Well, I managed to wake up at the crack of 6am so that I'd be semi-coherent when Robert and Victor (the leak finder) came by at 7am. They were right on time, too. Leak Discovery They pulled a big hose into the house and hooked it up to the hot water line. The idea was to blow air through the system and listen for leaks. Victor used what I can only describe as a plumber's stethoscope. It's like a normal...

Grr. Robert hadn't called or arrived by 5pm, so I called AC Plumbing to see what was up. Michelle told me he'd be by tonight. He had one thing to fix in Monterey and then he'd be back my way. No problem, I thought. If he's running late, he's running late. Then she called me back at about 5:45pm to let me know he hadn't made it to Monterey yet because a job in Los Altos ran behind. His new...

UK Telecommuters Risk Not Showering For
Weeks 04/15/2005 04:49 AM
After the US government decreed that telecommuti ng is vital to national security, a UK study found that working at home poses a higher security risk. The survey found that telecommuters are more lax with computer security procedures, and therefore expose their companies to computer virus and hacker threats. The survey also found that employees working at home were distracted by television and lonely. Worker issues are nothing new, whether the workers are sitting in cubes or in their living room. Telecommuting provides a more flexi ble working arrangement enabled by today's technology. Supposedly, "the only way to protect against the growing security threat was for businesses to take the responsibility off home workers". Well, that just seems obvious. If you just sent your workers home and didn't take responsibility for their security, isn't it obvious why there is a security threat? This study seems like an alarmist exercise. Oh wait, the study was done by Novell, who just so happens to sell security software. If only they had a solution for the loneliness and showering problem (though maybe those two problems are actually related).

Of all the personal computers to be unwrapped during the holiday season, more than 80 percent will be used to go online and search the Web's more than 92 million gigabytes of data (comparable to a 2 billion-volume encyclopedia). Getting online is the easy part, finding a useful Web page is a bit harder—keeping track of a useful Web page is another issue altogether.

People have devised many tricks—such as sending e-mails to themselves or jotting on sticky notes—for keeping track of Web pages, but William Jones and Harry Bruce at the University of Washington's Information School and Susan Dumais of Microsoft Research have found that often people don't use any of them when it comes time to revisit a Web page. Instead, they rely on their ability to find the Web page all over again.

The goal of this study is to understand better the ways in which people manage information for subsequent re-access and re-use. The study focuses on the management of information found on the Word Wide Web. Follow-on studies will look at similar problems and practices of personal information management for other information types including email and personal files (electronic and paper-based). The classic problem of information retrieval, simply put, is to help people find the relatively small number of things they are looking for (books, articles, web pages, CDs, etc.) from a very large set of possibilities. This classic problem has been studied in many variations and has been addressed through a rich diversity of information retrieval tools and techniques.

A follow-on problem also exists which has received relatively less study: Once found, how are things organized for re-access and re-use later on? What can be done to avoid the need to repeat the entire search process? We refer to this as the problem of Keeping Found Things Found. The current study addresses this problem in the context of World Wide Web use. The study focuses on use of the Web by managers, researchers, librarians and other information specialists. But it is expected that the results of the study will be relevant to most users of the Web.
