Jonathan G. S. Koppell

"Thinking of the Internet as a place certainly makes it seem more intriguing. The idea of logging on and entering another space is suggestive in all sorts of ways. It raises issues of consciousness, allows us to think of ourselves as disembodied cybernauts, and sets us apart not just from our primitive ancestors but also from our recent ones. Not incidentally, representing the home computer and AOL membership as a gateway to another dimension helps to sell home computers and AOL memberships."

Perl weenies and webloggers take note

v 0.9 of Jonathan Eisenzopf's XML::RSS.pm is available on CPAN. This version allows you to write syndication files using the proposed RSS 1.0 format. Later that same day, half-cocked from too much wine at dinner and not enough food during the day because he was too distracted debugging, our hero noticed a PHP [4] class for generating old school RSS files straight outta MySQL.

webCDCreator

"can be used to make a single CD-writer available to the users in your network. There is a server that controls the CD-writer using cdrecord. It accepts the requests from several clients around in the network. webCDwriter comes with a client written in java that can run as an applet within a browser. It lets the user put together a CD and transmit the files afterward. The server gives the CD-writer to one user at a time and tells them when to insert the CD." neat!

Les Entartistes : Éthique de la tarte

"Pratiquez une politique d'entartement universel. Entartez les chefs de tout acabit et ceux qui occupent les positions d'autorité, mais d'une façon non-partisane. Silvousplait, pas de tarte séparatiste, fédéraliste, communiste, sexiste, raciste, etc. Nous sommes contre TOUT pouvoir, qu'il soit économique, politique ou médiatique, mais sommes définitivement en faveurs des humains, libres." see also : Le manifeste de 'Internationale pâtissière "Entartons, entartons les pompeux cornichons !"
