Who was David S. Canter #1?

Who was David S. Canter #1? 09/24/2004 01:18 AM

One day I stumbled downstairs into our kitchen to meet Harold Washington talking to my father. Harold was the Congressman from our district and my father was explaining to him how he could split the white vote and become the first black mayor of the city of Chicago.

My father had been mentoring, encouraging and working with Hariold for 15 years by then and it worked. They won the election and Harold became history. It was a blast back then - watching it all happen.

My father encouraged black politicians to get their piece of the pie - just as I'm encouraging micro-content entrepreneurs to get theirs.

My father never charged for helping anyone out - and it was only until he was 65 did he ever accept a job from anyone he helped. He was one of those idealistic reds.

His father was a famous American Communist and he was raised (as I was) on the notion that one man CAN change the world. Now it's my job to instill that spirit in my children (5 so far.)

... is like watching The Matrix on a Teletype machine/printer: you not only miss the entire experience, but most of the headlines picked up by the feed are uninteresting at quick glance, whereas the stories themselves usually are pretty good. Sure, better summary style might do the trick, as Jon Udell often writes about, but that would miss the point, and the impact/speed with which worthy items appear. I used to moan about the confusing (non-existing or subtle) quoting convention, but now I've told him that I don't care anymore... where would we be if Marc Canter gave up his shoot-from-the-hip style, and increasingly-rich-media blog pages?

Thanks Marc.

Marc Eisenstadt is one of my favorite people. And not just because he bought me a headset and camera (which I haven't even used yet.)

I tty and keep my life as close to 'normal' people as possible - so ONE DAY I'll pull out that camera and start using Marc's stuff - but first......

Jesse & Celine & Nina Simone

Jesse & Celine & Nina Simone 07/20/2004 09:39 AM
Just in time, you’ve found me just in time. Richard Linklater, like Wong Kar-wai, is a lyrical and elegiac filmmaker. In many of his films, as in many of Wong's (and as in Ming-liang Tsai's What Time Is It There?), the subject is time -- the romance and poetry of moments ticking by, the wonder and anguish of living through and then remembering an hour or a day. In 1995 Linklater made Before Sunrise, the story of the chance encounter of two strangers (an American young man and a French young woman) on a European train and their sleepless night in Vienna. Now ten years have passed, and they meet again in Paris: they -- and the audience -- only have 80 minutes to make up for the time they lost, Before Sunset. Linklater's new film, shot in uncut Steadycam takes (the longest clocks in at 11 minutes), in a sense is about how we create selves just by talking. But it’s also about how we become prisoners of time. Towards the end of the movie, Celine, sitting in the backseat of a car with Jesse, starts to caress his head while he isn't looking, then suddenly pulls back, and that simple curtailed gesture carries in it a sense of tragedy, the consequence of the weight of time... (more inside, with Nina Simone)

Announcing ReBlg.com

Announcing ReBlg.com 06/22/2005 02:41 AM

“Ever wondered why you can’t just click on an article and blog it?” – where’s the universal “Blog This” button?

“Concerned that while microformats and micro-content standards are taking off, our existing tools will lose the structure of these ‘chunks of reviews, events, media. Etc.?” – where are the ‘reblogging tools’ that maintain the structure of microformats and micro-content?
“Tired of being forced to use only the latest tool or utility to take advantage of a new standard – wish you could use ANY tool or utility instead?” - where’s a routing service to enable me to send posts to whatever tool I chose?

Well then – you know why we created ReBlg.com – a universal “Blog This” button and routing service.

With ReBlog.com end-users will be able to click on a ‘ReBlog’ button and send a piece of micro-content or microformat to their favorite tool for editing, annotating or just plain prettying up. End-users would specify what is their favorite tool at a simple web service or in a MIME handler that they downloaded and run on their own machine.

