  1. this is sad. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1, Insightful · on Google to Offer Free Wi-Fi?

    so, a delusional blogger made an entry about a nonexistant relation about a slide, and his own fantasies and this shit is published, for god sake, looking the bio confirms that he is a moron.

  4. Easy way to get weblogs.com content back: Google by eggboard · · Score: 4, Informative · on Hosting Service Closes 3000 Blogs Without Notice

    If you don't want to interact with the fellow who shut the blogs down (I've promised to never say his name in print again for the same reason the Indo-European root of "bear" is actually "brown"), I've written a short and sweet way to extract all of your blog posts in somewhat ugly but complete form using Google.

    Essentially, enter a Google query in the form

    site:YOURDOMAIN.weblogs.com UNIQUE_WORD

    Unique word should be something that appears on every page. Now get one of those slurping programs that downloads Web pages. Point it to the Google URL and set it to one level deep. It'll retrieve all the pages via Google's Cached link. repeat for each page of Google results. Now you have your content, and if you've clever, you can write a shell script to extract the unique text and eventually recreate your blog without any "bear" involved.

  5. Re:AOL is completely REASONABLE. by IngramJames · · Score: 1 · on Dealing with False AOL Spam Reports?

    I was referring to the link you posted to here (first link from your Google link). Just pointing out a minor correction to the name of the well-known September that AOL unleashed its hoardes. This may be petty, but then again, I am fairly anal :-)

    September is well known for this kind of problem - precisely because that's when the clueless freshmen all arrive - albeit nowadays with their own PCs, open ports and instaiable desire to open attachments, rather than the old problem of writing "Me Too" and quoting 500+ lines of previous news article...

  6. Real CEO is a baseball team owner, too by eggboard · · Score: 4, Interesting · on Real Sues Baseball Over Windows Media

    As I pointed out in a blog entry today, Real's chairman and CEO (and founder) is also a minority owner of The Seattle Mariners. Thus, by Real suing MLB, Glaser is -- in part -- suing himself. Why are no reporters covering this aspect?

  7. OSXCON panel on DRM and the Digital Hub by mouthbeef · · Score: 2 · on Apple Shuns DRM Efforts So Far

    Dan Gillmor, Victor Nemachek (from El Gato, makers of the OSX PVR eyeTV), JD Lasica (a journo working on a book on fair use), Tim "O'Reilly" O'Reilly and I (from EFF) did a panel on fair use, DRM, and the digital hub at O'Reilly's OS X con in Santa Clara yesterday. Glenn "802.11b Networking News" Fleishman blogged a transcript of the panel here,with lots more depth on the subject.
