B-school "hacking" incident finally
fades from the news
04/14/2005 10:13 PMNo reporters have called in the last couple of weeks to ask about
the
Harvard Business School "hacking" incident, in which applicants
who edited URLs could discover whether or not they'd been
admitted. I had a tough time understanding why the story had
such long legs when, after all, quite a few Web sites over the past 15
years have had similar vulnerabilities. What was unusual about
the business schools is that they blamed their Web site users.
Every other publisher has secretly spanked its programmers, patched
the hole, and tried to pretend that it never happened. The
B-schools, however, somehow came up with the innovative idea of
blaming everything on the cut-and-pasters out there in the wider world
rather than on the dazed-by-donuts coders who couldn't get the
authorizations right for various pages. That's what made the
story different and what attracted so much press.
[This was not
actually the first time that HBS had trouble with the world of
commercial junkware. They outsourced their placement office
interview scheduling a few years back and the system managed to screw
up students desperate for jobs in a down economy.
The student newspaper ran a cartoon lampooning the administrators
responsible and the deans decided to fix the problem by
threatening to expel the editor of the newspaper for violating
Harvard's speech code (see

In an unusual combination of
computer games and intellectual property openness, software companies Epic Games and NVidia sponsored a two-day workshop on hacking
their own games. For a low cost
Unreal Univesity put attendees in contact with leading game
designers and
taught them how to enhance their abilities to create "mods,"
modified objects,
scenarios , or even new games from pre-existing
games.
Such a willingness to open up intellectual property to external
development is an unusual move in today's IP environment, as it risks
brand dilution and missed sales opportunities. Supporters of this
strategy claim it expands the overall market, which boosts
revenue.
The November event was hosted by the North Carolina State University Center for Digital Entertainment .

What's The Matter With Kansas?

An open letter to the
Citizens of Atwood. This past week, the residents of the small
town of Atwood, Kansas voted 984 to 113 to deny gay couples any rights
for their relationships (including hospital visitation). Now, the man
who set up the town's newspaper website has not only left Atwood, but
taken down the website and posted a (mostly) measured response to the
town in place of it. Will putting a human face on those being
discriminated against ever change the minds of some people, or is one
passage in the bible enough for some people to keep justifying their
bigoted ways?

many other airport situations, the company with the largest deal wins
the contract, even though I believe that's not in the airport's best
interest as a general policy. Sprint PCS will pay for the equipment,
but the airport will eventually own it. The cost per day: $9.95.
Sprint PCS hasn't announced unlimited monthly usage plans yet; they
have said they will resell access to their network to others. The
expense to build out the airport's Wi-Fi wasn't released....

Kansas City Public Library RSS Feeds
"I just got an IM from David King at from the Kansas City Public Library, who
linked me to the RSS Feeds
for the numerous subject
guides that they have on their web site. Not only do they have the
feeds, but they have an explanation on RSS, which is key. Congrats
to KCPL, David King, and his staff for being on the forefront of
content delivery via RSS." [Library
Stuff]
I've been waiting with great glee for this! At the Computers in
Libraries conference in March, David King did a great presentation
about KCPL's new web site. [Side note: I hope he's doing a write-up
somewhere about it so that everyone understands just how cool it
really is!]
One of the things that impressed me the most was their decision to
group content by subject matter, rather than by format. One
example David used was Harry Potter; rather than pointing to database
articles on the topic in the "databases" section, listing the book
titles in a separate section, linking to web sites in another section,
displaying related events in still another section, etc., KCPL made a
decision to group all of the HP stuff on a single page. That way, anyone looking for
Harry Potter info could find everything in one place. I really
like this approach, and it's one we've been trying to implement here
at SLS. It's nice to have a model to show others what I mean.
Anyway, during the presentation, David noted that he was going to
display subject information from external sites using RSS, which led
to the natural question of whether KCPL would be offering its own
feeds. I could tell by David's reaction to the question that the
answer was "definitely," so I've been patiently waiting to see this in
action.
Since I grew up in the Kansas City area, I'm especially thrilled to
see KCPL leading the way with this, and you can bet I'm going to show
off these links in my RSS class. I hope his administration is suitably
impressed, even though they probably don't understand the whole thing
(who does?). Congratulations to David and his staff!
