Registering URL Protocols

Registering URL Protocols 01/05/2004 11:34 PM

Registering an Application to a URL Protocol: Here's a handy note on how to register a new URL protocol to an application in Windows.

Adam did it with Zempt — a URL starting with "zempt://" will start that app and pass it a bunch of information. I always wondered how he did it, and I finally got curious enough to go looking.

This is also handy to debug why a certain application isn't the default app for mail or Web or whatever. I couldn't get Outlook to give up the "mailto" protocol for anything. However, even the mighty Outlook can't stand in the face of an blithering idiot and his ability to change raw registry entries.

Registering Your Car During A Traffic
Stop 12/05/2003 11:19 AM
Talk about real-time computing. A New Jersey man who was pulled over by police for not having his registration up-to-date did some quick thinking to keep his car from getting towed. He told the officer that he just hadn't gotten around to renewing the registration form, and was told that that's no excuse - especially since it's so easy to register online. The officer then returned to his patrol car to write a ticket and call for a tow truck - since it's illegal to have an unregistered car on the road. The driver found the registration form, which was in his car, called a friend on his mobile phone and had the friend register for him online while the cop was writing the ticket. When the ticket was written, the guy told the surprised officer that the car was now registered, which was quickly confirmed. The ticket was still issued, but the tow truck was canceled. Of course, if the guy had a smart phone he probably could have done the whole thing himself - but it still is impressive. Sometimes, always being connected can be useful.

Tired

Tired 05/06/2004 01:45 AM

I am getting tired of making execuses for our troops in Iraq.  I know it's just a few among hundreds of thousands there who were responsible for the ugly deeds.  I also know that it was the zealots in the military intelligence willing to do anything to get information and irresponsible army commanders more interested in avoiding political conflicts than doing the right thing.

But the road to understanding how those soldiers can do what they did, even if coerced, leaves rest of the hundreds of thousands American soldiers in Iraq naked.  Could other groups of them have behaved better under the same circumstances?  Sadly, my answer is no.  Only consolation is that armies of other countries would not have done any better if they were traumatized through the same tragic events as US have.  Some consolation.

I am not sure which is worse.  Death of thousands of American citizens and Destruction of a famous American landmark or stunning blows to our pride like this.  The former enraged me, the later left me hollow.  I know that most of the pride was more wishful thinking reinforced by the hero-worshiping media, but it's shocking still to be stripped of it.

Not feeling too good. So the best way to combat it is to try and make a three-pane layout for the blog on the couch while waiting for Survivors to begin. Hope it works; it ain't too complicated. Notice also the new link icon on the right, if you want to link to my blog.

P.S: Sheal Israel: Scoble is an evangelist for Microsoft and is totally enthused about its technology. What is news is that Scoble, at times, is among Microsoft's toughest critics... He's the most honest company evangelist youwill find, anywhere.

Tired Is Wired

Tired Is Wired 07/14/2004 06:35 AM
Paul Boutin's latest piece for Slate is an amusing story about a friend of his who registered the domain name Tired.com back when both were working at Wired (remember all that Wired/Tired hype?). Like so many people who ended up owning a website, he had no idea what to do with it and put up a simple message: "Are you tired? Tell us why" and linked to an email address. It turns out, people were tired, and they had no problem telling why. For the past seven years, the guy who runs the site has received over 32,000 emails, coming in at a fairly constant rate during all that time. The site isn't advertised or talked about much (until now, I guess), but tired people keep showing up and answering the question. Boutin posts a couple of examples, and then notes that no one tries to disguise their identity. He believes that they simply don't think about the consequences at all, and are just answering the question.

Tired of being locked into formats?

Tired of being locked into formats?
Well then don't! 01/18/2004 01:39 PM

I'm not a fan of OPML, I think it's a truly awful (and unnecessary) format - other people have found < FONT color=#333366>it problematic too - but I did think Dave Winer's Share Your OPML! site looked interesting, especially when there was a little SDK available. But then yesterday I read Eric's post pointing to the floater Dave had left in the pool :
If you wish to use the data for a different kind of application, or convert the data into a format other than OPML, for redistribution, it's likely we'll say yes, but you must ask first.

