Copyright Common Sense


Copyright Common Sense 03/06/2004 01:58 AM
The Cato Institute's Adam Thierer's makes good sense in this essay on how to draw lines in the copyright debate. Key quote:
"But how we call in the cops and who the IP cops are makes a big difference. In particular, we shouldn’t expect Congress or regulatory agencies to legislate on every problem that creeps up or ban or mandate specific technological solutions in an attempt to solve IP debates. But when certain parties are egregiously violating the rights of copyright holders, they are certainly justified in seeking redress in the courts."

Barney is a 6 year old boy whose dad bought the .co.uk domain of his name so he can use it when he's older. Barney is a 60 million year old malevolent purple dinosaur and wants "his" domain name back. Hilarity, thinly vieled contempt and common-sense ensues .. (via NTK)

School Bans Common Sense


School Bans Common Sense 03/08/2004 11:04 PM
Bellev ue school bans hats, hoods... In order to curtail unproven gang activity, Interlake High School has banned baseball caps, and the wearing of hoods, stemming from alleged gang involvement on the part of a few students. The faculty "believes" there to be gang actvity, and we all know that gangs require hooded-sweatshirt / ballcap uniforms, or you're out... Gang members can usually be singled out due to their poor fashion taste, but it has nothing to do with how they joined. This must be more of that freedom we North Americans seems to endorse so much...

Common(s) Sense of Thomas Paine


Common(s) Sense of Thomas Paine 01/11/2004 07:56 AM
David Richards writes, and evilsite.org says, that Thomas Paine assigned the copyright to "Common Sense" to the Continental Congress. Richards speculates he was the first to do so, and should thus be a model for Creative Commons. So at first I thought that was right (the model part; I don't know enough about the history part). But here's why I don't think so now: We should distinguish in this debate between altruistic copyright policy, and reasonable copyright policy. I'm all for altruism, and we certainly don't have enough out there. But Creative Commons is not about altruism; it is about reasonableness. CC says balance, not self-less. It is trying to find a way to restate what balance there should be "in the digital world" (how I hate that phrase). Voluntarily, no doubt, but not self-lessly. Self-lessness, and sainthood, like free and open source software, have enough models out there. CC is not yet another.

My rating: 4 out of 5

The title of the book is its chief personal design premise. All of the tips, techniques, and examples presented revolve around users being able to surf merrily through a well-designed site with minimal cognitive strain. Readers will quickly come to agree with many of the book's assumptions, such as "We don't read pages--we scan them" and "We don't figure out how things work--we muddle through." Coming to grips with such hard facts sets the stage for Web design that then produces topnotch sites. This is the type of book you can blow through in a couple of evenings. But despite its conciseness, it will give you an expert's ability to judge Web design.


FCC's Powell Talks Common Sense, but
Where's Policy?


FCC's Powell Talks Common Sense, but
Where's Policy?
07/14/2004 03:30 PM
Michael Powell, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, talked a great game last night at the Al ways On conference at Stanford. He spoke out for an open architecture on the Net; indicated that the broadcast "indecency" rules are at best questionable from a Constitutional and logical framework, and generally impressed a crowd of technologists and tech constituents. I'll be happier when his views translate more firmly into FCC policies, and when Congress discovers that the distinction between media are growing far too hazy for the old rules. But this is genuine progress.
  • There's lots of blogging going on here. My older, wiser brother Steve is part of the ZDNet team that's posting here.
  • Oh, here's Powell's al leged blog, which has been drawing attention. I say "alleged" because while I think it's great that he's posting and listening -- two of the major components of blogging -- this neither looks nor feels like the real thing. Still, it's interesting, and the comments he's drawn from all kinds of folks are terrific.

    The latest study on spam trends appears to show that financial spam is outpacing pharmaceutical spam - though, honestly, so much of both is coming out that it's really hard to imagine that this matters at all. Meanwhile, it seems that porn spam is increasingly less interesting to spammers as the numbers have been on a noticeable decline for quite some time. No matter what, though, it appears that CAN-SPAM has done absolutely nothing to slow down the amount of spam sent.

