more and more aware how mainstream I'm not. It all started with
reading the Top Searches 2003 from Yahoo! and the 2003 Google
Zeitgeist. I have never used KaZaA, didn't read or see Harry Potter,
haven't seen the new Matrix film, never watched American Idol, and I
don't find Britney Spears attractive. I couldn't tell you what sport
Kobe Bryant plays (and don't care either, thanks). Last...

great ideas of 2004. Question #1: Where is Creative Commons here?
Don't they read WIRED at the

Linkin Park + Jay-Z? Hats off to them for innovating, but this is just
the tip of the iced-down Rolex.

to capitalize on this, awarding a new car to the best song that uses
samples from his new album and any older Bowie song. Voting on entries
starts this weekend and the contest ends next month so get your

Case Modding Going Mainstream?
Case Modding Going Mainstream?
01/22/2004 06:28 AMPeople like to personalize their workspace, whether it's the
background on their computer desktop, or sticking some pictures on
their computer case. However, more people seem to be getting into the
idea of
case
modding: making serious changes to the case that contains their
computer - such as building a complete fish tank into one. If you
surf enough geeky/techie sites, you've definitely seen more than a few
such case mods - some more crazy than others. I have always wondered
why computer companies never made it easier to personalize your own
computer, but in a tight margin-driven business, such "extras"
probably carry little weight with the decision makers. The other
question, of course, is how the steady rise of laptops over desktops
will impact the modding culture? I haven't bought a new desktop
machine in at least five years - and can't think of a good reason to
bother with one ever again.
Bioinformatics Moves Into the Mainstream
Bioinformatics Moves Into the Mainstream
12/17/2003 02:32 PMBioinformatics Moves Into the Mainstream - An Explosion of
Data Is Being Tamed with New Systems By Jennifer Ouellette in The
Industrial Physicist (Volume 9, Issue 6)http://www.a
ip.org/tip/INPHFA/vol-9/iss-5/p14.htmlGenome mappings,
those completed and those in progress, have generated a vast amount of
biological data, and now more than ever, scientists need sophisticated
computational techniques to make sense of it. To meet those
ever-increasing needs, bioinformatics is shifting from software
designed for a specific project in academic laboratories to the
commercial mainstream. Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary research
area loosely defined as the interface between the biological and
computational sciences. In practice, the definition is narrower,
according to Michael Zuker, a professor of mathematical sciences at
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in Troy, New York. For Zuker
and many others, the term applies to the use of computers to store,
retrieve, analyze, or predict the composition or structure of
biomolecules. These include genetic materials such as nucleic acids,
as well as proteins, the end products of genes. ... The need to manage
and analyze this data largely drives the current bioinformatics boom.
'Biology is awash in data,' says Eric Jakobsson. 'We cannot exploit
the body of data that is currently out there -- we cannot mine it --
without computers, and now we cannot even handle the data in our own
individual labs without sophisticated computation.'"

Blogging Goes Mainstream When It Hits
CNN
03/11/2003 10:45 AMBlogging Goes Mainstream
" 'Just like the Internet was 10 years ago, blogging is popular
with an underground culture that is doing it for the love and
passion,' said Tony Perkins, who edited the recently folded Red
Herring technology magazine and last month launched a business blog
called Always On Network.
'Now there are people like me coming along and trying to figure out
how to package it,' Perkins said. 'It's time to take it to the next
level.' " [http://www.cnn.com/
]
This is a reprint of an Associated Press article from last week,
but what's interesting is the poll on CNN's site asking if readers
have ever used a blog. Assuming that bloggers aren't deliberately
skewing the results in an attempt to get BigCos to stay away from
blogs (like that could happen now), 55% of the more than 1300 people
that answered the poll picked "No and I probably won't."
That's probably accurate because if "using" means "working with,"
by the time they use a blog, it will be integrated into whatever
software they are using. If "using" means reading a blog, they still
won't know because to most folks it will just be a web site with
short entries arranged chronologically.

Cell Phone Jukebox: The M4300,
LG’s Musicphone
“Samsung’s got a musicphone
(that new 3GB SGH-i300
handset). Motorola’s got a musicphone (they have those iTunes phones coming up, but they’ve already
got the E398 and the MusicMOTO
MS350). Pantech’s got a musicphone (the PH-S4000).
Sony Ericsson’s got a musicphone (their new W800 Walkman
phone, no less). Nokia’s got a musicphone (they’ve
done a few—anyone remember the 3300?). Even HTC/Dopod’s
got a musicphone (the 585 we
wrote about last week). So maybe it’s no surprise that our old
friends LG have been showing off a musicphone of their own this week,
the M4300.” [Engadget]

08/04/2004 06:17 AMBusiness Blogging Goes Mainstreamhttp://www.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=technology
News&storyID=5834827Major technology companies such as
Microsoft and IBM are endorsing blogging as a means of enhancing
companies' communications channels while at the same time eyeing them
as potential profit-boosters. At a recent conference held at the
University of California Berkeley's Haas Business School, IBM Almaden
Research Center director James Spohrer outlined his company's plans
for integrating blogging into its employee communication strategies:
"It's about decreasing social space between employees, and increasing
the amount of knowledge shared between people." An example might
contain some of an individual's educational background and work
experience, as well as information on product development strategies
that colleagues and customers can access around the clock. This
sharing of information could spur feedback on efforts to produce new
products and improve business processes, said Spohrer. Meanwhile, some
analysts are looking at the marketing potential inherent in blogging.
"Blogs are a way to put a human face on the company," because of the
continuous interaction and relationships that employees can develop
with blog-readers, says Forrester Research analyst Charlene Li.

Peter J. Howe, a staff writer — they didn't farm this out to one
of their (excellent) tech writers. Peter writes: If Internet-based
weblogs turned everyone into a potential newspaper columnist, and
digital cameras let them become photojournalists, podcasting is
promising to let everyone with a microphone and a computer become a
radio commentator. After the fold, he gets to what the effect
podcasting will have on broadcasting: With the ability to mix
home-grown creations with an increasing choice of mainstream
offerings, we'll get program allegiance,...
