I added a link to an old demo of Lilah along with a genre warning, er, note. It's all CharlyZ's fault.  6:59:03 PM | permalink | comment [] |

From a Dvorak article on file swapping. "If you had a machine that could make a new Lexus for $1,000, then why would you buy one from Toyota for $50,000?...You'd wonder why Toyota wouldn't use the same machine to make the car for $1,000." [via MrG]
Depends - would my $1000 Lexus have DRM (Driving Rights Management) so I could only drive it on Tuesdays, in the M5W 1E6 postal code, between 10 and 13 kmh? And of course I'd need thousands of new and diverse Lexi a year to keep me happy - wonder what the upgrade costs on that machine would be... 3:31:11 PM | permalink | comment [] |

Bring on Kyoto to save the great expressway of life

Worst Flash site ever? I heard a song I liked by Starsailor and noticed the vocal reminded me a lot of the lead singer from the Waterboys. So I thought I'd see if maybe this was a new band for him. By the time I finally got to the main page, waiting for any navigation menus to load - all dissolvy and transitiony and annoyingy - I decided I didn't care any more. Yeesh. 10:32:37 AM | permalink | comment [] |

If there's anyone out there using MSIE on Mac OS X, I've (finally) solved the embedded QuickTime puzzle so you should now be able to play RadioParadise using the controls on the right. 8:37:36 AM | permalink | comment [] |

ACM: Ubiquity - Ben Shneiderman
"The intellectual heart of the book is a new understanding of human needs defined by the relationships people have and the activities they carry out. Instead of trying to apply the latest new technology, we start by asking what is it that people want to do in their lives?"

After we discussed the political storm over Kyoto, my friend Mike,who lives in Alberta, sent me a link to the Alberta Residents League site to me. These guys are having a field day with Kyoto, using it as fodder for a separatist movement. Naturally I pointed out that Alberta would simply be reacquired as part of the master plan. 7:36:53 AM | permalink | comment [] |
