white-hot real estate prices. Perhaps that's why the concept of
virtual home ownership has captured the imagination of a

Hogzilla is real. And now, he's real
dead.
03/22/2005 05:00 PMXeni Jardin:
A team of National Geographic experts with nothing better to do
confirmed the existence of Georgia's monster hog, "Hogzilla."
They also noted the super swine didn't quite live up to the
1,000-pound, 12-foot hype generated when Hogzilla was caught on a farm
last summer and photographed hanging from a backhoe. Donning biohazard
suits to exhume the behemoth's smelly remains, the experts estimated
Hogzilla was probably only 7 1/2 to 8 feet long, and weighed about 800
pounds. The confirmation came in a documentary aired Sunday night on
the National Geographic Channel; it will be rebroadcast Wednesday and
Saturday.

The real war
The real war
07/09/2004 01:45 PMFunny how it goes: John Kerry seizes the spotlight by announcing his
running mate, and the Bush administration trots out Tom Ridge to warn
us of more terror attacks. This time, the warning comes with more
detail: Osama bin Laden himself, it seems, is plotting another attack
on the U.S. But President Bush may find that this timely reminder of
the original, genuine global terrorist threat backfires. Because every
time we hear the name Osama, we should remember whose policies have
left the al-Qaida leader at large.
Over the past year, I've made a point of repeatedly referring to
the U.S. invasion of Iraq as a strategic mistake. Put aside issues of
morality, of justification for the war, of possible deception by U.S.
leaders; just consider the issue on the global chessboard for a
moment. The next time you hear someone ask whether the U.S. is safer
or not as a result of the Bush administration's war on Saddam Hussein,
you can definitively answer "no." The evidence can be found in today's
report in
the New York Times that bin Laden and company intend to attack the
U.S. this year in a plot directed from their hideouts on the
Afghan/Pakistani border.
This should hardly come as a surprise. These, after all, are the
people who attacked the U.S. on 9/11. In the wake of that attack, the
U.S. invaded Afghanistan and deposed the Taliban regime that harbored
our enemies. But we never finished the job; we left bin Laden free,
we left Mullah Omar free, we let Afghanistan drift back into a state
of opium-growing, warlord-dominated semi-anarchy. We chose to invade
Iraq instead.
We now know a lot more about all the blindered, blinkered reasons
that led the Bush administration to this disastrous mistake. What I've
never understood, and still don't understand, is why the rest of the
U.S. government, and to some extent the U.S. media, have not furiously
and persistently asked the obvious, and still hanging, question: Why
didn't we go full-tilt after bin Laden in spring of 2002?
Would it have caused too many casualties? That didn't seem to be a
deterrent factor when it came to invading Iraq. Hundreds of American
soldiers have died, and are still dying, in Iraq; such a tragedy might
be more justifiable if we felt, as we cannot now, that the sacrifices
had a direct connection to the 9/11 attacks -- and to preventing their
sequel.
Was it out of deference to our shaky alliance with Pakistan? But
what good is that alliance if it does not help us capture our most
lethal enemies?
I understand that the mountainous border zone between Afghanistan
and Pakistan is treacherous terrain. It's historically isolated. Its
tribal inhabitants are suspicious of foreigners. But we didn't get to
choose our opponents; 9/11 chose them for us. What if we had invested
some portion of the blood and treasure squandered on the Iraqi
adventure on a full-bore campaign to "smoke out" bin Laden and rebuild
Afghanistan? How would the "War on Terror" look different today? And
would we still be facing these ominous warnings of al-Qaida
attacks?
I am not one for conspiracy theories. But when we can't answer
these questions, we're left to less savory speculations. What is
actually happening between the Bush administration and the Pakistani
government? (We've all now seen the reports that the Bush administration is asking Pakistan to round
up "high value targets" during the week of the Democratic convention.)
Why has finding bin Laden been so impossible? What could possibly be
higher-priority for the U.S. than apprehending those responsible for
9/11?
The supposed "grownups" in the Bush Administration have neither
answered these questions nor taken responsibility for their mistakes.
Our one chance of ever getting the full story is to vote them out and
give their replacements a chance to investigate.

