Google Adds Keyhole Satellite Support


Google Adds Keyhole Satellite Support 04/05/2005 02:37 AM
Just when you thought they were out of ingenious ideas, Google has just enabled Keyhole Satellite support for its popular 'Maps' and 'Local' services. The system allows you to zoom in on almost any spot in North America, and seamlessly transfer between a map or recent satellite view of the area.

"Have you ever wished you could see what someplace looked like before you got there? A house? A hotel? A freeway exit? We thought you might find it useful. Now when you type an address into Google Maps, you can click the 'Satellite' link and see a view of the area. You can zoom, move the view by dragging, and even resize the window just like the normal 'Maps' view. Looking for a new apartment or house? Type in an address you're considering, get a view from the air and, with a quick local search, find out if you can walk to your favorite Saturday morning cup of coffee."

Keyhole support will easily satisfy casual users who downloaded NASA WorldWind to see their house from space. Using Google Maps I was able to make out individual cars on the freeway, and even see my neighbor’s pool. (Slide and all) Performance is amazing considering the massive amount of data Google must have stored.

The Difference Between Online Content
And Broadcast Content


The Difference Between Online Content
And Broadcast Content
02/10/2004 02:46 PM
Major League Baseball made news last year for claim ing to own all in-progress game data - saying they were going to go after websites that reported what was happening at a game in real-time. It didn't matter that the law is pretty clear that you can't copyright facts - MLB believes that just presenting the data is a "rebroadcast" of the game. That said, I guess it's no surprise to hear that they now believe that web audio and video broadcasts of games should work the same way as television broadcasts with a content provider paying a huge upfront fee for the rights to the games, and then telling them they can make it back in ad revenue and subscription fees. Of course, the various internet sites they've approached with this plan have been laughing them out the door, and pointing out that they're not television stations, and they just want to provide something useful to their users - but aren't going to lose money to do so. While MLB has been at the forefront of offering streaming video and audio, it appears they still look on this as a broadcast medium, and not the interactive medium it actually is. They're doing their best to squeeze more money out of existing fans, rather than attract new fans, which is dangerous for the future of the sport. Not only do you anger your biggest fans, you also make it less likely that you're going to pick up new fans.

Webl0gs Content API


Webl0gs Content API 03/13/2003 01:00 PM

Don Box: Tim Ewald, Joe Beda, ChrisAn and I are trying to get the new format for exchanging items working.  Here's a preview of what it looks like now

This format has a number of interesting twists.  First, it is document literal XML which Anonymou s [presumably Gary Burd] doesn't particularly feel is vi compatible.  I'd bet that Don's example was entered in Emacs.  Note that the cited xhtml namespace incorrectly points to the same namespace as the blog content.

Like prior iterations from Don, the content is included literally, with no need for encoding.  This brings up two questions: if literal XML encoding is acceptable for the body, why is it all of a sudden unacceptable for headers?  And how should multi-line headers, like the short description (sometimes referred to excerpts) be encoded?

What is also interesting about this example is that it separates the metadata from the content.  While this surprised me, it does makes sense from a SOAP processing model perspective: the one element in the body it intended for the ultimate destination (in SOAP parlance, this is the default actor) and must be understood, the others may be handled by intermediaries and/or disregarded.

I'm not sure what the right split between data and metadata is in this instance.  The split that Don, et. al. proposes does have the disadvantage of precluding the ability to the functional equivalent of pingbacks.  [Note to Joe: can you put some anchor tags in your Comment API proposal?]

The site says: projectGrok is a beta portal CMS written in PHP and driven by RSS content. Using MYSQL tables to store headlines and text from a bank of RSS url's from your target niche, projectGrok automatically clusters entries of relavant and timely content. Or possibly it uses other people's content to try to get ads in articles returned by searches at Google. Hard to tell, but their...

