03/12/2003 03:54 AMThe NYT is reporting that AOL is providing software to customers to
block pop-ups. The sheer number of ironies in this
article is
simply delicious, and renders further comment unnecessary:
1) "AOL pioneered the often annoying but effective pop-up
format"
2) "10 percent of its users had chosen not to receive
pop-ups from AOL's own service, an option that has been harder to find
than the new blocking software." Hard to find? Almost impossible.
3) "the number of sites that will accept pop-ups is
increasing, including ever more sites owned by AOL Time Warner like
Mapquest and CNN.com."

06/05/2005 11:35 PMJune is finals month, but the call of @media 2005 is hard to
resist. I won't be attending the actual conference (sadly my student
budget doesn't stretch that far) but I'll be in London on Saturday the
11th to ride on the coat-tails of the conference.
PPK (yes, that PPK) is hosting a JavaScript get-together in the afternoon at a Thames-side
pub; confirmed attendees so far are PPK, myself, Stuart Langridge,
Dean Edwards and Jeremy Keith but anyone else who wants to set the
JavaScript world to rights is more than welcome to attend.
Planning a little further ahead, I'll be in and around San
Francisco from the 11th to the 16th of July. My diary is more or less
open at the moment, so if there's anything fun going on I'd love to
hear about it.
Update: I almost forgot, I'm also
attending the London Geek Dinner on the 7th of June. If you're
interested, there are still 12 places left (out of 200).
Staying valid
Staying valid
05/02/2004 05:01 PMAndrei Herasimchuk:
There seems no automatic way to keep a site valid with web standards
unless you close it off to the rest of the world to contribute to it.
I will not do that anytime soon.
There is: I'm doing it. Next Thursday will mark the one year
anniversary of my
switching to application/xhtml+xml as the content-type header for
this site, for user agents that support it. Using that content-type
forces Gecko engine browsers to refuse to render pages if they are not
well-formed XML,
so if a page is invalid I hear about it pretty quickly.
So how do you keep a frequently updated site with data from
external sources and user comments valid? There are really only two
things you need to do. Firstly, ensure that everything going IN to the
system (entries and comments) is valid XHTML. I do that using a simple validation system for comments
and a bookmarklet for my own
entries. Secondly, any and all data from external sources (my blogroll
from blo.gs, blogmark URLs added using a bookmarklet) needs to be
entity-escaped before being displayed on the site. In my case, a call
to PHP's
htmlspecialchars() function is all that's needed.
I'm not saying my system is ideal - the need for well formed markup
in comments is a major usability issue even on a site with an audience
consisting mostly of web developers. But it's certainly possible to
operate a site in XHTML with frequent updates and user comments
while staying valid at the same time.

Sponsorship, jobs and staying alive
Sponsorship, jobs and staying alive
08/07/2004 05:37 PMI really think Om Malik is
just jealous - as Anil has the perfect job - getting
paid to do what you LOVE to do.
Anil works for SixApart - has a real adult boss now and (in theory)
is building up a bunch of founder's equity in a company destined to go
places. So here's Om Malik complaining about Anil plugging his
product.
MORE BELOW from ME on this issue of staying alive and getting paid
for it......
Here's
Om's post.....
File this one in the "Blogging world is so incestuous
category." By now unless you are a presidential candidate you have
heard about Anil Dash, a
former New York hipster who has sold his soul to Silicon Valley and
moved to the left coast. He has this little blog, which is kinda
popular, and that makes him an A-List blog-dude. On his blog, he has
this thing called sidelinks, which actually got the
whole sidelink movement started. It is a compilation of lots of funny
things, interesting things and even sometimes sad things.
So why is it that I see at least one or two mentions of
MoveableType/Six Apart every day? I am sure there is a world, and
links outside those cubicle walls. My theory is that Anil just is
drinking the kool-aid :-) and like all SV folks is becoming tunnel
visioned. We want the old Anil back.
(PS: Anil still remains one of my favorite peeps in Planet
Kalifornia! Also I simply ran out of things to say, so I am picking on
AD! :-) Anil no offense meant!)
[Gigaom]
OK - back to Marc....
So my last post was on all the obnoxious amount of money that
Google has at it's disposal and how that money is actually making it's
way out into the community, via 7 job listings for UI work at
Google.
That's 7 new jobs people.
So I'm sitting here thinking "Damm" - I need a coprorate sponsor
for my micro-content roadshow.
Let's see - something like:
Or perhaps I could write Tucows on my chest - like Chris Pirillo
offers. Either way it's clear that corporate sponsorships have come
to the blogosphere.
The recent BlogON conference was an example of it. The whole thing
started off with Mena and Ben Trott standing up and handing out awards
for the best Moveable Type plug-in. Now I don't mind awards, or
husband-wife teams airing their laundry, but the whole thing got a bit
weird.
It was clear the next day that this conference was being run with
different goals and agenda - then other conferences. There were all
sorts of tables out in the hallway, with people hocking products or
services. The agenda of the conference was very cut and dried,
pre-packaged for investors and marketing people to understand.
But the worst thing were the peopel chosen to participate. Without
naming names (AOL, Cnet, Yahoo - ooops :-) it was clear that certain
companies got to appear - where perhaps they had never appeared
before.
It was like "how much does it cost for us to participate in the
blogosphere" kind of attitude. They were sitting up there -
telling us how our industry was gonna evolve and I thought
"damm, look what's happening!"
This is what corporate sponsored events are about. Giving
companies - who pay - access to "customers" and influencers. Bought
and paid for - just like any piece of meat or soda.
Or CD. Or Movie. Or piece of Art. Or sex. It's all about money
- right?
So there's nothing wrong with Anil having a job or me hussling for
sponsorships for my tour. It could be worse. You could be working
for Yahoo, AOL or Microsoft and have to tow company line and try and
believe in what they're doing.
Being an independent member of this world - means your rep is
everything. We all respect Anil EVEN MORE now that his tunnel vision
is making it clear where his bread is buttered. Right on for
Anil!
And right on for anybody else who figures out how to stay OUTSIDE
that corproate world and stay alive.

