.

into large media objects has now infected Doug, and we've been talking
about how to enable that capability on his site.
...More on Random-Access Audio
More on Random-Access Audio
05/18/2004 07:31 PMNow that I've had an hour to think about it , I would prefer not to
modify my server. Many reasons, but one is that IT Conversations would
not be able to deliver these "clips" from our worldwide
content-delivery network provided by Limelight Networks. So that
leaves out the new URL scheme, at least so far as requiring the server
to understand start/stop inherently.
I also don't want to start messin' with customizations to Winamp. It's
not that common an app and it won't run on all platforms.
So I'm back to a modified Plan A: a customized embedded player written
in Flash. This little guy would understand how to play excerpts of MP3
files using the same random-access methods discovered by Jon Udell.
That part is now solved thanks to Jon. The only other issues are (a)
how to communicate the start/stop offesets to the player, (b) how
users who want to "virtually create" clips determine and specify those
start/stop points, and (c) how users add the virtual clips to their
own web sites and blogs.
Working backwards, (c) if we make the Flash player (with a small
visual footprint) publicly available, then anyone can stick it
anywhere with an tag, etc. Easy, I think. (b) At the very least, an
person wanting to create a virtual excerpt can obtain the start/stop
offsets using their existing MP3 players. We could eventually support
and simplify the process within the Flash player. (a) I don't know
enough about Flash, but I would guess we can pass data to the player
from the server in response to an HTTP GET.
To put it together, we create a URL with start/stop arguments, but we
don't expect the HTTP server to deal with it. Instead, we use PHP,
Perl, etc., to process the arguments and return the file that loads
the Flash player and communicates the arguments. That mechanism can
vary site-by-site. There's no need to standardize it so long as the
mechanism that communicates with the Flash player is consistent.
(Gotta learn more about Flash!)

A780, a Linux-based handset that will run on EDGE (new wireless
broadband fastness) networks. And while it's full-featured as anything
-- 1.3-megapixel camera, gostosa! -- the most interesting thing
about the A780 is its screen. Through a hole in the flip-top basic
information like Caller ID can be seen, while the full display is
accessible when opened. It's a smart design; hopefully developers will
take advantage of it.

Maybe. But not sufficiently so for the

much anything about it.
Maybe the Judge could have recommended the same sex-ed scheme that
shows, in parts of England and Wales where it [called A Pause] was
trialled in 104 schools, sexual intercourse among 16-year-olds fell by
up to 20 per cent.
Now that may mean we have to have
more
discussion of oral and manual, with less genital-genital emphasis.
Anything that promotes the right to say 'no' amongst vulnerable young

Passym sucks
Passym sucks
01/22/2004 03:17 AMTonight is my second night in an Embassy Suites with Passym
Wireless internet access, and I have to say that Passym really
sucks.
Connectivity is just horrible. I don't know why the service sucks
so badly... it might be because I'm in a corner room (they're larger
at the Embassy Suites) or it might be because I'm using a Macintosh,
but neither of those two things should be reasons that the
connectivity sucks so badly...
Maybe there are too many people using the service to keep up with
what I want to do, but that shouldn't be a problem. I've normally
stayed in Wyndham and Marriot hotels with Wayport access, and even
though most of the time those hotels only provide wired access, they
always worked just fine. I could connect to my office's VPN at the
most complicated end of connectivity issues, and I could definitely
send email through my own servers, but with this silly Passym service,
I can't connect to the VPN and I can't even send email through my own
service... and the speeds are terribly slow compared to what I expect
them to be... especially at $10/day.
The worst part is that to get technical support, I'm supposed to
email their support@ email address... no one here at the hotel knows
anything about the service from a technical/troubleshooting
stand-point, and I can't get email out through my email client. Good
thing I have a webmail client set up on my server...
So, next time I stay in a hotel, I'll ask them if they have
internet access, and I'll ask who the provider is. If it's Passym,
I'll choose a different hotel if internet connectivity will be a
need.

05/12/2004 08:23 AMHow do I turn on the screensaver with a key combination!?! I don't
want to use the hot corners (I already have them overloaded with
Exposé and I want to have the top left corner free so I don't have to
worry about counting pixels when I try and access the Apple menu), but
so far the best way to lock the Powerbook is to go and turn the lid
down and then back up again. which turns on the screen saver (and
stops iTunes, BTW, since the computer goes to sleep for a second).
I know there are Mac people reading me, so please: tell me which key
combination I have to use, or which freeware application I have to
install to just be able to press Apple-F12 to lock the computer! I've
been trying to find the info from Google, but apparently I haven't
been able to figure out the right keywords.
Frustrated now!
(Sorry for the headline, just wanted to grab your attention there. My
Mac Powerbook does NOT suck, it is a wonderful little machine and I
grow more attached to it every day. It is by far the best computer
I've ever owned. I just need this one thing to make it perfect.
Please?)

25 years ago a
Chicago radio disc jockey had an idea for a promotional event.
Steve Dahl invited his listeners to bring a
disco record to a double-header White Sox game. Between games he was
going to blow them up. What happened was a
full
scale riot that caused the White Sox to forfeit and disco to die.
