The same could be said of the LCMS industry:
"Content management software hasn't worked because it
was badly designed and massively over-hyped. Software
companies lied about their products, charging criminal
prices for crap software. It hasn't worked because
organizations didn't understand content. They wanted a
quick fix. They issued specifications that bore little
relation to what they actually needed." By Gerry
McGovern, New Thinking, March 3, 2003

Tales of the Disappearing Computer no és un conte de ciència ficció, sinó una conferència organitzada per The Disappearing Computer, iniciativa finançada per la Unió Europea que es planteja d'esbrinar «com les tecnologies de la informació es poden difondre dins dels objectes i escenaris quotidians, i com això ens pot conduir a noves maneres de recolzar i millorar la vida de la gent que vagen més enllà del que és possible fer avui amb els ordinadors». També ho anomenen així: «interactive ubiquitous computing systems». Potser sí que és ciència ficció. Fa por i tot!
La conferència ha de servir per debatre sobre aquests assumptes. Tindrà lloc a Santorini, Grècia, els dies 1 a 4 de juny de 2003.

You've probably heard that in the last two weeks Overture has bought both Alta Vista and FAST's AllTheWeb. Overture leads the search category that it calls "pay-for-performance", but which should be called "pay-for-rank", "money-before-relevance", or "lucrative distortion". Until now, Alta Vista and AllTheWeb were two of the best uncorrupted search engines, but definitely under the shadow of Google. In today's Information Today, Barbara Quint makes clear what many of us feared, and what earlier reports couldn't confirm, namely, that Overture will not only merge Alta Vista and AllTheWeb but convert them to the pay-for-rank model. This will make them as good as useless for research, and reduce the competition among objective search engines. Fortunately, Google is financially secure and publicly committed to resist the pay-for-rank model. Of course, serious scholarly search tends to use specialized search engines, such as those customized for OAI-compliant archives. But Google and its former competitors were the best hope for the billions of pages not within the scope of the specialized search engines. More coverage. [FOS News]

Vilaweb ens conta l'última de l'SGAE:
L'SGAE vol cobrar per l''Avertefué'
Segons que informa avui el diari Vieiros, la Societat General d'Autors i Editors (SGAE) s'ha interessat per la famossísim animació en flash ‘Avertefué', de les ‘Fuetchup'. L'animació, un dels arxius que més ha circulat darrerament a la xarxa, és una paròdia de la gestió de la catàstrofe del Prestige que fa servir un fons musical basat en el tema ‘Aserejé' del grup ‘Las Ketchup'. L'SGAE ha comunicat a la web marcianos.net que han de pagar 390 euros al mes o retirar l'animanció. Marcianos.net diu que no pensa retirar-la, que es tracta d'un cas de dret a la paròdia i que l'SGAE fa ‘censura política de la xarxa'. Han penjat a la web l'intercanvi de correus amb l'SGAE.
L'SGAE fa una campanya de protecció dels drets de la propietat intel·lectual força polèmica. Dins d'aquesta ‘lluita contra el piratatge i persecució del delicte' ha instituït el ‘dia sense música. Dins els primers Big Brother Awards Spain va rebre el premi d'elecció popular, que van votar els internautes.

The easiest way to interact with jogger is to first add it to your roster -- since it's a server-side component, you can subscribe to any address @jogger.jabber.linux.it. Personally I subscribed to jogger@jogger.jabber.linux.it, which might actually be its official address in a few days. Then you can just send messages to that address and they'll magically show up at http://jabber.linux.it/jogger/, as well as at your personal page of the form http://jabber.linux.it/jogger/user.php?jid=username@host (e.g., Md's jog is at http://jabber.linux.it/jogger/user.php?jid=md@jabber.linux.it). So give it a whirl!

Another journal declares independence from Elsevier....Until this month, the European Economic Review was the official journal of the European Economic Association (EEA). Elsevier has published the journal since 1969, before the EEA adopted it. But over the years, the EEA grew increasingly unhappy with Elsevier's subscription price (now $950/year for libraries) and its requirement that the publisher, not the association, hire the journal's editors. So in 2001 the EEA started the process of declaring independence. This month MIT Press will launch the Journal of the European Economic Association. The new journal will have a much lower price ($325/year for libraries) and be owned by the EEA. For more details, see the new journal's page on its own history, the EEA's press release, or David Glenn's story in the March 21 issue of the Chronicle of Higher Education (accessible only to CHE subscribers). For precedents, see my list of journal declarations of independence. [FOS News]

The problem isn't exactly like last November's defunding of PubScience, which was the result of a deliberate, anti-FOS lobbying campaign by a trade association of commercial electronic publishers. But the effect might be the the defunding of another government-supported open-access resource, this time a much more significant one. ERIC is older, larger, and much better entrenched in its niche than PubScience was. It was launched in 1966, tying with Medline as the oldest known open-access initiative. ERIC is "the largest education database in the world --containing more than 1 million records of journal articles, research reports, curriculum and teaching guides, conference papers, and books."
