Here Come The Broadband Tiers

Here Come The Broadband Tiers 01/22/2004 02:06 PM
For years, US broadband ISPs have been talking about the possibility of offering tiered services, and have even experimented with different offerings. However, they've seemed afraid to go to a fully tiered model, because they feared a backlash from users. A new study suggests, though, that the backlash might not be all that big. It will, of course, be bigger among those who are the most likely to feel the impact of slower or capped service - but, otherwise, most people won't complain. The article suggests that the broadband providers should not set up tiers for existing users, but just create new "intro" plans to try to convince dialup users to move to broadband, without pissing off existing customers. Of course, some would point out that many broadband providers alrea dy have a usage cap - they just don't tell anyone what it is.

GAWKER LAUNCHES ALL-CAPS HEADLINE NEWS
SITE 04/06/2005 03:21 PM

We've launched a new site, called Sploid. Edited by Choire "Boo Boo Bear Prime" Sicha, Henry "Once Intern, Now Man" Seltzer, and Ken "Yeah, I Actually Don't Know This Guy" Layne, Sploid is like a Gawker blog but even lazier, as up-to-the-second news headlines are snarkily regurgitated in easy-to-read font sizes and just a dabbling of that always-original, never-a-Daily Show-knockoff Gawker-brand humor. And in just in case you're afraid we pinko New York liberals skew the noise to our gay/jew agenda, publisher Nick Denton reminds you that our 'political line' is "anarcho-capitalist," the same bullshit phraseology he uses to explain our pay scale.

But really, I love it already, so go give them a new first day traffic spike they'll look at wistfully for months to come.

OMG IT'S THE SITE [Sploid]

To that end, users are tinkering with modified router firmware upgrades to incorporate bandwidth management and a host of other free improvements.

SLAPP Caps CAPWAP, LWAPP?

SLAPP Caps CAPWAP, LWAPP? 04/05/2005 07:26 PM
We're all headline slap happy with introduction of WLAN switch standard SLAPP: The idea isn't to make fun with acronyms, but rather to find a standard baseline for switch-based access points that will allow switchmakers to focus their efforts on centralized support and turn APs into commodity items. Almost all industries eventually migrate into this modality, but problems in getting agreement among highly competitive vendors on CAPWAP (Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points) and LWAPP (Lightweight Access Point Protocol) led to SLAPP: Secure Light Access Point Protocol. Trapeze and Aruba apparently put their engineers together on the problem and produced a standard they took to the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to replace an expiring LWAPP proposal. In SLAPP, the only issues addressed are getting an AP provisioned and into switch mode. Trapeze and Aruba both announced proposals in recent weeks around this issue: Aruba went the open-source route, releasing a bootloader for Atheros reference designs that use a Motorola PowerPC; Trapeze is working with partners to incorporate their bootloader into commodity hardware. Fundamentally, both approaches are similar. The actual operation of the switched APs would still be proprietary, but at least a commodity device to boot from any compatible image under SLAPP....

However, when I pasted it into Irfanview there was nothing but black where the image was supposed to be. I tried screen-capping the entire desktop — same problem.

AP - Dwyane Wade blocked Amare Stoudemire's shot with about 3 seconds left in the third quarter, controlled the rebound and let fly from well beyond halfcourt. "It felt real good leaving my hands," Wade said.
