In the Making Light thread on the SFWA's debacle where Andrew Burt used a bot searching for 'Asimov' to issue DMCA takedown notices willy-nilly, sideswiping Cory, Teresa Nielsen-Hayden gave the clearest, most compact advice on handling net PR disasters ever: Get out there and say something, fast.Acknowledge that there have been screwups. Avoid passive constructions. Explain what you're doing to help...

As I was up anyway, working on some code, I stayed up to watch the lunar eclipse and took some photos.Update: A lovely composite photo taken by Matt Onheib...

Mike Arrington has been stirring it about YouTube's new in-frame ads but this idea is something that dates back years, way back to the late 80s. In 1989 my colleagues Max Whitby, Nikki Barton and Chris Prior made a documentary with Douglas Adams called "Hyperland" looking at hypertext and the interlinked video future. Here's a snip where they explain 'micons': What they went through back then...

The term bacn for email you receive that isn’t spam… And isn’t personal mail. It’s the middle class of email. It’s notifications of a new post to your Facebook wall or a new follower on Twitter. It’s the Google alert for your name and the newsletter from your favorite company. is a handy word for a new phenomenon, but it looks like it should be an acronym.

The worm drives helically through the wood And does not know the dust left in the bore Once made the table integral and good; And suddenly the crystal hits the floor. Electrons find their paths in subtle ways, A massless eddy in a trail of smoke; The names of lovers, light of other days — Perhaps you will not miss them. That’s the joke. The universe winds down. That’s how it’s...

Before I go into details, let me say that you should go and see Stardust tomorrow. Take friends and loved ones; you'll thank me for it later. We watched Edward Scissorhands in San Jose's St James Park on Friday night, which has a magic realism of it's own, what with the light rail passing either side of the park, the planes and nightclub searchlights in the sky, and the audience mixing the homeless...

The other day I was joking about some abstruse aspect of XML and I said "I happen to have Tim Bray right here", in reference, of course, to Woody Allen's devastating cinema queue put-down in Annie Hall. Now I was only half joking - Tim Bray was on IRC with me working through the Atom Publishing Protocol interop at the time - but the deeper point is that through the web we do have access to people...

Andrew and Christopher have been making videos since they were 5, but this summer Andrew got the chance to go to Camp Cinequest, a summer camp for young filmmakers at San Jose University, organised by the Cinequest Film Festival. He told the local paper all about it (PDF version). Now there's a public showing under the Cinema St James festival - come along!Bee Aware and Edward Scissorhands at Cinema...

Those of you who read my blog directly, rather than via a feed-reader, will notice that it is looking styled again, for the first time since CSS Naked Day in April. I made an initial conversion to hAtom by hand in the meantime, but a few weeks back Michał Cierniak and I checked in a change to the underlying Blogger templates to make hAtom the default, which the Blogger team graciously accepted. This...

The UK Professional Association of Teachers has called for YouTube to be banned because it has been used to show people being bullied. Meanwhile, Oxford police are pursuing a man who pinched a news reporters' bum on air:I trust the PAT will call for Channel 4 to be banned too.Perhaps the net can fulfill Bentham's dream of the panopticon, where prisoners are always watched. In the Philippines they...
