Nutcase wants to sue because he has same
name as video game character 03/14/2005 05:29 PM
Cory Doctorow: A guy who has the same name as a character in a Blair Witch video game is making crazy lawsuit threats against a gamer news-site because when you google his name, you get information about the game -- and he's sad because people think he's a nutcase!

My name is Robert MacNichol and this name is coming up on the Blair Witch Vol. II site at:

http://gr.bolt.com/games/codes/pc/blairwitch_vol2_coffin_walk.htm

I'd like some explination as to how this happened. I want my name off your public domain and diconnected with anything relating to your business. Please advise Rob...

Thank you. I'm wondering if my name shows up on some NAMBLA site---which I won't even click on out of curiosity. I got a couple of lawyers--I know--looking into it now. Usually they say forget it. not yet on this one. You're probably on track when you imply I can shove it if I don't like it. I got a scathing bunch of e-mails calling me a whack job because this popped up when someone typed in my name. Damned embarrasing. I wasn't threatening to sue. I was asking for some solution other than that. If I do. And if I win big--hahahahahahahahaha!--I'll remember you and the site...and your pointer about reality. Someone got rich when they spilled a cup pf coffee in there lap at McDonalds. I ought to be able to get my name off a whack site don't you think? My favorite all time game was River Raid by Atari(?) as I recall. The only other one I like is Pong , oh! and Brick Attac k--on my cell phone. I know a lady who "became" a witch. Blair Witch wadda .... wadda.... I can't even think of the term. The VN thing is me. A Canadian liblosrer? Naw. Helen who? I get your point...never the less wish me luck. I may be paving new ground on the WWW.

The gap between on-line and off-line

The gap between on-line and off-line 07/19/2004 11:30 AM

Jeremy Zawodny brings up an interesting point - which will be a major architectual issue moving forward.

It was triggered by ODDpost and the realization that full "in-line" browser apps are coming into reality. Folks like Laszlo Systems will also help make this future become true!

Here's Jereny post (my bit below......)

Oddpost, DHTML, and off-line Web Applications

As you may have guessed, I didn't know much about Oddpost until recently. But since they're now part of the collective, I had the opportunity to meet with a few of the Oddpost folks on Friday.

Aside from the getting an idea of how all their server-side stuff works (it's a classic example of "do the simplest thing that could possibly work" and I love that aspect of it), which was the real point of the meeting, I got to actually see the product first hand. And I left the meeting in amazement at what they were able to do using only a web browser and a lot of fancy DHTML wizardry. I mean, this thing looked and mostly acted like a real, native desktop application.

Really. A few times I caught myself thinking it was a "fat" client, only to look at the title bar and realize it was an IE window. But other than that, it was hard to tell at time. It's really that good.

The only downside to this I can see is that as the gap between "desktop" and "web based" applications closes, users won't understand the difference. The Oddpost client, for example, feels like a fancy mail and RSS application. But take it offline (such as cross-country flight) and suddenly it does a lot less that one might expect. Knowing that it's a web-based system with most of the data stored on the server, this comes as no shock to most anyone reading this. But to average folks like my Mom, well... that's probably a whole different story.

This makes me wonder how we're going to bridge the gap or if that gap will become irrelevant as the odds of having an Internet connection in any random location continue to increase.

[Jeremy Zawodny]

Marc's bit starts here....

So it's great to see major companies like Yahoo (and their brains like Jeremy) wake up to this issue - which first struck me - when I first discovered browsers - oh what was it - 10 years ago?

For all the benefits of the AlwaysOn world and browsers - they're useless once they're disconnected. Built-in features to download and cache content have been around and as the comments to Jeremy's post attest - lots of companies have come up with work arounds and trained their people in how to deal with this issue.

But clearly the time will come when "intelligent" virtual file systems will do the work or us!

Why put teh onus on the poor human to worry about:

- whether or not I'm on-line, within shouting distance of a Wifi connection of STILL on-line?
- where-ever the hell my files are? That's something for computers to worry about!
- whether something is cached, where it's coming from,l what my connection speed is - or anythign else having to do with bandwidth
- and finally - just amke it work - dammit!

It's time for technology to bend over and work for humans, rather than the other way around.