Anyone that's had dealings with Dave in the past will know what this means. Leigh asked (in comments) but had his request deleted. Basically Dave wants control, and he believes the formats will give him that control (remember the RSS patent application?).

I'm all for republishing, but not with strings attached. I don't want material under my copyright abused in this way. So I politely asked Dave to remove references to sites I maintain from his data. Anyhow, Dave's response was:
Do you want to make a legal case out of this?

Personally I thought that was pretty sad, but that might in part be cultural bias - being English I tend to think of etiquette before litigation. Whatever, unfortunately for Dave, and fortunately for the rest of us, formats aren't such a lever any more because the web will either ignore or work around attempts at lock-in.

I think the most sensible thing is to simply ignore Dave's site, but for purposes of demonstration, here's a workaround. The key obstacle is that Dave insists that you can't republish his data unless it's in OPML format. If it is OPML, you don't even have to ask. Ok, here is another version of the index file that points to all the others at "Share Your OPML!". This is still OPML format. Please do with it what you like. Incidentally, this new file is also valid RDF/XML.

Given that OPML is as thinly specified as it gets, and RDF/XML is designed to make it easy to make XML formats RDF compatible, it wasn't particularly difficult. Here's what RDF-compatible OPML looks like:

<opml opml:version="2.0"
xmlns="http://opml.scripting.com"
xmlns:opml="http://opml.scripting.com"
xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#">
< ;head/>
<body rdf:parseType="Resource">
<outline opml:text="John Blog" opml:ctUpdates="8" opml:type="link" opml:url="http://example.org" opml:whenLastUpdate="Wed, 14 Jan 2004 03:28:00 GMT" />
</body>
</opml>


I first had to add some attributes to the <opml> element to give the XML namespace support. That top element becomes a resource in the (stripey) RDF interpretation, with head and body as properties, their contents being other resources. To keep things simple I just ignored the contents of the <head> element, so that gets interpreted as a triple with an empty object (I must check on the semantics of that). The element itself is mandatory in OPML, so that has to stay.
The <body> in effect contains a set of resources of type outline, which is easy to express by adding the rdf:parseType="Resource" attribute on the parent. The attributes of the <outline> elements all slip neatly into being RDF properties with literal values.

Couple of points that probably need explanation - since the spec update there's been no need to include a root <rdf:RDF> element. If the consumer knows it's RDF, that's good enough (the W3C's validator has check box: "RDF is NOT enclosed in <RDF>...</RDF> tags"). Also the use of unqualified attributes has been deprecated, so it should be opml:text="..." rather than just text="...". This makes the code look a bit uglier, but if you're using a lot of namespaces it does make mistakes much less likely.

I made the changes using search and replace, but this could easily be automated using XSLT. But if you are planning on using Userland format data from anywhere else, it's probably a better bet to use something a little less generic than the approach above (stylesheets for OPML to OCS and Userland RSS to RSS 1.0 are linked in the comments here).[Raw]

Army reboots GI's tired fatigues

Army reboots GI's tired fatigues 05/26/2004 12:13 PM
Story by my Wired News colleague Noah Schachtman about the Army's seven-year, $250 million uniform high-tech-ification and redesign project -- dubbed Future Force Warrior, or FFW.

One of the most obvious changes is that the new uniforms are unisex. The zipper has been extended, and the uniform's butt flap has been expanded, so GI Janes aren't literally caught with their pants down if they have to pee.

FFW's body armor is probably the biggest improvement, however. It sits on a series of foam pads around the rib cage, so there's a 2.5-inch gap between the harness and the body. It keeps the GI cool. And it's almost imperceptibly light -- unlike today's bulletproof vests, many of which are about as comfortable as that lead apron the dentist makes you wear during X-rays. But the scarab-like shell can take five to seven direct hits from a machine gun, and it doubles as a holster for ammunition and grenades.
