+*	Bruce Sterling [lets Flickr know why they suck][1]. On the transition to a Yahoo-based login Sterling writes, "I don't gain any benefit by this. Where's my value proposal? There's nothing in this proposal for me. You are exploiting your Web 2.0 social muscle and twisting my arm here. Is that Flickr-like behavior? Aren't you a little ashamed of yourselves?"

+
+*	Listing Post's Eliot Van Buskirk [wonders][3] why MySpace kicked Amie Street off the site (Amie Street has since rebuilt their page). The truth is the new page will probably be deleted as well because one of the little known clauses in the web 2.0 contract is that things which suck (MySpace) are not allowed to co-mingle with things that do not suck (Amie St). Trust me it's in the EULA.

+The popular Mac file transfer software [Interarchy][1] has been updated to version 8.5. Interarchy also has a new owner. Formerly Interarchy was developed by Peter N Lewis's Stairways Software, but Matthew Drayton (a long time Stairways employee) has acquired the rights and is releasing Interarchy through his new company Nolobe. John Gruber has [a nice interview][2] with both men about the transition.
+
+Version 8.5 of Interarchy adds some nice new features including an "Open in Terminal" command which allows you to jump from an Interarchy browsing window straight over to an SSH tunnel in the same directory.
+
+Other new features include:
+
+*	Improved Get Info window:
+*	A new Scripts menu
+*	A new Dock menu with the following commands: Connect to Server, Bookmarks, Bonjour, History and Scripts
+*	You can now chain file converters together. For example you could chain the Backup and gzip converters ("Backup, gzip") to have your uploaded files encoded using Backup and then compressed using gzip.
+*	Can now drag & drop a file/folder from a listing window onto a list bookmark in the Bookmarks window.
+
+There have also been numerous bug fixes and other enhancements. The last time I used Interarchy it was at version 6 and when [Transmit][3] came on the market with a split pane view of local and remote files it seduced me away from Interarchy. But I've been playing around with Interarchy for a few hours now and I'm impressed.
+
+There's still no split view windows, but the fact that Interarchy more or less mirrors the functionality and behavior of Apple's Finder app makes it really easy to use and the "Open in Terminal command is brilliant, especially if you happen to be working with a framework like Django which has a lot of command line tools.
+
+Interarchy is by far the fastest FTP program I've ever used. The interface response is almost instantaneous and transfer rates are faster than those of Transmit and [Cyberduck][4], which I also use. Interarchy also sports tabbed windows, making it easy to have a number of directories open at the same time. 
+
+What makes Interarchy stand out from it's peers is the plethora of extra tools it includes like full network monitor tools, DNs lookups, port scans, pings and more. Imagine most of OS X's NetInfo program rolled into your FTP client with a few more tools thrown in for good measure and that's the power of Interarchy.
+
+Although Interarchy has a number of things to recommend it, I also have a few gripes. Most of Interarchy's features mirror the Finder, but it skips the search box in the toolbar, which is a shame since large directory listings often cry out for some sort of filtering. Also Interarchy's default action for double clicking files is to download them, which seems counter intuitive, generally double clicking means you want to open the file. It's possible to change the behavior of the double click but you'll have to do it separately for each type of file.
+
+Gripes aside, if Interarchy added a double pane browser that let me dig into remote and local directories in the same window, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Depending on your needs and habits, Interarchy just might be the FTP app you've been looking for. 
+
+Interarchy 8.5 costs $60, existing users can upgrade for $30.

+Aside from OS wars, text editors are one of the most religiously debated topics on the net. There are some who say that [we don't need any new text editors][2], but I disagree, there's always room to improve the wheel. 
+
+[InType][1] is a new text editor for Windows that I've been using for a few days now and I think the potential is enormous.
+
+While not a direct copy, or even affiliated with the popular Mac text editor, [TextMate][3], InType is "inspired" by and seeks to bring a TextMate-like experience to the Windows platform. With Vista borrowing some of its UI approach from OS X, I thought why not try out a Mac-inspired text editor?
+
+The good news is that InType is very very fast. The bad news is that InType is very much an alpha product, it doesn't even support undo yet -- though that should be added in the next few days -- and it's not up for production use. 
+
+Since InType is brand new and lists itself as alpha I won't go into a full review, but I did want to say that I found it to be quite stable. Of course InType is lacking in functionality, however what functionality it does have is easy to use and InType is fast and very enjoyable to use.
+
+Judging by the activity in the [InType forums][4], InType has an active and enthusiastic bunch of developers working round the clock. There's already support for TextMate-like bundles, it isn't perfect by any means, but the basic functionality is in place.
+
+I don't suggest running out and trying InType just yet, but it's definitely one to keep your eye on. For a visual preview check out the screenshots below.

