Vancouver Winterbeach







Vancouver Winterbeach

Vancouver Winterbeach 12/17/2004 06:37 PM

Weekends here at 49°N latitude in the short-day months, if the sun shows you really need to get out into it. We favour the beach, in particular the Point Grey Foreshore, which is nicely rough and scrambly and uncrowded. Herewith some winterbeach pictures...

Nothing like launching a new standards effort the same day you leave town. Lots of confusion over "why the Open-media.org Wiki is closed".

So just to be clear.

There is no Wiki - there is nothing there - you;r enot missing anything. The original call for participation was to get help from folks so we COULD have something on teh Wiki and somethign to show.

Once that's there - THEN it'll be open - and we'll have a web site - too. So give us a few days - maybe a week.

Meanwhile I get to meet Roland Tanglao and Boris Mann (of Streamline) tonight - along with Stewart Butterfield, Caterina Fake and Jon Husband for dinner at some whacky Japanese place (Guu with Handsome.)

I think they think I'm some sort of Japan-o-phile. It's true - I used to be - back between 86'-95' - I did over 60 trips there.

Show - des neh! Wari Wari Wah.

Anyway - Vancouver is a gorgeous city, the weather is perfect and I'm nerding out on all sorts of new tools, opportunities and funding.

Digital technology is taking over radiology departments around the world, including those at the Vancouver General Hospital in Vancouver, British Colombia, Canada. I recently arranged a tour of the VGH Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) setup with Brenda Watson, this facility's PACS administrator. Two things became clear to me during this tour: PACS can be integrated throughout the institution, and it is a vital component of modern health care.

Vancouver tech businesses on special
this week: Flickr and SchemaSoft
03/22/2005 11:44 PM
Two Vancouver-based companies have made the news this week for being purchased by large technology firms. The first to announce was the purchase of Flickr by Yahoo. Flickr is the photo-sharing service we use to bring you many of our news story images and the random photos you see in the right margin. The company's blog states that, "It means that we'll no longer have to draw straws to see who gets paid... Flickr will be continuing on the path it's on -- to Flickr 1.0 and beyond. We'll be working with a bunch of people that Totally Get Flickr and want to preserve the community and the flavor of what is here."

Sure, that's kinda what Bungie said when Microsoft bought them.

The other acquisition was by Apple itself in its purchase of SchemaSoft. The software company, which currently has its headquarters in Vancouver, is best known for developing tools that aid various software in translating rival file formats.

I wonder why Apple would want to translate rival file formats.

SchemaSoft had also been a Visual Studio.NET Integration Partner since 1999, and worked with Microsoft to build parts of the .NET framework and the .NET services used by Microsoft itself.

I guess they won't be doing that so much anymore. Let the rumors fly.
