THE ECONOMY OF IDEAS (Thomas Jefferson)
|
|
|
|
"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of
|
|
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an
|
|
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps
|
|
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into
|
|
the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself
|
|
of it. Its peculiar character, too, is that no one possesses the less,
|
|
because every other possesses the whole of it. He who receives an idea
|
|
from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he
|
|
who lights his tapir at mine, receives light without darkening mine.
|
|
That ideas should freely spread from one to another over the globe,
|
|
for the moral and mutual instruction of man, and improvement of his
|
|
condition, seems to have been peculiarly and benevolently designed
|
|
by nature, when she made them, like fire, expansible over all space,
|
|
without lessening their density at any point, and like the air in
|
|
which we breathe, move, and have our physical being, incapable of
|
|
confinement or exclusive appropriation. Inventions then cannot, in
|
|
nature, be a subject of property."

to over 300 pages made by concertgoers at Woodstock '94 using a

sounds and dig the trippy pictures from Woodstock '94. Feel the colors.
|
|
BE the music. You get my drift. Just be careful not to blow your mind

"... You know what I hate? The whining. The world is going to shit
|
|
according to him. Every day it's something else. He's watching this
|
|
baseball game, right? The manager shoves an umpire, the ump throws him
|
|
out, the crowd booes, maybe throws a few bottles. To my dad it's the
|
|
end of the fucking world. It's anarchy, man, the crowd is like pissing
|
|
on the American flag because they don't respect the umpire's
|
|
authority. I mean, who cares? It's just a stupid fucking game. Sure
|
|
things are shitty. They could drop the Big One any second and we could
|
|
all fry. You ever been to Pasadena? You can't even breathe the air
|
|
there, with all those refineries, I mean it's *brown*, you know? But
|
|
you got to go right on living. You can't sit around and cry because
|
|
they cut down some trees and pave everything. You don't cry about it,
|
|
man, you skate on it."

CORPORATE NEWS BRIEF
|
|
|
|
==> HOW I.S. ORGANIZATIONS CAN TRIM COSTS. A study reported in PC Week
|
|
(June 20) identifies ways that six organizations trimmed their
|
|
total information systems costs by 20% to 80%. Key factors
|
|
included: reducing end-user support staff by using and/or
|
|
customizing shrink-wrapped software; outsourcing maintenance of
|
|
old applications, freeing in-house staff to concentrate on new
|
|
technologies; and securing commitment from top-down line-
|
|
management.

<<<ACCESS>> CPU: WORKING IN THE COMPUTER INDUSTRY
|
|
|
|
If you work in the computer industry, you may be interested in
|
|
subscribing to CPU, an electronic publication dedicated to sharing
|
|
information among workers in the computer industry. CPU is a project
|
|
of the "Working in the Computer Industry" working group of Computer
|
|
Professionals for Social Responsibility (CPSR). Every issue contains
|
|
useful information about the computer industry: first hand accounts of
|
|
life in the trenches, industry trends, a calendar of conventions, word
|
|
of the latest layoffs, and pointers to useful resources for computer
|
|
professionals.
|
|
|

THE ONLINE WORLD
|
|
|
|
==> MICROSOFT'S MARVEL. Look for Microsoft to announce their online
|
|
service, codenamed Marvel, sometime in October. When Chicago
|
|
(the codename for Windows 4) ships sometime in 1995, it will
|
|
have out-of-the-box PPP (Point to Point Protocol) for accesing
|
|
the Internet, as well as an improved TCP/IP stack for easier
|
|
configuration of IP (Internet Protocol) addresses. The Marvel
|
|
software will no doubt also come bundled with the system. At
|
|
first, Marvel will allow access to a WWW server with information
|
|
about MS products and tech support, and upgrades and bug fixes
|
|
(this last could come in handy with Microsoft's habit of shipping
|
|
buggy version 1.0's). An automatic subscribe feature in Chicago
|
|
will provide push-button acccess to commercial online services.
|
|
Ultimately, MS wants to offer their own online service, and is
|
|
said to be negotiating with content providers. You can be sure
|
|
the other major services are a little nervous about the 800 pound
|
|
gorilla of the PC world honing in on their territory. Say what you
|
|
will about MS, eventually they get it right and have turned out
|
|
some fine products. (SOURCE: INFOWORLD 8/22/94, p. 5)
|
|
|
|
==> AIRMOSAIC. Spry Inc. will begin shipping AirMosaic, the first of
|
|
several announced commercial implementations of the popular
|
|
Mosaic WWW browser. Their version, for Window's users, will offer
|
|
an improved user interface and indexing tools. Additionally, the
|
|
program can be put into a Kiosk mode for the public viewing of
|
|
information. Future versions will offer tools for the construction
|
|
of multimedia documents. (SOURCE: INFOWORLD 8/22/94, p. 6)

