Anti-Gmail Bill Now Allows Gmail
Anti-Gmail Bill Now Allows Gmail
05/26/2004 01:35 PMLast month there was a lot of talk about the somewhat clueless move by
a California politician to create a law that would
ban
Google's Gmail offering, despite the fact that it was completely
optional to use. It appears that enough people (probably including
those at Google itself) sat down with State Senator Liz Figueroa to
explain how email works, and have convinced her to
tone down
the bill so that it now allows Gmail. That's right, the
anti-Gmail bill now has loopholes that specifically allow Gmail. In
other words, Senator Figueroa seems to have realized just how
pointless the bill was in the first place and is trying to save face
by adjusting it so that it still seems to have a purpose: banning a
bunch of things that no one was doing, like having humans read the
content of your emails to put in advertising.

have a newly-branded desktop CPU, the Pentium D, and a host of other
multicore products. Join Hannibal as he looks back at the IDF and

E3 roundup
E3 roundup
06/05/2005 10:53 PMAnother E3 is ready to wrap up. Before it rides off into the sunset
until 2006, check out Kurt Mackey's roundup of all things E3.
The big news at this year’s E3 was the
introductions of next generation consoles from Sony, Nintendo and
Microsoft. The marketing material’s been covered pretty
extensively, and E3 was a good chance for scrubs like me to get (or
attempt to get) some more information about the upcoming
consoles.
Microsoft was the big winner when it came to showing off
next-generation consoles. Sony was second, and about all Nintendo had
to say about the Revolution was that it's about the size of three DVD
cases. Read on for the definitive E3 summary.

Regression Roundup
04/19/2005 04:14 AMThe purpose of this blog entry is for you to track back to it with
regressions you have discovered going from 1.2 to 1.3. It would be
especially helpful if you can test up front for whether this is a user
agent bug (by spoofing as another browser), since changes in browser
version numbers often cause regressions even when nothing is wrong
with the browser itself.
The more clear and concise the reduction, the better the chances
are that we can address the issue quickly (thus increasing the odds it
can make it into a software update sooner rather than later).
Please include in these trackbacks only regressions from 1.2. If
you included something in the earlier blog entry's comments section,
please post it again as a trackback. Thanks!
RSS News Roundup
RSS News Roundup
02/07/2005 01:41 AMFirst The Guardian and
then the L.A.
Times:
“
Guardian has tied up with a till-now stealth
company called Consenda, and I
met up with the CEO Xavier Ferguson today in NYC. The RSS newsreader
(Guardian insists on called RSS as Webfeeds), called Newspoint, is
a downloadable app, with a tabbed and clean interface. The newspaper
has started offering it as a test download for about 250
users....” [Paid
Content.org]
“The LA Times has launched a branded RSS news aggregator in partnership
with Consenda. You can find it here, however the service is invitation-only right
now. The launch comes on the heels of the Guardian's RSS
newsreader, which like the LAT is also called Newspoint.” [Mic
ro Persuasion]
Frankly, I’m surprised
it’s taken this long for newspapers to start figuring this out.
Andy Rhinehart and I have been talking about newspapers and
aggregators for three years, and we’re just now seeing some
signs of life in this area. What does surprise me is that the
Newspoint app is a download, rather than a web-based site.
But
of course, the really big RSS news of the day is that Ask
Jeeves bought Bloglines. What does this mean for everyone’s
favorite, free, web-based aggregator, and more importantly, for its
users? Hopefully just some text ads, which were coming anyway, since
that’s what I use when I teach RSS at MLS. It will be interesting to
see what happens with this during the next few months, but we’re
definitely seeing more signs that this will indeed be a big year
for RSS. Hopefully, libraries will be part of it.

Review Roundup
Review Roundup
09/25/2004 05:03 PMA roundup of the stuff I've seen and used in the past few
months:
- Riding Giants
was fantastic, doing for surfing what Dogtown and Z Boys did for
skateboarding: making a sport interesting to regular folks. The big
wave stuff at the very end is really incredible, though if I had to
find any fault with this movie, it kind of glossed over the 80s
revival of big wave surfing, especially all the drama at the Eddie
Aikau contests.
- The folks at Bigha sent me a Jasper Laser to play
with, and it actually works as described. On dark, clear nights, you
can point at stars surprisingly well, and folks next to you can see
what you're pointing at. For complete amateur astronomers, this is
often the biggest problem as you point and try to describe stuff to
others. The laser worked so well one night that I heard my next door
neighbor ask "what in the hell is that?!"
- The "cr
ippy duck" bag from Crumpler is the best laptop/camera bag I've
ever owned, and might just be the last one I need. The laptop sleeve
fits my 12" powerbook well and I can toss the charger, my digital
rebel, an extra lens, and an external flash into the rest of the
interior space. Basically I can carry everything I might need in
something smaller than most of the messenger bags I've used in the
past.
- My bag is also filled with ziplinq cables, which work great at
connecting and charging my cell phone, my ipod, and my CF card reader,
in addition to connecting to ethernet when need be and modem
connections as well.
- Joel on
Software's book is a surprisingly good read. It's basically a book
of essays and blog entries but it's really well written, though skews
towards hardcore (C++) software development.
- I mentioned Medium Footwear on
this site about a year ago, but finally found a shop with a good
selection in San Francisco. I own a pair of these and they're some of my all-time
favorite shoes. Interesting on the outside, and a comfortable skate
shoe on the inside. Perfect.
- Jason took me to an
all-risotto restaurant called Risotterria that was really good and worth checking out
if you're in Manhattan.

Robosapien Roundup
08/18/2004 04:15 PMSeveral interesting Robosapien items
have been submitted lately. From Gizmodo comes news of a giant
Robosapien outside the Macy's department store in New York. Also,
zodiak has written an article
on the Robosapien's internals that includes lots of very clear
photos. That sort of information will come in handy if you plan on
entering the SERVO
Magazine Hack-A-Sapien contest. Also some DPRG members dissected a
Robosapien at a recent RBNO. If you haven't got
a Robosapien
yet, they're still available from Amazon.com
at a discount. Links to more photos and video of the
Robosapien are available in a previous robots.net article.
