I never knew relaxation was such hard
work!
05/15/2004 08:45 AM

If you've tried to comment on the site in the last few hours then you'll probably already have noticed that I've upgraded to MT 3.0 and that I've turned on most of the draconian comment features. In the last couple of days I have had the better part of sixty comment spams from various hardcore pornography, bestiality and rape sites and quite frankly I've had enough.

Anyway as a result of the upgrade there are a few templates across the site that have broken and look a bit crappy. I'll try and get that stuff sorted over the weekend, once I've ploughed through my new book on Illustrator. I'm so far behind in my various obligations outside work that I can't really imagine I'm going to get everything done I want to over the next couple of days, but I'm going to give it my best shot. In the meantime, I can recommend Troy - it's long and it's not particularly accurate, but it's mostly pretty compelling and has a few ridiculous Classics jokes which appealed to me in it. Back in a bit.

No analyst firm has a magic crystal ball. But they often proclaim that they can see into the future, that the market for virtual Gigabit QoS application firewall platforms will reach $1 billion by 2008 - and yes, I just made that up. Maybe I could do this analyst thing. The problem today is that people remember when you make outrageous predictions, ever since the Internet bust dashed so many false hopes. In our story today several analysts look back at predictions that were way off. If only they knew then what we all know now http://www.nwfusion.com/news/2005/013105widernetresearch.html?net

9/11 commission report: much of what we
knew was wrong.


9/11 commission report: much of what we
knew was wrong.
07/25/2004 02:44 AM
This piece in today's New York Times outlines a number of the presumed truths about 9/11 which the 9/11 commission report effectively debunks. Among them:
The commission's report found that the hijackers had repeatedly broken the law in entering the United States, that Mr. bin Laden may have micromanaged the attacks but did not pay for them, that intelligence agencies had considered the threat of suicide hijackings, and that Mr. Bush received an August 2001 briefing on evidence of continuing domestic terrorist threats from Al Qaeda.
Link to NY Times story, Link to downloadable report, and here is Kottke's helpful outline of the lengthy report's structure.
