Gnome, Longhorn, Tiger, ..., and CC
metadata
06/28/2004 07:47 PMWe are happy to hear that current and upcoming operating systems
will have built-in support for application-level metadata. Gnome
(Linux), Longhorn (next version of Windows) , and Tiger
a> (next release of OS X) all will be offering some way to store and
search metadata for files and applications. Google
is also expected to get into search applications on the desktop.
How can Creative Commons take advantage of these technologies to
enable CC-aware search and applications on the next generation
desktop? Challenge: write a research brief on how to expose CC
license info for objects in each major OS or framework.

If
you really need to have that extra edge when you play, there's a
bizarre new "Focus Trainer" from SportsLink that's supposed to improve
concentration and focus before atheletic activity and really get you
into "The Zone". It sounds more like a trip to the Laserium if you ask
us:
First, find a nice quiet place where you won't be
bothered. Put the glasses and headphones on and pick a session. You
can choose from 15 of them, ranging from "relaxed calmness" to
"anxiety release." Press Start and wait. After a 10-second countdown,
you hear a weird noise like a soothing low feedback. It gets louder
and then softer, stunted a bit and then drawn out. Then the lights
kick in. There are six small, flashing lights that blink furiously on
the top rim of the glasses. Shut your eyes, take some deep breaths,
and the effect is really strange.

Tiger Previewed
06/28/2004 04:31 PMSteve Jobs has been previewing some of the key features of
Tiger at the
WWDC in San Francisco. All
the new stuff is on the Apple website, but here’s a diluted list
:
- iChat
AV — updated to include multi-way AV conferencing (with a
funky 3D interface).
- Safari
RSS — an updated version of Safari to allow reading and
management of RSS feeds.
- Dashboard
— open & manage Konfabulator-style widgets
- Spotlight
— super-fast global search facility. Search through your
contacts, iCal diaries and email as well as files.
- Automator
— create and deploy actions to perform common routines (in a
great looking interface too).
- Xcode
2.0 — updated version of Apple’s IDE (with visual
modelling and improved Java support).
- VoiceOver
— the much heralded Spoken Interface. A system-wide feature
which makes Tiger the most accessible OS available.
Sounds great, but I may save the cash and put it towards one of those
gargantuan
30-inch Studio
Displays…
First impressions of Tiger...
First impressions of Tiger...
06/28/2004 04:31 PMA few first impressions of Apple's upcoming Operating System: Tiger:
- Spotlight
- basically an Apple native verstion of Launchbar with a
few self-evidently nice features (searching Mail). After using
Launchbar for a while I can state without question that it feels like
part of the OS after a while, so if the Apple version has the similar
ability to run it without using the mouse, then I'll be pretty happy.
I doubt Objective Development will be, of course...
- iChat
AV - the new version allows you to conference call ten people and
video chat with loads of people too. That's pretty cool. I'm pretty
bloody impressed by that. It's going to be pretty awesome and totally
what I've been hoping they'd do. It fits in really well with some
other thinking I've been doing...
- Safari
RSS - sites with RSS feeds are marked when you go to them, which
is cool, and then you can subscribe to them directly through the
interface. I'm not convinced by their interaction design here - I
suspect I'll keep using NetNewsWire for the time
being - but it's certainly a positive step that can't help but make
RSS penetration...
- Dashboard
- basically this one is a fucking rip off of Konfabulator and I'm pretty
pissed off about it. I'm not a particular fan of the paradigm, but I
don't think that's pertinent - unlike RSS feeds and the Launchbar
knock-off there doesn't seem to me to be really any reason for
building this into the OS, it's not particularly interesting or
powerful and it really does seem just like nicking someone else's
ideas and lobbing them into your Operating System because you can.
Harsh, Steve. Harsh...
- Automator
- as far as I can tell this is a GUI for AppleScript, allowing people
like me who get scared by even the simplest of scripting languages to
automate tasks quickly and easily without ending up dribbling into a
cup. My personal jury is out on how useful it'll actually be on a
day-to-day basis but that doesn't mean that I'm not impressed.
AppleScript for the rest of us?
- VoiceOver
- a spoken interface for the Mac. I'm not really qualified to comment
on the technology, but certainly the aspiration is good and important
and I don't doubt it'll serve Apple well in cracking governmental
markets. My only quibble - I'm not so impressed by the little white
man they made in Illustrator to put in the logo. He looks a bit lame
and ... bendy ...
- .Mac
sync - a revised version of iSync with a simpler UI and apparently
some developer hooks. It still pisses me off that you have to have a
.Mac account to do any syncing across the internet. I can't quite
believe that function is worth the $60 a year, nor do I think it's
even vaguely conceivable that you couldn't explain to someone how to
set up a server to handle that stuff themselves... Seems like a
slightly shitty attempt to drill money out of you in an entirely
random way...
- Better
Unix - neat! I think!
- XCode
2.0 - wish I understood it!
- System
Wide Metadata Indexing - this is seriously cool and API'd up the
wazoo so hopefully it will start to lay the foundations of the Finder
technologies of the future...
All in all the big news for the operating system is the integration
of search and metadata technologies into the heart of the Operating
System. The Safari RSS and iChat AV stuff is pretty cool too and
everything else looks like tweaks, gimmicks or outright rip-offs. I
wonder when it's out?

07/01/2004 10:20 AMBesides some under-the-hood improvements, including better
graphics and video performance, Tiger has innovations that could
change the way people interact with their computers, writes
BusinessWeeks Peter Burrows. The most exciting is a new
search capability, called Spotlight, for quickly finding and
categorizing information on the hard drive. [Jul 1]
