Omigod. I completely forgot my weblogging birthday on Saturday. This site has now been going for a full four years and two days. Four years and two days of almost daily pre-fabricated, disposable weblogging goodness. That's one thousand four hundred and sixty three days since I started weblogging. Worse still - that's three thousand nine hundred and forty nine posts. An average of 2.7 posts per day. Dear God. When will it end? Will I never tire of writing this crap? In twenty years, will I have an Established 1999 sign out front? Will I be in total information capturing mode as I'm shoved into an old folks home? Will there be a bloody keyboard in my grave? Will the first thing that happens in Atheist Heaven be that some crotchetty old bastard with a toothless smile hands me an ethereal laptop with spiritual-fidelity wireless soulnet access before demanding that I write something pithy about halos?

Why Established Businesses Screw Up

Why Established Businesses Screw Up 11/03/2003 08:23 PM
I've been a longtime fan of Clayton Christensen's work and recommend it to plenty of people - though, it seems like many people misinterpret his writings. Still, he's now come out with a new book, The Innovator's Solution, which tries to follow the work of his original book describing why successful companies miss out on disruptive technologies. Fast Company is running an article summarizing Christensen's thoughts on why successful companies screw up, and how to prevent that from happening. He comes down especially hard on business school teachings (despite the fact that he teaches at a business school), saying that they're so focused on case studies of successful businesses, it creates managers who believe if they just mimic success stories, everything will turn out fine. While I agree with almost every one of his business points, I'm not sure I completely agree with this one. It seems that most business schools these days claim to be believers in Christensen's ideas - but they just do an awful job teaching them. People end up with the 30 second version of his ideas and miss the real meat. Still, the Fast Company piece does a pretty good job summarizing the overall thesis that basing plans on past data can be dangerous, since it ignores future innovations. Also, he points out that successful companies are drawn to higher end offerings where the margins increase, forgetting that they're opening up the bottom of the market for newer, more innovative and nimble suppliers to attack. In fact, Christensen has decided to put his money where his mouth is, and has started his own consulting firm that is designed to hit back against the McKinsey's and BCG's of the world by offering a much lower pricepoint for services.

Fund established to help Iraqi orphans

Fund established to help Iraqi orphans 03/24/2005 08:15 PM
Mark Frauenfelder: In January, I wrote about the tragic shooting of an Iraqi family by US soldiers that orphaned nine children. Today, a Boing Boing reader named J. Tony Smith emailed me with some good news. The photographer of the heart-stirring images reports that a fund has been established to benefit the children. The following is from an email that the photographer sent to Tony and other people who were moved by the photos.

I'm Chris Hondros, a photographer for Getty Images, and if you're getting this email you wrote me in the aftermath of the terrible incident I photographed in Tal Afar, Iraq, in January.  If you recall, five children were orphaned by U.S. troops who mistakenly shot up their car when they approached a foot patrol.  The pictures of the incident have run all over the world and already done much to address the issue of checkpoint shootings in Iraq. 

Many of you expressed a desire to help the family; I'm happy to report that a website for donations has now been set up, www.hassanfamilyfund.org.&# 160;  Money donated to the cause will first go to arranging medical care for Racan, a boy in the car who's spinal column was damaged by one of the bullets and will never walk again unless treatment outside of Iraq is arranged for him.  (Humanitarian workers and others in Iraq are working toward this now.)  Excess funds will go to the extended family (the Hassan's had nine children) and to civil projects in Tal Afar itself, most likely a school built to commemorate the deaths. Any help you can give will be appreciated.

New Group Established to Carry On SATA
Spec Development 09/11/2004 03:58 AM
Dedicated to sustaining the quality, integrity and dissemination of Serial ATA technology, 40 leading computer component and peripheral companies announced today the formation of the Serial ATA International Organization (SATA-IO).

The new organization builds on a long heritage of effective Serial ATA (SATA) organizations starting with SATA 1.0 in early 2000, to SATA II in 2002 and now SATA-IO. The working group's transition to SATA-IO, a formal industry association, indicates the member companies' long-term commitment to continue delivering technology and high-quality specifications that meet the needs of a rapidly changing market.

The current SATA-IO technology roadmap includes enabling the 3Gb/s technology defined in the newest SATA spec, which was released in July. The group also plans to expand membership to include additional optical storage vendors, storage controller and hard drive vendors, system builders, storage semiconductor designers and computer technology designers.

Up Against Established Products 11/19/2003 11:36 PM
The iSight's overall picture quality was noticeably better than that of the other cameras. It almost always provided a sharp, crisply defined image and did the best job with movement and backlighting. The Pyro slightly edged out the iBot in image quality, but the two were closely matched. The Fire-i had the lowest overall picture quality, but it made up for this in other areas. By Matthew Honan (Macworld via MyAppleMenu)
