For Whom the Gate Tolls?
For Whom the Gate Tolls?
06/24/2004 06:36 AMFor Whom the Gate Tolls? How and Why to Free the Refereed
Research Literature Online Through Author/Institution Self-Archiving,
Nowhttp://www
.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~harnad/Tp/resolution.htmABSTRACT:All refereed journals will soon be
available online; most of them already are. This means that anyone
will be able to access them from any networked desk-top. The
literature will all be
interconnected by
citation, author, and keyword/subject links, allowing for
unheard-of power and ease of access and navigability. Successive
drafts of pre-refereeing preprints will be linked to the official
refereed draft, as well as to any subsequent corrections, revisions,
updates, comments, responses, and underlying empirical databases, all
enhancing the self-correctiveness, interactivity and productivity of
scholarly and scientific research and communication in remarkable new
ways.
New scientometric indicators of digital impact are also
emerging (
http://opcit.eprints.org) to
chart the online course of knowledge. But there is still one last
frontier to cross before science reaches the optimal and the
inevitable: Just as there is no longer any need for research or
researchers to be constrained by the access-blocking restrictions of
paper distribution, there is no longer any need to be constrained by
the impact-blocking
financial fire-walls of
Subscription/Site-License/Pay-Per-View (S/L/P) tolls for this
give-away literature. Its author/researchers have always donated their
research reports for free (and its referee/researchers have refereed
for free), with the sole goal of maximizing their impact on subsequent
research (by accessing the eyes and minds of fellow-researchers,
present and future) and hence on society.
Generic (OAi-compliant)
software is now available free so that
institutions
can immediately create Eprint Archives in which their authors can
self-archive all their refereed papers for free for all forever (
http://www.eprints.org/). These
interoperable Open Archives (
http://www.openarchives.org)
will then be harvested into global, jointly searchable "virtual
archives" (e.g.,
http://arc.cs.odu.edu/). "
Scholarly Skywriting" in this
PostGutenberg Galaxy will be dramatically (and measurably)
more
interactive and productive, spawning its own new digital
metrics of productivity and impact, allowing for an
online "embryology of knowledge." This will be added to

Chicago's Cloud Gate
Chicago's Cloud Gate
08/02/2004 10:33 AM
Cloud Gate is Anish Kapoor's recently
unveiled artwork in Chicago's Millennium Park. The surreal sculpture
has caused quite a
stir and the media are pissing off Kapoor by
nicknaming it "The Bean." Former BB guestblogger
Jenn Shreve sent along links to
architectural writer Lynn Becker's photo essay of
The Bean Cloud Gate
under construction, an image
gallery
of the completed work, and a
Webcam site. Jenn says:
"Cloud Gate combines the blobular, organic shapes that
have been so prevalent in recent design with the reflective surfaces
common to Gehry's architectural work and turns the idea of sculpture
as something to be *looked at* on its ear, transforming the very
looking into an experiential, interactive encounter--all within the
public sphere. Plus it looks like an alien just layed a mega egg in
the middle of the city, which you gotta love."

Never trust gate agents...
Never trust gate agents...
01/26/2004 12:43 PMI remember learning this lesson in the past. NEVER TRUST GATE
AGENTS. My Lufthansa flight from Zurich to Munich was over an hour
delayed. My transfer was very short and I thought I would miss my
flight so I asked them to route me through Frankfurt. They told me all
flights out of Munich were late and I would be OK. We arrived in
Munich and we walked off the plane and were told to walk up an
escalator going the wrong direction. Then at the top of the escalator,
the door was locked and we had a pile-up. I heard cussing in a variety
of languages. It was funny. We got out and all of the displays for
connecting flights were blank.
I went to the gate, and of course the flight had left. I went to
the service counter and I got the "are you stupid?" look and was told
that I should take the next flight to Frankfurt.
Anyway, I better go board my next flight on my Lufthansa
hub-a-thon...

