Copyright Common Sense
Copyright Common Sense
03/06/2004 01:58 AMThe 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."

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 AMDavid 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.

Approach to Web Usability
Don’t Make Me Think: A Common Sense
Approach to Web Usability
03/29/2005 08:28 PM
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

FCC's Powell Talks Common Sense, but
Where's Policy?
07/14/2004 03:30 PMMichael 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.

05/24/2004 05:37 PM
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.

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.
