Flash Memory: Evolution or Revolution
03/20/2003 01:05 PMWhen AMD released its MirrorBit flash technology architecture in late
spring, the
company claimed it had ignited a revolution in the memory industry
with a product that
managed not to compromise endurance, performance or reliability.
MirrorBit differs
markedly from Intel's StrataFlash, first released in 1997.

Franchising Free: SalemOpen.Net Installs

06/04/2004 01:46 PMSalemOpen.Net will launch shortly using Michael Oh's model--and
support--for establishing commercially supported free Internet access
over Wi-Fi: In an interview last week, Michael Oh outlined the new
network in Salem, Mass., that will launch in the next few days. The
network involves the sponsorship of a local bank and participation by
a number of merchants. Oh says that SalemOpen.Net is a proof of
concept that the Newbury Street model he developed for putting Wi-Fi
access hand in hand with business development can be "franchised."
"It's incredible to actually be on a street and drive around for three
hours and find 2,200 access points, and see that only 12 of them are
public, free or paid," Oh said. The commercial free networks that Oh
has helped build take advantage of the growing necessity of Internet
access for people in all walks of life and the built-in nature of
Wi-Fi in virtually all new laptops. SalemOpen.Net's motivation comes
in part from the desire of the 40,000-person town to have a year-round
economy not based in the run-up to Halloween, and events that recall
witch trials over 300 years ago. Oh said that some residents live
there because of the mystique--"24 by 7 Goths"--but the community at
large "would like to say we're more than just a Halloween tourist
attraction or a place to go during the summer to see some interesting
witch museums." Oh said, the network is "a way of trying to attract
businesses to Salem Center, to attract more people from the fringes of
that area." He noted, "Literally in that area, there's nothing like
that." The nearby North Shore Mall has an Apple Store with free Wi-Fi,
but he said that's practically the only open access. In an email
follow-up, Oh noted that a small project in nearby Portsmouth, New
Hampshire, to offer free Wi-Fi illustrated his point about the
attactiveness of wireless access. "Free WiFi can give an entire area
an advantage over the 'big city'--cheaper parking, lower rent, and
free Wi-Fi," he wrote. "I think that's an important trend--and you
could see free Wi-Fi gelling more effectively in small towns first,
even though there are more users for it in cities." This was the logic
that drove Monet Mobile to offer high-speed cellular wireless data
service in more rural areas unserved or underserved by wired DSL and
cable broadband. The company filed for bankruptcy in April after...

Susan Crawford quotes an essay by John W. Patterson called
"Thermodynamics and Evolution", part of a volume of scientific
responses to creationism. She ties it neatly to Internet governance at
the end.
Susan Crawford
Here
is Patterson's conclusion:
"In reality, ... the 'uphill' processes associated with life not
only are compatible with entropy and the second law, but actually
depend on them for the energy fluxes off of which they feed. Numerous
other kinds of backward processes in simpler, nonliving systems also
proceed in this way, and do so in complete accord with the second
law."
This all ties to internet governance. A sufficiently open net will
tend towards order, not chaos -- and will do so on its own, with no
external pilot.
Just reading the conclusion, you might
think she's making a techno-utopian quantum leap, but the idea of open
systems allowing evolution and order and seeming to defy entropy is
any interesting one. Order can emerge in a system with increasing
chaos around it if the system is open. I don't think being merely open
guarantees that it will tend towards order. On the other hand, closed
systems will tend to become disordered and the best way to maintain
order in such a system is to move very slowly...

history of Apple's desktop interfaces, starting with early Lisa

up the interface with newfangled gizmos like the "mouse", and

What's most interesting is that there are a couple of concepts in
the early Lisa sketches that didn't see the light of day until OS X.

PHP has come a long way (baby) since it's early PHP/FI days, when
Rasmus was just throwing together some scripts to help with his
homepage. It evolved and grew, thanks to some larger Open Source
players, and became respected as a scripting language all it's own.
When PHP 3.0 rolled around, major things started happening, and the
world got its first taste of what would become one of the most popular
Apache modules to date - and this article has
the rest of the story.
