Treat Me Like a Fool

Treat Me Like a Fool 04/04/2005 01:29 PM
Robert MacMillan of washingtonpost.com writes this story about April Fool jokes: “Google appears to be dodging and feinting with its April Fools’ Day lineup. Users of its Gmail e-mail program encountered a bar graph and a short note explaining the company’s new project, Infinity + 1. The news seems suspect enough, but if so, the Associated Press and News.com bought it. But more on that in a moment. Google’s obvious joke shows up on a…

Every few weeks I get email from folks blocked from viewing metafilter at work, asking for my help. I'd never experienced it, so I usually tell folks that if they don't know the right IT person to ask, maybe they shouldn't browse the internet on the job.

I'm staying in a hotel in San Francisco right now and they offer free hotel wireless, which is nice. What isn't nice is that they've got a proxy server set up, just like a lot of large workplaces. You can probably guess where this is going.

Here's what I get when I go to any site that ends in .metafilter.com

And just to show you how lame the system is, it thinks Glassdog is mature. A quick scan of the average day's posts there shows you just how catty and immature Glassdog can be.

There doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason. BoingBoing works fine, but Waxy.org doesn't. Why on earth should a hotel wireless network care if you want to visit "chat" sites? Why insult your own guests?

I'm sitting on the doorstep handing out treats to trick or treaters. I'm dressed up as a computer geek with my laptop playing Halloween songs from Rhapsody over my wireless network.

Well, okay, I'm not really dressed up... it's my everyday outfit, but I'm still running with it. It's a shifted holiday at my house!

Oh, and the Laughing Librarian just came by my house with his daughter. He's dressed in a safari outfit with a giant snake wrapped around his body. Awesome!

Treat British Airways as damage and
route around them

Treat British Airways as damage and
route around them 08/29/2004 12:41 PM
Cory Doctorow: I was trying to buy a one-way ticket from Brussels to London in September, and I ran into the weirdest, dumbest thing: British Airways won't sell you a ticket over the Web if your credit-card isn't billed in the same country the flight originates in (Er, hello? You're an airline -- that means you deal with people who are traveling, sometimes to countries other than the one that they reside in).

So I called BA and was told that the same ticket would cost 400 percent more if bought over the phone. So I went to a BA counter in Boston and was quoted a fare that was 200 percent more than the Web-fare.

I tried booking through Expedia, but they wanted to mail me a paper ticket. Since I rarely touch down in any city for more than a couple days, intersecting with a postal-delivery system for time-sensitive materials is pretty tricky.

Then I gave up on the Web and went to SN Brussels Air, a little carrier whose website has never ever worked for me. I called the London reservations desk and booked a ticket for exactly what BA charges via its website.

That's no surprise: as it turns out, the flight is operated by British Airways. It's the same goddamned plane.

So that's the point of this post: if ever you want to book a ticket on BA from Brussels to London, book it through SN Brussels Air (by phone -- the website will probably remain busted for all eternity), and you can circumvent BA's dumbass ecommerce policies and extorionate phone/counter prices.

Latter-day ashphalters call on feds not
to treat fiber like roads 03/19/2003 10:45 PM
Clay sez:

The 21st Century Infrastructure Consortium (21st CiC)is dedicated to bringing high-bandwidth fiber to the home. Or, rather, they are dedicated to FTTH as long as our city governments don't get involved. From the looks of the paper 21st CiC has filed with the FCC, the worst thing that could possibly happen is that someone could be scheming to offer you access to pure bandwidth, uncluttered by monopolistic business practices.

From their FCC filing: "Municipalities, even when they promise to build an open-access network, should not at all be involved with the FTTx industry."

So take that, you municipal stooges! Your puny notions of "open access" are nothing to us! (I'd suggest a drinking game involving the number of occurrences of the phrase "unfair competition" in a two page PDF, but I think the AMA would revoke my blogging license.)

The very idea that the government would want to treat access to bandwidth as even remotely analogous to access to highways has latter-day asphalt manufacturers in a tizzy. Municipal FTTH may die a-borning, if the beneficiaries of such services don't make themselves heard.

Link Discuss (Thanks, Clay!)
