Mark Frauenfelder: The Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link will turn 20 in April. I became a member in 1989 and though I haven't posted anything there in years, the discussions I had there and the friends I made have had a profound influence on my life.

Incredibly, twenty years of living online have sped by since the Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link opened to members on April 1, 1985. Twenty years is a milestone in the life of any group or town. A full generation of WELLbeings have changed and been changed by extraordinary experiences together here. Serious celebration is in order through the month of April! WELL members past, present and future are invited to celebrate this milestone with us online and off.

As the Mac turns 20, has the PC caught

Twenty years ago this week, during the year of Big Brother, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak introduced the Apple Macintosh. Although the seminal advert sticks in everyone's minds, it's easy to forget just how revolutionary that little beige, boxy, Mac was. At the time, Windows version 1 was still a year away, and overlapping windows and icons on the PC would not appear for another three years, in the form of Windows 2--later to be renamed Windows 286. And of course all those early versions of Windows ran on top of the DOS command-line operating system.

Regular users of Google might have noticed a new logo on the popular search engines new page.

Google's 5th year has been explosive, and perhaps it's most important to date. It's seen its IPO, a variety of new features, and continued dominance of the search market.

Although it's been exciting, they've faced increase competition from other market players, and had a variety of law suits thrown at them.

Best of luck to Google, and many happy returns!

System/360 Turns 40

System/360 Turns 40 04/09/2004 04:05 PM

IBM Celebrates 40 Years of Mainframe Technology: Chris once programmed one of these to play Doom. Seriously.

Today, IBM marks the 40th anniversary of the System/360, the mainframe that sparked a revolution in computing and business. The System/360 was considered by many to be the most sophisticated computer of its time and is responsible for introducing many important technologies that are still in use today, such as transaction processing, micro-circuitry, and databases.

If you're interested in the origin of databases as we know them today, look up Ted Codd. He wrote a paper in 1970 that started the whole thing. IBM let it go to waste, but Larry Ellison used to it to build the Oracle database platform, and he seems to have done okay for himself.

Linksys Posts Beta Firmware to Correct
Remote Admin Problem 06/04/2004 02:13 PM
Linksys has posted beta firmware for its WRT54G that closes a potential remote access hole in its security: The initial report indicated that remote administration of the WRT54G was possible out of the box. The consultant who reported the problem checked other WRT54Gs: if firewall protection is turned on (Linksys says this is the default and users confirm), then the remote issue is non-existent. However, some of the units that the consultant purchased to test had firewall service turned off out of the box. A Linksys spokesperson said that this release is labeled beta because other functionality changes are in progress and not yet finalized. Linksys' official statement reads, "For those rare few that do disable the firewall and turn off remote admin on their WRT54G, Linksys advises those users to download the latest beta firmware which is posted on the Linksys website." I just purchased a WRT54G to test out its default configuration, and I can confirm that I received a unit with firmware v2.02.2 (which predates the 2.02.7 March 2004 release), and that its firewall service enabled....

Samsung Adds DivX Support via Firmware
Update 07/28/2004 01:20 PM

Now I'm sure you'll correct me if I'm wrong, but do any of the current movie download services offer their wares in DivX format? Because if not, where exactly does Samsung, when detailing its plans to upgrade some of its DVD player firmware to support DivX, intend its customers to get the files that "can be downloaded over high-speed lines in a relatively short time?" Surely not the internet. That would be tantamount to murdering film carpenters' entire families.

That aside, DivX firmware updates for Samsung players from the company itself is plus plus. Now if they'd throw in a little XviD flavor we could stream the movies we've already (legally, for honest) ripped. Update: Oh, hey, look at the image that I put up myself. I'm mostly functional! (Thanks, Antii!)

Also, Happy Birthday, Modbuster!