04/20/2004 07:24 PMLAS VEGAS--RealNetworks CEO Rob Glaser on Tuesday brushed off a
recent rebuff from Apple Computer and called on Hollywood to keep new
digital technologies open for all to use.
Incompatible piracy prevention tools in new
digital entertainment services such as Apple's iTunes Music Store and
its iPod portable music player threaten to turn off consumers, he
said.
"It's kind of a Soviet model," said Glaser, referring to Apple's
closed environment in a remark that drew laugher from the audience
at the annual
National Association of Broadcasters conference here. "Taking
secure music off the PC is a morass of incompatibility. This is not
going to fly in the mainstream market."
RealNetworks has sought to position itself as a technology neutral
Switzerland amid an array of competing and incompatible formats from
Apple, Microsoft and others. RealNetworks' Helix multimedia software
supports all major formats, but it hasn't won much support for its own
technology among device makers.
The company had approached
Apple CEO Steve Jobs with a proposal to create a technical
alliance that would allow customers of RealNetworks' music service to
play songs on the iPod, to no avail. That could now force RealNetworks
into a deeper relationship with archenemy Microsoft, which has won
support for its technology on dozens of players and plans a major
upgrade later this summer.
Glaser also advised Hollywood to avoid being too cautious in
licensing its movies to Internet services, a mistake that could lead
to a repeat of the music industry's run-in with online piracy at the
hands of Napster and other peer-to-peer applications. Although legal
film-download services are available today, they are hampered by
limitations, including strict viewing rules for downloaded files, weak
access to the latest films, and skimpy film libraries online.
Still, Hollywood has been reluctant to license movies online
because of the failings of digital rights management technology to
protect their content from piracy, according to many industry
executives. Also, consumers are often unwilling to watch feature films
on a PC.
Glaser said that the future of new media and advertising is
personalization.
As a result, he played up a new partnership with Google, the No. 1
search engine on the Internet. Under the agreement, RealNetworks'
RealPlayer 10, the company's latest audio and video playback service,
will bundle in Google's search toolbar.
Glaser highlighted the growth and success of paid search, or
contextual ads, which accompany Google search results. The market has
taken off because sponsored search listings are highly targeted and
personalized to what Web surfers are looking for, he said.
Glaser pointed to research that showed that in 2004, ad sales from
paid search will account for about 30 percent of the $8 billion online
advertising market. The Google-Real partnership will likely help
RealNetworks capture some of those ad dollars.
[CNET News.com]
As much as I've had bad past experiences with Glaser and as much as
I think Real is toast - I completely agree with the guy.
Now the questions is: "what happens next?"

Real vs Apple
08/18/2004 08:29 AMRealNetworks have upped the stakes in the growing war between itself
and Apple.
The launch of the
Freedom of Music Choice
website (complete with a logo featuring the iPod as a padlock)
pulls no punches, and directly attacks Apple’s refusal to open
up it’s FairPlay
DRM used on the iPod.
It’s not enough to denounce crime and lock up criminals, say the
social scientists. We must consider the root causes of crime. Which
brings us to Apple Computer Inc., which is encouraging people to steal
digital music files, and undermining its own success to boot.
This vitriol follows the trading of blows last week over Real’s
Harmony technology — a crude hack which allows songs purchased
from the Real Music Store to be played on an iPod.
Apple’s
response was predictably angry and swift :
We strongly caution Real and their customers that when we update our
iPod software from time to time it is highly likely that Real’s
Harmony technology will cease to work with current and future iPods.
It seems obvious to me that Real have lost considerable market share
since the success of iTunes Music Store and the iPod, and are playing
their last card — portraying itself as the ‘voice of the
public’ and ‘champion of free choice’.
You could understand this if were actually true — but it’s
100% PR bullshit, and only serves to make them look increasingly
desperate. The fact is Apple make far superior software and offer a
far superior experience to Real. That is why people are choosing Apple
over Real, no other reason.

convincing picture of who we think we are or who we'd like to be.
(Halley puts it a lot better than this.) I guess I'd agree, except
that I think the same is true of the full spectrum of human
relationships. We aren't simple objects defined in their apartness. We
are our relationships. We present ourselves and comport ourselves with
a sense of how we look to others. We are social selves and Rorty

IPv6 Gets Real
07/21/2004 10:47 AMLooks like IPv6 is going from being that funny option in the
network stack that nobody uses to being a real live protocol. Reuters
has the story.
Vinton Cerf of the Internet Corp. for Assigned Names and
Numbers (ICANN) said the next-generation protocol, IPv6, had been
added to its root server systems, making it possible for every person
or device to have an Internet protocol address.
[...]
"This is a big, big step," Cerf said, speaking on sidelines of ICANN's
annual conference held in the Malaysian capital.
[...]
Cerf said about two-thirds of the 4.3 billion Internet addresses
currently available were used up, adding that IPv6 could magnify
capacity by some "25,000 trillion trillion times".
From reading ICANN's pre
ss release, it looks like they're starting with the .kr (Korea)
and .jp (Japan) TLD's. I imagine it will be a while before they get
confident enough to roll it out for .com, .net, and .org.