Even though it’s been possible for years, most of today’s aggregators and tools do not support the notion of displaying a button to easily allow end-users to “Blog This” particular post or article. Sure some aggregators enable plug-ins to kludge this option, but in general most bloggers are forced to ‘cut’ the source of a post and ‘paste’ it into their favorite tool. With each tool or environment comes a different kludge or hack, with its own rules and gotchas to contend with.

And now that microformats and micro-content standards are emerging around richly structured content, isn’t this dream of ease of use slipping through our fingers?

So how would a standard to enable a universal “Blog This” button to work? Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to click on a ‘ReBlg’ button and decide which tool I want to send that post to – irregardless of who produces that tool? Wouldn’t it be nice that this process NOT lose the structure of the microformat or micro-content I’m clicking on – thereby keeping in tact the structure of that post?

Wouldn’t it be nice to support a system of meshing together various kinds of tools, utilities or solutions – from a wide range of vendor’s – without forcing end-users to take sides or lock them into one tool vendors camp or product?

Well that’s what ReBlg.com will do. (http://reblg.com/ )

Broadband Mechanics will be utilizing this technology in all our future micro-content publishing systems and DLAs (digital lifestyle aggregators) so we thought it would be useful to the entire industry as well.

Here’s how it would work:

- a tool vendor or individual page creator would:

o a) make sure that each individual micro-content or microformat posts would have their own unique permalink or anchor URL
o b) we’d provide code that would display a ‘Reblg’ button next to that post ( http://gonze.com/bbm/source.html )

- when an end-user clicks on this button, the post is sent to a router screen which sends the post (via a web service called ReBlg.com or a MIME handler that was downloaded onto the end-users machine) to their favorite tool of choice.
- The micro-content structure would be maintained, while each ‘reblog’ tool would provide whatever features that tool vendor wishes. BBM will (for instance) enable end-users to add visual wrapper or borders, annotation, tags and URLK to the post
- That’s it ( http://reblg.com/ )

ReBlg.com would enable end-users to register their favorite tool of choice so that wherever they traveled on the web, by simply clicking on the ‘ReBlg’ button – they could easily send that post to their favorite tool. If the end-user doesn’t want to rely upon our web service, then they can simply download a MIME handler to do that routing for them.

We’ll soon to be putting out a FireFox Greasemoneky script – which will automatically sense micro-formats and display the ‘ReBlg’ buttons. An ActiveX control is also in the works.

By providing a simple way for end-users to send any richly structured post to their favorite tool, the microformat and micro-content revolution can take another step towards reality.

And where are these tools which will recognize the microformats or micro-content and not lose their structure? Well BBM will be providing one and plug-ins for WordPress and Moveable Type – as well.

Final NOTE: We feel horrible about being so close to Reblog.org. They’re nice people – but we use the term reblog completely differently. Hmmmmm.

Announcing Blosxom 2.0

Announcing Blosxom 2.0 10/28/2003 11:06 PM
I'm thrilled to announce that Blosxom 2.0 has been released today. For those not in the know, blosxom (pronounced "blossom") is a lightweight yet feature-packed weblog application designed from the ground up with simplicity, usability, and interoperability in mind.

The biggest change in this latest incarnation of Blosxom is a plugin architecture, allowing the core of Blosxom to remain small, sleek, and simpler-than-pie while providing room for extension and integration. The Blosxom Plugin Registry is already home to some 140 plugins ranging from authentication to Google search, click-through tracking to writebacks (read: combination talkbacks and TrackBacks).

There's also a brand new Blosxom for Mac OS X Installer, the simplest way to get Blosxom on your laptop, desktop, or closet Mac without any of the muss or fuss of installing it by hand. A couple-three clicks of the mouse and it'll skip lightly through the nitty-gritties, installing Blosxom itself, some sample flavours, documentation, and some useful plug-ins.

Also launching today is the new and improved blosxom.com. The site features updated, augmented, and just plain new documentation and an easier path download, installation, configuration, and blogging -- not to mention the snazzy layout. And the whole kit and kaboodle is built on and powered by Blosxom using nothing but what comes on board and the power of a selection of user-contributed plugins; for the niggly-naggly details, take a gander at the colophon.

