Where's Mahatma Gandhi? According to this TV ad produced by Young and
Rubicam Italia for an Italian telecom -- he's your new cellphone
wallpaper! He's on laptops! He's on gigantic plasma screen displays
affixed to the sides of buildings! Wait, now he's a ringtone! File
under "tasteless corporate appropriation of the dead."

CLI for noobies: everything's a file
CLI for noobies: everything's a file
11/06/2003 12:18 PMThis is the third and final file-related article in the Linux CLI for
noobies series. But before we remove our GUI water-wings and dive into
the CLI end of the pool to solve the final file mystery, we'll do a
quick recap of the series to-date to make sure everyone is
up-to-snuff. I also want to take this opportunity to give a shout-out
to our friends at Microsoft who are underlining the importance of
getting out of the GUI box occasionally and feeling the power of CLI
by deciding to "invent" a CLI for Leghorn. Or is that Foghorn?
Whatever, it is the name Microsoft is using for their new vaporware
OS. It's scheduled to launch in three years, so if the history of MS
operating system launches are any guide, it should be here by 2009.
And what a compliment that MS calls it "monad." Redmond touting the
benefits of a CLI? Amazing. Who knows, maybe their lead designers have
been among the noobies learning from this series all along.

ience-fair-projects.com/Today your teacher announced
that your school is going to have a science fair and students are
responsible for exhibiting their projects. What do you feel?
Enthusiastic? Despondent? Dreadful? Fearful? Excited?" This statement
opens the Super Science Fair Projects site. Actually, whether student
or parent, science fair projects, while great ways to get students
actively involved in learning the scientific method and problem
solving, can be tough assignments. This site may help you with one of
the hardest parts: coming up with an idea. The site does a great job
of walking the visitor through the steps needed to plan and implement
a project, from Choosing a Topic, the Scientific Method, and writing
the Project Report. There are even tips on displaying your project,
rehearsing, winning over judges, and what to expect the day of the
fair. This is definitely a great tool to tap into when planning a
science fair project.[From The NSDL Scout Report for Math,

Matrix online game hires real actors to

Matrix online game hires real actors to
play in-game characters
03/25/2005 06:33 AMCory Doctorow:
The Matrix Online (a massively multiplayer online game based on the
Matrix franchise) has hired a troupe of 20 actors to hang around in
game and in character, advancing the story and generally making it all
seem more disbelief-suspendingly real.
Since the close of the beta, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment
announced that it has employed a troupe of 20-odd people whose job it
will be to enact narrative scenarios in The Matrix Online live. These
people will assume the roles of popular characters, interact with
players, and generally move the stories in ways that only live
"actors" can. And though it appears that the story hasn't officially
commenced, a few players on the Method server were treated to a pretty
slick sample of it this afternoon: an extended pep-talk by none other
than Morpheus himself. (See the screenshots for proof.) But this is an
Out of the Box report, so here are our first impressions of the game
so far.

titled Proven: Windows is more secure than Linux. It was one of the
better-read pieces on the site this week. Four days after the article
was posted, David did a Google search and found more than half a dozen
sites had linked to the piece -- flattering. But at least three sites
posted all or a substantial portion of the piece on their own sites --
and that's a problem.

it's available as a 85Mb
MPEG2 torrent.
Jason did great for live TV, which is just about the most stressful
thing in the world. He seemed relaxed, though the host seemed a little
manic. I assume a producer was screaming in the host's ear to keep
Jason moving, which caused the host to cut Jason off whenever he
started sounding reflective. My favorite parts were the host violating
the Adsense terms of service by goading people into clicking his ad
links and the graphic "Blogging for Bling" in the background (because
clearly, Jason's only in it for the benjamins).

this is what we have to worry about our copyright law doing to the

this is in fact where our copyright law already is. Sigh....
