Image management tool?
I’m looking for a multi-user image management system. The goal is to be able to centrally store images in a database, where users could then query the system on a variety of criteria (show me images of this person with that person, show me images in this state, etc.). A web-based solution would be ideal, […]
Topical, polemical, and short
From a Pulitzer-prize winning historian:
“The weblog is a one-man show. One has complete freedom of expression, including, if one chooses, the freedom to be scurrilous, abusive, and seditious; or, on the other hand, to be more detailed, serious and ‘high-brow’ than is ever possible in a newspaper or in most kinds of periodicals. At the […]

And now for something completely useless…
It turns out that someone bought all of the remaining shares in this site over at Blogshares. What exactly that means is beyond me. (Remember – I went to law school because there was no math.) More worrisome is that this “someone” is actually called – no, I’m not making this up – Biff Gnarly. […]

NYT: In Searching the Web, Google Finds Riches
Yet more fawning praise for everyone’s favorite Internet company. A “googol,” from whence the search engine derives its name, is a really big number — specifically a 1 followed by 100 zeros. Well, Google isn’t worth quite that much yet, but it’s getting there:
Google, a private company, does […]

Can the tail wag the dog..? [Curiouser and curiouser!]

Dean at CDF: A Thing of Beauty
Calling Howard Dean “the indie rock star” of the Democratic race, Garance Franke-Ruta writes in The American Prospect that Howard Dean “makes you feel like you’ve been waiting your whole life for someone to say what he says.”
The article analyzes each candidate’s performance:
Kerry: “surprisingly unimpressive, almost listless”
Sharpton: “a boon to the race, [despite] his […]
T-Mobile Embraces Disruptive Technology
Good-Bye 3G – Hello Wi-Fi Frappuccino. One of the ( perhaps too often repeated) themes around here is always about how businesses should keep an eye out for disruptive technologies and be ready to embrace them before they take over a legacy business.