I don't know what's happened around here, I just seem to have lost all interest in posting. Usually this urge (or lack of urge) passes, and it doesn't concern me. But perhaps I should now be concerned? Perhaps after 4.5 years, the megnut bug has gone? Well no matter, in order to hoist some content up here, I'm falling back on the old tried-and-true technique of just making a list of stuff. Herewith, a list of things I've enjoyed in the past few weeks, with links as appropriate:

Fighting Content Rot


Fighting Content Rot 07/11/2004 12:35 AM

If you manage a Web site for more than a few months, you run into problems of content rot. You'll be cruising through some old pages, and you'll find stuff that's...off, for one reason for another.

For instance, when this blog first started, I was anal-retentive about enclosing BLOCKQUOTEd text in quotes. It was a quote, after all. I would go through all the text I quoted, find double quotes, convert them to singles, then surround the entire thing in double-quotes before BLOCKQUOTEing the entire thing.

Now, this was very admirable of me, but when I started inviting others to blog with me, that whole concept broke down. Not everyone was doing it, and since it wasn't consistent, I didn't want to do it at all. However, there are still a thousand or so entries sitting out there with quotes around them.

Just recently, we started to standardize code fragments we post with by using the CODE tag and the Sim pleCode script. There remain, however, a hundred or so posts with code hacked up in BLOCKQUOTEs or DIVs or God knows what.

These aren't an isolated cases — there are styles that we've since abandoned, double-dashes that haven't been replaced with the — entity, etc. I try to nail these things as entries hit the site, but I miss some. On top of all this, throw in link rot — links that just 404 over time — and comments. Ugh, comments...

I try to stay on top of comment spam, but I'm sure some get through. Additionally, there are stupid comments that slip by (why do people insist on testing my comment form with 'fgfgfgfgfgf' all the time?), and comments that aren't relevant any longer — people complaining about bad links that I've fixed or mis-spellings that I've corrected.

Categorization is another thing. I added the Temple of Mac category at about entry #1,600. However, I didn't bother to go back through all the old entries and move all the Mac-related entries to the new category.

Mix all this together, and you have a site that doesn't really age well. I'm sure if I tooled through 100 old entries, I'd have something that needed to be fixed or corrected in at least 40 of them. How do you handle this? Gadgetopia is hurtling toward entry number 3,000, and that's a lot of volume.

I've often thought that I should create a script that just generated 10 random entries a day for me to review. Each morning, I'd get an email with 10 entries in it that I need to look over and touch up. But how do you make sure you get them all before you start getting duplicates? I suppose you could log them all in a table and then join the entries table against it to filter out entries that had already been covered. Like this:

SELECT e.entry_id FROM mt_entries e LEFT JOIN already_reviewed e ON e.entry_id = r.id WHERE r.id IS NULL ORDER BY RAND LIMIT 10

(I haven't tested this SQL, mind you.) Wrap some PHP around this, schedule it for the middle of the night, and you'd have 10 entries every morning that you can tune up. Perhaps I'd send 10 to myself, and three or so to each of the rest of the authors.

I think, however, I'm going to try something different. I'm on the verge of putting another sidebar on the front page called "One Year Ago Today" that lists the things were we talking about a year ago (see the OnThisDay plugin). I'll schedule an automatic rebuild of the front page every morning at 1:00 a.m., then check the year-old entries while I'm eating my Crunchy Corn Bran in the morning.

Maybe this will work, maybe it won't. If someone wants to take a stab at the mailer script (or if you already have), please post a link. If anyone else has any thoughts about content rot, let's hear them.

If you're one of the millions of Americans who once dialed up to the Internet through a service like AOL or MSN, you may have gotten attached to all the extra content—the software, games, music, and chat rooms—that was just a click away from the tidy portal your service provided. So when you switched to a broadband ISP, it was like the Wild West. The possibilities seemed endless, but you had to go out and actually track down all that newly accessible content. Well, you needn't give it all up.

Both America Online and Microsoft now offer broadband versions of their online services, and a similar service is available from Yahoo!. These services give you all the premium content you've come to expect from such online services, plus scads of additional audio, video, games, and other material that's best enjoyed over broadband.