Staying creative in the Mac design world
Staying creative in the Mac design world
03/14/2005 04:22 PM
Working in the Macintosh design industry can be both inspiring and
rewarding, but maintaining a solid stance in the increasingly
competitive field takes the latest software and hardware, a creative
mind, and artistic talent.
Just as Mac users often show an incredible amount of enthusiasm for
their computers, creative individuals show passion for their work.
Being passionate about creative work also takes a certain amount of
inspiration. So, how do design professionals stay inspired and
maintain a creative outlook?
Brian Brisebois is a Senior Art Director at a Minneapolis advertising
agency and manages to stay creative by studying everything around him
from a design aspect. "I constantly experiment in different styles,
techniques and mediums... testing in different art forms gives new
perspectives," Brisebois told Spymac. "I read several creative trade
magazines, go to museums and don't go anywhere without my camera. Try
to keep-up on applications as much as I can."
Chicago designer and artist, Matt Maldre also tries to keep on top of
what's new in the computer industry and art world. "It's just almost
a standard to look through Print, CA, etc., but I just don't just look
at the pretty pictures," Maldre says. "I try to read these magazines
from cover to cover."
Self-educated graphic/web designer and cartoonist, Thomas Michaud, has
been working as a freelance or corporate employee on and off for 17
years and has maintained a creative outlook by carrying out different
design work like drawing cartoons, designing clothing logos as well as
doing freelance work.
"I started out drawing political and strip cartoons for the The
University Daily Kansan, at the University of Kansas, between 1988 and
1991 where I studied Political Science - with an English minor. After
graduation, I moved onto t-shirt design and corporate newsletter
layouts and then onto ad and catalog layouts. After moving to
southwest Michigan, in 2001 to marry my wife, I've been working as an
in-house graphic designer/illustrator and some video production for
Lane Automotive, along with various freelance projects through my
personal business IVfx."
There are a number of things that Michaud says help him stay creative.
"The first thing that helps me to stay creative is to just get away
from all design for about a week or two - taking a vacation to just
recharge my mind." With time off from design, Michaud enjoys reading,
playing sports, video games, and working on his house and yard. To
gain inspiration, he subscribes to design magazines and reads various
blogs published by graphic and web designers.
Some of Michaud's inspirational sites include Mike Davidson, Camron
Moll, Jason Santa Maria, Netdiver, Core Industries Gallery, monc, HOW
Design, Veer and Speak Up.

Boyoon
Jung and other researchers at the USC
Center for Robotic and
Embedded System (CRES) have been studying the problem of how to keep
robots alive for extended periods when they depend on batteries that
last a finite amount of time. They have released a research
paper (PDF format) that describes a method of allowing robots to
become self-sustaining by autonomously recharging as needed. Their
idea,
not suprisingly, combines a docking
station for recharging with power management software that allows
the robot to intelligently decided when to interrupt other tasks for
recharging. Boyoon's website includes video clips of their robot
docking
(AVI format) and busy at its normal sentry
activity (AVI format).
