10 Signs of Intelligent Life at YouTube (Smart... →
It’s been a constant lament that YouTube offers its users scant little intellectual content. And that content is itself hard to find. Just visit YouTube’s so-called Education Section, and you’ll be hard-pressed to find anything actually educational. But the good news is that we’re seeing some recent signs of intelligent life at YouTube. The video service hosts an increasing number of...
Yeah, I'm paying attention... what? →
Via Mediapost, new research from market research firm BIGresearch: Regular activities engaged in by viewers during TV commercials: 41.2% channel-surf 33.5% talk with others in the room or by phone 30.2% mentally tune out [I’ve met them] 5.5% regularly fully attend to commercials [I haven’t met them] Rank ordering of activities engaged in by people while “using media”, in...
We need a different copyright for individuals →
In my new Guardian column, “Copyright law should distinguish between commercial and cultural uses,” I argue for a new kind of copyright law, one that mirrors the “folk copyright” that individuals have lived by for decades — the alternative is to try to get kids and fans to participate in the “real” copyright, a system of industrial regulation so complex...

Brilliantly stylish wooden toys from Take-G →
How gorgeous are these elegant wooden toys from Japanese toymaker Takeji Nakagawa, aka Take-G? The level of craftsmanship and design blow me away. There’s a awkwardly-translated interview with Nakagawa at Hitspaper that’s worth visiting if only for the high-res images of his work.

Library of Congress on Flickr →
What do you do with a million public domain images that need context and description?
The Library of Congress is putting them on Flickr.
“The key goals of this pilot project are to firstly give you a taste of the hidden treasures in the huge Library of Congress collection, and secondly to show how your input of a tag or two can make the collection even richer.

Hopefully, this pilot...

Filed under: Internet, News
A North Dakota judge issued a ruling in Sierra Corporate Design v. Ritz that has some pretty stunning implications about the use of the “host -l” command when accessing DNS records. In the judgment (which was prepared by the plaintiff’s counsel and sent to the judge), the use of the “host -l” command is tantamount to computer hijacking and...

Julian Dibbell’s released the text of his ground-breaking “My Tiny Life” as a free download through Lulu.com.
Part memoir and part ethnography, My Tiny Life is about the social life of the online, text-based virtual world LambdaMOO and my own brief encounter with it in the early ’90s. Andrew Leonard, in Salon, called it “the best book yet on the meaning of online life.”

CinematicTitanic is Joel Hodgson’s latest project, and it kicks ass. Hodgson is the creator of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 — one of the greatest TV shows in history, in which Hodgson and friends screened insanely bad old movies while making hundreds and hundreds of snarky, convulsively funny jokes (someone once clocked it at 200 jokes an hour).

Hot Swedes Use Body Heat to Heat Train Station →
Move over sun and wind power… the next frontier in renewable energy is people power! And no, we don’t mean them being used as in soylent green, but rather, to use the energy generated from the movement of large numbers of pedestrians through an occupied space. If you think about it, it makes perfect sense: people power is cheap and plentiful. People are an infinitely renewable resource in a...

Hang your books from the rafters →
Love this storage idea for sticking your books up in the rafters. I get rid of books as fast as I can, but I overflow my shelves all the time and end up colonizing the floor with tottering heaps. Better to colonize the ceiling! Link (Thanks, Alice!)