I dream of the day when major technological resources can be put towards solving this issue - and NO - you don't get to patent it!

I've seen others claim they have patents on this sort of functionality - or similar "Internet File System" kind of solutions.

Add them to the list of innovation stoppage - and send it to the EFF.

« In the fog, at the Arabia terminus of tram 6, is Light X by Kazushi Nakada which was unveiled on 25 January 2005. »

There is no X in Light X and there is precious little light as well. I was lured to the end of tram 6 just to see something glow in the dark by a blurb I saw in a neighbourhood paper and I was sorely disappointed. Why bother spending some outrageous amount of money on a bit of public artwork that involves light if you place it in an area where street lights drown out any light it might actually be emitting which, in this case, was scant? The fog and the black and white film make it look a lot more interesting than it actually is.

The apartment building next to the big fluorescent tube of Arabia was a nice surprise. On two sides of the building were some lights that vaguely suggested a caduceus but the roof had a really funky brightly coloured spinning air vent that could have been designed by Gaudí. I didn't take any pictures of it as I was on my way somewhere and didn't take my tripod with me, but its uniqueness in a sea of boring modern glass and brick featureless buildings certainly made me very curious to know more about it.

And, a few new books of interest. I'm going to be very sad when shipping costs make it just too expensive to bother ordering books from Amazon at 25%-50% less than Akateeminen prices with the exchange factored in. I think that will be very soon.

• Supers tud: Or How I Became a 24-Year-Old Virgin ∞ More comedy goodness from the guy who wrote Freaks and Geeks which has such stunning realistic detail from the era of my own childhood that even if it sucks it'll be a lovely bit of nostalgia.
• Freako nomics : A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything ∞ Me and George Carlin ask goofy questions like this all the time so maybe there's a new career waiting for me as a brilliant economist.
• Chatte r: Dispatches from the Secret World of Global Eavesdropping ∞ Everything you always knew about Eschelon but didn't feel like asking the NSA about.
• Assass ination Vacation ∞ Sarah Vowell, I love you. I miss crazy road trips to random US destinations like carhenge. I wish I would have thought of something as morbid as this. :)
• Cultur e Smart! Finland ∞ A natural progression from the Culture Shock! series, the Cult ure Smart! guides look to be cashing in on the business traveller market. It'll probably be great comedy, like reading Virtual Finland's website after living here for a while, since it has sections titled 'Sex and the City' and 'High Culture' but since it's written by a Finn maybe the hyperbole won't be quite so thick.
• Black and White Photography, Third Revised Edition ∞ Finally, after a year of waiting....
• Edward Teller: The Real Dr. Strangelove ∞ Teller was a very strange and interesting man.

Lilia Efimova (fresh from her trip to Moscow) writes.....

Martin picks up my yesterday's note about the need to change my usual "everything web-based" working style since I got TabletPC and explains his struggles and solutions for synchronising online and offline data. Given lots of interests we share it's not surprising that Martin reframes it as more general question:

I wonder how Personal Information Management Software will develop in the future. How are we going to cope with the different spaces we are in and the accessibiloty of our online and offline data? Shall we just put everything on the web and hope for permanent broadband connectivity anywhere? (Nice idea, but how are you going to survive the next five years while this is not an option?) How are you managing your data? Where do you keep it? How do you make it accessible, for you, for others?

(If your story is long and you don't want to post it as a comment do email me! I can put together some of your writings in a seperate entry or republish your story as an own article if you like.)

I'd love to hear your thoughts as well. I guess it's not much about the software, but our ways of using it :)

[Mathemagenic ]

YES! It's always about how we use software, it's just that the nerds have so much to say about what they're doing - they often lose track of why.

I've started to use an Xdrive account - to back everything up and have it readily accessible - if I don't have my laptopwith me.

I've switched to MT for blogging and I have an ODDpost account for email - which I use as my backup mail.

But I still have Outlook as my primary account and make CD backups of everything on my portable laptop. So I'm still tethered to the off-line model - even though I've been on-line since 1994 with ISDN or better.

I've actually gotten a lot of work done while traveling - as I WASN'T able to blog and check email every :10 minutes.
