LIAM "THE INTERN" MCNULTY --
You're probably looking at that image on the right and
thinking, "...uhh...." Well, I'd like everyone to know that I
translated that image. Yes, I employed my superior Paint Shop Pro
skills, took out the Japanese text, and replaced it with the English
text that would fit in its place. And I did it without using any lens
flares.
This image was in Japanese because it's coming from Sharp, who has
for some reason decided they don't really like screwdrivers. As part
of Sharp's international "screw screws" campaign, they've developed
some "Easy Release Screws," which when heated to 100 degrees Celsius
(212 degrees Fahrenheit for normal people), will have a special washer
section expand, allowing for easy removal of the screw, (if you're a
robot with super-heated hands, of course).
One of the primary applications of the screws will be appliances;
recycling them requires dissasembly, which requires manual labor. With
these new screws, machines could easily take apart a TV in a tenth (as
Sharp estimates) of the time it takes a mere human.

06/21/2004 07:28 AMWithout getting too into speculation on 'why,' suffice it to say
that you can consider any dreams about PCs utilizing the new Intel
Grantsdale chipsets as a WiFi access point dashed, at least for now.
Although that was one of the major selling points of the new standard
-- PCI Express and DDR2 support are some others -- Intel has said
delays have prevented them from shipping the integrated WiFi support
for the chipset until Q4 of this year.

FCC screws America, adopts Broadcast
Flag, doom, gloom, armageddon
11/04/2003 07:12 PMWe've lost a round in the Broadcast Flag fight. The FCC today decided
that it didn't need to listen to the tens of thousands of Americans
that wrote to it, asking to have this terrible proposal set aside, and
instead adopted a rule proposed by billionaire movie studios whose
biggest problem is figuring out how to spend the riches they made off
the VCR after we saved their asses by telling them to get bent when
they tried to get the Betamax banned the last time around.
"The FCC today has taken a step that will shape the future
of television," said EFF Senior Intellectual Property
Attorney Fred von Lohmann. "Sadly, this represents a step in
the wrong direction, a step that will undermine innovation,
fair use, and competition."
"The broadcast flag rule forces manufacturers to remove
useful recording features from television products you can
buy today," said EFF Staff Technologist Seth Schoen. "The
FCC has decided that the way to get Americans to adopt
digital DTV is to make it cost more and do less."

PHP pages have a reputation of being more difficult (or at least
different) to SEO than static HTML pages. Here’s an overview of the
major issues encountered when trying to make PHP scripts rank well.
While this focuses on PHP much of it is still relevant to dynamic
pages in general
A major goal in getting search engines to treat your PHP created pages
well, is to make them look and act like static pages. If you have a
large site you can use Apache to fake static looking URLs, or, with a
smaller site, you can simply keep your GET variables to a useful
minimum. In either case, however, never allow a spider to see links
with different URL’s to the same content. If the URL is different,
the page should be too.

WebProNews: Getting Dynamic Pages
Indexed
01/03/2005 10:17 AMFrom
PHP Magazine:
Search Engine Optimization Specialists believe that spiders do not
read beyond the, ".php," on a URL. Therefore, dynamic pages that pass
a variable will be overlooked. A new article on webpronews.com
provides a few tips to ensure all your dynamic PHP pages are indexed.
The author elaborates on how to identify a PHP file that needs to be
converted to a static URL, and modify the way the server opens the
index.php file, when a variable is attached, so the spiders can read
them.

Blog and Forum automatic submission
scripts
12/19/2004 03:34 PMA note to the spammers and potential spammers that
come across this: if comment spam is so effective in boosting search
engine rankings, then why is this blog entry so much better ranked
than the submission scripts are? You’d think that if they were
even a little bit effective the makers of the tools would be able to
get a better ranking than I have.
Spammers are buying ever-more sophisticated tools to facilitate
their comment spamming. These tools can find comment scripts, bypass
many protection measures, and submit comments with alarming speed.
Perhaps we could make a dent in the comment spam by attacking these
tools. Find shareware and “webmaster script” sites where
these tools are sold, distributed, and marketed and get them shut
down. A search for “blog submission scripts” will turn up
lots of links to products (and now, I’m sure, this blog entry)
that are designed to spam comments. Track these down, contact the
places they’re marketed, like share*it and for the software to be
removed from their catalogs.
After finding a spam package that’s being sold on share*it, I
contacted them about removing it. I’ve removed the names and
links to the product, because I don’t want to make it any easier
for spammers to find products like this.
One of the pieces of software sold on your site is
designed to spam weblog comments and message boards. Product ID
[removed] is described and marketed as a blog spamming tool at
[removed]
Please don’t continue to add to the spam problem, and remove
this product from your service.
If bloggers are powerful enough to take down a TV news anchor,
I’d imagine that a concerted effort to choke off distribution
sources would be successful as well.

Boing Boing pal
Scott Beale informs us that our blog just won
Group Weblog of the Year at the
Bloggies. OMG! What a huge honor! Thank you, Bloggies. We honestly
didn't expect this, and we are deeply moved and grateful. There were
many other deserving blogs up for awards, backed by talented folks who
work very hard, and we raise our collective pirate-eye-patches in
their honor:
check 'em all
out. On behalf of my blog-mates
Cory Doctorow,
Mark Frauenfelder, and
David Pescovitz; our wise "band manager"
John Battelle; our sysadmin
par excellence Ken Snider; and the rest of the team and extended
family that makes Boing Boing possible -- a humble thank you. But most
of all, we are grateful to you, our readers, for wasting otherwise
productive time on our collective scrapbook of "wonderful things," and
for pointing us to even more of those wonderful and undiscovered
things each day. We're really sorry that we couldn't make it to
SXSW in person to accept the award,
but we hope you'll join us in celebrating in person tomorrow at
ETCON (
all five of us will be in the same place for the first time).
Boing Boing sprouted online a little over
five years ago, from paper zine roots planted by Mark Frauenfelder
and
Carla
Sinclair. It is a privilege to blog for you. With you, we look
forward to another adventurous year of link-discuss to come.
Link
Update: Holy crap! Reader Nathaneal Heasley
sez, "Not only did BB win best group ‘blog, it won “blog of the
year/best weblog overall†– congratulations!" For those keeping
track, this is the second year in a row Boing Boing has received these
two awards: Link to 2004, Link to 2005. Man. We're
speechless, and overwhelmed by your generosity.
