Hey, Your Library's Books Are in My
Google. No, Your Google Is in My Library
Books.
12/19/2004 03:36 PMSo the big<
/a> news is about Google
and libraries. I don't feel the need to comment on this
right now, as you can find plenty of other places for that. However,
here are a few angles I haven't seen discussed elsewhere in the
library blogosphere.
- Librari
es and the Internet
"More broadly, the Internet can profoundly improve the relationship
between libraries and society. For example, there are two major
libraries in my town -- a college library, and a public library. My
library card works in both places. I used to favor the college
library, because there was open WiFi access there -- which meant,
among other things, that I could use LibraryLookup from my laptop to
find books in the stacks. Recently, though, the college shut down its
open access point. And from an IT administrator's point of view, I can
understand why. Not long after, the public library installed an open
access point. So now it's my favorite spot, and lately I notice other
mobile professionals congregating there too." [Jon Udell's
Weblog
(Click over to read Jon's story about getting locked in
the library, too!)
- "A quick calculation using the figures above suggests an average
scan rate of 3200 volumes per day (assuming 365 days/year for 6 years)
at the University of Michigan site alone." [Tito Sierra on the WEB4
LIB mailing list]
- "An even quicker calculation shows that they will need to
digitize 2.25 books _a_minute_, 24 hours/day, 365 days/year to
digitize 7 million volumes in six years." [Roy Tennant on the WEB4
LIB mailing list]
It's times like this when I wish
Karen Coyle had<
/a> a blog.

Thomas Keller and Per Se
Thomas Keller and Per Se
05/17/2004 02:42 PMBig article in New York about my favorite chef Thomas
Keller and his new restaurant in New York City, The Perfectionist Gets Burned: How
Thomas Keller survived the fire that almost took down Per Se.
"Just the other day, Thomas was so proud to show me
how they use painter's tape in the kitchen," [The French Laundry
Cookbook co-author Michael] Ruhlman says, visiting the Per Se
kitchen one afternoon. Instead of tearing the tape from the roll to,
say, label the plastic deli cups that hold the ingredients at each
mise en place, every strip of tape at Per Se is cut with scissors,
every edge perfectly straight. Immaculate. "Because it's all one thing
to Thomas. You can't be lax in one area and perfect in another.
"It's not about the sweeping vision," Ruhlman adds.
"It's about the minute vision. There are no big decisions. A great
restaurant is the result of a thousand little decisions. A place like
this is just composed of details. It's a pointillist picture. So every
night after service, you'll see Thomas down on his knees, scrubbing
out the cupboards."
Ah, that sounds like the Thomas Keller who charmed me as I read
Michael Rhulman's wonderful book, The
Soul of a Chef: The Journey Toward Perfection. I love the minute
vision, the focus on the thousand little decisions, making sure each
one is as right as it can be. Of course, such perfectionism is
exhausting, but I think that's just how I'm made. And reading this
makes me want to take back what I said the other day about not wanting
to eat at Per Se. Maybe I do after all...

Ask Thomas Jeffeson. Here's a snippet that Dan pulls out of the
article: Common Sense and other pamphlets like it were precisely the
kind of political journalism that Jefferson had in mind when he
insisted on a constitutional amendment in 1790 to protect press
freedom — anonymous, highly opinionated writing from diverse,
independent sources. In historical terms, today's bloggers are much
closer in spirit to the Revolutionary-era pamphleteers than today's
giant, conglomerate mainstream media. Both Chris' piece and Dan's
discussion of it are well worth reading... [Technorati tags: blogs

about PHP
Interview with Dilip Thomas of WROX
about PHP
02/07/2003 09:40 AMInterview with Dilip Thomas of WROX about PHP
Ivan, of the new PHP Traveller blog, just published a good interview
about WROX's direction with their PHP books:
Q: You seem to have been very busy publishing PHP books. Are there any
other books about PHP in the works?
Dilip Thomas: There are *many* more PHP books in the pipeline. We have
a solid commitment to publishing the best PHP books, and that too on
diverse topics. In my opinion, Wrox == PHP in the same sense as ORA ==
PERL. The next best PHP book to look out for is the "PHP MySQL Website
Programming - Problem Design Solutions", that is slated to release in
March '03 - It dissects the creation of a complete application driven
website (using PHP/MySQL/Apache) from design to deployment (using the
very popular Problem - Design - Solution approach).
Q: What will "PHP Web Graphics Handbook" and "PHP String Handbook" be
about?
Dilip Thomas: Wrox Handbook's are new way of providing in-depth
information on a specific task of a technology, by documenting the
options, problems, best practices (to circumvent the problems) in that
particular domain. It endeavours to be a reference for life and
transgresses the rather shallow task-specific coverage that specific
tasks are accorded to, in our Professional books. The "PHP Web
Graphics Handbook" (scheduled for March '03) is an extension of the
"Professional PHP Multimedia Programming" book that was released in
September '02. It will show readers how to write PHP code that will
create professional-looking web graphics and images "on the fly"
(using GD, IM, netpbm, JpGraph etc).
The "PHP String Handbook" will take a close look at text manipulation,
and use of regular expressions in PHP. It will also cover advanced
Regexes and patterns. [_Go_]
Nice job. Thanks man. If I get a copy of these books from WROX, I'll
publish a review. And WROX also now has WROXBASE, an equivalent to
O'Reilly's Safari as best I can tell.

Common(s) Sense of Thomas Paine
Common(s) Sense of Thomas Paine
01/11/2004 07:56 AMDavid Richards writes, and evilsite.org
says, that
Thomas Paine assigned the copyright to "Common Sense" to the
Continental Congress. Richards speculates he was the first to do so,
and should thus be a model for Creative Commons.
So at first I thought that was right (the model part; I don't know
enough about the history part). But here's why I don't think so now:
We should distinguish in this debate between altruistic copyright
policy, and reasonable copyright policy. I'm all for altruism, and we
certainly don't have enough out there. But
Creative Commons is not about
altruism; it is about reasonableness. CC says balance, not self-less.
It is trying to find a way to restate what balance there should be "in
the digital world" (how I hate that phrase). Voluntarily, no doubt,
but not self-lessly. Self-lessness, and sainthood, like free and open
source software, have enough models out there. CC is not yet another.

Make Interviews Thomas Burick
06/05/2005 11:13 PMPhillip M. Torrone has done
an audio
interview (MP3 format) with Thomas Burick, founder and president of
White Box Robotics. The
interview was done for the new and amazing O'Reilly Make magazine (if
you have seen it
yet, grab a copy - it's full of weird and wonderful homebrew/DIY
projects). The Make
blog also has some cool photos and pre-production sketches of the
White Box robots.

Thomas Burick on the Future of PC Bots
01/09/2004 11:23 PMRoboticsTrends.com has posted
a recent interview
with Thomas Burick of White Box Robotics.
According to the interview, it turns out Thomas got his start with
the venerable Heathkit Hero
robots. The
interview provides some background on Burick as well as details on
White
Box Robotics' 912
series of PC based robots. If you haven't seen the 912 robots yet,
take
a look - they're some of the nicest looking robots currently
available. They're based on the VIA Mini-ITX motherboard.
The consumer version of the robots will ship with Windows and
proprietary control software from
Evolution robotics but the article suggests that a lower-cost
"bare-bones" version might be available without the expensive software
licenses for robot experimenters and researchers who want to run Linux
and one of the more
developer-friendly Open Source control systems.
