Blowback: The Cost And Consequences of
American Empire plus War And Conflict In
The Post-Cold War, Post-9/11 Era 03/13/2003 10:25 AM
Chalmers Johnson is an provocative proponent of the American Empire theory, indeed. Here are excerpts from his Blow Back: The Cost And Consequences of American Empire

I heard Johnson interviewed on Episode II, War And Conflict In The Post-Cold War, Post-9/11 Era of The Whole Wide World

The Cold War and its central conflict - the physical and ideological battles between the United States, the Soviet Union and their proxy states - imposed a certain logic and consistency on the world. Take that away and add the bloody wars in the Balkans, Africa and the Middle East in the ‘90s as well as the terror attacks and warnings of more recent times and you get a very confused picture of a world at war. Is this breaking storm in Iraq about oil, democracy, freedom, empire, culture, water, diamonds, modernizing Islam or nation building in the Middle East? Some, one or all of these things?

It was an excellent program and well worth your listen, either by RA now or mp3 later. (From listening to the radio)

Newsgator 2.0

Newsgator 2.0 01/09/2004 09:58 PM

Press Release - NewsGator Online Services...: I was one of the beta testers for Newsgator 2.0. I can finally vouch that it's a stunning piece of work, since I've been under an NDA for the last two months.

In addition to launching NewsGator 2.0 at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas this week, NewsGator Technologies announced its new NewsGator Online Services offerings to users today.

If you have an RSS aggregator at work and home, and you get irritated at having to read everything twice, then this is your tool. It can sync two versions of itself via a central server. Plus, Newsgator Online Services offers Web-based RSS aggregation for when you're on the road.

I use Thunderbird for email, but I still have Outlook open because I can't give up Newsgator.

NewsGator 2.0 Released

NewsGator 2.0 Released 01/19/2004 03:59 AM

We're pleased to annouce the release of NewsGator 2.0! This release includes tight integration with NewsGator Online Services (providing synchronization between multiple machines, web and mobile editions, and much more), support for custom RSS extensions, a new extension API, and many other new features and fixes. We strongly recommend all NewsGator users install this release.

This is a free upgrade for licensed users of 1.x versions.

NewsGator and Security

NewsGator and Security 03/13/2003 10:23 AM
There have been a couple of posts (here and here) talking about alleged security vulnerabilities in NewsGator and other news aggregators. The first post supposedly describes a way to have a news post contain an Outlook "virus" that will send an email to people in your address book; the second shows a RSS file containing script which could be annoying or malicious to a user.

As part of our commitment to our customers, we are addressing these concerns here immediately before they get blown out of proportion.

First, regarding the "virus" which could send messages to people in your address list. The technique described in the post, with code similar to that demonstrated, will not actually work on default installations of NewsGator with Outlook 2000 or 2002. In order to make the code work, the user must have edited the applicable security zone settings to allow scripting of ActiveX controls not marked as safe. If this setting was indeed changed, the vulnerability would exist not just in NewsGator/Outlook, but for browsing in Internet Explorer as well.

Second, regarding the demonstrated ways to execute javascript code placed within a news post. The javascript in question will not execute at all when running NewsGator on Outlook 2002 with the default settings. When running NewsGator on Outlook 2000, the javascript may indeed execute, just as it would for HTML e-mail messages. It is easy to correct this if you wish; you simply need to change the IE security zone used for HTML messages in Outlook 2000 to be the "Restricted" zone. For help with this, refer to this article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base. By default, Outlook 2002 displays all HTML messages in the Restricted zone, so it is not vulnerable to this problem.

To summarize, NewsGator running on Outlook 2002 is not vulnerable to any of the problems mentioned. With Outlook 2000, it is easy to change settings to eliminate any possible problems as well.

NewsGator 1.3 Released

NewsGator 1.3 Released 10/28/2003 11:09 PM

This is a major update; Outlook folder integration is tighter than ever, NNTP newsgroups are now supported, offline posting support is available, and numerous other features and fixes are included in this release. We strongly recommend that all NewsGator users update to this release.

This is a free upgrade for licensed users of 1.x versions.

NewsGator: Beyond the Aggregator

NewsGator: Beyond the Aggregator 07/03/2004 09:23 PM

Why Did We Invest in NewsGator?: Here's a post from a venture capitalist about why he invested in NewsGator.

The misperception is that NewsGator is only an Outlook plug-in. While the most popular product from NewsGator is currently their Outlook-based aggregator, what really turned us on when we dug into NewsGator as a potential investment is NewsGator Online Services (NGOS).

Greg Reinacker's vision is much broader than simply an RSS aggregator - his goal is to provide RSS content on any device. NewsGator currently provides clients for Outlook, the Web, POP email, mobile devices (web-based and wap), and Microsoft Media Center (how cool is it to get an RSS feed on your TV?).

He makes a good point — NewsGator has really extended past Outlook. They started with that, and the Outlook plug-in is what they're most well-known for, but I just wrapped up 30 days with Newsgator Online Services (NOS), and I can tell you that they've deftly transcended the aggregator.

While working with NOS, I got the...feeling, that news and information was just out there, everywhere, and it was up to me how I wanted to receive it. They have options to push information to about any device, on any platform. I've never felt more saturated by news in my life than during those 30 days.

Information was everywhere — so much so that I stopped thinking in terms of this aggreagtor or that protocol. I was just swimming in information, and the method in which I chose to receive it was almost incidental. Petty, even.
