Microsoft Innovation
OK, knock off the jokes about oxymorons. Today, on my daughter's 1998-vintage computer, I installed Windows 98. I had completely forgotten the pain involved with that particular task. IBM hardware, as ordinary off-the-shelf as it could be, and the install doesn't recognize the onboard video card. No Internet, and hardly any other machines in the house have a floppy. Ungh. Several hours later, I'm finished.

Today, we basically take it for granted that you just pop in an OS CD and install away. Not terribly long ago, care and feeding of a computer was an intensely geeky proposition. Only recently has it become mainstream. For Desktop Linux, the bar has been raised much, much higher. This is a good thing. -m
Scottsdale Named "Most Unfaithful" City in Metro Phoenix

Blame Scottsdale's bar-to-resident ratio, its history with failed reality television series , or the clear lack of "super hot" adulterers in any other part of the city for its new title: Results were tallied by USA Today according to membership per capita to the online affair service AshleyMadison.com , whose slogan "Life is short.

Newsflash
I've been nominated for an InfoWorld Innovators Award. More details here later. The results will be announced here on May 24. -m
Lost Songs
Apparently, the Apple store does not let you redownload songs you've paid for. Despite the "FairPlay" DRM, that the tracks are only authorized to play on up to 3 computers. It would be trivial for them to allow this, but they prefer to have their customers pay again. Since you're not buying any physical media, you'd think they'd attempt to make it a little more robust.

The system seems to conspire against you. Tracks on your iPod aren't visible as files. Then when you connect your iPod to a newly-formatted Mac, it cheerfully offers to wipe all the tracks off your iPod. So there's a point there where you still have the track--could even listen to it--but have no choice but to erase it. Grr. -m
Congrats to Eric Meyer
On the forthcoming CSS book, 2nd edition. Another thing for the reading queue. -m
Is enterprise search heating up?
Uh, yes. Link: John Batelle's searchblog

"It made me think, and I realized that in fact, enterprise search will probably rise again, and end up being one of the coolest things in search in the next few years. Why? Because it sucks so badly now, fixing it will be the kind of 10X revelation we had when we moved from Yahoo to Google in 1998-99."

That's 'away from country'.

Minimal updates for a while: One week in Southern France, for a W3C meeting. Yes, work can be pretty demanding sometimes. -m
Sharing vs. Sales
Record Industry Execs: File sharers are a bunch of freeloaders. Sharing hurts sales.
Geeks, etc.: File sharers are samplers. Sharing helps sales.
Ed Felten: Yes.

This seems dead on. The same dynamics apply to books available under an open content license as well as for sale. -m
Seeing XForms Inside Out
At the O'Reilly Open Source Convention in Portland, come see my presentation Seeing XForms Inside Out:: Inside an XForms Validator (Thurs July 29). Whether you're just learning about XForms, or been working with it already, you will find some interesting insights by looking at XForms from the perspective of a validation tool.

If you can make it for the full week, I also have a half-day tutorial on Monday (July 26). Check it out! -m
Thanks ^ 4
Of the 7 regular readers around here, four generous souls (none of whom I'd met previously) offered to volunteer to review my Hack that will be in _XML Hacks_.

In no particular order:

Stephen had great comments on the overall flow and structure. Lots of markers where stuff was good too, not just the bad.

Patrick had too had good comments, especially on the ever-important opening lines. Lots of detailed suggestions and great advice.

Eric helped me see my blind spots, where I was skipping over material too fast.

Daniel had lots of detailed comments, almost copyeditor class. Exactly what I needed.

Good job and thanks to all!

Write IE extensions in XForms
The indefatigable Mark Birbeck pointed me to this-- a toolkit to write IE sidebars in pure XForms. Included are Amazon and Google search. This is a sign of changes to come in the development of Internet Apps. -m
Paddy O'Furniture puts its customers first

When Tony Schindler was in high school in Minnesota, he told his father, who owned a small home-furniture store, that he wanted to take over the family business.
