First thoughts about Panther: Address
Book...
10/29/2003 12:10 AMAddress Book under OSX has never been a particularly impressive
application, but it's just about worked as a system wide piece of kit.
Panther brings with it a number of changes and improvements and a
couple of nasty unprovements too. There's some functionality here that
I can't categorically say wasn't in Jaguar, so bear with me if
I foul something up:
- Every card in Address Book can have a picture associated with it.
This is not new. However previously you were just able to pick up a
picture and drop it whole onto the hole allocated for it, where it
would sit greatly diminished in size and essentially unusable.
The version in Panther introduces the lovely resize and crop
functionality that's been in iChat AV since the beta. Very
nice indeed;
- The edit functionality now lasts when you change cards
which is a good change. Previously editing an card meant entering it
individually and clicking on the edit button. Now the edit button will
remain depressed until you release it. It's not the UI approach I'd
have taken, but it pretty much works;
- The edit interface itself is a bit of a dog's dinner. The
previously understated and probably not very clear grey + and
- buttons have now become garishly red and green, the edit
screen radically indents everything and moves stuff around to the
extent that it's difficult to see what's going on and where your
information has been moved to. An approach that highlighted the
information rather than the labels might have been better;
- Also noticed for the first time is the 'send updates'
functionality - which I'm sure has been there for ages. It appears to
be a way of informing everyone in your address book of any and all
changes to your personal address card. I'm interested, but too scared,
to see how this might work...

Useful Applescripts for coding PHP in

Useful Applescripts for coding PHP in

12/12/2003 07:48 PMAt
work I spend a lot of time
coding, which means I also spend a lot of time using

Applescript integration.
As a PHP coder, I thought I'd share some of the great Applescripts
that are out there to enhance your coding experience, and hopefully
save you some time.
VoidFil
lPHP
This is a PHP code completion script. Type the beginning of function
name, hit F1 (or whatever key you've assigned it to), and it provides
a list a potential matches (e.g. type
html and you can
choose from
html_entity_decode,
htmlentities
or
htmlspecialchars).
Search php.net for selection
It does what it says on the tin. Highlight a PHP function or keyword,
hit the assigned key combination, and it fires up a browser window and
searches through the manual on
php.net
for the function or keyword. Very useful if you've not got a PHP
reference book handy.
PHP Syntax Check
Written by
John Gruber (a
former Bare Bones developer, so he obviously knows a thing or two),
this flexible script can scan your document for PHP parsing errors
(highlighting the problematic lines). The script can also replace the
built-in HTML Document Syntax command, so it can check the syntax of
your HTML also. Pretty nifty huh?

Book Publishers Selling Direct - Pissing
Off Book Retailers
Book Publishers Selling Direct - Pissing
Off Book Retailers
02/13/2004 05:52 AMOne of the struggles that companies have as distribution and sales
mechanisms change is handling legacy channel conflict issues. Dell
became huge by selling direct to customers, but when rival Compaq
started to move in that direction, their retail partners freaked out -
and Compaq had to scale back their plans. It appears that book
publishers are now going through the same process. They've realized
that if someone is looking for info about certain books on their site,
it makes sense to also offer them a chance to buy it. However, it's
pissing off retailers, who don't
want to hear that their suppliers are competing with them. Retailers
say a reasonable compromise would be having the publishers point to
the retailers, which was my first response as well. However, then it
becomes a political situation of who do you link to and why? There's
also the fact that this makes for a less enjoyable consumer
experience. I know that, more than once, I've been annoyed at online
sites where I go for info on buying a product, but when I try to buy
am given a big list of retailers instead of a way to buy right away.

Repeat After Me: A Book is a Book
Repeat After Me: A Book is a Book
07/13/2004 03:49 PMThis
NY
Times piece compares Amazon.com with Napster. Huh?
The odd logic is that used books sold online are cutting into sales of
new books, which may or may not be true. But the Napster comparison is
ludicrous for some obvious reasons, including the fact that an actual
book is not a digitized song, and that if I'm holding a specific book
you are not holding the same copy.
The Times piece is about the "doctrine of first sale," which basically
says that once a work is sold, it's gone from the creator's control.
The purchaser of the item can resell it, give it away or throw it in
the garbage, if that's what he wants to do.
Copyright holders have never liked this very much, and I can
sympathize. Visual artists who see escalating prices for works they
sold at bargain when they were starting out tend to really not like
this situation. But the doctrine of first sale is vastly better than
the alternative.
The idea that the copyright owner should get a cut every time a book
changes hands is a Pandora's box. It's also just what copyright
industry would like to see happen, and that's what the entertainment
industry is trying to create with its various digital restrictions
technologies.
The industry wants a pay-per-use world of arts and letters. Resist.
And let's please not equate selling a used book with copyright
infringement.
