Sling dancing
Andrew Orlowski is having great fun slinging shit at blogs.
I'd say more about it; but fortunately, I don't have time.
[Later, when I still don't have time...] Folks, it ain't a biggie. Andrew likes to fuck with misplaced seriousness, among other things. Take it seriously and you score him a bulls-eye. If you're still inclined to feel all victimy about this thing, read the master and just be glad HE wasn't turned down for this thing.
And hey, sometimes reality is the best revenge. Yo Andrew! You missed the party, dude!
Burning Bloggers dinner thing
Dean suggests Katz's Deli for dinner in New York Thursday after Burning Questions.
Swap On
Judge: File-swapping tools are legal. A federal judge in Los Angeles has handed a stunning court victory to file-swapping services Streamcast Networks and Grokster, dismissing much of the record industry and movie studios' lawsuit against the two companies.
Thanks to Mary Lu for the pointer.
MaxiFication
John Patrick: There have been a number of stories lately suggesting that WiFi is being leapfrogged or replaced by a newer technology called "wider-fi" or "WiMax".
Freedom of repression
Merging Tech
Lots of ETCon coverage out there. For the latest check here, here, here, here, here, here and here. That last one is my Linux Joural blog, which will be getting an interface-lift shortly. It's a bit rocky on the mistake front because I'm using it as an opportunity to beef up my underpowered skills with vi.
More soon over there, then I fly home this afternoon.
If I get a chance, I'll put up some pix.
