CSS Drop Shadows 03/06/2004 01:52 AM

Much used, oft maligned but always popular, drop shadows are a staple of graphic design. Although easy to accomplish with image-editing software, they're not of much use in the fast-changing world of web design ... until now.

Where the shadows lie


Where the shadows lie 08/27/2004 02:13 PM
President Bush continues to point his finger at 527 organizations -- independent, tax-exempt political activist groups that are not supposed to coordinate their work with the candidates' campaigns. Bush won't condemn the toxic slurry-dump of the Swift Boat Veterans group's TV ad campaign; instead, he insists, everyone should repudiate all "shadowy" 527 groups equally.

You can find the heart of the president's subterfuge in that tenebrous adjective. Shadowy, of course, is bad. Shadowy is covert. Shadowy is dark. Shadowy is scary. Shadowy is al-Qaida.

Bush wants us to associate these qualities with all 527s. But the charge doesn't stick. Certainly, it's fair to apply it to the Swift Boat Veterans group, which emerged out of nowhere, fired its fusillade against John Kerry, and only then began to be exposed as an entity funded and organized by close associates (and in some cases actual officials) of the Bush campaign.

That qualifies as "shadowy" in my book. But the most prominent 527 on the other side of the political field is MoveOn.org -- and calling MoveOn "shadowy" is absurd. The group is the very model of a transparent organization. Its every decision is planned and vetted openly online. Its sources of funding are well-known. Its history dating back to the Clinton impeachment saga is fully chronicled. If the Swift Boat Veterans group were a true grassroots operation with a track record like MoveOn's, we wouldn't be having this argument today: If millions of Americans were genuinely outraged about John Kerry's war record the way millions of MoveOn supporters are outraged about George Bush's presidential record, Kerry would never have made it to the primaries' starting gate.

But the Swift Boat Veterans aren't a mass movement, they're a political dirty trick. And the immediate issue with them -- the reason people are demanding that Bush repudiate them -- is not that they're a 527. The problem is that the group's charges are false.

There's a legitimate debate worth having over whether 527s represent a good or a bad thing in the McCain-Feingold campaign finance era. But the Bush campaign isn't truly interested in that issue. Having surreptitiously and effectively launched a smear campaign against its opponent from the cover of a 527 organization, the Bush team now petulantly insists, "Everybody does it and everybody should stop!" The childishness of the tactic speaks for itself.

Tap & Tickle and Stick Shadows


Tap & Tickle and Stick Shadows 06/03/2004 12:37 AM

Wow!  This sounds cool.  Thanks Jonas!

S ocialighting It.

Nokia 6600 Well, I haven't heard back from Socialight, yet, but - gratuitous use of the term "social network" aside - this seems like a fun thing to try out. In a nutshell, Socialight is a cellphone application (currently for Symbian enabled phones), which provides the user with two distinct features - the suggestively named "tap & tickle" as well as "stick shadows".

The former simply boils down to a remote controlling of someone else's "vibrate" function, turning the target phone into a very high-tech version of an expensive handbuzzer. Tap the joystick (yes, this is suggestive, I know) and your target's phone will vibrate. Hold the stick, or shake it, and the tickling will go on for some time. Which is, btw, a nice way to drain someone else's batteries, if you're so inclined.

The latter is more interesting. "Sticky Shadows" are multimedia notes placeable virtually anywhere. A Socialight enabled phone crossing the location of such a note will retrieve and display the associated text, picture, sound, or video. This makes for a number of great uses. Virtual scavenger hunts are the more playful variants, location aware reminders ("Get milk while you're here, love Mum") or guided tours ("At this location, in 1953...") make for real world uses.

An interesting idea. I'll be waiting to test it out in actual scenarios. Once I do have it, expect a repetition of the infamous semacoding-the-city incident of 2004 :)

The problem is, we're not sure exactly which country this comic originated from, so Jason scanned in the back cover of the book as well, so hopefully one of our readers will be able to properly identify it. Please email me if you can.