+If you're a keyboard junky or have mouse phobia, a good application launcher will vastly improve your Windows Vista experience. After trying out several launchers my number one pick is [Launchy][1].
+
+The first thing I did on installing Windows Vista was scour the web for a good, keyboard-based application launcher. Okay, technically that's not true, the first thing I did was download Firefox and disable IE *then* I went looking for an application launcher.
+
+For the uninitiated application launchers are a means of avoiding the start menu and being able to launch application without taking your fingers off the keyboard. There are a number of them available but Launchy does what I wanted and offers a quite a few extras to boot. It's also free and open source (GNU GPL license).
+
+Launchy indexes the programs in your start menu and can launch your documents, project files, folders, and bookmarks with just a few keystrokes. For instance, hit the default hotkey combo, alt-space, and then type "fire" and Firefox should pop up, press return to launch the app. If you wait a few seconds before pressing return Launchy will display a list of alternate choices for your abbreviation.
+
+But Launchy can do a lot more than just launch documents and apps, here's a quick list of tips and tricks for extending Launchy:
+
+*	Search Google (Type in google, then tab, then your search query and press enter. a new window/tab will open in your default browser)
+*	Other sites you can search include Wikipedia, Yahoo, Amazon, Netflix and more.
+*	Browse your computer (Type in c:, then tab, then a folder or file, hit tab, and continue)
+*	Index your Firefox bookmarks, including keyword searches
+*	Index your music (Directory: My Documents, file types: .mp3 .aac .ogg etc)
+	
+I should note that on Vista I had some issues with the indexing features, but following the [advice in the Launchy forums][2], I was able to get it working.
+
+Launchy is free, but if you like it and want to support future development you can make a donation on the [Launchy website][1].

Here's [the whole quote][3] set off so everybody can see it nice and clear:
+
+>Nowadays, security guys break the Mac every single day. Every single day, they come out with a total exploit, your machine can be taken over totally. I dare anybody to do that once a month on the Windows machine
+
+How about it clever Monkeybites readers? Can anyone find a system critical exploit in the next 30 days? We'll go ahead and count the shouting hack just cause it's funny, even though it probably isn't all that threatening. So you just need one more hack to prove Gates wrong. We'll get you some sort of prize. Probably just a mediocre level of fame that won't last more than 30 seconds, but hey think of the personal satisfaction you'll feel.

+Last week was a busy one and I didn't get around to the Tutorial o' the Day for which I apologize, but it's back and this week we're tackling a hot one: Ajax. Ajax is an acronym for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, coined by Adaptive Path's Jesse James Garrett (Garret doesn't capitalize the acronym and I've followed his lead since I believe the all-caps version refers to a Colgate registered trademark).

The term Ajax gets bandied about quite a bit, usually in conjunction with that wretch-inducing catch phrase -- web 2.0. Depending on who you're talking to, Ajax can alternately be celebrated as the panacea of the future or, more cynically, the "skip intro" of the 21st century. 

To get a good overview of how Ajax works, have a look at Garrett's [article][2] on the subject; it gets fairly technical at times, but if you have some background in web development it shouldn't be too hard to follow.

In order to help you decide whether Ajax is right for your site, I thought we'd start off with another nice overview tutorial/guide from Eddie Traversa of DHTML Nirvana, entitled, aptly enough, *[Ajax: What is it Good For?][1]*.

Traversa walks you through Ajax's history and provides a nice synopsis of what Ajax is and how it can be useful.

>It also needs to be clear that Ajax isn't a technology as such but rather is a technique that combines well with other technologies and techniques. For example, xml, dhtml, css, xhtml. In fact, Ajax really is DHTML with the xmlhttprequest object thrown in

That last sentence is just about the best sound-bite summary of Ajax I've ever heard. 

The tutorial also walks you through a simple example and provides all the necessary files to get your Ajax experiment up and running.

+Continuing a welcome trend of mashing together various parts of its empire, Google has [added maps to Google Book Search][1]. Currently the feature is far from universal, but in those places where it's most applicable, e.g. guidebooks, the "about this book" page now features a Google map with markers representing all the locations mentioned in the book.

The Google Book Search blog says:

>When our automatic techniques determine that there are a good number of quality locations from a book to show you, you'll find a map on the "About this book" page.

What constitutes "quality locations" is anyone's guess, but a few random searches outside the guidebook genre turned up some interesting maps including one for Bram Stoker's *[Dracula][4]* and Neal Stephenson's globe trotting *[Cryptonomicon][5]*. The Google Book Blog lists some other, non-guide examples including *[The Travels of Marco Polo][3]* and *[Around The World In Eighty Days][2]*.


Each map pin has shows the revelant text from the book and there's a direct link to that page in the book which allows you to see if the information contained is germane to your needs.

