DaveNet: Restoring competition to the browser market.  Mike Donnelan: "Why is there nothing happening in the open-source community today that makes Microsoft go WTF?-running-crazy in a new direction --scurrying like cockroaches from their dark feast when somebody hit the light-- like they did back in 1994-95 when the web & Netscape first caught them off-guard?" Good question.I bet Aladdin will sell a lot of these. JD Lasica: "When should webloggers freely quote from private e-mails they've received?" Rich Santalesa: The war over 802.11x security. "With a utility like Marius Milner's nicely done Network Stumbler, pinpointing and cataloging any [access point] in the area is child's play." Gotta love it. Mike Swaine has a new macro. Where ever he would type "Microsoft" he now types "Illegal monopolist Microsoft." I wonder if he could program the temporarily defunct "Smart Tags" to do that substitution for him? Jon Udell: Web namespace design. "As I was writing last week's column, I checked my homepage for a reference to an earlier column, but the link was broken. Say what? I soon found, as some of you have also found, that a planned migration of Byte.com (from TechWeb's content management system to Dr. Dobb's CMS) had altered the former namespace." InternetWeek: "Customers of Exodus Communications are creating contingency plans as the Web hosting provider prepares to report results that underscore its declining financial health." Dan Gillmor: "Years after it would have made a difference, Microsoft is offering something that its own executives have called meaningless. If this is progress toward a competitive marketplace, I'm Steve Ballmer." He went on to say: "You can put makeup on Dracula, but he's still Dracula." Jim Roepcke said: "In a related story, He will no longer require rain in the weather forecast." MetaTalk: What's an RSS Channel?, and Why? Douglas Rushkoff: "The Internet is for amateurs." Joni Mitchell: "It always seems so righteous at the start, when there's so much laughter, when there's so much spark, when there's so much sweetness in the dark."
