Syndication is not publication.

Syndication is not publication. 12/03/2002 11:46 AM

Yeah, what Mark said. I don't only agree with him 100%, but I'd say you'd be crazy not to. This is somewhere close to what i said in my last post.

It should be obvious to any rational observer that this will go nowhere fast. A syndication format that requires valid semantic XHTML markup? Spare me. 9 out of 10 bloggers can’t even spell XHTML.

The New York Times reports on the rapid growth in DVD publication, especially for small groups and individuals.

Independent filmmakers, specialty magazine publishers, artists, educators - all those with a video to sell, no matter how narrow the niche - are turning out DVD's and distributing them through the mail. It's a trend that began in the era of videotape but has accelerated with DVD's because they are inexpensive to duplicate and ship.

American colleges are wrestling with changes in the publication of scholarly journals. In response to rising prices and electronic access policies, some universities have unsubscribed from titles , supported open access models , or issued public statements about what appears to be a growing crisis in scholarly publication . Publishers, such as Elsevier , argue that they are responding to economic and technological changes, and still make a wealth of material available .

UC Digital Library Changing Scholarly Publication
http://www.syllabus .com/article.asp?id=9357

In response to rising -- "out of control" -- costs of scholarly publications, the University of California Digital Library's eScholarship Repository (http://repositories.cdlib.org/) offers faculty a central online location for everything from technical reports to peer-reviewed journals and edited volumes, says Catherine Candee, director of scholarly communication and publishing initiatives at UCDL. It provides university departments, centers and research units direct control over creation and dissemination of the full range of scholarly output, from pre-publication materials through journals and peer-reviewed series, and -- beginning in May 2004 - posting of legally available UC authors' commercially published articles. In addition to practical, day-to-day benefits and savings (in a little less than two years, the repository has seen almost 500,000 downloads of entire papers or articles), serendipitous benefits have surfaced. For example, the UCDL now boasts an infrastructure that allows administrators and faculty to focus on creating systemic change in the way authors and readers work. "We have technologies that allow broader, freer, more creative uses of text and data and we can begin to fashion badly needed services for the classroom, office and lab," says Candee. This will be added to Academic Resources 2004 Internet MiniGuide.

A Business Information Publication
Standard and Google's Power to Make It
Happen

A Business Information Publication
Standard and Google's Power to Make It
Happen 08/30/2004 03:17 PM

It's time we extend the robots.txt concept to information about businesses.

First, let's take a quick detour into robots.txt for a second —

In order to tell a search engine how to spider a Web site (or not), webmasters can stick a text file called "robots.txt" in their root directory with information spiders can use. This works because it's useful and it's ridiculously simple — everyone sticks the same file, named the same thing, in the same place. It's so simple, it can't NOT work.

MT-Blacklist does the same thing. You can put your blacklist in a text file called "blacklist.txt" in the root of your site so people can see what you're blocking.

For the sake of standards, it is recommended that the file be named blacklist.txt and reside in the root directory of your website. The possible network effect here is certainly delicious.

This isn't complicated — stick the same info in the same place and people will know where to get it.

Okay, back to the point —

Lets make up an XML spec for information about your business. Like this:


<business_info>
  <name>Deane's House of Pancakes</name>
  <address>1600 Pennsylvania Ave</address>
  <tag_line>We make round, fluffy crap.</tag_line>
  <hours>
    <monday>
      <open>0900</open>
      <close>2200</close>< br />    </monday>
[etc]


Obviously, this is absurdly simple, but you get the idea. You could have fields for your business phone number, fax number, general email, directions on how to get to your office, stock ticker symbol, customer service phone number, etc. Essentially, anything anyone would want to know about your business and for which they would (1) have to look up on your Web site, or (2) make a phone call to your receptionist.

Now, lets all put this file in the root of our Web site and call it "info.xml." That way we all know where it is, and we can all retrieve it. Now, every business has a common URL pattern where a program can find easily digestable information about the business. It's not hard to imagine what we could do with this.

For instance, Outlook could parse the domain name of the email address of all your contacts, go looking for this file for each one, then store the information with the contact (refreshing it every 30 days or so).

Online white and yellow pages could have a field day with it — you just give them your URL, and all your information is self-updating. Search engines could present this information alongside search results for your company. Etc.

Of course, this only works if everyone does it. And here, my friends, is the one, single thing that would have to happen for everyone to do it: Google adopts it. That's it. If Google announced tomorrow that they were going to do something like this, and released the spec for it, we'd see info.xml files start to hit the Web within a few hours. We'd have massive saturation within a month.

Google is already pushing beyond search with localization results. They're nailing down addresses of sites they visit, then presenting them in graduated radii from the city center.

Why not eliminate the parsing step and just ask people to put their actual address in a file in a common location? And while they're at it, have them put a bunch more information there as well. Once search engines starting spidering and parsing this stuff, it's amazing the level of detail and accuracy you could get for online directories and other business information sources.

And, again, the only thing standing between this idea and reality, is Google. Google is such a juggernaut that they could — in the words of Jean Luc Picard — "make it so" just by announcing that they wanted to it to happen. Companies would fall all over themselves to deliver it. Like Microsoft, Google is in a position to drive standards simply by virtue of its position.

So, Google, snap to it. The world is waiting.

One of the biggest problems in creating and delivering a site is how to decide, specify, and communicate exactly what we're building and why. Use cases can help answer these questions by providing a simple, fast means to decide and describe the purpose of your project. In this quick-reading article, Messieurs Carr and Meehan introduce use cases and their, uh, uses.

Another Day, Another IE Problem 07/02/2004 08:22 AM

Security risks swell for Microsoft's Explorer: From the Gee, That's Obvious Department.

Using Microsoft's Internet Explorer Web browser to surf the Internet has become a marked risk — even with the latest security patches installed.

That's the upshot of the discovery of yet another Internet Explorer security hole being exploited by intruders bent on swiping personal information from unwitting Internet users.

[...] "Internet Explorer's track record is such that the software just cannot be trusted right now," says Jeremiah Grossman, CEO of WhiteHat Security.

Again, I ask: if you're still using IE...why?

Win XP Sp2 Problem

Win XP Sp2 Problem 08/27/2004 01:56 PM
Introduced in Service Pack 2, along side many other security features, Windows XP gained the "security center" (screenshot). A nice addition, and a central place for people to check their system's security status. So we thought.

eWeek and PC Magazine have published reports suggesting that the system can be spoofed very easily, allowing potentially nasty programs to perform un-wanted tasks. "Based on an anonymous tip, we looked into the WMI and the Windows Security Center's use of it, and found that it may not only be a security hole, but a crater in the wrong hands. Due to the nature of WMI, the WSC could potentially allow attackers to spoof the state of security on a user's system while accessing data, infecting the system, or turning the PC into a zombie for spam or other purposes."

The PC Magazine article explores the problem and how it can be exploited in good depth. It makes very depressing reading for users who had hoped that Microsoft had over-come this kind of problem with Service Pack 2. Microsoft responded to the article suggesting that they didn't think it was a problem at all; they added that you needed to be running as an administrator for it to be an issue; true, PC Mag agreed, but they also noted that XP Home runs (by default) as Admin, and most users of XP Pro make themselves administators to save hassle when installing and running programs.

Service Pack 2 is a necessary upgrade for all users, and everyone should install it. However, as the article and Neowin recommend, don't rely to heavily on these new security features. Ensure you update Firewall / AV / Windows often, and check the status of your protection often. Microsoft will never be able to be 100% safe / problem free, but they are trying, and should be commended for their effort.
