A friend of mine at work just posted these two links: RFC 1149: A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers RFC 2549: IP over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service Sorry to those who can’t make heads or tails of these. It’s only funny if you haven’t had enough sleep.

Recently I made contact with an old friend of mine, from my childhood, Mr. Phillip Wray. During our inaugural first conversation in something like almost 30 years, he mentioned a photographic process called ‘Draganizing’. He sent me a link to a fellow who had done some of this, but I wanted to know where the [...]
Many Eyes
I saw, in the comments on a friend’s blog1, a reference to this fine IBM application, Many Eyes, designed to allow you to share data and visualizations of that data with people on the net.
