Worth a Look

Worth a Look 04/09/2005 06:22 PM

Aerial
Google Aerial Photos of Your Home:
I mentioned this already, but it's quite amazing. Use the map view to zero in on your home, or that of family or friends (or any other place) in North America (double-click to re-centre, then use the sliders in upper left) and then click on the 'satellite' button and see how much detail of the whole continent infrared satellite photos have captured. Then zoom back out in satellite mode and feel veeeery small. Dare you to stop at just one.

The Great Lie: A fascinating 27-minute film, free online, inspired by Daniel Quinn's book Ishmael.

The Real News: While the lazy-ass mainstream media have clogged the airwaves all week with the non-news of the late and dreadful pope's funeral, the marriage plans of British royalty, and various celebrities' trials, the deadly Marburg virus, an Ebola relative, has taken its largest and most devastating toll yet. Sooner or later one of these is going to teach us what The Tipping Point was really about. meanwhile the genocide in Darfur continues unabated, with the death toll of innocents reaching Rwanda proportions and an entire village being razed to the ground yesterday. Oh, and you can thank the NRA and the politicians in their back pockets for making it much easier for terrorists, even those on Al Qaida watch lists, to get AK-47s at the local store in your community.

"You know, Luke Skywalker was able to kill the Death Star with his beleaguered band of warriors, but I'm not sure that that's the model we should shoot for -- shoot the thing down the middle of the tube and hope it blows up the Death Star. We need to build our own answer to the Death Star.'' The beginning of the end for the Democratic Party, at least in name? (And what will take its place? Is the Republic turning into the Empire?)

Wal-Mart has launched a test of its new online music service. It differs from other music services by undercutting the competitions price of 99 cents and offering its wares for a remarkable 88 cents. With some services failing to meet sales expectations and Apple publicly admitting it makes almost no money from sales at its iTunes Music Store, it remains to be seen whether Wal-Mart's lower-priced music service will remain viable as the market heats up.

The "Little" Changes In Panther: Which
Ones Were Worth It?
11/12/2003 09:06 PM
As I went down the list of small things that had changed in Panther, I found myself repeatedly asking: "Was this change worth it?" That is, did the change improve the OS enough to justify the headache of having to revise my book? Happily, the answer was most often yes. But there were some resounding no votes as well. Here's a sampler of these smaller changes in Panther -- and my vote as to whether or not the change was worth making. By Ted Landau (MacFixIt via MyAppleMenu)
