"Steve Jobs demoed Safari’s RSS Reader today. Read about it and then check it out in action.

Update: Brent Simmons, developer of NetNewsWire, reacts to Safari RSS." [The RSS Weblog]

Is this big news? Sure, but anyone that reads Scoble knows Microsoft is working towards integrating RSS into Longhorn itself.

However, I agree 100% with Steven that the best RSS aggregator is one that is web-based, not a desktop client. As more and more people shift their information on the go, the last thing they'll need is to begin relying heavily on an aggregator that they'll lose when their desktop crashes. 'Cause we've all had that happen, haven't we?

Apple to bite into gaming market?

Apple to bite into gaming market? 04/08/2005 12:00 PM
Neilsen Entertainment on Thursday revealed results of a study concluding that men spend more money on video games than on music. According to Neilsen spending on games has become the second ranked purchased category for males behind DVDs and in front of CDs, MP3 and music purchases. As we can see in the figures from Nintendo and Sony for the first few days of sales of the companies new handheld systems, game and console sales are going well. Sony managed to snag 500,000 customers of its PlayStation Portable (PSP) within the first two days of its North American release, generating over $150 million at retailers. The company boasted that what makes the $150 million mark "all the more spectacular," is that "PSP sales were achieved during a traditionally slower non-holiday season launch, and during a period when many retailers were closed for Easter." The launch of PSP was everything the company had hoped for, according to Sony Computer Entertainment America president and CEO Kaz Hirai. "In only two weeks, PSP is having an immediate impact across the entire industry as consumers are clearly voting it the product of the year in 2005." Nintendo sold nearly 87,000 units of the Nintendo DS in the first two days alone in the UK. Several retailers in the UK opened at midnight so DS fans could be the first to purchase the device. As of launch time in the UK of the DS, Nintendo sold more than 3 million units worldwide. At the end of March, the company announced that sales in the UK surpassed 500,000 since the March 11 release. "The launch of Nintendo DS in the UK has been an unprecedented success; breaking all expected sales figures and even exceeding our expectations. Nintendo fans, new and old, have embraced the Nintendo DS and have left no doubt that it is the new must have handheld console," Nintendo UK General Manager David Yarnton said. "Nintendo set out to create a new way of hand-held gaming, offering an innovative and enjoyable experience and with the new Nintendo DS, and we have certainly accomplished this." The success of the Nintendo DS has even helped Nintendo prepare for the launch of its upcoming Nintendo World Store set to open in New York City this spring. The store will allow visitors to try out new and unreleased games for Nintendo DS, Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance SP at sampling bars and interactive stations. The two-story mega-complex will also be the new home of Pokémon Center and will host a myriad of Nintendo merchandise, accessories, DVDs and Pokémon trading cards. With the gaming market so strong and continually growing, why doesn't Apple break into the burgeoning $35 billion annual global video game market? Well, maybe it plans to. According to an anonymous report, MacRumors.com was told that Apple and ATI have been discussing either creating or purchasing a game development unit. Creating a games division could help attract more PC users to switch to the Macintosh platform. The website also noted that Apple appears serious about improving gaming performance on the Mac as recent reports have noted that Apple, ATI and NVidia are actively recruiting developers to improve OpenGL performance. Since game sales are above and beyond sales of CDs, digital music, and other music purchases, perhaps Apple would be wise to break into the increasingly popular (not to mention, incredibly profitable) gaming market... just in case it doesn't reach the forcasted 23.5 million iPod sales mark in 2006, or continue to have one million downloaded songs per day from the iTunes Music Store.

Last week we noted that anti-virus companies were putting out press releases including ridicul ously high estimates for the amount of "damages" done by the myDoom virus - and refusing to give any info to back up the claims. Now, however, in a surprising move, another anti-virus firm, TruSecure is admitting that many exaggerated the impact of the virus, which they say really wasn't that big of a deal. They still say that the virus did plenty of damage, but suggest that the reactions from many overstated how much damage was really done.

make my day, bill-ites

make my day, bill-ites 03/14/2005 05:51 PM
So there's a blog first created by the volunteers who watched Fox to create the data necessary to produced OutFoxed. They posted an item about a Bill O'Reilly column, which itself was posted on the web. The company syndicating O'Reilly's column wrote them a nasty letter, telling them to take the column down. They did, and replaced it with a link. The same company wrote again, insisting that the blog was guilty of "unauthorized linking." Dear syndicators of Bill: Me thinks there's no such concept as illegal linking (outside of China, at least, and please, don't pester me with misreadings of the 2600 case). Indeed, I think that I, like anyone else, am perfectly free to link to the column, as this link does. And indeed, I'd invite anyone else out there who thinks that we still live in a FREE LINKING world to link to the same. Got to find some way to keep those lawyers busy.