|
==> ANET - THE INTERNATIONAL ACCOUNTING NETWORK. The "ANet" seeks to
|
|
to provide a networked, electronic forum for the exchange of
|
|
information and the discussion of issues in the broad accounting
|
|
and auditing discipline and a repository for a range of
|
|
information in the discipline. It includes a variety of electronic
|
|
mail discussion groups and an online database of information. A

THE ELECTRONIC CAMPFIRE (Pamela McCorduck)
|
|
|
|
[Laurie] Anderson has said that technology today is the campfire
|
|
around which we tell our stories. She reconsiders this idea. "Of
|
|
course, there's the attraction to light and to this kind of power,
|
|
which is both warm and destructive. We're especially drawn to the
|
|
power. Many of the images of technology are about making us more
|
|
powerful, extending what we can do. Unfortunately, 95 percent of this
|
|
is hype, because I think we're powerful without it." She thinks the
|
|
information superhighway is being oversold, and brings out a book
|
|
she's reading: Digital Woes (Why We Should Not Depend on Software) by
|
|
Lauren Ruth Weiner. She ticks off the examples that worry her:
|
|
unmanned supertankers to carry oil to Japan, software bugs that
|
|
overdose radiation therapy and kill cancer patients, even the car that
|
|
will parallel park itself, thanks to sensors, and wedge you into the
|
|
available space with an inch or two to spare. "But suppose you go to
|
|
the movies," Anderson continues, "come back, find yourself between
|
|
these two supercars, and you don't have the software -- you're in big
|
|
trouble. The information highway is being used mostly for tracking
|
|
people down in terms of debt and credit, not for tapping into the
|
|
Library of Congress, not really." (SOURCE: "America's Multi-
|
|
Mediatrix", WIRED 2.03, March 1994, p. 136)

KULTCHER KORNER
|
|
|
|
==> EX-MONKS CLAIM ROYALTIES FOR CD CHANT. Two ex-Benedictine monks in
|
|
Spain claim they are entitled to $5 million in royalties because
|
|
10 years ago they scored Chant, "The Best of Gregorian Chants"
|
|
that is top of the music charts (these crazy kids!). An attorney
|
|
for the distributor says, "This is part of a larger worldwide
|
|
frontal attack on the public domain. My personal opinion also is
|
|
that claiming to arrange this 1,000-year old chanted music is not
|
|
realistic."

me this one is a cruel joke. This came via the Fringeware mailing

list. IRC by the way, stands for Internet Relay Chat -- it kind of

From: tuppnet@netcom.com (Virginia R Bedow)
|
|
|
|
Welcome to TuppNet!
|
|
|
|
TuppNet is an innovative new way to purchase Tupperware through
|
|
the Internet. There are three easy ways to purchase Tupperware
|
|
through TuppNet:
|
|
|
|
1. Email.
|
|
2. Public IRC parties. Every Wednesday at 6PM PDT TuppNet will
|
|
hold a public Tupperware party on UnderNet IRC. We will answer any
|
|
questions you may have. We will also be showing the latest
|
|
Tupperware products. You can follow along in the catalog (GIF and
|
|
text versions).
|
|
3. Private IRC parties. These are just like public IRC parties,
|
|
except you can host them and earn hostess gifts just like you
|
|
would at a regular Tupperware party. You set up a time and invite
|
|
your internet friends to join you. For more info email:
|

