Browser Saturation
12/24/2004 12:57 PMI'm curious these days about actual browser saturation statistics.
Everyone has a different story.
Boing Boing
reported this week that almost half of their visitors are coming
in on a Mozilla-based browser. OneStat.com is
reporting IE has dipped under 90% for the first time in many, many
years. WebSideStory says Firefox market share is up 34%
in one month (of course, they claim this is from 3% to 4%...).
W3Schools is reporting Mozilla
saturation of over 20%, climbing from just 8% a year ago, but this
is just their users, which are often Web developers who are more
friendly to Firefox than the Average Joe. Browser News samples five
sources, which report Firefox usage rates from 5% to 35%. TheCo
unter.com gives Mozilla browsers about 9% in November.
While it seems consistent that Mozilla browsers are definately on
the upswing, I'm beginning to think that browser numbers are good for
only one site: the site from which the log files were pulled.
Everything else is speculation.

07/30/2004 01:53 AMAt Microsoft's financial analyst meeting the company announced its
intention of broadening the Windows XP
Starter Edition program to quell the rising tide
of software piracy and abate the rising popularity of open source
alternatives. Windows XP Starter Edition is a stripped down,
no-thrills distribution of the operating system that was originally
available exclusively in Thailand and Malaysia through social welfare
programs.

After saturation coverage of Olympics,
why no Paralympics TV coverage in US?

BBC Journalist and blogger Stuart Hughes says:
The Olympics were a huge success for NBC.200 million viewers. A "halo
effect" that boosted other channels and programmes. An estimated
$60-70 million profit (Source: Hollywood Reporter) Before the Games started,
NBC boast
ed of the depth and breadth of its coverage.1210 hours of
events.103 commentators. 28 Olympians on the commentary team. A week
from now, I'll be heading back to Athens for Greece's second
remarkable major sporting event of the year. The Paraly
mpics will boast:4000 athletes. 140 countries represented.525
gold medals at stake. 19 sports. There will be no American TV coverage of the
Paralympics. Let me repeat that. There will be NO AMERICAN TV
COVERAGE OF THE PARALYMPICS. Not one hour of live coverage.
Not one commentator. Not one Olympian on the commentary team. Nothing.
This at the same time that a record number of journalists are
preparing to cover the Paralympics.

No nudity, but not safe for work. I love it when eroticism is found
where you might not expect it. Like, simple facial expression, for
example.

02/01/2005 09:33 PM I love pretty numbers. I get excited when I see a pretty license
plate. Or when the time is 16:32. Or when my car has driven 36912
miles. Or when I can get my car to drive at a speed that makes the
speedometer and the tachometer be at the same place in the dial. I
remember phone numbers and pin codes via the relationship between the
numbers. And so on. This morning I had 512 messages marked unread...

I'm a big fan of Martin Parr
and I was lucky enough to get a boxed copy of his retros
pective postcards last year. Parr is an avid collector of
postcards himself and has published several collections of them which
have been reissued in paperback recently: Boring
Postcards USA, Boring
Postcards and the new Bliss
: Postcards of Couples and Families collected by Martin
Parr.
I have a small collection of postcards I've found over the years and
wonder what people will make of them in 50 years. The postcard is one
of the most underappreciated art forms, especially nowadays with email
and 'e-cards' making people who take pen to paper and lick a postage
stamp a rare breed. Postcards of hotels and
motels and restaurants and
diners are fascinating in their composition, their optimism and
the message they attempt to convey to the present as well as to the
future. And they are fun to collect as well as being an easily
concealed addiction that doesn't require frequent dusting. American Postcard Art
has quite a nice assortment of postcards to browse if not all that
unusual or ecclectic. I've also been an active participant in the postcards for mom project
since I think it's a pretty fun idea to have people from all around
the world send your mother postcards with recipes and comics and
whatnot on them. I'd love to see the collection put up online after
they decide to end the project.
A fabulous book recently published by Nemo, Tervei
siä Kaikille! Postikortteja Suomesta, is filled with wacky
and weird technicolour postcards from all around Finland from the
1960s through the late 1990s. [I will note here that the book is only
12euro down at the main post office shop while they last.] I'm hopeful
that there might be a forthcoming volume of older cards as well. There
are no drive through trees, no carhenge, no jackalope or world's most
giant pecan postcards but that can always be fixed. There are,
however, plenty of reindeer as you head north. Finland would be a
perfect place for the world's largest reindeer or most gigantic bit of
salmiakki. What about a Rye Palace fashioned after the legendary Corn
Palace?! :) Build it and the postcards will come. I've been putting
off a visit to the Korttien
Talo [house of cards/postcard museum] up in Hämeenlinna, a city
about 50 miles north of Helsinki, until the weather warms up a wee bit
more and the castle and other attractions have longer opening hours.

Mr.
Rogers got me thinking about the TV shows that spoke to me as a
child.
Captain
Kangaroo was there and
Mr.
Dressup was always great. But for me, no one surpassed
The Friendly Giant
and "Look up. Look way up!" still makes me feel warm and
safe. I did not have PBS available as a child but my sons did and for
them
Mr. Rogers was a
favorite as was TVO's
Today's
Special with Jeff Hyslop's manikin who came to life each night.
Who spoke to you via TV as a child? Parents, who is speaking to your
children on TV these days?
