GM in trouble: "If you erased the company name from the balance sheet and showed it to a forensic accountant, the recommended treatment would probably be to seek protection from creditors by filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. " GM's troubles are as much a result of the exploding costs of health care as they are due to the company's dropping market share. In Canada increasing health care costs (PDF with many charts) are taking a greater and greater share of government expenditures. In the US it's hurting big employers and regular people. But either way the problem doesn't seem likely to get better any time soon.

Unitarianism: good enough for two
presidents, not good enough for Texas 05/19/2004 02:47 AM
The state of Texas has denied Unitarians tax-exempt religious status because the church "does not have one system of belief." As Julia notes, Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams were sufficiently convinced of the Unitarians' religiosity that they actually were Unitarians.

Never before -- not in this state or any other -- has a government agency denied Unitarians tax-exempt status because of the group's religious philosophy, church officials say. Strayhorn's ruling clearly infringes upon religious liberties, said Dan Althoff, board president for the Denison congregation that was rejected for tax exemption by the comptroller's office.

Google and the public good

Google and the public good 12/19/2004 03:24 PM
For those of us who are still consumers of those bundles of printed content known as books, the importance of today's news of Google's library deal is almost impossible to overstate. It's just huge.

While the Web has represented an enormous leap in the availability of human knowledge and the ease of human communication, its status as a sort of modern-day Library of Alexandria has remained suspect as long as nearly the entire corpus of human knowledge pre-Web remained locked away off-line between bound covers. "All human knowledge except what's in books" is sort of like saying "All human music except what's in scores." There's lots of good stuff there, but not the heart of things. Your Library of Alexandria is sort of a joke without, you know, the books.

Now Google, in partnership with some of the world's leading university libraries (including Stanford and Harvard), is undertaking the vast -- but not, as Brewster Kahle reminded us at Web 2.0, limitless -- project of scanning, digitizing and rendering searchable the world of books.

Google's leaders are demonstrating that their corporate mission statement -- "to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful" -- is not just empty words. If you're serious about organizing the world's information, you'd better have a plan for dealing with the legacy matter of the human species' nearly three millennia of written material. So, simply, bravo for the ambition and know-how of a company that's willing to say, "Sure, we can do it."

Amazon's "look inside the book" feature provides a limited subset of this sort of data. But where Amazon has seemed mostly interested in providing limited "browsability" as a marketing tool, Google has its eye on the more universal picture. And so the first books that will be fully searchable and readable through this new project are books that are old enough to be out of copyright. The public domain just got a lot more public. (And presumably, as John Battelle suggests, we'll see a new business ecosystem spring up around providing print-on-demand physical copies of these newly digitized, previously unavailable public-domain texts.)

This is all such a Good Thing for the public itself that we may be inclined to overlook some of the more troubling aspects of the Google project. Google is making clear that, as it digitizes the holdings of university libraries, it's handing the universities their own copies of the data, to do with as they please. But apparently the Google copies of this information will be made widely available in an advertising-supported model.

For the moment, that seems fine: Google's approach to advertising is the least intrusive and most user-respectful you can find online today; if anyone can make advertising attractive and desirable, Google can.

But Google is a public company. The people leading it today will not be leading it forever. It's not inconceivable that in some future downturn Google will find itself under pressure to "monetize" its trove of books more ruthlessly.

Today's Google represents an extremely benign face of capitalism, and it may be that the only way to get a project of this magnitude done efficiently is in the private sector. But capitalism has its own dynamic, and ad-supported businesses tend to move in one direction -- towards more and more aggressive advertising.

Since we are, after all, talking about digitizing the entire body of published human knowledge, I can't help thinking that a public-sector effort -- whether government-backed or non-profit or both -- is more likely to serve the long-term public good. I know that's an unfashionable position in this market-driven era. It's also an unrealistic one given the current U.S. government's priorities.

But public investment has a pretty enviable track record: Think of the public goods that Americans enjoy today because the government chose to seed them and insure their universality -- from the still-essential Social Security program to the interstate highway system to the Internet itself. In an ideal world, it seems to me, Google would be a technology contractor for an institution like the Library of Congress. I'd rather see the company that builds the tools of access to information be an enabler of universal access than a gatekeeper or toll-taker.

The public has a big interest in making sure that no one business has a chokehold on the flow of human knowledge. As long as Google's amazing project puts more knowledge in more hands and heads, who could object? But in this area, taking the long view is not just smart -- it's ethically essential. So as details of Google's project emerge, it will be important not just to rely on Google's assurances but to keep an eye out for public guarantees of access, freedom of expression and limits to censorship.

Why Google News Is a *Good* Thing

Why Google News Is a *Good* Thing 09/30/2002 01:19 AM
8 Reasons Why Google News Is a *Good* Thing Dave writes how he's not impressed by Google News. Exact post: Google PR sends a message that they have a new News service. Maybe I'm slow this morning, or maybe I'm spoiled, but what's the big deal. I thought they already had this. My personal aggregator is better, it shows me what I'm interested in, it's not one size fits all. Help me figure this out. I'm sure there's something innovative here, I just don't see it. Permalink From a technical perspective I'm not sure that there is a lot that's new here. I still think this is huge though: My aggregator is just that mine -- I heavily tilt it in favor of tech / blogging / highly ecclectic stuff. I don't get general purpose "What's Going On" news -- and, sure, that's my fault. So what? A personal aggregator is always or at least often going to be this way. Google is giving me a much more balanced viewpoint. That's huge. Google is integrating foreign and U.S. feeds into one composite display. Given that there are differences in how U.S. media report stories versus foreign media, this makes it very apparent and that's good. The U.S. media is not always right. The user interface is highly functional -- I could easily see my Mom using Google News. I couldn't see her using a "traditional" aggregator be it Radio, AmphetaDesk, Drupal or another. The concept of aggregation is fundamentally important and one of the very real contributions that UserLand made to us all. Still aggregation doesn't mean squat beyond a small group of folks. Google News will introduce the concept very widely. Everything is very clearly time stamped i.e. "55 minutes ago". It's not going to get confused when someone re-edits a url they've already posted so the same thing shows up as new repeatedly. A Caveat. Google's reputation is such that I feel that they did a good job of picking the news sources which is particularly important for foreign information. When I caught the Indonesian bombing news this morning, I trusted the sources that Google chose to show me since they're from Google. Now that may be naive and perhaps it is but a lot of us will do that. They aren't relying on XML feeds so they aren't dependent on news sources that lack feeds like Voice of America. And while there are lots of ways to build these, it's generally non-trivial. Google News isn't going to replace my aggregator any time soon but it is a good tool that I can see myself using regularly. Visit Google News

Google Tries To Offer Distinction
Between Good And Bad Spyware 05/19/2004 12:03 PM
Google has been a bit worried that new spyware legislation will include things that could make their IE toolbar (and possibly other new Google doodads) illegal. Realizing that the debate doesn't seem to be going anywhere, they've tried to put together a list of generally accepted practices of what companies shouldn't do in creating software that may be considered spyware. While some may disagree with some of the points on the list, it probably is a good thing to get it written down just as a starting point for debate.
