Jay Rosen: Independence From the Press Rocks the Gatekeeper's World. There is a smear campaign launched against John Kerry. But that is not the only thing going on with the Swift Boat Veterans. The press may have knocked down the most serious charges. But the idea of the press as the great adjudicator has also been knocked down.

Jay is onto something important here, and it worries me. The thrust of his argument is that the Swift Boat smear campaign remains successful on despite the mainstream media's exhaustive coverage debunking its credibility. The right-wing mediasphere of blogs, talk radio, Fox and other outlets has given it legs. The explosion of new voices is manifestly a positive development. So, too, is people's willingness to be skeptical of mainstream media's We Are the Purveyors of Truth routine. But the extent to which lies take on currency remains truly scary. It's been this way for a long time, in all media, but the Net works faster. Smears work. Truth struggles to catch up with lies in the short term, even if it does in the end. We should all worry about this.

Checking In On The Dot Com Dropouts

Checking In On The Dot Com Dropouts 09/22/2004 05:16 PM
During the bubble years, it was pretty common for students to drop out of college to start their own company or to join a promising startup. Of course, for many, once the bubble burst that didn't work out so well. Red Herring has gone out and checked in with some students who dropped out during the bubble years to see how well things turned out. While most weren't particularly successful (and, in some cases, it looks like their inexperience may have caused some of the problems), all still believed it was worth the shot -- even if the end result wasn't what they hoped for. Only one student out of the four interviewed has returned to complete his undergraduate degree (while another is slowly catching up on credits). While they may not have been as successful as they hoped, it looks like all of them got some sort of education in what starting a business really entails -- even if it's not always fun and games (and lots and lots of cash) as some people seemed to think.

Interesting article on The Loneliness of Being German: "Germans have turned their back on the arrogance of nationalism.. But if nationhood is obsolete then so is identity. It would mean that there is no such thing as being German and that they possess no individuality." Meanwhile, far right wing party growing support in German elections: "It's a great day for Germans who still want to be Germans" -- Holger Apfel, NPD leader in Saxony. Germany's government has described the NPD as a latter-day version of Hitler's Nazi party.

Early one morning last week (well, "early" is relative, but for me it's early until I've finished my first pot of coffee) I sat down to listen to Jens Yhrefors, sales manager at NordicEdge telling me about his company's "Identity Manager" product. It's certainly interesting, and certainly useful, but it might be misnamed. Before getting to that, though, some background.

Blog-checking a congresscritter

Blog-checking a congresscritter 05/23/2004 04:35 PM
My pal Pat Berry has decided to keep a close watch on Wally Herge, the rep from California's Second Congressional District, who is Pat's congresscritter. So Pat's sending him letters, asking him to answer for the government's mess in Iraq -- and other messes -- and blogging the congresscritter's form responses, with detailed, hyperlinked critiques. Pat doesn't expect Herge to stop talking bullshit as a result of being fact-checked, but he has high hopes for being a prominent search-engine result for the query "Wally Herge".

While there are no obvious points of contention here, it is meant to misdirect us from the fact that prisoner torture is wrong by pointing out that people want to hurt us. There will never be a time in history when somebody, somewhere will not want to hurt the United States or see us fail. In no way does this condone the torture of prisoners. It never has and it never will. Trying to associate the investigation with American weakness is a dirty trick. Compassion and a show of humanity is not weakness, nor is showing concern for a group of people other than ourselves. Also we must not let the fact that good things happen shield us from the horrors that happen in Iraq, they must be dealt with. For those honestly curious about the progress being made in Iraq, USAID has a site with extensive records and archives.

SCO claims that hundreds of lines of their Unix SVR4 code have somehow been mixed with the millions of lines of the Linux kernel, and that SCO should therefore receive a billion dollars from IBM. (Or something like that. Novell says that SCO doesn't own SVR4, SCO says they do own SVRx, Eric Raymond says that SVR4 contains misattributed BSD Unix code, and Darl McBride of SCO says something different every week.) I'll let you in on a dirty little secret: Many large software systems contain stolen or misattributed code. This is true of both in-house software and shrinkwrap software.

