A Happy 20th Birthday to Microsoft Word

A Happy 20th Birthday to Microsoft Word
and Excel for Mac 01/08/2004 07:39 PM
Twenty years later, Microsoft continues to deliver on Gates' promise. At Macworld Conference and Expo 2004 in San Francisco this week, Microsoft announced plans to release Office 2004 for Mac and Virtual PC for Mac Version 7 in the first half of 2004. These new releases, and other products Microsoft makes for the Mac, are developed by an oasis of Mac-only developers in an otherwise Windows world at Microsoft: the Macintosh Business Unit (Mac BU). The Mac BU has made its mark in the industry, and at Microsoft, in large part by transforming four applications -- Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint and Microsoft Entourage -- into the most popular productivity suite for the Mac platform.

Lorcan Dempsey posted some astounding numbers to his blog yesterday. Emphasis below is mine. Prepare to be amazed.

WorldCat in Your Pocket

“WorldCat is our union catalogue of about 56 million bibliographic records, which represent approximately a billion holdings. It is about 50 gigabytes in MARC Communications (100+ gigabytes in XML) format and about 23 gigabytes compressed.

OCLC Research recently acquired a 24-node (48-cpu) Beowulf cluster with 96 Gigabytes of memory. According to my colleague Thom Hickey, whose team has been working on the machine, the cluster speeds up most bibliographic processing by about a factor of 30. This means that what might have taken a minute now takes two seconds, what might have taken an hour takes two minutes, what might have taken a month takes a day. For jobs that will fit entirely in memory (e.g. a `grep' of WorldCat) avoiding disk i/o gives another factor of about 20, reducing 1-hour jobs down to 6 seconds. We can 'frbrize< /a>' WorldCat on the cluster in about an hour.

WorldCat is also now more mobile. Thom has a 40 gig iPod which can accommodate WorldCat on its disk with room left for 5,000 song tracks. Now, you can't do much with the data on the iPod, but you can certainly carry it around. Again, it takes about an hour to get it on and off the iPod.” [Lorcan Dempsey’s Weblog, via It&rs quo;s All Good]

They’re all amazing numbers, but think about that iPod statement for a moment. What does it mean when a patron can carry around the whole, freaking WorldCat database? We’re not that far off from the introduction of the personal, mobile server in your pocket.

The issue was a misnamed Form variable. :)~ Saw it in the first 5 mintues this morning. A fresh head always helps.

.NET's code behind feature is great. I getting used to using it properly. One pet peeve. I learned VB purely from the Microsoft Documentation and a couple of books. The code samples are too complex in .Net's documentation. They need to provide smaller pieces of functionality. For example, to describe creating a web component, they try and take you through an entire application. Not very XPish of them. too much clutter. All I need for an example, is an example of the component and the component being embedded in the page. All the rest confuses the issue.

It’s like this: you get a slightly-scary physical symptom and you go and tell your doctor and she frowns and says “well, we better run some tests and make a date with a specialist”, and you go to the specialist and he works you over and looks at the tests and says “yeah, that’s a weird one, it happens sometimes, we don’t know why, it might happen again, it won’t hurt you, don’t worry about it.”

I got to Madrid okay yesterday, but, in the end, I couldn't get the modem connection to work properly... and in truth I didn't spend that much time with it (I fixed that a few minutes ago problems with a DHCP connection that required some fixed TCP/IP settings)...

... but now we're about to leave, so I'll be brief: Happy 2004 everyone!

PS: Digital life resumes tomorrow afternoon, after I get back to Dublin. :)

Happy B-Day Gary! 08/07/2004 07:21 PM

I didn't find out about Gary Turner's b-day through Ryze, some classmates knock-off or even an email. I found out about it through RSS, which (I assume) he posted initially at Flickr and which then ricocheted into his blog.

So first of all - congrats to Gary (hopefully I'll get to meet him Sept. 13th), and congrats to Stewart and the team at Ludicorp for evolving Flickr into what it is today.

At first glance I thought of Flickr a predominanly an IM your photo kind of RIA. But it's much more than that.

The Calendaring, the PhotoRSS, the Fotonotes, a more coming - I'm sure.

eSchol arship Editions. Like ebooks? Want something free, nonfiction,"scholarly", publicly accessible, and more recent than Gutenberg ? (Lately I'm on an Ancient History kick.) My problem with this "eScholarship" site is they try to make it hard to download a whole ebook to read offline. For one of those, for people who are interested in 20th-century political history-cum-theory that's never had much to do with any U.S. election, today I'm recommending the Platform.
