My current weblog.
Monday, May 13, 2002Scripting News: Simon Fell's Pocket XML-RPC is "an open source XML-RPC client COM component for the Windows family based on James Clark's excellent Expat XML parser and the HTTP transport from PocketSOAP."
This would have saved me a ton of time in creating Pocket Blog...
Slashdot: Neo-Geo - The Game Console That Won't Die. I used to have a 4-slot Neo-Geo MVS arcade cabinet in my apartment, it was actually cheaper than buying the consumer version. Especially when buying extra cartridges...
NYTimes: BMW's iDrive System on the 745.
Also, via TSL: Menus Behaving Badly.
Wireless News Factor: Apple's Bluetooth Move: Genius or Folly? [via The Bluetooth Weblog]
My prediction: Bluetooth on the desktop will not go anywhere. It just doesn't make sense. Few people will want to replace their USB peripherals with ones that will require batteries or additional power outlets. PDA users are a tiny segment of the overall desktop PC market.
Cellular phones will drive Bluetooth.
Slashdot: This Place is Not a Place of Honor. Designing for usability 10,000 years into the future. This is fascinating stuff.
The Register: Mobile phone radiation products tested
