Product Review: Ergonomic Keyboards that Break an Old Rule
“A decade ago, there was much talk about keyboards causing
repetitive motion injuries. Attention was focused on ergonomics and
leading manufacturers including Microsoft introduced special curved
and split keyboards. If you’re like me, though, those keyboards
didn’t solve the problem. Months ago, I started getting tingling
and numbness is my lower left arm, probably the result of typing. It
wasn’t painful, but the odd feeling occasionally made it hard to
sleep. The phenomenon isn’t uncommon…
CleanTV - Not just clean, Utah Clean!02/10/2004 02:53 AM CleanTV (currently in the early stages of construction) is th
is guy's new web site. It will log instances of
"offensive" material shown on broadcast television,
enable offended TV viewers to send email
directly to local station owners and management, and/or send
emails to the station's local and national advertisers. What happens
to advertisers who ignore the email campaign and continue to sponsor
shows that CleanTV deems offensive? - "If an advertiser
continues to support offensive advertising, they will be targeted for
local and national boycott. On the local level, newspapers are
notified of the boycott and CleanTV volunteers will demonstrate at the
advertiser's place of business until the advertiser decides to rescind
their support of offensive programming."
Xoomle improvements
Xoomle improvements08/05/2002 10:45 PM eclectic: Xoomle ... is a very nice RESTful interface to the Google
API... Paul Prescod provided some constructive comments and
suggestions though. Paul's top comment is that the characters
"method=" in the URL (note: not the design, but the characters
themselves) make it less than perfect case study in REST. Weird.
[Sam Ruby]
I think Paul's comments are really helpful. The 3 values for "method="
provide 3 totally different services, each requiring different
parameters. It makes a lot of sense to make 3 URLs for each service.

Jaguar and Safari improvements03/13/2003 10:21 AM Here's a few Apple updates I've noticed since I've been away :
Mac OS
X 10.2.4 : This update to Jaguar delivers enhancements to Address
Book, Classic compatibility, Finder, FireWire, Graphics, OpenGL, and
Sherlock. It also includes AFP and Windows file service improvements,
as well as audio, disc recording, graphics, and printing improvements.
It seems to be a pretty solid upgrade, but best browse the user comments at apple.slashdot.org also.
Safari (Beta 6) : The
latest update to Safari improves the performance of loading web pages
and Flash content, adds support for XML, increases standards
conformance and delivers improved application stability. The update
also enables access to web sites that offer self-signed security
certificates. No tabbed browsing though ;-) User comments at apple.slashdot.org.
Future MSDN Improvements
Future MSDN Improvements04/25/2004 08:35 PM -Improved relevance.
Our primary investment will be in making the results from your queries
better match what you wanted. We're collaborating with MS-Research and
Microsoft.com on several strategies coming online this year.
-Technology & language filtering.
Never want to see Windows CE results? Want to limit your searches to
VB? We are working on mining the metadata inside the MSDN Library to
enable searches filtered by products, languages, and more.
-Improved API lookup.
We'll be adding extra weight to search results if a query matches the
same keyword that the Visual Studio F1 feature uses to lookup APIs.
Dave points to the Gigablast search engine. I put in
my name and got bad results -- a top link pointing to a
long-defunct URL of my blog. The other search engines get this right,
as far as I know.
However, there are some very nice touches, including a link to the Web Archive from each result. That's
a great idea.
Keep up the competition, search folks. Don't let Google own
everything. One monopoly in
technology is more than enough -- and we're suffering badly from its
pernicious effects.
