Well, Zope is object oriented, has excellent seperation of presentation and business layer possibilities and once you know how it works, is very easy to get stuff done. Oh, and it is free.
Weren't software agents going to do this a few years ago? Learning your habbits from browser and going out there, negotiating deals with other agents. History does repeat itself, especially the things that didn't happen.
Zope (http:/www.zope.org) is object oriented webserver written in Python. It has a lot of content management features right out of the box and for those who want more, there are quite a lot of plug ins (products) that extend this functionality. It is open source, available for all major operating systems and completely configurable from the browser. Recommended for most content management jobs.
I mean, if rocks from Mars made it to the earth, then for sure some rocks made the trip the other way. Bacteria would probably survive something like that. They wouldn't necesarily grow, but still there would be life.
PalmOs has almost no following outside the pda market. The pda market is rather small compared to the overall embedded market. PalmOs based smart phones have failed to take off.
Epoc seems to be powering quite a lot more phones these days then anything else. With the phone market so much bigger in terms of numbers then the pc market, let alone the handheld market, is epoc not poised to beat Windows CE?

While spam might come from Chinese or Korean subdomains, it usually is about American products to the degree that the stuff offered is completely useless for someone from the Netherlands. They might at least filter on the target email address you'd think.
I call vaporware. Breakthroughs do occur, but if you compare this against the IBM microdrive this thing is a lot smaller in size, has five times the capacity and costs US$ 15 instead of US$ 200. Would be very cool, but I don't think so.
Actually it does. The TGV has a normal speed of around 300 Km/hour, while the transrapid in this case seems to have a production speed of 430 (according to the article). Of course the TGV has (so far) a higher speed record, but that is quite something else as cruise speed.
It reads not former Soviet republics, but only mentions Belarus and Russia (allthough no doubt some of the others do badly too)

This is not true. I thought most people would know that coke comes from cocaine leaves, while opium is derived from poppies.

One thing I have been wondering for a while, why are there no 17" 1600x1200 lcd monitors? There are laptops that support that resolution with smaller screens, but no monitors, as far as I know.
Not all microbiolists are old, but if there^H^Hy're famous, they're probably somewhat older, say average around 50. 2% death rate would give them a life expectancy of 85, which sounds about right.
Say, there are about 100 different communities like microbiology, linux adepts or literary critics, with each 100 experts. The chance of 1 expert dying in half a year is may be 2% (there usually somewhat aged). 10 experts dying in half a year from a community of 100 is then about 1 in 1000 (ie 0.02^10/(0.98^90) times a number of possible distributions), so something like this should happen about every 5 year within one of the hundred communities.
What I would want is a smaller (ie cheaper) lcd monitor at 1600x1200. Lots of laptops seem to have 15.4" screens at 1600x1200 or even higher nowadays, but monitors at 15" always seem to be 1024x768 and at 17" only at 1280x1024. Why aren't there any small, hi-res monitors in LCD land?
Here's the great irony: There's more censorship -- all kinds, everywhere, involving more media and culture -- than ever before
This is of course totally untrue. There might be a slight fallback, but think back a mere twelfe years and there was no freedom of press in the Soviet Block. Think back three hundred years and freedom of press was just a vague ideal of the enlightment movement.
User would go to download a game demo or something, receive pieces from several different places, and knit them together?
The file sharing networks based on fasttrack technology do that. You download a movie or game from different users at the same time. Kazaa stitches it back together.
And aren't the newest Windows Media codecs based on a draft of the MPEG-4 standard?
Sure they are. Only Microsoft will "improve" on them, so that Mediaplayer will play standard MPEG-4, but will only work better with Microsoft (propriety) Improved MPEG-4, thus killing the standard.
The first article goes into why it seems that Open Source is incompatible with usual capitalism, but is not. People join Open Source projects not because they want to give something back or because they have a wealth surplus, but because they expect to economically gain from it.
The second article thinks that Open Source heralds the second coming of Socialism and will ultimately defeat Capitalism and the reason for production. (Each accordin to it's needs).
