From Microsoft Watch: Microsoft has been backing a proposal for a new .mobi top-level domain that is under consideration by ICANN. But the father of the Internet, Tim Berners-Lee, doesn't like .mobi at all. Nor does he like .xxx, .mail or the handful of other new domain names that ICANN might adopt by early next year.

Safire Takes A Shot At Us

Safire Takes A Shot At Us 01/07/2004 02:11 PM
William Safire has managed, by his current lexicographical persona, to obscure the memory that he once sat on the right hand of Richard Nixon. He reminded me of that earlier, less avuncular, Safire this morning. He has an op-ed in today's New York Times that is astonishingly smug and nasty, even for him. In it, he gloats over his perception of a deepening division between the centrist, Clinton-esque wing of Democratic party and what he describes as "The Dean-Internet Party, its Bush-despising base so energized as to be frenetic, its leader happy to be the apostle of anger, its bandwidth bandwagon gaining momentum with each pulse of its cursing cursor." There's more to be said about the political depths of this remark, but it's Christmas eve, and I'm in a charitable mood. Besides, the television vs. Internet, Industrial vs. Virtual, corporate vs. individual nature of this election, is a subject that demands more thorough discussion than I have time for this morning. The most grimly entertaining part of his screed comes at its end. Safire proposes a scenario in which Dean will falter, and, after the Democratic party has been recaptured by the Republicrats, he will leave the party in a sulk, creating conditions for a Bush landslide. Safire worries that a huge Bush mandate, as opposed to his mere reelection, might be bad for the country. Right. We can't afford to lose this one, folks. If we do, we'll have to set our watches back 60 years. If they even let us have watches in the camps, that is....

SiliconValley.com - Matt McAlister, a vice president of Web operations at trade publication giant IDG, is bringing back to life the Web site and, more importantly, the parties of the Industry Standard. The former high-flying bible of the Internet economy crashed and burned during the dot-com debacle. IDG, which was the Standard's majority owner during the glory days, bought the rights to the magazine's name after it filed for bankruptcy in 2001.

Kids Only Domain Takes Three Years To
Get 21 Sites

Kids Only Domain Takes Three Years To
Get 21 Sites 06/05/2005 11:57 PM
More than three years ago, when US politicians set up the "kids-only" domain of .kids.us, we wondered how many sites would actually bother with it, noting the "chicken and egg" problem the domain faced. We now have an answer. Three years into the experiment, there are a grand total of 21 sites hosted in the special .kids.us domain. Yes: twenty one. A thriving community. It probably doesn't help that to host there you have to pay about $400 a year for registration and "content review" vs. $7 or so to register a .com. Somehow, we're confident that .xxx won't face the same problem.

quick mobi & java links 12/30/2003 01:15 AM

Erik is not feeling well hope you get better soon Erik! I've been fighting a cold for the last week, but I've kept it at bay. Hopefully going uphill now. Anyway, here's a mini-list of quick links, Erik-style. Paltry compared to the deep-wide filtering Erik does. It's good I don't do this every day. :-)

• Russ posted a great analysis of piracy in the mobile industry. Must read. He also posted some thoughts on a mobile all-digital PTT app.
  
• Jim has posted a table of mobitopia postings per user. *Shame* *Shame*. I've been completely inactive in November. In fact, in the last couple of weeks I've barely logged into the #mobitopia channel. I miss it! December looks better though.
  
• From James Gosling: The Peter Principle, software developers' version. Heh.
  
• (Via Erik, Alan) A new site for promoting Java Web Start applications has been launched.
  
• From Carlos: Open Source under the Microscope
  
• James mentions< /a> a Looking Glass demo. Looking Glass is a 3D GUI system, a research project by Sun (I mentioned it a sometime ago when I was talking about Sun's new strategy). I wonder: when are we going to move beyond the demo phase and see some binaries? (Or code, Schwartz mentioned it was going to be an open source project).

Ok. That's it for now. Back to work. :)