    I am now getting 2,000+ spams a day. There are 1,440 minutes in a day The rate of incoming spams is therefore getting close to the interval it takes me to check my email and dispose of a single spam: By the time I'm done checking, more spam has arrived. That is the point at which the spam droplets form a continuous stream. And that is the point at which no interval of my life will ever be spam-free again....

    I talked with Dan Kreiss the other day. He's working on a Master's at Stanford and is writing his thesis on blogging. He's posted notes from our discussion on his blog. It was a lively conversation, and gives you a bit of an idea where my thinking is these days. The best part of talking with him was discussing what I'm interested in doing next. The answer of course is lots of things! But in particular I got all jazzed up again about some ideas I've been thinking about for a while. When you've just finished a job, and you're spending you days alone at home, getting jazzed up about ideas is a really great thing.

    Greed and digital convergence often go hand in hand.

    Many a deal has been f*cked up by some greedy (usually white male) as**hole who thinks he can't just stick to his business model and evolve into digital convergence - organically (read: later.)

    No this guy - needs to try and take it all - NOW. He's gonna make his play, and dam the logic of the alliances, the virtue of doing it right and smart - we want IT ALL - NOW.

    That seems to be what Mike Ramsey at TiVO did.

    Instead of going into a deal with COMCAST, which was critical - given the fact that PVRs are becoming a commodity and Microsoft and Digeo are on their asses. TiVO turned down a deal with COMCAST supposedly in favor of their "digital convergence/Home LAN" play. This is why they bought Strangeberry.

    But what seems strange to me is why couldn't TiVO have lciensed it software to COMCAST and STILL do their Home LAN play?

    Why can't they organically grow into a Home LAN play, evolving their brand into something that means - cool, compelling experience that works?

    By turning down the COMCAST deal, Mike Ramsey got kicked out and now they'll probably never ship the Strangeberry V3 - and they'll just tube - as COMCAST will hook up with MS and squash them.

    Oh well.

    Here's Peter Rojas' engadget report....

    Ok, now we understand why TiVo CEO Michael Ramsay was “promoted” out of his job last week. You know how people have been telling TiVo how the only way they’re going to survive would be to convince some a cable company to license their digital video recorder software for use on set-top boxes?

    Yeah, well according to the New York Times last summer they were about to score a big deal with Comcast to do precisely this, that is until Ramsay pulled the plug at the last moment because he was convinced TiVo wasn’t getting paid enough money or given enough control over the service.

    We won’t second guess his decision, since we don’t know the exact terms of the deal (though apparently they were pretty bad), but you know what, TiVo is sort of in a life-or-death situation right now and might have to take what it can get if it wants to stick around. The company is still not turning a profit, they’re facing increased competition from all sides (from cable companies with their generic DVR-capable set top boxes, Digeo’s Moxi, and Microsoft’s Media Center OS, not to mention stuff like MythTV and Beyond TV), and having deal like this in place would have been especially valuable in the wake of their recent break up with DirecTV. Now it’s Microsoft and Digeo who are testing their software with Comcast and TiVo that’s being left out in the cold. Ramsay says his strategy was to make an end-run around the cable companies and focus on turning the TiVo into a digital entertainment hub (i.e. “convergence”, i.e. the same thing everyone else claims to be working on), but now he’s out (at least as CEO, he’s staying on as chairman) and it’s unlikely that whoever succeeds him will have the luxury of grand visions: right now they’re going to have to focus on ensuring that TiVo is still in business a year from now.

    [engadget]

    This is important stuff. TiVO defined PVRs and now they're about to lose the market. Same thing is happening to NetFlix as we speak.

    Is it lack of patents and bank account that causes this to happen or it something more about execution and staying smart. It's not good enough to be first and be really smart about your product offering or compelling experience.

    It's about staying smart and working with others. Not being too greedy and keeping your eye on the end-user's experience - not your bank account. Or shall I say your future bank account.

    Yah gotta follow DROC (do not run-out-of cash.) But you also can't be too greedy. TiVO knew that COMCAST knew that DirecTV was blowing off TiVO. TiVo should have known that MS was sucking up to COMCAST - HARD.

    Why was COMCAST trying to do a deal with TiVO? Cause TiVO has the best product and experience. But they weren't able to come to a deal. Hmmmmmm.

    Sounds like Apple to me.
