A few years ago The Guardian revamped its website, and the vast majority of the work I’d written for them vanished from view — linkrot. This was pretty darn depressing, as I’d written quite a lot for them over the years and some of it I hadn’t saved in print, assuming I’d always have the [...]

Great story by John Collins about Limerick’s  Collison brothers, who just became teen millionaires upon the sale of their software company. The 19 (Patrick) and 17 (John) year olds — one of whom (Patrick) took the Young Scientist award in 2005 for his computer language Croma, used for building web apps — sold their company Auctomatic, [...]

This site can be a bit addictive… oooooo, Asteroids and Space Invaders.

Further to last week’s column in which I noted that the EU getting worked up about Microsoft bundling IE is passe, and argued that Apple is pretty heavy handed in this regard too with fewer complaints (advantage of not being a near monopoly)… well, it turns out Mozilla IS complaining. Apple is pushing Safari — [...]

From GMSV: If I see another business plan for a social network, I might blow my brains out.” — Barry Schuler, managing director of Draper Fisher Jurvetson, offers some guidance to budding entrepreneurs seeking capital … but it’s press releases for same, in my case.

My original techno-culture website is about a decade old now and lives on, mothballed on my user space on www.indigo.ie (a blast from the past URL, that). I don’t even know how to log in there anymore! The last updates were done in early 2002. I didn’t have my own domain back then, hence the [...]

Instead, big iron remains a lucrative market for IBM by being revamped and rethought. The mainframe survived its near-death experience and continues [...]

I got a text Friday to contact a friend who had a huge fish tank available… a phone call and a few hours later, I was the new owner of a massive 50 US gallon (190 litre) Juwel Trigon corner aquarium and stand with all the trimmings. Friend would take no payment so I traded her a [...]

Today’s column: EU scoring Micropoints? KARLIN LILLINGTON Fri, Mar 21, 2008 NET RESULTS:I’VE ALWAYS believed that Microsoft has more or less got what it had coming to it in terms of legal challenges. Go through the evidence from the US anti-trust trial for example, and the judge’s findings of fact, and you can see that [...]

This is pretty bizarre. Apparently if you go gaze at an Apple logo, you will think differently — and more creatively — right afterwards. So what would you want to do after staring at Big Blue’s? Take the Presidential Oath? Write country music? According to recent research from Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business and [...]

This is a really good analysis and explanation of cloud computing, if anyone is confused about the initiative and the hype (who wouldn’t be?).

From the NYT’s business pages this weekend. This is truly painful to read: The selling point for Apple’s MacBook Air is the laptop’s lightness and thinness. But be careful, warns Steven Levy, a technology columnist at Newsweek, the Air is so light and so thin that you can easily lose it. Mr. Levy should know, [...]