Karma++, Brownie++, and gold stars to the Blosxom users and abusers on the blosxom mailing list for their patience, bug-fixes, suggestions, and plugins. You truly are a fabulous community within which to hack and learn.

Announcing (and explaining) our new 2.0
licenses

Announcing (and explaining) our new 2.0
licenses 05/25/2004 06:04 PM

Last night, after many months of gathering and processing great feedback from all of you, we turned on version 2.0 of the main Creative Commons licenses. The 2.0 licenses are very similar to the 1.0 licenses -- in aim, in structure, and, by and large, in the text itself. We've included, however, a few key improvements, thanks to your input. A quick list of new features follows. All section numbers refer to the Attr ibution-Noncommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 license. (Corresponding section numbers may vary across licenses.)

Attribution comes standard

Our web stats indicate that 97-98% of you choose Attribution, so we decided to drop Attribution as a choice from our license menu -- it's now standard. This reduces the number of licenses from eleven possible to six and makes the license selection user interface that much simpler. Important to remember: Attribution can always be disavowed upon licensor request, and pseudonymous and anonymous authorship are always options for a licensor, as before. If we see a huge uprising against the attribution-as-stock-feature, we'll certainly consider bringing it back as an option.

Link-back attribution clarified

Version 1.0 licenses did not carry any requirements to add hyperlinks as attribution. Under the 2.0 licenses, a licensor may require that licensees, to fulfill their attribution requirement, provide a link back to the licensor's work. Three conditions must be satisfied, though, before a licensee faces the linkback requirement: (1) linking back must be "reasonably practicable" -- you can't string me up for failing to link to a dead page, for example; (2) the licensor must specify a URL -- if you don't provide one specifically, i have no linkback obligation; (3) the link licensor provides must point to the copyright and licensing notice of the CC'd work -- in other words, licensors who abuse the linkback as an engine for traffic to unrelated sites don't enjoy linkback rights.

Synch rights clarified

The new licenses clarify when licensees may or may not synchronize musical CC'd works in timed-relation with a moving image. Basically, if a license allows derivatives, it allows the synching of music to video. If no derivs, no synching allowed. (See Sect ion 1b.)

Other music-specific rights clarified

The default rules for music-related copyrights can be particularly complicated, and the 2.0 licenses go to greater length to clarify how various CC license options affect music rights. In a nutshell: If you pick the "noncommercial" provision, you retain the right to collect royalties from BMI, ASCAP, or the equivalent for performance royalties; from Harry Fox or the equivalent for mechanicals; and from SoundExchange or the equivalent from webcasting compulsories. If you allow commercial re-use, you waive the exclusive rights to collect these various revenue streams. This is not a departure from the policy embodied in the 1.0 licenses -- these same results would be extrapolated by any reasonable interpretation. But 2.0 just makes it all clearer, and using the language of the profession. (See Sect ions 4e and 4f.) Note: This music-specific language marks the first time we've referred to any specific statutes in the generic CC licenses. This means that future iCommons licenses will have to do the same somewhat complicated mapping exercise for each respective jurisdiction.

Warranties? Up to licensors

Unlike the 1.0 licenses, the 2.0 licenses include language that makes clear that licensors' disclaim warranties of title, merchantibility, fitness, etc. As readers of this blog know by now, the decision to drop warranties as a standard feature of the licenses was a source of much organizational soul-searching and analytical thinking for us. Ultimately we were swayed by a two key factors: (1) Our peers, most notably, Karl Lenz, Dan Bricklin, and MIT. (2) The realization that licensors could sell warranties to risk-averse, high-exposure licensees interested in the due diligence paper trial, thereby creating nice CC business model. (See the Prelinger Archive for a great example of this free/fee, as-is/warranty approach.) You can find extensive discussion of this issue in previous posts on this blog. (See Sect ion 5.)

