JavaServer Faces
12/17/2004 06:34 PMJavaServer Faces helps streamline your web development through the use
of UI components and events. JSF components (buttons, text boxes,
etc.) live between user requests. JSF also synchronizes user input
with application objects, automating another tedious aspect of web
development. By Manning Publications 1123

Mirrors.
Documentarian
Bruce
Jackson found "a group of about two hundred 3x4"
identification photographs made between 1914 and 1937... in a drawer
in the Arkansas penitentiary in the summer of 1975"; this (
slideshow) is the online record of an exhibition.
It is impossible
to look at these images and not think about the persons depicted
there. But, save for one fact that is a given—and what we find in or
infer from these images—we know nothing about those persons, and never
will. The given is that they are all prisoners: for whatever reason,
they have been deprived of liberty, the single piece of enduring proof
of which is the image at which we presently gaze. The conclusions we
draw, the feelings we have, the narratives we suppose—they are all our
own. The images are mirrors, resonating with aspects of our selves we
perhaps never before encountered.
Many of them are
haunting;
this one
has been turned by time into a work of art. (Via
Ramage.)

Facewalls don't have to be just of
Faces......
08/03/2004 02:58 PMThe grid of images UI is one of teh most effective ways of
communicating LOTS of stuff - all at the same time. Videowall
mentality permeates through this grid - and can be used effectively
for a PeoplePlace, a set of Top Albums you're
listening to or practially any sort of high-load scalability
challenge one might have.
I usually don't pontificate about UI theory - but this screams out
to be talked about. I used to blog allot a couple of years ago about
Faces. Well now I'm gonna start blogging allot about FaceWalls.
Everyone should use these image grids - for new kinds of
micro-content!
It's a wonderful, scalable interface metaphor.

last.FM uses the image
grid effectively to let folks know what albums you're listening to.
This coolio scalable interface approach works subliminally -
regardless of what language you speak or what cult you adhere to.
Eventually we'll have loads of open source templates to let folks
roll over a thumbnail image and have it zoom up to reveal details of
what that information is - and as fast as you can move your mouse,
you're onto the next thumbnail image.
This is what I mean by "letting Apple do our R&D for us."
We all have seen the Mac OS X icon dock zoom up and down - now we
ALL can use that lick for our 'FaceWall' browsing.
Faces of London
Faces of London
02/05/2005 10:18 PMWithout intending to, I ended up taking photos of a bunch of faces
while I was in London. Here are
some of them:

It's been awhile since I've seriously picked up a camera (not that
I was ever that serious about it) and I'm a little rusty. I'm hoping
to get in lots more practice in the coming months, so the quality
should hopefully improve.

blind: Imagine living in a world in which you are surrounded by
blank faces. You see
people all around you, but you
can't
recognize them by their faces,
only by context,
clothing, and hair. You
don't
recognize your neighbors when you see them in the grocery store,
and you couldn't pick your co-workers' faces out of a line-up. You
have to learn
speci
al coping methods to get through your daily social activities.
This is what it is like to have
prosopagnosia,
or face blindness.

potential aspects of Kerry's foreign policy. The article itself is
thought-provoking and erudite, and of equal if not more interest is
the
3-part interview with
Senator Joseph Biden (D) of
Delaware, ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
Part One is here, with Parts Two and Three to be released
later this week. Biden speaks about foreign policy in an overbearing,

The Many Faces Of iTunes For Windows
The Many Faces Of iTunes For Windows
12/22/2004 01:13 AMMicrosoft Windows have a philosophy, it seems, to offer one
thousand and one UI choices to do any single thing. This may not be
the best UI implementation, but, hey, it's interesting that Apple's
iTunes is taking this philosphy to heart.
On the Mac, you can
show iTunes as a full-fledge window, as a mini-window, or hide the
iTunes window.
On Windows, here's what you can do...
1)
Display as a full-fledge window, just like the Macintosh
version.
2) Display as a mini-window, just like the Macintosh
version.
3) Minimize the window, so that it appears as a button
on your task bar.
4) Also show the iTunes icon on the system
tray, so that you can right-click on it to access common iTunes menu
items. (To enable this option, open the preference dialog, choose
"Advanced", and select "Show iTunes icon in system tray." Now,
minimize the iTunes windows.)
5) Show the iTunes icon on the
system tray, but don't show the iTunes button on the task bar. (To
enable this option, open the preference dialog, choose "Advanced", and
select both "Show iTunes icon in the system tray" and "Minimize iTunes
window to system tray." Now, minimize the iTunes windows.)
6)
Don't show the iTunes icon on the system tray and don't show the
iTunes button on the task bar. Instead, show a mini-mini player on the
task bar itself. (To enable this option, open the preference dialog,
choose "Advanced", and unselect "Show iTunes icon in the system tray."
Right click on an empty area of your task bar, select the "Toolbars"
sub-menu, and then select the "iTunes" menu item. Now, minimize the
iTunes window.)

Celebrity faces as used-gum targets
05/17/2004 06:11 AMGum-posters featuring celebrity faces are appearing in London, and
locals are encouraged to dispose of their wads by sticking them up,
rather than dropping them underfoot.
Londoners are being urged to stick their chewing gum on celebrity
posters rather than dropping it on the streets.
Ealing Council hopes posters featuring Shane Richie, Jordan and Peter
Andre among others will prove a more tempting target in Acton, west
London.
Posters have removable sheets which will be changed six days a week to
stop the gum building up...
It is estimated that UK local authorities spend £150m a year
tackling the problem.
