He's right that everything we do is about presence. Our scaling strategy is Apache. (In other words static HTML and XML where ever possible, and using CPU cycles on the desktop.) Our model is publishing, even if it's behind a firewall inside a corporation. We can't fit our view of the world into Office apps. Neither can Microsoft, imho. Scott McNealy is a loser because he confronts Microsoft on the old battleground. There are so many ways to zig, why keep beating your head against the brick wall.

A simple response. &lt;a href=&quot;http://davenet.userland.com/2000/06/19/whereDoISendTheMoney&quot;&gt;Where&lt;/a&gt; do I send the money? I want to buy music. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.yil.com/columns/column.asp?columnist=ebert&amp;date=020401&amp;page=01&quot;&gt;I am not a pirate&lt;/a&gt;. I can afford to pay for what I use. But I won't buy it through the pre-Internet distribution system, or a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dictionary.com/search?q=hobbled&quot;&gt;hobbled&lt;/a&gt; Internet that's designed to behave like the old system. Also, once I've paid for the music, I want to use it on any device I want to. And if I like a song I want to play it for people I care about so they can learn about me, and also be inspired by the music. And since he raised the subject of slavery, I insist that &lt;i&gt;some&lt;/i&gt; of the money flow to the creative people. " created="Tue, 26 Mar 2002 18:38:31 GMT"/>
		<outline text="Eisner is dangerously out on a limb. Napster wasn't a narrow thing. There were tens of millions of users.

		<outline text="Music is important, not just for its monetary value. The philosophy of cynics is that there is no magic to music. Too bad for them, but music &lt;i&gt;does&lt;/i&gt; have healing powers. If you think about it, it's like &lt;a href=&quot;http://davenet.userland.com/1997/03/03/DonsAmazingPuzzle&quot;&gt;Don's Amazing Puzzle&lt;/a&gt;, so obvious, you have to work not to see it. Have you ever listened to a song from childhood and gotten goosebumps? Where does that music take you? Deep inside yourself, to places normal existence can't easily reach. The feelings, for me, are pleasure and relaxation. I feel it physically. The music I was getting from Napster is stuff that Eisner's distribution system &lt;i&gt;doesn't carry dammit.&lt;/i&gt; Being able to walk through my past over the Internet, through music, is a kind of therapy I want to share with everyone. Music has unique power to heal. So what's in the way of this experience? A few people who are worth hundreds of millions of dollars and want more. Yuck. The irony of it is, if they would get behind this instead of fighting it, they'd probably be able to milk it for even more money than the old distribution system. I never liked buying music in a store. I really would like to buy music on the Internet. Really. How much money? How many ways are there to spend money that bring happiness? Not that many Michael." created="Tue, 26 Mar 2002 20:14:49 GMT"/>

Through inclusion we will be able to seamlessly incorporate other directories. The bootstrap will be more human than technological. Our directories are built out of &quot;OPML&quot;. Any outliner can be used to edit branches of any directory if it supports OPML and if the documents are stored on the Web.

		<outline text="I read the &lt;a href=&quot;http://radio.weblogs.com/0102755/&quot;&gt;Flash Blog&lt;/a&gt; every time it updates. Something like Radio is happening over there. Radio uses bare-bones lowest-common-denominator HTML, with tweaks so it'll run in as many browsers as possible (even so, our biggest problem browser, MSIE/Mac &lt;a href=&quot;http://radio.userland.com/tips/macintoshPerformance&quot;&gt;remains inept&lt;/a&gt; at talking to a server on the same machine, on Mac Classic OS, which many people still use). But the Flash developers are onto something that seems as exciting as Radio. Intuitively, it seems the two pieces of software should be bonded. This could be one of our escape routes from Microsoft captivity (recall that they have a monopoly in HTML browsers). We have an another escape route in bootstrap mode. Soon you'll be able to browse cool stuff on the Internet without running &lt;i&gt;any&lt;/i&gt; Microsoft software. You'll probably read about it on some of the blogs in the coming days, weeks and months. &quot;;-&gt;&quot;" created="Tue, 26 Mar 2002 15:38:22 GMT"/>
