"BLOGMASTER"(Tiny) where are you going? We need you. Hope you're not gone long. Haven't received newsletter yet - hoping to get it tomorrow or Saturday. Hopeful Angel - yes, last couple days worth of comments are missing- wonder why? ›››

Probably just as well, those posts were not something I want to remember. I received my newsletter today, you will recieve yours soon. I have to take a leave of absence for awhile, time to go silent. We are in good hands and feel confident that this is a great opportunity. I want to personally aplogize to B, somehow my comments got blown out of proportion and did not convey the message I was trying to make. I am fully aware that without Bob there would be no Euclid. So thank-you in advanc ›››

Does anybody know what happened to the posts from Tiny, BOS and Jimmy T? Is it just me or have we lost some posts on the blog? ›››

Does anybody really have an idea of when the bank will be selected and how long after the sale will it take for Euclid to go big as in the media or magaazines ›››

And if you are writing a lesson, or a chapter in a textbook, or similar, the recipe is :- 1) Tell them what you're going to tell them. 2) Tell them. 3) Tell them what you told them. 4) Test them on what you (just) told them. ›››

Looks like we have a young frat man on our blog who likes to use sophomoric names and expressions that are less than funny! Oliver, why don't you go back to the frat house and dunk your head in a vat of beer! ›››

What do you mean content providers will HAVE to pay for this caching. They will only pay if they want it and it will only have any effect on the world if lots of providers use it. You sound like those people back in the mid-nineties saying that no one should build any more towers because satellite based services were going to knock out all terestrial wireless. The issue of net neutrality is not whether or not you allow tiered service levels but whether pricing is based on raw bits or it is ba ›››

That's the only thing about talking to B -- you get a new date each time you talk to him -- and always a good excuse for the delay! Just wonder if the dates will ever be realistic. ›››

16. Don on No Such Thing as Free WiFi
Where and when did EarthLink commit to city-wide free WiFi access? What EarthLink /did/ commit to is paying for network build-outs on its own dime, at no cost to the city or taxpayers. In certain municipalities, free access will be available in zones designated by the city and EarthLink. When is the last time your telco or cableco offered free access to you? ›››

Yasou! (Hello to you) from Athens (Greece, not Georgia!)The laptop works here! My daughter, grandchildren and I are having a ball and will move to Mykonos on Monday, then island hop each week until April 2. My favorite question here is? Poso kani? (How much does it cost?) If Euclid comes through then maybe I can do this on a permanent basis!!! Catch up with y'all in a week or so!)Adio! ›››

Kalispera (good evening) to you from Athens (Greece, not Georgia!) The laptop works so I can keep up with what's going on in the USA! Will go to Mykonos on Monday for a week and then island-hop each week until we've seen all the Greek islands. My daughter and grandchildren are with me and I'm loving every minute of it. Now if good ol' Euclid will just come through for me, I can do this on a permanent basis! Right now, my favorite Greek question is: "Poso kani?" (How much does it cost?!!!! ›››

Hi Sunny. Thanks for even thinking of me! Yes, I guess the news on the blog is good. I'm just going to assume that BOS and JT know what they're talking about and try to relax. I'm getting ready to go to Greece for a month, so I'm hoping I'll have good news when I return. I'm also hoping my laptop works abroad. If not, I guess I"ll be visiting a lot of Internet Cafes to check the blog. My flight leaves at 2:45 p.m. so gotta go make sure I have everything packed! Adio!!!! ›››

27. Tom Mariner on Dana's Quick Writing Course
I am both a keen observer of effective writing and a techie. Actually much of my work involves organizing technical projects and making sure they get done so my approach to almost everything is top down, beginning with an outline and carefully populating the resultant branches with concise details. Since I admire Dana's manner of committing thoughts to groups of words, I have to pay attention to particulary his first point of "just say it". Although it violates my long ingrained thoug ›››

