Directory: ImageInfo: Movable Type plugins just keep getting
better and better. Camera geeks rejoice (and by "camera geeks," I
mean "Rob").
Display image EXIF data along with image on weblog page.
Especially useful with digital camera pictures, which often store a
lot of EXIF data (time stamp, f/stop, shutter speed, ISO setting,
white balance, etc.) inside each picture.
If you have no idea what EXIF is, here's a site for you.
EXIF stands for Exchangeable Image File Format, and is a
standard for storing interchange information in image files,
especially those using JPEG compression. Most digital cameras now use
the EXIF format.

: Look, I know this is a stupid extension, but it just cracks me
up. I have four browser windows open right now: Mozilla Weblizard,
Superphoenix, Powerlemur, and Spaceoyster. It's tough to find a laugh
like that at 7:31 a.m.
[This plugin] modifies the product name in the browser
titlebar, Help menu, and About dialog titlebar....Generates random
names using multiple name lists...Allows you to quickly modify the
image in the About dialog.
Check our this
preferences screenshot. I admire the enourmous amount of work
that went into the creation of utter uselessness.
Here let me generate a new name really quick...Mozilla Webnarwhal!
Ha! That my friends, is true humor.

AutoLink Again
03/14/2005 05:56 PMAfter a day of severe blogospheric battering, I went and spent some
quality time with the Google Toolbar beta. Summary: I went over the
top, was too nasty, and shouldn’t have fulminated about legal
action, and I’m sorry. But, I still believe this feature as
positioned now is either evil or stupid or both. But, it could be
fixed. But, it doesn’t matter that much because AutoLink is
actually kind of useless and anyhow, the Google Toolbar is doomed...

Google Toolbar AutoLink
Google Toolbar AutoLink
03/14/2005 04:24 PMI'm a bit wary about throwing myself in the middle of the whole Google Toolbar AutoLink business (Dan Gillmor has a good summary and lots of
trackbacks to opinions, pro and con), but I'm sort of dumbfounded that
so many people are so vehemently against it...at least for the reasons
being given. The three main points I've heard articulated by those
opposed to the feature are:
1. Browsers and toolbars should not modify the content or layout of
Web pages...they should render them only as stored on the Web
server.
2. Microsoft tried to do this with Smart Tags in
Windows XP and everyone hated it so why are we willing to give
Google a pass with a similar feature?
3. Google can unfairly use their growing clout to exploit AutoLink
users.
I'll address the second point first because it's sort of beside the
point and not an argument at all. One of the big reasons why people
were so upset about Smart Tags is that Smart Tags were on by
default in early preview releases of IE. The browser was
automatically rewriting every single page you loaded, adding links
here and there. I agree that this sucks (although users may become
used to things like this in the future and not think it's such a big
deal), but AutoLink is not on by default. It's optional...you have to
specifically push a button to make something happen.
But the main reason people seem to be up in arms about AutoLink is
that Google is modifying the content and display of other people's
content and that browsers and toolbars should not be allowed to do
that. Aside from the first part of that statement being factually
incorrect (more on that below), browsers and toolbars already modify
other people's content and no one really complains about it. In fact,
people love it:
- Firefox, Safari, Google Toolbar, IE, and several other
browsers/toolbars all give end users the option to block JavaScript
popups, which typically contain ads. This very much goes against the
intention of the content provider and is a clear example of software
that modifies a site from how it was intended to be displayed. But
users love it so browser/toolbar makers include the
feature.
- Browsers allow users to use custom stylesheets when
browsing sites, turn off JavaScript on pages, and browse without
viewing images or other multimedia files.
- There are tons of
bookmarklets and browser extensions that let people modify the page
they're viewing in interesting ways (this
one inserts links to Feedster on NY Times and WaPo article
pages).
- Since the early days of the web right on up to the
present, browsers have purposely misrendered badly written HTML so
that people could view the pages instead of getting junk or a blank
page.
All of these features break the supposedly cardinal sin of "thou
shalt not modify the content providers content from the way it was
intended by them to be viewed" and I don't hear anyone complaining
about it. The fact is, once a user downloads a copy of a content
provider's web page from their server, the page becomes just that, a
copy. As a user, I should be able to use whatever software is
available to me to manipulate, modify, or otherwise remix that copy
which I've downloaded for my own personal use. If I can, for my own
personal use, photocopy magazine articles, rip my CDs to mp3, make
backup copies of my DVDs, and scribble in the margins of books, surely
I can do the same with copies of web pages I've downloaded.
Now, if you're against AutoLink because you think Google is
becoming too big, they're evil, they're abusing their power, or they
bought another blog company instead of yours, then that's fine. Just
be up front about why you're upset. It's a trust issue. Do you trust
Google's software to do what it says its going to do and not take
advantage of you? If the answer is no, don't use it. But if you're
saying that Google should not provide this feature at all and that
consenting adults in the privacy of their own homes can't choose to
use the feature themselves, I don't think that's a good deal for the
users. As content providers, let's not try and reach into our readers'
computers and dictate what they can or can't do with the copies of our
content that they've downloaded for their personal use...let's leave
that sort of wishful thinking to the nutballs in
Hollywood.
Autolink URLs in MT Entries
Autolink URLs in MT Entries
08/16/2004 05:58 PMOne of the things I really hate about reading newspaper Web sites
is they often include URLs but don’t
link them. So you have to copy and paste to open them (or just
rightclick with the right Firefox
extension).
I don’t want my site to look like a big, dumb newspaper. So I
wrote a filter using Brad’
;s regex plugin to autolink URLs in
entries. It hasn’t been extensively tested but it has worked for
a the half-dozen or so entries in the Project X blog.
Install the regex plugin and then add this to the top of your
templates…
<MTAddRegex name="autolink">s![>
](http://[^<" ]+)!<a href="$1">$1</a>
!g</MTAddRegex>
Then add the attribute regex="autolink" to
your MTEntryBody and MTEntry more tags in your templates:
<MTEntryBody regex="autolink">.

Google autolink debate frenzy
Google autolink debate frenzy
03/14/2005 05:45 PMI'm too mired in book work to offer much besides pointers, but here
are pointers galore on the important controversy over the
Google toolbar Autolink
feature -- in which Google offers to overlay its own links to certain
types of information that it finds on everyone else's Web pages. In
2001 Microsoft proposed putting something similar right into its
Internet Explorer browser, and Walt Mossberg and many others blew the
whistle on it. Links should be considered part of the vocabulary of
Web content; inserting links is tantamount to tampering with the
content.
This time it's been Dave
Winer who's been blowing the whistle insistently. Here's Dave's case against
Autolink. The opposite point of view -- it's a tool, I should be
able to use any tools I want once content lands on my screen! -- is
smartly summarized by Cory Doctorow here and
here. Paul
Boutin in Slate, and Tim Bray, also offer good, careful perspectives.
Me, I think the issue is fundamentally political more than
technical; Google is now powerful enough that it needs to learn to
tread more lightly in areas like this. My hunch is the Google-ites,
encapsulated in their "let's bring all the world's information to
light!" mission, simply had no idea what an ethical morass they have
plopped themselves into. If the past is any indication, they're nimble
enough to step out.

03/14/2005 05:28 PMI can't believe I'm joining this discussion, but everywhere I read
about Google's AutoLink, I never see the essential detail that Google
did right: links are only added after the user pressed the AutoLink
button. It's not a toggle button, you have to press the button every
time you visit a new page for the links to show up. ?