While it's fun to zoom to locations in Jules Verne's classic, it may not ultimately be very useful, however, for those looking for a guidebook, the new mapping features are quite helpful.

Unfortunately in some cases the mapping data is not particularly relevant. For instance in the Dracula link given above one of the listings is for Waterloo, Canada (just outside of Toronto) when in fact the book is referring to the more famous [Waterloo][6] of present day Belgium.

Of course a Google search for Waterloo also brings up the Canadian city far ahead of the site in belgium, but since standard Google searches aren't contextual, that isn't really a problem. But maps within Google Books are contextual and somewhat misleading as a result.

Technical quibbles aside, the maps-books mash-up is still quite fun and I'm looking forward to seeing it improve over time.

Mapping for the [Rough Guide to Guatamala][7]:

+After close to a year of beta testing, Adobe has announced that its new flagship RAW processing software, Lightroom 1.0 will be [available beginning mid February][1]. Lightroom will be available for both Windows and Mac (universal) and will sell for $300, mirroring the pricing of Apple competitor, [Aperture][2].

We should note that, [according to Ars Technica][3], while Lightroom will run fine on Windows Vista, users will need to wait for a free update for full disc-burning support.

New features in the final version of Lightroom include:

*	Improvements to Develop, Slideshow, Printing and Web output

*	Improved import dialogue with more flexible file handling that allows Lightroom internal data to better match disk structure.

*	A new Key Metadata Browser improves the ranking and rating system and now incorporates color labels and a pick/reject system that sorts and locates photographs.

*	Additional tools including a Hue, Saturation and Luminance adjustments.

*	Full compatibility with Photoshop Camera RAW 3.7

*	Virtual Copies and Snapshot tools allow multiple RAW settings on a single physical file.


Camera RAW 3.7 will be released at the same time as Lightroom and features a number of upgrades as well including support for Lightroom's new non-destructive RAW editing tools.

Adobe claims that more than 500,000 users participated in the public beta program over the last 12 months. John Loiacono, senior vice president, Creative Solutions Business Unit at Adobe said in a press release, "this was truly a collaborative effort and we extend our thanks to everyone who provided invaluable feedback."

Adobe says that, despite the "Photoshop" in Lightroom's official name, the program will not be part of the Photoshop suite, but will remain a standalone program. Nor will Lightroom, as some have claimed, replace Bridge, Adobe's basic RAW editing tool that ships as part of Photoshop.

Most of the features in Lightroom mirror that of Apple's Aperture tool and with nearly identical price points, the competition between the two should start heating up. As soon as we get our hands on a copy of Lightroom 1.0 we'll let you know how the two stack up against each other.

[Lightroom beta 4.1][4] will continue to work until expiration on Febrary 28.

+People who upload their own movies to YouTube will soon get a [share of the ad revenue][1]. As we mentioned in the Morning Reboot, YouTube's Chad Hurley let slip this weekend that a revenue sharing program is in the works (see video after the jump).

What remains unclear is exactly what form the revenue sharing will take, the [BBC][3] reports that one of the options might be pre-roll ads, but hopefully that won't be the case. Arguably one the keys to YouTube's success thus far is that they have eschewed in-stream ads.

But lack of compensation has driven many YouTubers to turn to competing services like [lonelygirl15][5], who now posts on both YouTube and the monitized site Revver.

Sites like [Revver][4] and [Metacafe][2] have differentiated themselves from YouTube primarily by offering compensation for content creators, but with YouTube jumping in the revenue sharing game they may lose their appeal. 

Revver shares in-stream ad revenue with users and Metacafe offers Producer Rewards which functions in much the same way. Metacafe manages to set itself apart from YouTube a little bit more by reviewing and filtering content and catering more toward semi-professional video producers. 

As Arik Czerniak, co-founder & CEO of Metacafe says, "a 5-minute clip of your toddler's birthday isn't going to make it to Metacafe's site but it will sit on YouTube."

Czerniak says that the challenges YouTube will face lie in finding the content that will make advertising dollars. There's also the issue of exposure, which can be hard to come by on YouTube. How do you stand out and earn revenue when there's already a million existing videos of backyard ninja stunts on YouTube?

Then of course there's the copyright issues, if users are able to monotize copyrighted clips of the Simpsons you can bet the lawsuits are going to come crashing down. Presumably YouTube plans to address the copyright issues before it goes public with the new revenue sharing service.

Metacafe's Czerniak isn't worried about YouTube's planned sharing model. "You have to market and promote your own video to get noticed and it's very easy to get lost," he says. He believes that Metacafe's reviewed content model offers a better solution, "if your content is good, it will rise to the top."

Much like Czerniak's vision of Metacafe, the most financially viable of these sites will also likely rise to the top, and only time will tell which one will come out ahead.

