01/26/2004 05:23 PMAs the DVD wave crested, it brought along Netflix, one of the first
companies to challenge brick-and-mortar video rental stores with a
unique business model: rent as many DVDs as you want for a flat
monthly rate. However, while the Netflix Web site offers a robust set
of features, such as the ability to assign ratings to movies and
rearrange your rental queue, they're often cumbersome to use.

Courts Freak Out That People Might
Actually Use Their Wireless Networks
12/22/2004 01:16 AMThis story seems bizarre, but apparently a bunch of courts are somehow
u
nprepared for the fact that people might actually use the WiFi
networks they installed. Most of the article focuses on a
reporter sending out realtime updates for a court case via the WiFi,
leading to this absolutely classic quote from someone from the court:
"In my life, I would have never thought you could do any of that.
When we put the wireless network in about two years ago, we didn't
think anybody would even use it." Yeah, they just installed it
for the hell of it. How dare someone actually use it! The rest of
the article goes on to discuss just how "dangerous" this situation is,
and how courts don't understand what a risk these networks are. It
also refers to "WiFi" as the "informal" name for wireless networks --
when it's actually very much the formal, certified name for them.

Iranian Election Text Messages Could
Backfire As Politicians Freak Out
Iranian Election Text Messages Could
Backfire As Politicians Freak Out
06/22/2005 02:17 AMThere have been plenty of stories about how mobile text messaging has
played a role in recent elections in places like
South Korea and the Philippines, among other places. So it's
not really surprising to find out that text messaging has been very
popular in Iran as well, which has a tremendously large younger
generation. However, unlike in those other places, it appears that
the politicians in question haven't quite learned how to adapt to the
changing technology. Since most of the effort is against a
particularly candidate, he's now
now threatening revenge against anyone
who sent SMS messages that were negative towards him: "I have the
address and phone numbers of those who have slandered me (in the text
messages)." The local judiciary is also making it clear that such
messages are illegal and they'll prosecute those involved. Imagine if
you had a similar situation in the US during elections where
mud-slinging is encouraged? Given Iran's history of
imprisoning bloggers and others who they
dislike, this is, obviously, a serious matter -- but it's just a
reminder that the things that we take for granted about open
communications thanks to new technologies aren't quite so embraced in
other parts of the world.
A message to the left-wing freak show
from the Club for Growth
A message to the left-wing freak show
from the Club for Growth
01/08/2004 08:00 PMLest anyone lull themselves into the
belief that the left has taken an uncontested lead in the
bad-mouthing-the-oppostion derby, I submit the following from an Iowa
anti-Dean ad being run by The
Club for Growth, a PAC which describes itself as "one of the
nation’s leading free-market political advocacy organizations."
In a current press release on
their web site, they announce an ad that began running today on Des
Moines, Iowa broadcast stations and on cable news channels, for which
they have budgeted over $100,000 during this phase of the campaign.
For for those who can't stream the ad from here,
it goes like this:
"A dignified older couple walks out of a barber shop. An
off-screen announcer asks what they think of Howard Dean’s plan
to raise taxes on a typical family by $1,900.
"Without hesitation, the husband responds: 'What do I think? Well,
I think Howard Dean should take his tax-hiking, government-expanding,
latte-drinking, sushi-eating, Volvo-driving, New York
Times-reading…'
"His wife continues: '…body piercing, Hollywood-loving,
left-wing freak show back to Vermont where it
belongs.'"
Judge Lets Napster Investor Case Proceed

Judge Lets Napster Investor Case Proceed
-- VCs Everywhere Freak Out
07/14/2004 05:10 PMIn a ruling that is bad news for investors everywhere, a judge has
allowed the recording industry's lawsuit against the
original Napster's investors continue. No matter what the
legality of Napster was, this case represents a much bigger issue: are
investors liable for what the company's they invest in do? Taken to
its logical extreme, all the stockholders of companies like Enron and
MCI should be responsible for the corporate misdeeds of those
companies. Obviously, that's a bit ridiculous, but should major
shareholders be responsible? If that's the case, life just got a lot
harder for just about any VC, who has to be even more careful about
what he or she invests in and some how has to personally guarantee the
company won't break any laws.

if Netflix appreciates how great the Hacking Netflix site is for them
even if it's also writing about the Bad Stuff. You'd think it'd be

corporations a bit from the inside I'd say certainly not ... sigh)...

Netflix on the Skids
Netflix on the Skids
03/19/2005 03:23 AMI just heard a
Netflix ad on
the Radio that trumpets its ability to ship your selections in one
day. That is true. It does take one day. The problem
is that the rest of the service has been substantially degraded.
Here's how:
- It now takes two days for returns to arrive at the Netflix
processing center (it used to take one).
- It takes a day to process your selection at the facility after it
recieves the return (it used to be same-day).
- Saturday processing and shipments have been terminated (they used
to provide this).
- Lost, damaged, or wrong reports take a day to process (it used to
send you a replacement or your next selection on the same day you
report).
- Popular movies are almost impossible to get in the first month of
their release. Cult movies are impossible to get.
If I was an investor in Netflix, I would take these actions as a
sell signal. I can't recommend the service to my friends and
family anymore.
