Only a handful of Linux malware has ever been released in the wild.
While the Lion (2001), Ramen (2001) and Slapper (2002) worms and the
Bliss virus (1997) presented problems for Linux users, they
weren’t nearly as crippling as the worst Windows malware. So,
should Linux users brush off concerns about malware plagues? Short
answer: No.”

Wishful Thinking: Solor iPod
07/05/2004 08:10 AM
Like my grandma used to say, "If wishes
were fishes, we'd all be eating ham." That and the constant begging
for attention earned her a trip to the woods that winter, where Daddy
told me she'd live forever in harmony with her kind. But she had a
point, barely, and Adam Piro better take it to heart. Not only does
his speculative Solar iPod have built-in charging panels, it's got a
color screen. Everyone knows the iPod won't have a color screen, Adam,
because what's the point of that, besides looking at images, movies,
or using it, as you did, to display custom backgrounds? That would
just be silly.

Thinking About A Google IPO
Thinking About A Google IPO
04/13/2004 01:51 AMJames Cramer has written up a great column summarizing many of the
points (much more concisely) that I've been trying to make to people
who ask me about the potential of a Google IPO. The company is
(despite it's incredibly secretive nature) clearly doing quite well
and is probably a worthwhile investment -
if and only if you can get it at the initial offering
price - which is unlikely to happen. As Cramer points out, the
demand for Google stock is much larger than any other IPO.
Everyone seems to want in on this deal, partly due to the
Google phenomenon, and partly due to the lack of big time IPOs in
years. This explains how people who should know better were
conned
into buying non-existent shares in the company. It also sets up
the perfect environment for flippers. The big time institutional
investors are going to get first crack at the shares (at the price the
bankers set the IPO at), and will quickly try to flip the stock on the
open market, where people who don't know any better will snap up the
shares at two, three or even more times its initial public offering
price. What Cramer leaves out, of course, is that plenty of people
who simply don't understand investing will think it's a
good
thing that the stock jumps up so much on its first day of trading when
all it really means is that (a) the company left money on the table
and (b) there are a lot of silly investors out there who don't
understand how to value a stock.

01/25/2004 04:12 PMIt's continuing to be bitterly cold here in NYC (8° F this
morning with -6° F windchill) and so my thoughts have turned to
tropical climates and other seasons. And I started thinking about my
trip to Hawaii in 2000 and when we went snokeling and swam with
turtles. So I poked around and found my two favorite pictures from
that experience, both taken by Jason. Here's me swimming behind the turtle, going
too deep and here's another of me and a turtle closer to the
surface. [sigh] Hawaii sure was swell and those turtles sure were
cute.

06/22/2004 06:12 AMUSATODAY.com - With TiVo's fast-forward, viewers' shrinking attention
spans and new media choices, the 30-second TV ad has more rivals for
consumers' attention. That is pushing marketers' thinking increasingly
outside the TV box for ways to make the costly but still dominant
commercial work harder.

12/19/2004 03:41 PMTwo new articles on big thinkers have turned up. First is an
Investor's
Business Daily article on Alan Turing's life and imagination. It
covers some of the historical aspects of his life as well as touching
on
cryptography, artificial intelligence, robotics, and brain-mind
metaphysics. The summary of Turing's life also conveniently leaves out
the more controversial bits and the cause of his death. For a more
complete
look at Turing's life, see the Wikipedia article. A
more recent thinker on similar problems, Ray Kurzweil, is intereviewed
by DevSource. Kruzweil discusses reverse-engineering the brain,
embedded intelligence, and even has a comment or two about
synthesizers.

Thinking local
08/15/2004 09:21 PMI'm sitting here in Gramd Haven, MI - thinking abotu how cyberspace
needs ot hit meatspace. MeetUp does it well and so does Dodgeball, but when I
hear about new services like StepUp.com - I get real excited.
The UPS store is across the street - and I stopped by and asked
them about AuctionDrop.com. They hadn't heard of it - yet. But they
liked the idea.
As John Battelle says:
I thought it'd be really cool if we started a website where local
merchants could list their wares, so folks could check to see if a
local business had what they were looking for before going down to the
store. We decided against the business, but I've remained fascinated
by this concept. It just seems to make sense, that at some point you
will be able to check into the inventory of your local stores to see
if what you want is there, and even reserve it or have it delivered to
you.
John's talking about a real-world solution who's day has
come.....
But I gotta wonder if subjects like this will get discussed at the
upcoming Web 2.0 conference.
Judging by the list of speakers - I doubt it. It's just more of the
same - sort of like the BlogOn conference.
It was ludicrous - Yahoo, AOL and CNet telling us about teh future.
Give me a break!
Sure - Cory will get up and holler aboput [insert complaint du
jour] and Danger Mouse
will hopefully keep it real - but I just gotta wonder what John
Doerr has to say - for the upteenth time. Or Mary Meeker. Sounds
exicting.
Anyway I'm sure the folks putting on Web 2.0 have the best
intentions, and they certainly got the buzzword du jour - by the
horns.
But without cutting edge entrepreneurs taking risks, what's the
point? And I don't mean T'rati, 6A or Craigslist. They've had their
day in the sun.
How 'bout a panel with developers who are broke, have kickass services and products and need funding? What a
concept.
But anyway - back to local services. The FEDEX and UPS stores
solved integration and aggregation issues for humans - for packaging
and shipping. The merger with Kinkos was brilliant for FEDEX. Kinkos
has been solving the copying/printing activity for humans for
years.
Software needs to solve real world problems and wrap it into
'activity based' solutions. By combining eVite functionality, with
WinAmp, Guestbook and Blogging features - coolio integrated parties
could be born - spontaneously. Sounds like a meatpsace solutionf or
Dodgeball.

Old wireless thinking
02/19/2004 10:00 AMThis
Washington Post story
about new wireless services is a great example of old telecom
thinking. Everything depends on the carriers, and when they
upgrade their networks. WiFi hotspots and other forms of
unlicensed connectivity remove that bottleneck -- along with the
additional charges the carriers want to load on for the whizbang new
services. That's why incorporating WiFi (and ultimately software
radios) into mobile handsets is such a significant development.

Europe did not straddle the equator, and because old traditions
dictated twelve hours for each day and each night, Europeans developed
a system of unequal "accordion-pleated hours that puffed up and
deflated" so as to ensure a dozen hours for each daytime and each
nighttime, winter and summer....