Share Alike Across Borders

Version 2.0 licenses that feature the Share Alike requirement now clarify that derivatives may be re-published under one of three types of licenses: (1) the exact same license as the original work; (2) a later version of the same license as the original work; (3) an iCommons license that contains the same license elements as the original work (e.g. BY-SA-NC, as defined in Sect ion 1 of each license). The version 1.0 licenses required that derivative be published under the exact same license only. Our tweak means much better compatibility across future jurisdiction-specific licenses and going forward across versions. Less forking, more fun. (See Sect ion 4b.)

Otherwise, Share Alike Means Share Alike

After much very strong and eloquent argument from our readers and supporters, and notwithstanding the increased flexibility of Share Alike in the iCommons context, we decided not to make the BY-NC-SA and plain BY-SA licenses compatible. If you take a work under BY-NC-SA 2.0 and make something new from it, for example, you can re-publish under BY-NC-SA Japan, or BY-NC-SA 7.4 (when that comes), but you cannot republish it under any other license or combine it with BY-SA content. Similarly, a derivative made from a work under BY-SA 2.0 may be published only under BY-SA 2.0, BY-SA (iCommons license), or BY-SA 9.1, but it can't be mixed with BY-NC-SA or other noncommercial content and republished.

BarlowSpam: Announcing this Blog to the
BarlowFriendz 01/07/2004 02:16 PM
After skidding through much of last two years on bald tires of unconditional hope, I am starting to feel traction again. The polarity may be about to reverse. New light is perceptible. Still, things might get worse before they get better, and if I haven't learned anything else during this dreary passage, I've learned that we need each other. I've learned that community, in which I've always placed great rhetorical value, really does count. Ironically, I've learned this even as I thinned my own belonging in the communities that once sustained me. I have not set foot in the little Wyoming town I still call "home" during calender year. I've bounced around the planet, solitary as an ion, as though in Brownian Motion. Though too alone in other ways, I suspect I'm not alone in this. So I'd like to do more to increase the density of connection with this little community, the BarlowFriendz. Aside from being bound by the one thing you know you have in common, knowing me, you've been provided with little opportunity to learn about the many other things you have in common. Of course, many of you knew each other to begin with, and many, many more have come to know each other through BarlowFrenzies over the years, but you've so far had no means of getting generally connected in Cyberspace. My method of communication with you has been generally about as interactive as Rush Limbaugh's. I broadcast and then take a few calls (or e-mails, as the case may be) which I have not shared. I've often thought about passing them on, because they are usually as wonderful, thoughtful, witty, and intelligent as you are. But I didn't want to burden you with even more e-mail than you're already gagging on. It felt selfish not to share such an embarrassment of riches, but I know that if you start getting too much mail from me, you filter it into another mailbox which you never get around to opening. (Maybe this message is sitting just such a black hole now.) The solution has been obvious for some time: put up a blog. Then, instead of sending your responses to me alone, you can send them to everyone who reads the blog. Of course, personal responses can still be directed to me. (Though please be careful not to include barlowfriendz@eff.org among the recipients. A couple of months ago, I responded to such a message without checking the To: line and dispatched my reply to the entire list. Just in case you were wondering what that was...)...

Announcing Smithfield; Your Dual Core

Announcing Smithfield; Your Dual Core
Intel CPU 08/03/2004 12:46 PM
AnandTech has the latest roadmap from Intel regarding its dual-core processors. Besides the roadmap AnandTech has put together a pretty goodAMD has already announced that they will be offering dual-core processors sometime in 2005. The only company that plans on shipping dual-core processors is IBM, but IBM hasn't reviled enough to know where they stand.

How much do you all remember about Tejas (and Jayhawk, Tulsa)? What was to be the fourth generation NetBurst CPU line was originally canceled in favor of dual core 90nm processors. Although we can't comment on the fate of Tejas, we can comment on its replacement.