$30,000 Gate
Open Source For Corporations: Set Up A
$30,000 Gate
04/12/2004 02:10 PMWhile many in the tech industry always seem focused too much on
companies that produce technology, there isn't as much interest in how
everyday companies
use technology to improve their own bottom
line. There's a new "co-op" targeted at large companies that use
technology as a way to improve their business, but who are sick of
spending so much time and money on customized software for their
business. Think of it as open source software with a $30,000 gate.
Members of the co-op pay $30,000 per year to join, and then can
freely share software they've built with others
in the co-op. The benefits, in theory, are access to the other
software from other companies, and the fact that some others within
the co-op will contribute to and improve on software that's been
donated. Of course, companies
could just open source this
software (since it's obviously focused on software that isn't designed
to give the companies a competitive advantage). However, it seems
like they figure that the $30,000 gate will keep the level of the
software included higher and more focused on corporate uses. Also,
it's much more likely that companies will be willing to spend their
own engineering resources on applications that go into this program
than on fully open source projects - since many managers still have a
fear of open source. The article suggests that this could be
disruptive to companies that design custom applications for corporate
users. There is still a question of seeding the field with enough
applications, but it sounds like they've already convinced some large
companies (like Best Buy) to join and toss some of their corporate
software into the pot.

Tsunami account from Burning Man gate
manager
Tsunami account from Burning Man gate
manager
12/30/2004 07:20 PMXeni Jardin:
More than
115,000
are dead. Pearl, a gate manager for
Burning Man, was in Thailand when
the tsunami hit -- he survived.
This is Pearl. I am currently in Bangkok waiting for a flight I have
cajoled my way onto. I am one of the survivors. With only scratches,
briuses and infections I am fine. Everything I own (almost - a small
plastic jesus doll made it through!) is gone. My house was wiped out,
as were 3000 hotel rooms, around 600 other resident/vacation homes and
almost all the business' in the area.
Our house was 150 feet from the beach, that is THE hardest hit beach
in Thailand. As water rushed into our house and then ripped open the
second story wall, I leapt off our second story roof and swam and swam
and swam, riding the wave deep into the jungle, as it destroyed
building after building, ripping up trees and spinning diesel trucks
into the air. All this with me in the center of it clinging to
anything that floats and swimming to avoid the standing buildings or
trees that crushed and impaled many others. The wave deposited me, a
small swedish girl and a 60 foot poilice cruiser (medium sized steel
patrol boat - around 20 tons) 1 kilometer from the beach - in the
jungle.
For the next 5 hours i set up a triage center and cared for dead and
dying foreigners. Finally we got helicopters in, and I made my way
back towards the main town. I found Karin (my girlfriend) and
collapsed. We had both assumed each other dead as the destruction was
so massive. She had climbed a coconut tree, wrapped her arms and legs
and held on. The water kept pullng the tree and her under, but it and
she survived. That day I saw around 100 bodies. The next day, another
200, and the day we left there were cattle trucks full of rotting
corpses being taken to Phuket.
After days of no news, dwindling food and water - a group of divers
virtually kidnapped a driver to take us away. Every few hours someone
had created a rumor that another wave was coming, or there was a gas
explosion, or the Muslim rebels were attacking. None were true, but it
caused massive panic and killed many more people. We were already
under massive psychological strain, and this just made it insane. We
ran.
My town is gone. There are probably 2% of the original buildings in a
recognizable form. I am very lucky to even be making my way home. The
U.S. goverment offered me a phone call, a toothbrush, a paperback book
and a temporary passport. No hotel, no food, no flight home. I was
told that I could take out a loan if I could list three people who
would vouch for me at home. The process would only take a few days. I
was alone, injured (superficially - but I sure did look bad), no
possesions, no money and my government offered my a book.
I don't know who or what to acknowledge for my presence. That will
take a lot of soul-searching. I am certainly among the luckiest people
in Thailand right now. According to local news it looks like my town
had a SURVIVAL rate of 60%. Please think of what you value. Look
around, have you given a hug to someone recently? Anyone? If
everything you had were taken away, who would you turn too? In the end
it is each other, not the things, that make the world spin. I won't
ever forget that.
