Making Web Communities Work

Making Web Communities Work 01/09/2004 09:58 PM

12 Variables for Understanding Online Communites: Whether or not a Web community thrives or sputters had always been kind of a hit-or-miss affair. This article identifies the 12 most important variables.

The twelve variables we've selected are most likely not all that exist, just the ones we find most important in our thinking right now. These variables struck us as important ways in which communities are differentiated despite the type of software chosen to carry a given community.

Making Wikipedia Work

Making Wikipedia Work 04/27/2004 03:19 AM
Most people, when they first hear about the fact that anyone can edit a wiki immediately come up with all the reasons why it can't work. However, there are a number of large scale implementations that prove that assertion is false. The biggest, of course, is Wikipedia, and Salon has an article discussing how they deal with the occasional vandals. They treat the wiki process a bit different, and will block and ban certain users if they fail a "three strike" policy. Still, it's yet another example of a successful large scale bottom-up project, which established companies keep telling us are impossible.

Do you work ''in Adobe?'' Good, now

Do you work ''in Adobe?'' Good, now
there's a magazine just for you--Layers! 04/05/2005 12:14 PM
Today, KW Media Group, publishers of Mac Design Magazine, relaunched the magazine as Layers -- The "How-To" Magazine for Everything Adobe. Each issue is dedicated to giving readers the latest step-by-step tutorials, tips, and tricks for all of Adobe's design, video, and photography applications.

What happened to Mac Design Magazine? Why the new name?...Scott Kelby explains..."The magazine has grown, changed, and evolved so much over the past few years that the word "design" doesn't really explain all that we are anymore. If you've read us for any length time, you know we're also a magazine for digital photographers, with digital photography news, tips, tutorials, and camera and printer reviews in every issue. Plus, from the very beginning, we've been the only Mac magazine to have an entire section dedicated to digital video editing. But we found that most photographers and video editors didn't really know that because they don't generally reach for a magazine that has the word "Design" in big letters on the cover."

The first issue of Layers (May/June) will be available on newsstands nationwide on May 10, 2005, and is also available by subscription.

Making Open Webmail work

Making Open Webmail work 01/06/2004 03:18 AM
Recently I was asked to provide Internet e-mail to a large segment of our hospital community. The mail had to be standards-based to provide the widest compatibility base possible for the 3,000 people who might have need of it. It had to be Web-based, but not overly complicated, and it had to employ open source (read "free") tools to help keep the budget down. Finally, it had to be secure, to comply with HIPAA regulations. To meet those requirements, I deployed Open Webmail, Sendmail, and Red Hat Linux 9 on a 1U IBM Linux machine.

What a difference a month makes -- I am now using FC2 for production work. Here's how I got around the distro's deficiencies.

Susan Mernit has some good ideas on how it might work. Example: Combine the NY Times or Washington Post with Technorati and Feedster. She asks:

"Why don't we see a major media outlet that will file lots of stories during the election find a way to work with Technorati or Feedster so they can have almost real-time links reflecting people's comments on--and links to--the stories--right on their web site?"

Making USB storage devices work
seamlessly under Linux 12/09/2003 03:51 AM
What do you do when your ISP tells you the reason your Windows box can't connect to the network is because its network drivers got corrupted? You download new drivers using your Linux client and use Sneakernet to move them to Windows. USB storage devices like M-Systems' DiskOnKey are extremely useful for ad hoc chores like this, and I was lucky to have one on hand. But how to make Linux mount the device as seamlessly as Windows does?

People Hate Work 04/21/2004 02:09 PM
Some people really do need to get a hobby. A group of small businesses in the UK is apparently angry at an amusement park for coming up with a silly ad campaign that tries to get people to visit IHateWork.co.uk. The Federation of Small Businesses actually believes that this site is making people hate work and skip out for a day to go to the amusement park. Do they actually believe that people who were thrilled with going into work every day suddenly realized, after looking at this site, that they really hate their job and should skip out for a day? Instead of getting all upset about this, perhaps they should have just taken a day off and gone to, I don't know... an amusement park?

More on Gmail's Virtues and Dangers 04/17/2004 09:57 AM

Tim O'Reilly finds much to praise in Google's upcoming Gmail service, and is much less concerned about the privacy issues than I am. We agree totally, however on a crucial issue: preventing data lock-in. He says:

"The big question to me isn't privacy, or control over software APIs, it's who will own the data. What's critical is that gmail makes a commitment to data migration capabilities, so the service isn't a one way door to the future. I want to be able to switch to alternate providers if the competition makes a better offer. The critical enabler is going to be the ability to extract my data and connections so that I can work with them on multiple devices, for example, syncing my laptop or phone with my gmail account rather than having to work only in a tethered fashion. I understand why gmail doesn't offer this feature now, but it's going to be essential in the long term."

Amen.