+[Technorati][2] launched a new [search annotation feature][1] yesterday that allows logged in users to annotate and explain popular search terms. The new features is called "WTF" though in this case the popular acronym has been re-branded to the more family-oriented phrase, "Where's the Fire?"
+
+The idea behind WTF is that popular search terms often leave the uninitiated asking "why is this being talked about right now?" WTF lets the community explain themselves with short posts which then show up at the top of popular Technorati searches (screenshots after the jump).
+
+Niall Kennedy, a former Technorati employee, [explains][3] the new service succinctly on his blog:
+
+>Technorati WTF is a mini-blog post aimed at a specific audience. Bloggers who used to try and summarize the top search results on their own blog and attract the attention of searchers can now add a note and possibly gain a reputation directly on the Technorati search result page.
+
+Any given term can have unlimited WTFs written for it and the top WTF is based on votes from other users. There aren't really enough WTFs at this point to judge how well Technorati's voting algorithm is, but the WTF for WTF (natch) claims that Technorati uses "a special time weighted voting system that means that the most popular recent WTFs will show up on top of the page."
+
+WTF holds a fairly high potential for driving traffic to your blog. For instance, if you create a term that gets some buzz, so to speak, you can write up a WTF and link to your explanation. If the community votes your WTF to the top of the heap, you'll have top billing on Technorati regardless of the rank of your blog.
+
+The outbound links on WTF pages have "nofollow" tags so getting your site a link in WTF isn't going to help your PageRank, but it will likely drive a fair bit of traffic.
+
+Of course, because of that potential, WTF seems like it's just waiting to be abused. For instance, what if company A writes a WTF about company B alleging that the later sacrifices babies under the full moon? Unless company B is on the ball and monitoring WTF, the misleading post may well be the only entry for company B.
+
+Of course the Technorati community can also keep abuse in check, but if WTF turns into a constant editing battle it might well lose its appeal.

+To celebrate the release of Microsoft's new operating system we've decided to make February Windows Vista Month. Everyday we'll run a couple of posts focused on helping you get more out of your Vista experience, which mean tips, tricks, hints, software reviews and more.
+
+To get things rolling I thought I'd point out a couple of nice Vista factoids that I've run across in last two days.
+
+First off, if you were a Vista Beta Tester you probably got a key for Windows Vista Ultimate. It turns out, according to [Windows-Now.com][1], that key will qualify you for the Vista Family Discount. The family discount means that with the purchase of Vista Ultimate, you are entitled to two copies of Windows Vista Home Premium for $49.99 each.
+
+That's not a bad deal and kudo's to Microsoft for treating their hardworking beta testers right.
+
+The second tidbit is something I wish every software manufacturer would embrace embrace, the free 30-day trial. Yes you can try Vista for free for thirty days and see if you like it. 
+
+However it turns out you can extend that 30-day trial to 120, which might mean you can use Vista for free until the first service pack comes out.
+
+[According][2] to Jeff Atwood, at Coding Horror this trick has the official blessing of Microsoft. To reset your Vista trial you need to be logged in as an Administrator. Then fire up the command prompt and enter this line:
+
+	slmgr -rearm
+
+
+You'll need to restart your computer, but once you do your trial period should be reset. This trick will work three times which should give you plenty of time to decide if Microsoft Vista is worth your hard earned cash.

+Clippy is dead. Long live Clippy. 
+
+After battling for years with a default setting by the ill-boding name of "off," Clippy finally succumbed to the forces of progress earlier today. With today's introduction of Office 2007 Clippy is officially gone (unless there's an Easter egg in there somewhere).
+
+Clippy, real name Office Assistant, made his debut in Microsoft Office 97 with such clever quips as "it looks like you're writing a letter, would you like help?" and other words of endearment. Fans loved Clippy, as evidenced by this [famous video][1] (video - NSFW).
+
+Sporting Great Gatsby-esque eyeballs and eyebrows on Groucho Marx could justify, Clippy was born to parents, er, parent "[Bob][2]" sometime in 1996. Bob, who retired early after winning the coveted "[worst product of the decade][3]" award from CNET.com, now works as a facial model for the "nerd smiley" in MSN messenger.
+
+Young Clippy had a shamanistic bent and apparently enjoyed shape-shifting (among other less printable proclivities). Clippy was also know to take forms such as The Dot, F-1 (a robot), The Genius, Mother Nature, Scribble (a cat) and Power Pup.
+
+For the time being memories of Clippy will remain at work in legacy versions of Microsoft Office. He will be missed. Clippy declined to comment for this story saying, "I don't know, it doesn't look like you're writing a letter."

