And after a year of existance, how much universal acceptance does GroupDAV have? Have they had their first faction fights and version number wars like RSS? If not, I don't know if I can take them seriously.
Are you sure that they haven't joined in? Since they are major players in WebDAV (even if their implementation can be squirrelly), I'd be surprised if they didn't have someone involved in a big way. (I tried to find a membership list to check, but first must have coffeeee...)
Isn't there RSS stuff that already does this? Like RSSCalendar for the last while or so? (Mind you, I don't see any links to technical information or protocols, so if they were hoping to keep people locked into their own little "capture eyeballs" business model.. oh well.)
Seconded. (Shock, Sheep and Stand are Brunner's three must-reads.) And add True Names by Vernor Vinge as another "What were they thinking by leaving this off?!?!" book.
Wendel apparently has other sites fatal1ty100.comfatal1tyshootout.comfatal1tyshootouts.com that have recently had content added in the last week or two. The curious thing is that they're parked in a 209.164.40.0-31 IP range that's full to the brim with 90+ Cthurch of Scientology web sites.
"Oh oh, I've got it! We'll do it where the Village is like the Matrix where everything is computer CGI, only we'll have a huge difference because, get this, rather than everyone waiting for The One, they're waiting for Number Six. Okay?"
"Umm, in the end of the series it turned out that he sort of was Number One. It's confusing."
"Damn. Run it past the lawyers. Now, who can we get to play Keanu Reeves?"
"..just about any block of wood.."
"You're fired."
If you've ever had a backrub with a piece of fibre-glass insulation, it's likely that sort of irritating. Now imagine a couple days in a suit when you can't reach the spot.
If they'd gone Open Source from the start with their rootkit, the community could have contributed bug fixes and improvements. Even their competitors could have gotten involved, resulting in a truely powerful bug-free rootkit for use by everyone.
Well of course it wasn't decentralized. I was just wondering about the story wording: "I2hub, the only p2p client that catered to internet2 users has shutdown today". Obviously it wasn't the client that was shutdown but the I2hub server.
It sounds like they shutdown a server which made the clients work, or have the redefinition elves been busy? (Granted that with p2p, exactly who's a server or a client is vague. Director/peon architecture?)

RMFP. No, I meant that RSSCalendar didn't seem to say which standards they were using.
I thought their motto was "Beautiful plumage!"

Umm, nope. On the other hand, I think they're still blocked either in hosts or at the router. Likewise, Doubleclick doesn't exist on my Internet.

Yeesh, not in a million years. It was only somewhat readable at the time, and otherwise I've completely forgotten it. (And I own a copy somewhere.)
Sorry, 65.59.27.0-31 range. (The other one was a IP that a site shifted from.)

Yes, but we know his opinion about games already, don't we?

In any case, the noise conveys the most important part of the conversation anyway: "Hi, I'm on the train..."

Video games will be so old by then. They probably be blowing bubbles. (Which will have gotten a bit more complex by then.)
Bah, just tell the little crater-rats that you had to do it without a suit!
Meanwhile, if they can manage to grow corn on the Moon, there shouldn't a problem with Moonbase Movie Night.
Clippy sez...
Wouldn't Google and Wayback Machine trying to assimilate each other have done that already?
I thinking more of a firing squad at dawn.
Too bad. I've certainly wanted to be able to execute a lot of the music that's published today.