JR, Not to be rude but that may have been the dumbest comment of the blog yet (post 397). Who cares if the presentation is in Power Point or not. I’ll sell you my shares for $600,000 each (plus tax). I am assuming you are involved in an LLC by your comments so I am sure someone will happily buy your 1/18th of one share. ›››

30. Brad Hutchings on The Internet As A Political Issue
Jesse has a good point that I overlooked. Akamai provides a very similar service, but charges nobody, since their business model is to pull money out of their posteriors. Not. What kind of question is that anyway? Of course the content providers will have to pay the ISPs for local caching because the content providers will have to build local cache access into their application AND they will want to ensure their content is DRM protected. This is not passive, interpoint caching. My poi ›››

31. Jesse Kopelman on The Internet As A Political Issue
Brad, why would the content provider have to pay for an ISP to use this caching technology? I don't believe people are paying to have their HTML cached, so why would they pay for this? The issue of net neutrality has nothing to do with technology. If it did, why would a video file bit be worth more than text file bit? Content providers pay to access the internet. Users pay to access the internet. Both sides of the connection are paid for. The Bells want to charge for preferential routing inbe ›››

32. Jeb on What Must Craigslist Do?
This is all fine and well except you forgot the CDA prevents liability from being placed on Craigslist. So unless you re-write the CDA, as it currently stands Craigslist /could/ charge for ads AND still not have liability for their content. But let's not confuse Craiglist's CDA-granted liability shield with the notion that commercial speech on the Internet cannot be controlled. The CDA allows for this, it just places the legal liability on the one who breaks the la ›››

33. Brad Hutchings on The Internet As A Political Issue
So where do you stand on technologies like this? Deployed by an ISP, it would have virtually the same effect as the ISP providing "toll lanes" for optional use by hi-bandwidth content providers. It would have to be paid for by the providers. Yet how could anyone argue that a system like this violates the concept of network neutrality? So that begs the q ›››

JR – Euclid’s demo is done via laptops, showing the REAL TIME comparative difference between existing standard MPEG4 compatible media players such as MS Windows Media Player, Real Networks Player, etc. The technology seamlessly integrates into their software showing a side-by-side comparison of the monumental difference Euclid’s technology makes. I seriously doubt that it would be done off-site in order to insure security of the software. ›››

A powerpoint presentation? It has now come down to a powerpoint presentation? I am not sure if most of you are retired or not but PP isnt the most up to date tech.,these guys are using powerpoint presentations to sell this? MS live meeting, placeware sessions, these allow you to present technology in a format that actually lets you interface with the working systems and for the audience to actually see it in action and not just on slides with stick figures and bullet points and screen shot ›››

KY ANGEL --- BALLSOFSTEEL’S information and advice is as good and current as it gets. Great job BOS. It is my observation that in spite of a number of entries that are essentially consistent, positive and confirm one another, some folks are always going to believe what they want to and get exercised over the latest questionable bit of news. Some see the glass half empty, while most of us see it getting fuller. ›››

B is also working on an investment newsletter and will be mailed next week. * To answer everyone's question regarding the units, please refer to tiny's comments.

42. Jesse Kopelman on Fall of Radio Shack
Radio Shack needs to go back to its original customers -- hobbyists who are looking for components. There are plenty of people out there who want to do custom home A/V setups, build their own gaming or HTPCs, or trick out their car electronics. There has got to be money in catering to them. I think there is especially a brick and mortar opportunity because some these componenets are purely aesthetic and one would like to see and handle before buying, while others cost less than the shipping w ›››

43. Amy Gahran on Blog Pimple About to Pop?
Well said, Dana. I've always thought it's problematic to try to make a business out of a buzzword -- at least, a business that will last more than about 6 months or so. After a while, people will start to realize that "blogs" aren't the point. The point is conversation and connection. IMHO, of course. - Amy Gahran RightConversation.com Contentious.com ›››

I may be wrong, but isnt this the part where the investment bankers step in and front the money for the sales porcess and take a percentage of the proceeds from the sale? This is how investment banking usually works, so why is more money needed? I can only imagine what type of salaries that these guys are drawing from the investments that we have all made. ›››