+One of the great things about Ajax is it allows you take advantage of all your scattered data spread across popular online sharing sites --bookmark sites, photo sites and more. While not every "web 2.0" site offers an API to access its data, the better ones frequently do, which means you can pull the data into your own website. 
+
+Application Program Interfaces (APIs) are simple ways of accessing outside data and pulling it into your own site.
+
+Popular websites featuring robust APIs include [Google Maps][4], [del.icio.us][3] and [Amazon][5]. If you'd like to see what you can do with a robust API, I use the [Flickr API][2] to pull in my Flickr stream and store the data locally on my [personal site][6].
+
+But for the non-programer APIs can be intimidating. There is often a myriad of techniques and languages for interacting with a public API. That flexibility is part of the appeal of APIs but it's also one of the things that makes it confusing for newcomers -- where do you start?
+
+Well one place would be using Ajax. Accessing an API through JavaScript can sometimes be a little bit slower, but it's often much simpler as well. 
+
+One of the best tutorials I know of for Ajax API integration is Think Vitamin's [Go Forth and API][1]. The tutorial has links to popular services and then walks you through the process of interacting with the Google Maps API via Ajax.
+
+So go forth and API. And if you'd like to point out other tutorials feel free to leave them in the comments below.

Microsoft delivers the first new operating system in five years and the tech community seems to be doing a collective yawn. Our own Robert Lemos [reports][1] on empty stores on the East Coast, blogger Niall Kennedy [says][2] no one lined up in San Francisco, Gizmodo [calls][3] the release party "a PowerPoint presentation in the flesh" (which can't be good) and ZDNet blogger Mary Jo Coley [reports][4] that while there was a crowd at the Best Buy store on Fifth Avenue and 44th Street in Manhattan, "the vast majority in attendance seemed to be TV crews, reporters and Microsoft PR people."
+
+I feel Microsoft's pain. I tried to throw a party once last summer and everyone said, "oh yeah, sounds great" we'll be there and then come show time it was me and two other people working our way through a really large bowl of sangria.
+
+I my case it worked out for the best, but this is the biggest thing likely to come out of Redmond for years. Even the Zune looks like a highly anticipated release next to this, and Windows 95 certainly drew in the crowds, but has the shine gone out the release party?
+
+Apple still manages to draw pretty heavy for their releases, and despite a lukewarm reaction to Vista, I expected a little more hoopla for the first new version of Windows in five years.
+
+I have a theory on this lackluster launch: no one gets excited about work. For the average person computers, software and operating systems represent something they use at work. Sure they probably have one at home too, but Microsoft's true test of Vista is not really the consumer, it's businesses.
+
+Frankly the amount of enthusiasm the Apple faithful manage to generate for even the most of lackluster of products makes me nervous, so while on one hand I'm surprised at the lack of enthusiasm for Vista, I also can't help thinking it's a good thing. Perhaps the world is right, there's nothing exciting about a new operating system -- maybe instead of lining up for Vista, everyone is out strolling through a park with a loved one in hand.

+At this point there isn't much I can tell you about Windows Vista that you probably haven't already heard, so consider this entirely subjective, but I really like Vista. I installed Vista through Apple's Bootcamp in order to test Office 2007 and have since converted that installation to a Parallels-based virtual machine.
+
+As Leander [noted recently][1] on Cult of Mac, Vista is screaming fast when you run it natively on recent Mac hardware and I'd agree with him that Vista "feels" faster than OS X in many respects. 
+
+On moving my installation over to a virtual machine, the speed dropped off considerably, but it's still very usable. Vista performs at speeds roughly the same as XP (also running in a virtual machine), but I did find that disabling the Aero effects sped things up quite a bit. Your own experience will depend somewhat on how much RAM you allow Parallels to allocate to Vista -- I'm giving it 640MB.
+
+Quite frankly I did not expect to be particularly impressed with Vista, but I am. I like the design, it has a very dark, classy look to it. You can dismiss that as irrelevant if you want, but I appreciate well thought out design choices and Microsoft certainly pulled out all the stops with Vista.
+
+Of course I'm not using Vista extensively, I don't have to live in it. If I did, you can bet I'd be complaining about DRM and peripheral support among other things. If you're seeking an objective point of view, have a look at Bruce Gain's [recent article][5].
+
+I now have four operating systems running on my Macbook, OS X, Vista, XP and Ubuntu Linux. Granted most people don't test and write about software for a living so you might not have any need for such diversity, but it's certainly doable if you're interested.
+
+For the most part I still work in OS X, but using [Firefox][2] for browsing, [Thunderbird][3] for email (IMAP), and [emacs][4] for writing I'm able to get more or less the same experience across all the platforms. 
+
+And I'm learning to rely less on vender specific software and more on cross-platform solutions so that the tools I need for my day to day work needs are platform independent. I like Vista, I like OS X and I like Linux, but I don't want to be tied to any of them.

