At this level, you really benefit from tools that can not only identify problems but fix them. Of course, it's hard to write general tools for this, since "fixing problems" is typ

Craig Newmark, founder of the hugely successful craigslist classified advertising and community sites, has been getting more political on his personal blog. Today he takes a satiric shot at what he calls the Three Stooges of the Apocalypse.

Interview with Craig from Craigslist

Interview with Craig from Craigslist 08/27/2004 01:34 PM

I blogged earlier about the sale of 25% of the stock of Craigslist to eBay. Out of context, some people might not understand why this requires explaining or someone with a casual understanding might think Craig sold out. Here's some more context. (And no, Craig has not "sold out".)

Craig is a very unique individual and this interview and his site are a testament to that. In March, on the way to SXSW, I was with a group which had an airline nightmare at SFO. Craig negotiated with the extremely unhelpful Mesa Airlines for the whole group of us and was amazingly effective. I was moved by how he insisted that we were a group and was not willing to settle for anything that left anyone behind.

Craig of Craigslist interview
Wired Magazine ran an interview this month with Craig Newmark, the founder of Craigslist and an all-round mensch:

Google's touchy-feely corporate mantra is "Don't be evil." What's yours?

Give people a break.

A break from what?

A break from how difficult our lives are. It's like, if you're walking out of your apartment building and somebody is coming the other way with an armful of groceries, you hold the door. It feels good - it's the neighborly thing to do. And our species survives by cooperating.

What poses the major threat to that survival?

Kleptocrats and sociopathic organizations that have the almighty dollar as their only goal.

Some real social networking

Hey, there's a lot of buzz about "social networking", software and sites that connect people for purposes including dating.

Friendster is the best example, though it's easy to question if it creates a real atmosphere of intimacy. I just don't know; I have a network of over a million people, without trying at all. With some "first mover" advantage, they have a good shot at survival.

The Chronicle talks about buzznet, which is a photo blogging community,just starting, which really seems to connect people.

Maybe any real social networking success will come from sites where people are doing it primarily from passion, just trying to pay the bills, who knows?

I'm beginning to feel that success requires organic growth over a period of years.

I should add that I know these guys, worked with them a long time ago, '95, and feel that they really do have good motivations.

The Chron article, really good, is here.  [craigblog]

Commentary from CEDX's Craig Plunkett

Commentary from CEDX's Craig Plunkett 01/22/2004 02:13 AM
Craig Plunkett responds to the Edge Consult hotspot report: In a trial of introducing more voices to Wi-Fi Networking News, we're publishing a response to our recent coverage of the Edge Consult report on Wi-Fi from Craig Plunkett. Craig is the founder and head of CEDX Corporation, a network services and installation firm that has also rolled out hotspots in the Manhattan and New York area. Craig writes: It would be interesting to see who commissioned the Edge Consult report. Sounds like a European GSM carrier that doesn't have a Wi-Fi strategy. With only having access to the report's table of contents, I think their conclusions are way off base. The Cellular carriers still have to provide backhaul, and for that, RBOCs [regional Bell operating carriers, or the Baby Bells] and MSOs [cable multi-system operators] rule in the U.S. I don't know about Europe; that's probably still the PTTs [state-owned phone monopolies]. Plus, venues that have cell towers that carry massive voice volume receive big-time rents for these, on the order of US$10,000/month/carrier if you have a location on a major highway. Will venue owners expect this level of compensation for carrier hotspots? You obviously have to deploy more hotspots in different locations than the cell antennas are currently located, so you can't leverage the existing real estate, T-1s or fiber to towers, unless you use 3G backhaul from the hotspot, and we know that story. The report also seems very Eurocentric. As far as the fee or free model, it's not an actual study if it uses made-up data! I can do a study, too, that says fee-based profits are higher than free and publish it if I make up my own numbers. I don't really mind the conclusion of the report, because it discourages competition from other fee-based providers. Hey, the market's going to do what it wants, whatever my opinion is, but let's not have made up numbers sound like facts. What needs to be done is to get a hold of some numbers from a chain under the same brand where access is free in some locations, paid in some, and there's no access in others, all in the same geographical area. You also need to collect data from the users of the spots, on whether they're here just for the Wi-Fi, whether they'd pay for it or not, and at the places with no coverage,...

The Slashdot Effect

The Slashdot Effect 12/17/2004 06:43 PM

Slashdot effect: Interesting comments and links about the Slashdot effect.

Few definitive numbers exist regarding the precise magnitude of the Slashdot effect, but estimates put the peak of the mass influx of page requests at anywhere from several hundred to several thousand hits per minute. The flood usually peaks when the article is at the top of Slashdot's front page and gradually subsides as the story is superseded by newer items. Traffic usually remains at elevated levels until the article is pushed off the front page, which can take from 12 to 18 hours after its initial posting.

Someday people will live in fear of "The Gadgetopia Effect."

Slashdot Is Worthless

Slashdot Is Worthless 01/07/2003 09:53 PM
There. I said it. Slashdot is worthless. OK, I'll admit that the headlines are useful, but the comments certainly are not. The sad thing about Slashdot is that there are still people posting useful and interesting comments, and they're utterly and completely lost among the utter crap that floods the site. Generally I make do by simply ignoring the comments section on Slashdot entirely, but after reading the comments on the Jhai PC yesterday, I realized that the comments section is not just worthless but actually a malign force. -- rafeco

I see it slightly differently. Slashdot is great as a black hole for all the stupid comments you have kept deep down inside you, a place you can let go of all your shit. Just like this weblog!

Slashdot Trolling Defined

Slashdot Trolling Defined 01/16/2004 11:33 AM

Slashdot trolling phenomena: Here's an example of awesomeness of Wikipedia combined with some pretty interesting reading. It's several thousand words on the trolling of Slashdot comments.

The Slashdot trolling phenomena make up a bizarre and complex subculture found on the popular Slashdot technology website. It is a mixture of juvenilia, sarcasm, deliberately bad jokes, tasteless nonsense and highly developed and artistic attempts to provoke outraged responses from other forum users, or amuse them. It is a subset and a microcosm of Internet trolling in general.

Stefan Esser is the author of the Hardened PHP project. Reading through the feature-list, i cannot help but feel that some of these features should have been rolled into PHP's standard safe-mode. Implementing it as a set of patches just means a lot more work for everyone, particularly the maintainer.

Some of the responses to this post were quite interesting. Among other things, PHP appears to be a great programming tool for Porn.

RSS abuse and Slashdot IP banning

RSS abuse and Slashdot IP banning 05/12/2004 03:50 PM

I've had a number of people ask me about t his blog entry, whose title suggests that FeedDemon was banned from Slashdot. If you read the entire entry you'll find out that the subject is misleading - it's really about how Slashdot tries to protect itself from people who make too many requests on their feed.

Given the un necessary bandwidth consumption caused by some RSS readers, Slashdot certainly has every right to try to protect themselves from RSS abuse. The problem is that they ban based on IP address - which obviously causes problems for those behind a proxy server that shares a single IP address with dozens of other users. In all fairness, though, I'm not sure of a better solution to Slashdot's valid concerns.

Anyway...since some who read the aforementioned article thought it might be due to a problem in FeedDemon, I just wanted to make it clear that this will happen regardless of which RSS reader you use if you're behind an IP-sharing proxy. As I pointed out in an earlier post, FeedDemon employs a number of techniques to keep bandwidth consumption to a minimum - which not only keeps it 'Net-friendly, but also makes it extremely fast since it doesn't waste time performing unnecessary updates.