|
|
==> PIZZANET. In a totally related story, the Santa Cruz Operation,
|
|
Inc. (SCO) and Pizza Hut, Inc. recently launched "PizzaNet," a
|
|
pilot program that enables computer users, for the first time in
|
|
history (fanfare please) to electronically order pizza delivery
|
|
from their local Pizza Hut restaurant via the worldwide Internet.
|
|
PizzaNet is a pilot program and will only be up and running in the
|
|
Santa Cruz area, but the company will be watching the results
|
|
carefully to determine the feasibility of expanding the program to
|
|
other cities in the U.S. and around the world. The custom PizzaNet
|
|
application software was developed by SCO's Professional Services
|
|
organization, and incorporates advanced NCSA Mosaic software. All
|
|
money changes hand at the point of delivery, so you will still
|
|
have to tip the delivery person. Santa Cruz Internet users can
|
|
access PizzaNet by entering pointing their Web brwsers to
|

ON THE NEWSSTAND
|
|
|
|
==> PC COMPUTING. (September 1994) Special Issue: Complete Guide to
|
|
the I-Way. Subtitled "A Practical User's Guide", there is a lot of
|
|
useful info here, presented in an easy-to-read format. Aside from
|
|
the obligatory overview of the Internet, favorite Internet books
|
|
and online destinations, there are reviews of all the major one
|
|
size fits all Internet connectivity packages (Internet Chameleon,
|
|
Spry's Air Series, Pipeline -- as well as free and shareware
|
|
equivalents) and a comparison of ease of use in performing various
|
|
tasks (emailing, downloading files, accessing the Internet and
|
|
finding information) on the big three online services (America
|
|
Online, Compuserve and Prodigy). Also some business BBS info. Lots
|
|
of screen shots and various sidebars explaining basic terms and
|
|
detailing how various technologies work. Nicely done.
|
|
*NEWS FLASH!* The Net-Happenings list reports that newsstand
|
|
copies of PC Computing will have a 24.75" x 37.25" fold-out
|
|
ROAD MAP TO THE INTERNET! (Who said the information highway cliche
|
|
was dead? Not me.) Mike Pagel reports that the map is perfect for
|
|
those who are in the "toddler stages" of internet exploration. I
|
|
haven't seen it (yet) but the map highlights business resources,
|
|
as well a few recreational and just plain useful sites. Bill Drew,
|
|
reference Librarian at SUNY College of Agriculture and Technology
|
|
reports that subscribers to PC Computing, who do not receive the
|
|
map in their copies, may obtain one by calling 800/365-2770 and
|
|
verifying their subscription info.
|
|
|
|
==> INTERNET WORLD. (September 1994) I have to admit -- when Internet
|
|
World first came out I was not all that impressed with it. Geared
|
|
a little too much for beginners, not enough meat in the thing. But
|
|
little by little, it began to improve. This latest issue is quite
|
|
good -- and I'm not just saying this because IW is published by
|
|
MecklerMedia, parent corporation of MecklerWeb, where the WWW-
|
|
flavored version of Bits and Bytes Online Edition will debut (see
|
|
next issue for details). There are regular columns covering legal
|
|
issues, tips for beginner's, technical stuff and more. This issue
|
|
features articles on Encyclopedia Brittanica's foray onto the
|
|
Internet; NASA online; an interview with longtime certified net-
|
|
guru Vinton Cerf; sports on the Internet; and of course business
|
|
oportunities on the net. They've spiffed up the graphics too, and
|
|
kids, it looks mahvelous. Meckler rules! Now send me some review
|
|
copies! $4.95

Probably not, not as long as they keep coming out with such
|
|
interesting material. This issues cover boy is Penn Gillette (the
|
|
talking half of Penn and Teller), but don't let that scare you.
|
|
In addition to the Teller interview (he's quite the computer
|
|
nerd), there are articles on Universal Sevice, insect-sized
|
|
robots, high-tech war games, why newspapers (online or otherwise)
|
|
suck, as well a plethora of news and reviews. At newsstands and

libraries everywhere! $4.95
