Reaity intrusions
| | Gotta get ready for all kinds of shit this weekend, plus Linux World next week. No time to post. Meanwhile, read this from Lou Josephs and this from the Head Lemur. |
Guru of glee
| | My friend Bernie makes fun of things for a living. Really. If you have a fun problem, Bernie is your man. Also if you don't. The System still works. Fun is like that. So is Bernie. |
| | Yesterday I decided Bernie was a felicitator. Calling himself that would narrow his market to the 0.X% of us who know the meaning of felicity and who also get the word play. But therein lies a problem, no? And perhaps therefore also a market. |
| | Speaking of which, Bernie does retreats. They're the therapy you don't think you need, and won't be embarrased to talk about later. |
Borgosystem
| | I'm flattered by how well this blog does on both the Most Linked and Most Prolific Linkers lists: Right behind Glenn Reynolds on both. |
| | Also interesting to see a nice mix of techbloggers and warbloggers, even though some (most?) of us don't like either label a whole lot. |
| | What's really cool is that the whole thing serves as a kind of collective blogroll: a bloggeist that isn't limited to any one blogger's faves (or in my case, three years of legacy I don't have the heart or the time to thin out). |
| | There are odd omissions, like Moxie, one of my faves. |
| | Usurpers amongst the Senones tried to kill their king Cavarinus (an appointee of mine). He heard of the scheme and fled, but was discovered at the border. They dethroned and banished him, although they spared his life. I've asked for their entire tribal council to pay me a visit and discuss their recent actions. |
| | So there's some major good fishin' down there below the usual pickin's. |
| | Which is why I just made the whole durn ecosystem the top link in my blogroll. |
Fuck happens
| | Robin Wiliamson's Incredible String Band used to have a song, I think it was called Big Ted. The lyrics went, "Big Ted's dead and gone. Gone like snow on the water. Good bye-eeee..." |
| | Well, that's what happened with a whole lotta yesterday's blog. Or the last few posts, anyway. Not sure why. I must've done something dumb before closing my Radio Userland outline, moving stuff on and off another outline I sometimes use for drafts. |
| | Anyway, if you think I did something bad, or took my words back, or censored myself or something like that, don't think again. Just forgive. Hey, I fucked up. |

lou josephs - FCC meeting thursday

You get HDTV even if you don't want it. But you also get:
Digital Radio Broadcast Flag 'Conceivable'
So said FCC Media Bureau Chief Ken Ferree after the commission yesterday launched a proceeding that proposes a digital copy protection mechanism to protect unauthorized reproduction of DTV transmissions. Ferree says if a signal can be embedded in a TV signal, he doesn't see why the same thing couldn't be done with a radio signal. Indeed, listed among the questions the FCC is opening up for comment is whether digital broadcast protection will have an effect on the development of new consumer technologies, a label under which in-band, on-channel digital radio could fall.
