If All Stories Were Written Like Science Fiction Stories. "Roger and Ann needed to meet Sergey in San Francisco. 'Should we take a train, or a steamship, or a plane?' asked Ann.

"For some, this year in science may be remembered more for its disasters than its successes. On January 16 the space shuttle Columbia launched to great fanfare, only to fail tragically on re-entry 16 days later. Then came news of the mysterious and lethal disease known as SARS, which sparked worldwide panic. And a midsummer blackout stretching from Ontario to New York served as a vivid reminder of how dependent we are on a fragile power grid.

Amid these calamities, however, a number of noteworthy achievements unfolded. China became the third nation to send people into space; paleontologists working in Ethiopia unearthed the oldest known members of our species; researchers applied virtual reality to colonoscopies and autopsies with stunning results. In addition, the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the structure of DNA and the centennial of powered flight served as springboards for reflection on the bigger picture of scientific progress."

Micorosft, AOL Discover That The
Internet Isn't TV
04/11/2005 11:42 PM
While some in the media and tech worlds are trying to turn the internet into television so they'd have more control, it appears that Microsoft and AOL are finally realizing that the two act quite differently. While both companies should have realized this years ago, it only cost them a few million dollars each to realize that there's absolutely no benefit to signing deals with Major League Baseball to allow MLB content to be streamed on their sites. Apparently both have cut short multi-million deals with MLB Online after realizing that most people simply went straight to the mlb.com site anyway, and there was almost no benefit at all to paying millions of dollars to have the identical content hosted within their own gardens since surfers don't distinguish. They know they can go wherever they want online, so why would they look for MLB content on AOL or MSN rather than just going straight to MLB? Apparently ESPN (owned by Disney) hasn't realized this, because they're about to make the same mistake and shell out millions to MLB for the privilege of mirroring the same content. Meanwhile, AOL is recognizing that their money and effort is better spent building up baseball fantasy league offerings where users actually participate, communicate and interact with each other (what the internet is good for!). Of course, what's unclear is whether or not the folks at MLB.com (the same people who said they owned all data and facts associated with MLB games) realize this, because if this sort of cash is part of their expected revenues going forward, someone may want to inform their poten tial investors of trouble ahead.