+Michael just [posted a roundup][7] of our [Vista Predictions][8] survey we ran a couple days back and I couldn't help but notice that one of my predictions failed to make the top ten. In fact it failed to get much support at all. At last count there are only thirteen people that agree with my hypothesis that Apple will buyout [Parallels][6] virtualization software and start bundling Vista with Mac.
+
+Now I know it sounds perverse, but hear me out.
+
+First of all Apple has a history of buying/absorbing/ripping off technologies it likes. The cover art in iTunes 7 was a plugin Apple purchased from the developer. iTunes itself comes from the code base that was originally [SoundJam MP][1]. And then there's the whole Dashboard - Konfabulator debate that's already been beat to death.
+
+And Apple likes Parallels. Granted Apple has said it [isn't interested ][2] in virtualization software, but Steve Jobs denied the existence of [Marklar][3] for years and that turned out to be true. The fact is Apple is way too secretive to be taken at its word. Besides which is you read that article closely you'll notice Apple's Phil Schiller says Apple has no interest in virtualization *for Leopard*. Okay, but how about 10.6?
+
+So why do I think Apple will buy Parallels? For one thing Parallels keeps cranking out free updates which mean either they're really cool, or they have some funding from somewhere. Development is expensive and companies rarely give it away.
+
+Another reason I stand by this prediction is Windows Vista. Vista is a really nice looking piece of software, the sort of thing that Mac users [seem to like][4]. While sales may be slow off of the blocks, Vista will eventually come to hold 95 percent of the market just like its predecessors have done.
+
+The reason Windows' dominance in the OS market doesn't threaten Apple is because Apple is in the hardware business. OS X is a great system and obviously Apple has put a lot of money into it, but they don't recoup it by selling the OS, they make money by selling the machine that runs the OS.
+
+Given that 95 percent of the market clearly wants to run Windows, Apple stands to make giant strides in hardware sales if they can bundle both OSes with their hardware. Combine this with a generation of kids growing up with iPods and a love of Halo and you can see where the market potential is huge.
+
+Now Apple claims they aren't interested in virtualization because of the performance hit (and apparently Wired readers believe with them). 
+
+Fair enough, how about I change my prediction slightly? Forget Parallels, what about Wine? [Wine is open source][5], which means Apple could take the code and improve/customize it -- just like they took FreeBSD for OS X and Konqueror for Safari -- so long as they donate that code back to the project.
+
+Wine has the distinct advantage of doing something Apple users clearly want (running Windows apps), but doesn't violate Apple's obsessive control over the "user experience." That is, Wine runs Windows software, not Windows. 
+
+Here's my new scenario:
+
+*	Apple retains control the user experience in the primary OS -- OS X. 
+*	Bootcamp allows for a separate install of Windows (sold as an add-on with new Macs). 
+*	Apple takes Wine and creates something called *Bootstrap* which allows you to open and use your Windows Apps and documents within your OS X partition.
+
+How you like dem apples?

+As I mentioned in the reboot, Flickr sent out some emails last night to users who haven't yet switched over to a Yahoo ID encouraging them to do so. The official deadline to do so isn't until MArch 15th, but clearly Flickr would like to expedite the transition.
+
+The change applies only to those of us who signed up with Flickr prior to the Yahoo acquisition last year. As one who falls in that group I decided the go ahead and migrate my account last night. My experience was seamless, but here's two caveats, one, my username is a made up word so there's isn't going to be a name conflict when changing to Yahoo and two, I don't have more than 3,000 contacts nor do I have any photos with more than 75 tags.
+
+If you do end up with a different username you will have to update any outside tools that store your Flickr username or password.
+
+Some users reported losing contacts and tags when they swtiched, but as it turns out this isn't limited to old school Flickr users. If you do have more than 3,000 contacts or have photos with more than 75 tags, you're going to lose some data in the transition, but even if you're a recent member those limits still apply to you.
+
+Because you must be logged in to read the official Flickr announcement, I'll reprint it in its entirety:
+
+>A pair of items for your attention:
+
+In our ongoing efforts to Make Flickr Better<sup>TM</sup>, we're introducing two additional limits: the new maximum number of contacts is 3,000 contacts (good luck with that), and each photo on Flickr can have a maximum of 75 tags.
+
+We love your freedom, but, in this particular case, limiting these things will actually improve the system performance, making pages load faster across the site for everyone and cut out some unwelcome spammy behaviors. Both of these new limits apply equally to free and pro account members.
+
+If you have questions or comments about these changes, we've opened a <a href="http://www.Flickr.com/forums/help/32686/">topic in Flickr Help</a>.
+
+On March 15th, 2007 we'll be discontinuing the old email-based Flickr sign in system. From that point on, everyone will have to use a Yahoo! ID to sign in to Flickr.
+
+We're making this change now to simplify the sign in process in advance of several large projects launching this year, but some Flickr features and tools already require Yahoo! IDs for sign in -- like the mobile site at m.Flickr.com or the new Yahoo! Go program for mobiles, available at <a href="http://go.yahoo.com">http://go.yahoo.com</a>.
+
+If you still sign in using the email-based Flickr system (<a href="/signin/Flickr/">here</a>), you can make the switch at any time in the next few months, from today till the 15th. (After that day, you'll be required to merge before you continue using your account.) To switch, start at this page: <a href="http://Flickr.com/account/associate/">http://Flickr.com/account/associate/</a>
+
+
+This isn't the first time a company has tried to pass off an artificial limitation as a "feature," but it's the first time Flickr has and it's drawing fire from users. I sympathize with those that say, "who cares, those limits are plenty high enough," but the change is still a bad move on Flickr's part.
+
+The logic that restrictions will make "pages load faster across the site for everyone," doesn't wash for me. If your site is having performance issues it's time to look at your code base, not penalize users. If Flickr is in fact being honest with this logic, it doesn't bode well for the future. 
+
+Obviously I don't know anything about Flickr's code base, but generally speaking if one user with 500 tags on a photo slows a system down, 500 users with one tag are also going to slow the same system down. In other words the problem is the system, not the user and passing the problem along to the user is just plain wrong. 
+
+Consider this offer: I have an incredibly fast photo sharing site on my laptop here at home, it smokes anything Flickr has got, but to get this incredibly blazing fast site and make it work for everyone, you're limited to one photo. Obviously no one would join my site, but the truth is Flickr's new restrictions differ only in terms of scale, not concept.
+
+So perhaps the limits aren't so bad since they're fairly high, but the logic behind them doesn't make sense. Bad Flickr, no donut.

