But a writer has interviewed Colin Powell, Condi Rice, various Pentagon insiders and some unnamed friends of Powell, and they all (save Condi, whom one of the GQ writer's sources calls "a jerk") agree: Colin's tired.

Putting together PDF files 06/17/2004 08:21 AM
There are times when you need to combine multiple files from diverse sources into a single PDF file. In Windows or the MacOS it's easy -- use Adobe Acrobat. Sadly, Adobe hasn't deigned to put out a version of Acrobat for Linux, but there are a number of Linux utilities available that enable you to quickly and efficiently combine PDF files. This article looks at three command line utilities: Ghostscript, joinPDF, and pdfmeld. Each does a good job of combining PDF files, and they all pack some interesting features.

Putting Ads On Others' Ads

Putting Ads On Others' Ads 03/30/2005 05:20 PM
A few different sites today are talking about a new service, called Oodle, that lets people do a meta-search for classifieds in specific locations. In other words, you choose the city you live in (they don't offer many yet), and you do a search for "bicycle" and you'll get ads from Craigslist, eBay, the local newspaper and others. It's an interesting idea, but some are wondering about the legality of it. The business model of the company is to put contextual ads along side the results. Deep linking to stories has been shown to be legal (in most places...), but does it get more complicated when you're deeplinking into ads? The obvious answer is that it shouldn't matter at all. Services like this one drive more traffic to the ads, which should make everyone happy. Either way, what's most interesting about this development is that it's, yet another example of how people want advertising that's relevant to them and which they have control over. Classified ads are ads after all. So, is there really a business model in placing contextual, machine generated ads next to ads that people are specifically searching for? It seems like a stretch.

Putting the public into PBS

Putting the public into PBS 06/17/2005 03:29 PM

Hey folks at PBS, I hear you're ha ving funding problems. Might I suggest taking a spin around the Web to find content released under a Creative Commons license that you can broadcast for free? The Creative Commons site has a content search engine, as does Yahoo!

It doesn't look like there's a whole lot of video just yet, but Jason Scott has just released his 5 1/2 hour-long documentary series on BBS technology and culture under a Creative Commons license. The series is not going to cost any money to acquire beyond the $50 the 3-DVD set costs and from what I hear, it's an interesting and professionally produced view of a topic that many in your potential audience might be interested in watching.

And perhaps it's time to make the Public Broadcasting Service into just that...media by the people, for the people. A nationwide public access channel that draws the best citizen content from around the country and (this is the important bit) is edited into PBS programming. Or at least take a few hours out of the week for this...I don't want to see Frontline, Sesame Street, Nova, or Newshour with Jim Lehrer taken off the air, but giving the Make magazine gadgeteers a half-hour a week to geek out about hacking stuff seems reasonable. The overall result may feel less professional but a lot more participatory.

Putting the "fun" in fungi

Putting the "fun" in fungi 12/17/2003 02:46 AM

Just got back from what was easily the best meal I've had in Oregon at the Joel Palmer House. Jack, the founder, is a renowned mushroom expert going way back and searches the local forests for truffles, porcinis, and chanterelles, then serves them up in his meals.

He captured the essence of mushrooms in every dish. The dishes tended towards hearty and earthy flavors but were also a bit heavy and creamy, which is just fine for winter. He toured the dining area at one point and I got to ask him what he serves in the summer and he said "lots and lots of local berries, but the dishes are best eaten when it is cold outside." Their wine list had an impressive chunk of the entire willamette valley region to offer as well.

I really wanted to ask him how risky it was to harvest wild mushrooms specifically to serve customers, but figured it was best to skip that kind of morbid topic at a fine meal ("have you ever served fugu encrusted with death caps?" or "So what are our chances of dying tonight?" probably would have been my questions).

If you go, by all means opt for the "mushroom madness" prix fixe menu which is what I imagine is the closest you could get to judging an Iron Chef battle. There are five courses all based around different mushrooms, then a dessert that includes them as well. The portions started small and light, as they should be, but eventually grew into full sized plates. I had to practically be rolled out of the place by the end.

But it was a great place and an amazing experience that I'll be dragging all my out-of-town visitors to enjoy.

IBM is working with Fox on technology to limit digital television broadcasts to particular local markets. It's a variation on the "broadcast flag" the FCC is imposing on makers of TVs and other digital media devices, but with a twist.

The argument for the flag is that it protects intellectual property, by limiting unauthorized redistribution of digital content. The IBM/Fox technology, on the other hand, protects business arrangements. It's designed, I assume, to preserve local advertising dollars, by forcing users to see content intended for their local markets. Nothing wrong with companies trying to fight change in their markets. What's worrisome is when that battle has government on one side. The danger of the broadcast flag is that it will be the entry point for all sorts of restrictions that have little to do with protecting copyright.

Putting identity into context

Putting identity into context 06/17/2005 04:49 PM
Last week's newsletter about context ("Explaining the importance of context in ID mgmt.") elicited responses from a number of readers. A few readers - especially those who disagreed - appear to have a different definition of context. That's not really surprising, as some people whose job is designing identity architectures and services also appear to have a different definition than mine. I'd like to use an example that one reader submitted (Thanks, Paul) to try to further explain this. The example:
