You know you're using the right software when, night after night, you have that "oh crap, I was supposed to be home an hour ago" moment. OS X engages me that way without obviously working at it, just by respecting the fact that humans use their software. By Tom Yager (InfoWorld via MyAppleMenu)

Prozac Found in Britain's Drinking Water. Norman Baker, environment spokesman for the Liberal Democrats, said it looked "like a case of hidden mass medication upon the unsuspecting public." Or possibly something less alarming, like the recycled leftovers from the public waste... either way, very disturbing.

There's an interesting dialogue going on between Robert Scoble and John Dowdell regarding whether RSS feeds should be full-text or excerpts only. I tend to like full feeds, even on my Treo, but to me it's a personal choice and everyone is different. That's why I think every site that is willing to offer a full feed should also consider providing an abridged feed. That way, the user can pick the one she finds most useful (or, in some cases both, depending on how she's reading it at any given time).

For libraries, this is really a no-brainer, especially if you're using Movable Type. Your default index.rdf feed is an excerpt, so all you need to do is create a new file, name it something else (like index.xml or rss.xml), and change "MTEntryExcerpt" to "MTEntryBody" in the code. Just change that one word, and you're in business.

Yes, it really is that simple. Please consider doing it.

Oh, and a personal plea to librarian bloggers - please consider adding a full text feed for your own site!

Traffic Island Discs is a radio programme [on Resonance FM] about music, people and spaces. We roam the streets looking for people wearing headphones, stop them, and interview them while recording whatever they are listening to. The result is a half hour tour of an area of London, heard through people's personal tastes and rhythms. The site has the archived shows [Broadband (or save as mp3s)]. [via Ci ty of Sound]

Forget guitars, basses and drums. Ignore singers, rappers and deejays. As we enter 2005, and cast our eyes back at 2004, it seems like the real revolution in music hasn't come from a musician, but from a piece of technology. Namely: the almighty iPod. By Jim Farber, New York Daily News

Dave Winer: WHen you ask a Microsoft person to say what Longhorn is supposed to do, you get rambly hand-wavy words that mean nothing. A product with a purpose has a two-sentence description that gets everyone so excited they can't wait. Longhorn isn't designed to solve anyone's problems. I think they all know it, but they can't say it out loud because they've all drunk the Kook Aid on this.

Would You Want To Buy Longhorn Now?

Would You Want To Buy Longhorn Now? 12/02/2003 12:13 AM
It's no secret that plenty of bootleg software shows up in various marketplaces in Asia. Thus, while I'm not at all surprised to hear that Malaysian street vendors are apparently selling bootleg copies of Microsoft's Longhorn OS, I have to wonder who would buy such a thing? Microsoft, of course, isn't known for getting things right on the first shot, but this isn't even the first release of Longhorn, but something that is so far in pre-release mode that I'd be surprised if it really works at all. Longhorn isn't expected to hit the market for a couple of years (note the plural), so I imagine anyone who actually spends money on it at this point is getting something that isn't anywhere near ready for prime time use.

It will be as impressive as new operating systems always are claimed to be. Here's Paul Thurrott's review of Windows 98 (”...you must understand that this is the ultimate Windows. It's the best it's ever going to be, and yes, that's quite good”).

When it comes right down to it, what exactly does Longhorn, the next version of Windows really need to have? Let's face it, Windows XP was largely a cleaned up, prettified version of Windows 2000.

Longhorn, which has been in development now for something like a million years is supposed to be truly next generation. So what should it have?

This article over at WinCustomize.com has been developed over the past few days goes over 10 features users seem to think Longhorn needs to have.

Windows Longhorn? 08/11/2004 12:43 AM
I'm not sure why Microsoft feel the need to reinvent the name of their operating system with every major release: Windows 1.0 to 3.1.1, Windows 95 to 98, Windows NT 3.5 to 4.0, Windows Me, Windows 2000 to 2003, Windows XP. Sure it's confusing, isn't it?
But, anyhoo, can you help out Microsoft's marketing department in coming up with a new name for Longhorn?

Doing The Impossible With Longhorn

Doing The Impossible With Longhorn 09/11/2004 05:38 AM
It's funny how circumstances can change your perception of what's possible. A few months ago, key Microsoft architects were telling me that it would be impossible to decouple the Avalon presentation subsystem from the Longhorn OS. Now they're huddling in conference rooms trying to figure out how to do just that. It makes me wonder what else might turn out to be possible after all. By Jon Udell, Infoworld (via MyAppleMenu)