+The Nightly Build:
+
+*	As someone who's been writing about Vista in Parallels and how great it is, I was dismayed to learn that the EULA forbids the use of the Home Basic and Home Premium version of Vista in virtual environments. Say what? The Parallel's blog [has more details][1].

+
+[2]: http://www.skype.com/download/skype/macosx/ "Skype 2.5 for Mac"
+
+*	Now the Vista has been released the security exploits are starting to roll in. This one isn't all that serious but it's kind of funny. Apparently a flaw in the speech command system would allow malicious, um, yelling, to [commandeer your computer][3]. Expect this one to be popular on MySpace.
+
+[3]: http://blogs.zdnet.com/Ou/index.php?&p=416 "Vista Speech Command exposes remote exploit"
+
+*	Earlier today I gave Flickr a hard time about their [newly imposed limitations][4], but then I discovered something potentially much more disturbing. So far this is just a [hysterical thread on Digg][5], but it seems that Yahoo is using Flickr photos on some of their public portals without the author's permission. I don't know for sure whether that's legal or not under the respective TOSes, I'm not even sure whether Flickr is now governed by the Yahoo TOS or the old Flickr TOS. And how do the CC license you can apply to your photos fit into that? I'll be digging into this one more tomorrow.

+I thought I'd follow up my [Super Bowl Party][1] article with some more in depth reviews of the services mentioned and to kick that off we'll start with [MyPunchBowl][2]. As I mention in the article, MyPunchBowl is a party planning site designed to help you create a webpage for your party.
+
+MyPunchBowl takes the familiar features of Evite and raises the bar considerably by offering a wide range of social networking tools to help you plan and organize your party as well as interact with your guests both before and after your party. 
+
+Once you sign up for an account you can get started by creating a party. MyPunchBowl has a number of preset templates for parties (right now they've got a special "football party" template) or you can create your own custom templates. 
+
+There's a number of ways to customize your party's page including some nice Ajax color widgets that updates in realtime. Other options include uploading a picture (or pulling one in from your Flickr account) and mapping tools via Google Maps.
+
+Once you have your party page looking the way you want it, it's time to add your friends to your guest list. MyPunchBowl can import your contacts list from just about any popular email service including, GMail, Hotmail, Yahoo, or if all else fails you can export your contacts as a .csv file import them.
+
+After you have your guest list filled in, you can start sending out invites. If you don't have clear plans yet, but you know you want to have a party on certain date, you can send out a "save the date" message to your guest list and follow up later with details. 
+
+Perhaps my favorite feature of MyPunchBowl is the ability to append personalized messages at the top of each mass email you send. Its a nice touch and it will make your mailing seem a little less generic.
+
+Once your announcement goes out, MyPunchBowl makes it easy to coordinate with your guests. There's a message board for posting comments or suggestions and you can always send out individual messages to encourage the slackers.
+
+For the vast majority of the party panning sites I looked at, that's the end of the story, but MyPunchBowl offers some nice after-party features like the ability to display your photos on your party page. If you host your photos on Flickr it's easy to pull them in to your MyPunchBowl page, just enter your Flickr username and all the sets in your photostream will come up (note that depending on how may sets you have, this could take a minute). Select the set you want to display and MyPunchBowl will pull display it for all your guests to see.
+
+And photo sharing isn't limited to just the host, anyone on your guest list can add their photos as well, which gives you a single page from which to see all your party pics.
+
+One key thing MyPunchBowl lacks at the moment is SMS support which would be handy for the those last-minute, day-of reminders. The folks behind MyPunchBowl assure me that they're planning SMS support for the near future, but in the mean time you'll have to take care of that yourself.