Checking In On The Dorm For Dreamers

Checking In On The Dorm For Dreamers 12/03/2003 11:06 AM
Last year we had a post about the special dorm for entrepreneurs at the University of Maryland. It's a dorm for students who want to start businesses. The dorm is set up to make it easier for students to run their own businesses, with full wireless connectivity, professional looking conference rooms, offices, white boards, and lots of typical office amenities. They also bring in speakers and have sessions on some of the more important aspects of starting and running your own business. Finally, they encourage students to go off and build the business of their dreams. The Boston Globe now has an article looking at how the program is doing, and it sounds like it's doing great. Lots of companies have been started, and the students seem to love the experience they're getting. They especially seem to enjoy the fact that they get to be around other like-minded students who they can share stories with and learn from. It sounds like there are even more companies this year than last year, and quite a few are making money. Whether or not any of these companies turns into a sustainable business is less important than the experience the students are getting. It will be interesting to see if other universities follow suit.

You know it's a slow news day when about the most interesting story around is the fact that an anti-spam company has noticed (no, really?) that CAN SPAM hasn't actually cut down on spam. In fact it's working so poorly that spammers have even stopped pretending to comply with it. About one-half of one percent of all spam apparently now complies with CAN SPAM. Good thing we have that law, huh?

Checking To See If Someone Read Your
Email

Checking To See If Someone Read Your
Email 05/20/2004 03:50 AM
USA Today is talking about a new service called DidTheyReadIt that claims it can tell you whether or not anyone is opening emails that you've sent, how long they spend with the emails and whether or not they forward them on. It's a for-fee service that requires you to send all of your email through their server. Basically, you append a didtheyreadit.com to the end of every email that you send, and their server does whatever black magic it does and passes the email on - at which point you can track it. Jeremy Wagstaff has been writing about them over the past few days and expressed plenty of concerns over the offering. He already uses a similar product - but which lets you clearly tell people that you're tracking what they do with the email. He's also worried about the company, especially since their other products are all about spying on people as well - such as a keylogger. Would you trust such a company to have all of your email on their server? The founder of DidTheyReadIt replied to him in two separate parts that do little to ease the concerns. This is the type of thing that people are (as the USA Today article points out) likely to flip out about - at the same time many will be intrigued to use it themselves. The thing that I wonder about, however, is how does it actually work? I'm guessing it needs to stick some sort of HTML bug into the email - a popular trick among spammers to determine whether or not you've opened their email and are "a live one." Of course, these days, you simply shouldn't use HTML email - at least not initially until you know a message is "safe." So, despite the fact that the service claims it works on "all" email systems, I wonder how well it actually works on anyone who avoids HTML-based emails. With new email systems like Gmail which smartly make anyone go through an extra step to view HTML-based email (though, they should set up rules to allow HTML email from a certain address), others may follow suit - especially if people get concerned about services like DidTheyReadIt.

Checking In On The DVD Jukebox Lawsuit

Checking In On The DVD Jukebox Lawsuit 04/18/2005 08:01 AM
While the Supreme Court ponders the issues set forth in the Grokster case, other, lesser known cases are moving forward. Last December, we wrote about the creator of a $27,00 0 DVD jukebox, who was sued by the movie industry. The product had all sorts of anti-copying technologies built in, and was very clearly designed to just let the user store all their DVD movies on a central server for his or her own viewing pleasure. Here's an update article that doesn't necessarily say anything new, but does point out the "real" reason why the movie industry is so afraid. They're worried that people will rent movies and burn them to the media server. So, let's get this straight: the industry is worried that people who are buying a $27,000 movie server will then go out and save a whopping $7 to $10 or so by renting a movie and ripping it straight to their hard drive. Of course, in the meantime, plenty of folks can download a DVD ripping application from the web for free. Maybe this is one case that the industry can just let go...
