In the spirit of fuller liner notes and proper attribution, I'd like to take a few minutes to point out a few things I am particularly grateful for -- specific accomplishments of specific Creative Commoners that may not have yet been attributed fully enough to them.

(I tried to start doing this a few months ago, but work pulled me back into the vortex.)

Matt Haughey has been at Creative Commons since April 2002; we've worked together since the very beginning. Anyone who knows Matt's presence and prominence online knows that Creative Commons' early growth -- among bloggers, in particular -- would not have been the same without him. He's been the ideal liaison to social software developers and companies (like Flickr), and less visibly and glamorously, the backbone to CC's own internal communications tech. He's also, on top of the regular and heavy stream of UI and information design work, done hundreds if not thousands of tight-deadlined designs, at all possible hours of the day, for things as different as CD covers (e.g.) and Featured Commoner spreads (e.g.).

Matt has also, with DeMaggio-like consistency, pointed blog readers to some of the coolest Creative Commons content with his Featured Content of the Week posts (e.g.: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.)

Matt took our website from looking like this, to this, to this, to this, to the site's stunning design today.

This speaks for itself.

And in case it doesn't, and in case I haven't said it expressly enough (which I probably haven't), thanks to Matt for all of this and more.

TiVo: you can only innovate if the NFL and MPAA say so

Today's Washington Post carries a jaw-dropping article about TiVo's latest fight [via waxy]. Tivo ToGo was announced at CES in January of this year, with a planned Fall release, but if the Movie Industry and the NFL get their way, it will never see the light of day.

What is most shocking about the objections is that TiVo ToGo is an already crippled version of something TiVo hackers and users of software PVRs like Windows Media Center and Snapstream have been doing for years now. See that huge ugly plastic dongle pictured in the upper right? That's your user "key" that makes sure only your TiVo programs can play on your PC or laptop. I haven't seen or tested this functionality out, but I'm sure those programs are encrypted to the point that they are unplayable on any device that doesn't also have the hardware key plugged in. I wouldn't be surprised if the video format is a proprietary one as well. TiVo is also talking about adding a show swapping feature, which is great news, but you will have a limit of ten other devices that you can share with (ReplayTV used to let you swap with an unlimited amount of other users, which got them sued until they went bankrupt and removed it).

Simply put, compared to how Microsoft's offerings work, and a slew of small software packages for the PC and Mac that record TV, the TiVo ToGo feature is a crippled lockbox. You won't be sharing shows on Kazaa anytime soon with TiVo ToGo features.

The NFL and MPAA are attacking both the show extraction feature, claiming it will allow programs to propigate online, and the show sharing features, claiming TiVo owners will share them with more than their friends. Their nightmare scenario is that maybe, possibly, someday someone you don't know might ask for a copy of an obscure program you happened to have recorded and saved. Oh, the horror of it all!

For no other reason than it points out how insane this is, here are some priceless quotes:

TiVo was one of 13 companies that asked the FCC for approval, arguing that its copy-protection system met the requirements. The Motion Picture Association of America, Hollywood's lobbying arm, and the NFL then filed objections to TiVo's plan.

First off, how much does is suck that TiVo can't just think of new features and build them, but they have to ask for permission from the FCC? Can't a company innovate without asking everyone if it is ok first? Also, why is the MPAA and NFL going after TiVo when Microsoft's Media Center Edition allows you to not only share your programs with other PCs and laptops, but it also spawned an entire market for portabl e TV devices like this one? Where were the movie industry goons when those products were announced and released?

This other quote puts a light on how screwed up the NFL is:

The NFL, meanwhile, is concerned that a user could send a copy of a game to someone in another time zone, where the game is blacked out.

Only the NFL would go so far out of their way to make sure their most ardent fans can't see the football games they want to see.

I sincerely hope TiVo weathers this legal storm, the products are already loaded with enough protection to keep the movie industry's worst fears from taking place, though I suspect if the show sharing features get into TiVo, the maximum number of shareable devices will most likely be something like 3 other boxes instead of 10.

