Disconnecting The Holy Grail

Disconnecting The Holy Grail 06/30/2004 07:19 PM
Last week, we wrote about the fight for the "triple play" of voice, video and data to the home over a single wide pipe. At the time, I wondered whether or not the cable companies and telcos were a little too focused on the "to the home" part -- and ignoring how wireless might matter. Over at TheFeature, I've tried to explore this idea in further detail and look at how the move to a wireless world may take some of the thunder away from the triple play battle. The triple play is still important, but it may now need to be an anywhere, anytime to any device kind of triple play, rather than a fat pipe connected to your home.

Looking For The Holy Grail In Online
Gaming 05/19/2004 12:03 PM
For all the talk about all of these new online worlds that companies have been rushing out, none have really been living up to a few of the early success like EverQuest. Even then, while there is a strong EverQuest community, it hasn't been as big of a success as some traditional offline video games. While many companies quickly jumped into the space, they're now realizing that they may have hit a wall in growing the market. While new games are trying to appeal to a different market, none have been that successful so far. The problem with most online games is that they're community based and, as such, the community needs to keep playing. That makes it difficult for the "casual" gamer to take part. If they don't login for a few days, they're way behind everyone they were playing with. Meanwhile, there's still the stigma attached to online games of it basically being the online version of nerd camp - taking the old ideas of Dungeons and Dragons and placing them online. This isn't particularly appealing to the less-nerdy set - even in times when being considered a geek isn't quite so bad as it once was. Some are hoping that online sports games may change things - especially since it will involve more time specific games. Sports games have a start and an end, and the world doesn't continue moving all of the time. The games that are simulating a real world have the problem that, just like the real world, they never seem to stop. At this point, it's still quite early to write off the entire space. Someone will come out of nowhere with an online game that doesn't fit into any of these categories and catches on like wildfire. Just like "reality TV" caught on out of nowhere in the TV realm, we'll suddenly have hundreds of online games that no one expected.

Holy Bestseller, Holy Sequel

Holy Bestseller, Holy Sequel 05/20/2004 11:37 AM
The Da Vinci Code author Dan Brown says he considered including another theory in the book that would have inflamed Christians even more than the notion that Jesus married Mary Magdalene and made babies. What if Jesus survived the crucifixion? According to this AP Article, "Brown said the theory is backed by a number of 'very credible sources,' but that he ultimately decided it was too flimsy." I'm burned out on the whole Holy Blood, Holy Grail trip though. Brown's next book, set in Washington, revolves around the Masons! Apparently, the dust jacket of The Da Vinci Code contains a clue about the sequel. Link

Just stop the bus and lemme off. If you care about small (and not so small) CMSes, you owe it to yourself to take a hard look at Drupal 4.2. Yeah, it's a bitch to install without command line access -- though there are ways -- but Drupal's getting so many conceptual things right that it can't be ignored. Drupal looks very rich and very extensible. Because it's open-source GNU/GPL licensed, I predict it'll pull ahead and stay ahead of all competing products. The UI's not all it...

Cory Doctorow: The awesome Viennese net weirdo artists at Monochrom have identified the best sources of holy water in Vienna and are offering them for sale at reasonable rates:

monochrom.at has, therefore, obtained samples of Holy Water from ten selected Viennese churches. These samples have been mixed in correct proportions, purified from pathogens through distillation and osmosis, and then bottled in handy portions. monochrom.at therefore feels confident that they are offering not only the best Holy Water of all Vienna (city average) but the most aseptic Holy Water in the entire world.

monchrom is offering 20 vials (signed, dated) for sale, each containing 0.125 liters of purified Holy Water (city average) for E 44.95 per vial.

Punk rock in the holy land

Punk rock in the holy land 04/13/2005 01:36 AM
Xeni Jardin: Jessica Smith from FRONTLINE says:

In Israel, a vibrant punk scene has emerged in a society torn apart by the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. In four candid video interviews, FRONTLINE/World reporter and filmmaker Liz Nord talks to the musicians driving the movement. Like other young Israelis, the punk rockers have been affected personally by the conflict. They have fought as soldiers and lost friends and fans killed by suicide bombers. Bands from both ends of the political spectrum use their music to comment on Israeli society. Others make music just to have fun. But all of them agree that punk rock represents freedom.

EFF has taken things one step further with JibJab and their endangered political parody of This Land is Your Land (Woody Guthrie's copyright holder has threatened to sue them for their work).

We're bringing the fight to Guthrie's rightsholders, and suing on JibJab's behalf, "to defend JibJab's fair use and free speech rights."

EFF defending creators of This Land is
Your Land parody

EFF defending creators of This Land is
Your Land parody 07/29/2004 06:53 AM
I'm proud to relate that EFF is representing Jib Jab, the creators of the wonderful "This Land is Your Land" Flash parody that aroused the ire of the holder of Woody Guthrie's copyrights and resulted in a threatened lawuit. Here's a little bit of my cow-orker Fred von Lohmann's letter to the copyright-holder's lawyers.

In your July 23 letter, you contend that "This Land" offers no "satirical comment" on the Guthrie original. You are mistaken.

While your view of Guthrie's "This Land is Your Land" as being predominantly about "the beauty of the American landscape" and "the disenfranchisement of the underclass" is interesting, most Americans think of the song as an iconic expression of the ideal of national unity. Jib Jab's parody addresses, among other things, the lack of national unity that characterizes our current political climate (ending with the optimistic hope that unity might be rediscovered). In short, "This Land" explores exactly the same themes as the Guthrie original, using the parodic device of contrast and juxtaposition to comment on the original. See Abilene Music v. Sony Music Entertainment, 320 F .Supp.2d 84, 90-91 (S.D.N.Y. 2003) (emphasizing the role of contrast and juxtaposition as parodic devices). The parodic comment takes on an additional dimension of irony when viewed in light of the often omitted closing stanzas of Guthrie's original.