With Intel's latest roadmap, the thought on everyone's mind is "DUAL CORE PENTIUMS WOW!" - and believe me, it takes a lot to get the boss excited. Indeed, it looks like that magic "Tejas" core that disappeared off the face of the earth has resurfaced as a dual core "Smithfield." From what we can tell from the roadmap, Smithfield will show up in Mid 2005 with three desktop SKUs. Remember, AMD's dual core Toledo Opteron will debut as server chips. Both AMD and Intel's chips are scheduled to be 90nm processor cores.

Link-Fu is an online competition where during a specific, pre-established period of time -- in this case, Thursday, November 6 from 9AM-12PM, Eastern Time -- you send us one url that links to some very weird something somewhere. Something so bizarre and wild and intriguing and fascinating, that no-one else (or as few nobodies as possible) has seen.

Judges: Warren Ellis, Invi sible Cowgirl, Mark, Cory, Pesco, and yours truly. We declare a winner based on whatever we happen to like best. Not the grossest, not neccesarily Farkish or Rotten. Just the flat-out most bizarre -- though grotesquery is not neccesarily out of the question. In fact, here was last week's barfbag winner (WARNING: extremely distgusting, NSFW, Cowgirl found it). The winner wins the title of High Master of Link-Fu, until we hold the next battle.

So, if you'd like to compete in the website smackdown -- e-mail the funkiest, most potently bizarro url-age you can find to linkfubattle@yahoo.com on Thursday, November 6 from 9AM-12PM, Eastern Time (US). We will announce the winner Friday morning. May the best link win. (disclaimer: the whole thing was Warren and Cowgirl's idea.)

I've been using MoinMoin, a python based wiki because I thought I'd be able to hack it since I was learning python. It turns out that I haven't had any time to hack MoinMoin and frankly, it looks too difficult for me. The SocialText (I'm an investor and on the board) wiki software has become quite stable with some cool features so I've decided to switch my main wiki from Moin Moin to SocialText. The question I have is whether I should migrate pages from my old wiki and whether I should continue running the old wiki. If I am going to migrate the pages, another question is how to move the pages... Anyone have any thoughts?

• Old Wiki
• New Wiki

[Joi Ito]

I've been waiting for this to happen. Software needs professioanls to support it. This is the secret viral strategy of open source software. Once people start using it - they're hooked.

I knew that the open, unsupported Wiki Joi had - would someday HAVE to switch to SocialText.

Congrats to Ross and Pete et al.

Now (along with the LobbyCon Wiki) - I'm up to 7 SocialText Wikis.

On your marks... get set... LINK-FU!

On your marks... get set... LINK-FU! 11/06/2003 10:04 AM
Link-Fu starts now! Here's a reminder, in case you missed Tuesday's post:

Link-Fu is an online competition where during a specific, pre-established period of time -- in this case, Thursday, November 6 from 9AM-12PM, Eastern Time -- you send us one url that links to some very weird something somewhere. Something so bizarre and wild and intriguing and fascinating, that no-one else (or as few nobodies as possible) has seen.

Judges: Warren Ellis, Invi sible Cowgirl, Mark, Pesco, and yours truly. We declare a winner based on whatever we happen to like best. Not the grossest, not neccesarily Farkish or Rotten. Just the flat-out most bizarre -- though grotesquery is not neccesarily out of the question. In fact, here was last week's barfbag winner (WARNING: extremely distgusting, NSFW, Cowgirl found it). The winner wins the title of High Master of Link-Fu, until we hold the next battle.

Starting now, through 12PM EST (9AM Pacific), e-mail the funkiest, most potently bizarro url-age you can find to linkfubattle@yahoo.com. We will announce the winner Friday morning. May the best link win.

This it not a link to Paypal

This it not a link to Paypal 03/14/2005 06:18 PM
Unless you use a Firefox build from today then this paypal link will look like it's going to Paypal.com, but it'll really go to xn--pypal-4ve.com and not show you. Yikes! It even works with SSL (just another one for showing that SSL as an authenticator is a waste of time. Dear browser vendors, please stop the certificate insanity). Read more...
