The Future of the Internet explains the engine that has catapulted the Internet from backwater to ubiquity-and reveals that it is sputtering precisely because of its runaway success. With the unwitting help of its users, the generative Internet is on a path to a lockdown, ending its cycle of innovation-and facilitating unsettling new kinds of control. As tethered appliances and applications eclipse the PC, the very nature of the Internet-its "generativity," or innovative character-is at risk.

When adding an API to your web service, you have to choose how to encode the data you send across the line. XML is one common choice for this, but it can grow arcane and cumbersome pretty quickly. Lots of webservice authors want to avoid thinking about XML, and instead choose formats that provide a few simple data types that correspond to common data structures in modern programming languages. In other words, JSON and YAML.

In an historic public response to the US Federal Communications Commission's request for comments regarding its forthcoming National Broadband Plan, due before Congress on February 17, AT&T acknowledged not the forthcoming obsolescence, but the current obsolescence of the wireline telephone system. Without shame, it even applied the once-degrading acronym "POTS" (Plain Old Telephone System), interchangeably with "PSTN" (Public Switched Telephone Network), to refer to the one-time marvel of technology that defined its predecessor, the Bell System, in the 20th century.

Recientemente se ha presentado una iniciativa de la industria, TCPA, que se presenta como un método para aumentar el nivel de seguridad de los sistemas informáticos. Hay quien ve, por el contrario, que de aplicarse puede suponer la muerte del software de código abierto tal como lo entendemos hoy.

For the last several months, a large team of Googlers has been working on a secret project: a next-generation architecture for Google's web search. It's the first step in a process that will let us push the envelope on size, indexing speed, accuracy, comprehensiveness and other dimensions. The new infrastructure sits "under the hood" of Google's search engine, which means that most users won't notice a difference in search results. But web developers and power searchers might notice a few differences, so we're opening up a web developer preview to collect feedback

"Every File Extension in the World" This is a list of file extension names or suffixes that indicate the format or usage of a file and a brief description of that file extension. In general, if you have the program that uses that file extension, that program can be used to open or otherwise use the file

This page describes how to the client-side Weave API for sync engines (and their helper classes). The focus is on using this API to create a new sync engine to synchronize a new data type. The data type can be anything that extension JS code has access to through any Mozilla API; this means this page must of necessity be pretty vague about reading and writing the underlying data. You'll have to fill in those blanks yourself. Try browsing the [link] xpcom documentation to find out how to get at the many types of useful data that Mozilla stores.

The intent of the H.264/AVC project was to create a standard capable of providing good video quality at substantially lower bit rates than previous standards (e.g. half or less the bit rate of MPEG-2, H.263, or MPEG-4 Part 2), without increasing the complexity of design so much that it would be impractical or excessively expensive to implement. An additional goal was to provide enough flexibility to allow the standard to be applied to a wide variety of applications on a wide variety of networks and systems, including low and high bit rates, low and high resolution video, broadcast, DVD storage, RTP/IP packet networks, and ITU-T multimedia telephony systems.

One thing we hear a lot from Firebug users is that Firebug slows down Firefox. When Firebug is active, particularly when you've enabled the Console/Script panels, some pages perform much more slowly. Enabling these panels turns on all of our debugging hooks, so some slowdown isn't surprising, but what may surprise you is that, in order to get accurate debugging information, these hooks also turn off Firefox' high-performance Javascript JIT compiler, even when Firebug is inactive. And now we have a fix for that.