Gmail accounts go up for bid: I suppose there would be some cache value in having "bob@gmail.com" for an address.

Beta testers invited by Google to take part in its new free e-mail service also received invitations to give to another person, but many are being auctioned on eBay, so far fetching bids as high as $61. [...]

Currently, 42 testers have listed their invitations on eBay, with one offering to sell an additional invitation outright — for a mere $199.

Well, not literally. But I need to get a sufficient volume of mail into jzawodn@gmail.com that I can get a better feel for what it's going to do. You know, to see past the gigabyte and all. Sure, I'll probably dig up some stuff from my archives and send it over, but it'd be more interested to use recent mail. Of course, as a byproduct of putting my address here, I'm sure to get actual spam as well. That'll help...

Anti-Gmail Bill Now Allows Gmail


Anti-Gmail Bill Now Allows Gmail 05/26/2004 01:35 PM
Last 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.

Matt gets two offers


Matt gets two offers 12/09/2003 01:24 PM

Matt Goyer talks about interviewing at both Microsoft and Amazon. Congrats Matt on getting offered two jobs! I've heard from a few other people who went through both interviews and didn't get offered anything. The job market up here in the Pacific Northwest is still a pretty difficult one to manuever. Maryam interviewed again last week with Microsoft and hasn't gotten an offer. So, to get two offers is pretty good indeed. We had dinner with Matt the night of his interviews and we both could see why he'd get two offers. He's bright. Interesting. Nice to be around. Can't wait to have more dinners with him.

Marc’ ;s Voice. I wish I understood everything Marc writes because then I'd be a millionaire. But please, someone get that man a <blockquote>! [Photo Matt]

Dude - blockquotes are so HTML.  Have I told you how much I hate HTML?

How we were set backwards in 1994 - afer all those years of moving forward towards beinging media into people's lives? Napster kind of made upf or that - but in general - the HTML web is a straw sipping dial-up waiting, lo-res experience.

I'm sorry - I just can't draw myself into accepting that - I'm too dam old.

Anyway - I owe you a phone call - but I through I'd spell out in public what we'll talk about in private (after I get back from seeing my middle son star in "Oklahoma".)

1.  Folks have been asking for FOAF in WordPress.  You joined our FOAFnet Wiki - so you must be interested.  BTW I'm totally jazzed that you're supporting ESF and ENT!

2. I also have been dealing with other blogging tools who have been trying to figure out "how much" FOAF to support.

3.  Some blogging tools are adding friends capabiltiies, others adding groups, still others have blog tools coupled to content sites and game databases.  So it's happening. Just as I predicted.  For every kind of everything - they'll be a social network/digital identity play associated with it.

4.  So you get to decide how far you want WordPress to go.  You can just make your FOAF the 'About Me' page. That's cool.  Info on the blogger, easily discoverable. No more confusion over who's the blogger (unless of course the blogger doesn't want anybody to KNOW who he/she is.)

5.  Or you can go further.  Build basic friends or groups - or go whole hog - build the entire PeopleAggregator within WordPress.  Commons page.  Public and Private pages.  Group, multiple relationships, multiple personalities.  All for the taking.

Matt Jones: refactor the UI


Matt Jones: refactor the UI 05/22/2004 02:38 AM
My pal Matt "Blackbelt" Jones, a user-experience wonk at Nokia, has written a guest-rant on new UIs for the pervasive age over at Warren Ellis's Die Puny Humans.
Drill the digital ground and you'll see that the surface strata of interface has not moved as quickly as what lies beneath.

The shape has changed. We've moved from the discrete, fixed computing of the mainframe, mini and pc to the fluid, agile, grid.

The stuff has changed. We send emotional bits and digital pheremones as much as we send practical packets.

The scale has changed. The corpus has swollen while the skin stayed the same. We stored data the equivalent of 37,000 times the library of congress on our hard drives in 2002, and shunted 3 times that much around the net[1].