+[Renkoo][1] is another party planning site that aims to improve on the Evite model. Renkoo's main twist is the variety of party types that it allows you to create. Creating an invite in Renkoo give you a myriad of choices ranging from the vague email to friends that says he lets do lunch this week, to the specific, I'm having a party on x date.
+
+Once your account is set up you can add your friends by importing a contact list. As with MyPunchBowl, Renkoo leverages Plaxo to import lists so you should be able to import almost any contact info you have whether it's through GMail or a custom .csv file.
+
+Creating a new invite brings up a form that lets you add a title and description and then asks for a kin of the invite which includes options like, "drink," "food," "gathering" and more (see screenshot below).
+
+The form also asks you to either pick a date or choose something nebulous like "this week."
+
+There's also a field for picking a location and deciding which friends to invite. Once you have your invite set up you can send it out to your invite list and they will receive an email with links to RSVP. From there you can chat with your friends using Renkoo to figure the details.
+
+Renkoo also allows you to send messages via SMS which makes it easy to send out notices about last minute changes.
+
+Renkoo seems less geared toward a planning intensive one-off party and more suitable for the casual get-together, and most of the site's tools reflect that emphasis. 
+
+Renkoo has strong promise, but it is still in beta and there are a number of [known issues][2], the biggest of which is that your Safari using friends are going to be left out of the fun.

+There are times when Ajax makes the web a lovely place and there are times when it drives even the most progressive of web surfers a bit batty. It's the J. Yes Javascript is main problem in Ajax since not all browsers handle it the same and some users disable it altogether.
+
+But that's no reason to abandon Ajax completely. The secret is to make sure your Ajax functionality degrades gracefully, that is, users without Javascript or whose browsers don't quite support what you're doing should still be able to accomplish the same tasks without the Ajax.
+
+There is no magic bullet tutorial I can point to for accessibility issues with Ajax, every situation is different. A good rule of thumb is to design your app without Javascript and then start adding it in afterward, but in some cases that might not be practical.
+
+Because there's no cure-all, today we have not really a tutorial but a list of tutorials and articles that address various aspects of Javascript usability. Max Kiesler has rounded up 40 tutorials in an article entitled [How to Make Your AJAX Applications Accessible][1].
+
+The issues addressed in the tutorials in Kiesler's round-up won't solve all the problems and in some cases there may not be a way to solve certain issues, but at least it's a start.

+Yahoo had a bit of snafu this evening. I linked to it in the nightly build, but I wanted to follow up a bit. Yahoo has been pulling in a stream of all Flickr photos tagged "Wii" to display on their [Wii portal][1]. The only problem with that is that according to the terms of service on Flickr, the copyright of all Flickr photos remains in the hands of the user. 
+
+Naturally on discovering this the Flickr community promptly pwned Yahoo by uploading a barrage of anti-Yahoo photos tagged "wii," which now fill the first several pages of the Wiiportal. My personal favorite is the hand pointing up with the text "I'm with stupid." Power to the people.
+
+As far as I can tell no one got a goatse image through which is too bad, if you have or know of a screencap of a goatse image on the front page of the Wii portal, post a link in the comments.
+
+In numerous threads in the [Flickr forums][3] users ranted and staff attempted to set the record straight, but were somewhat hamstrung by legal requirements. Eventually Flickr team members announced they would get in touch with the Yahoo Wii team and now as far as I can tell the photos being pulled in only from the Creative Commons Attribution pool.
+
+But of course the pwnage continues.
+
+And the moral of the story? Yahoo probably has the rights to do whatever they want with your photos regardless of copyright restrictions you've placed on them. Here's the relevant line from [the Yahoo TOS][2]:
+
+>"With respect to photos, graphics, audio or video you submit or make available for inclusion on publicly accessible areas of the Service other than Yahoo! Groups, the license to use, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publicly perform and publicly display such Content on the Service solely for the purpose for which such Content was submitted or made available. This license exists only for as long as you elect to continue to include such Content on the Service and will terminate at the time you remove or Yahoo! removes such Content from the Service."
+
+It's been a while since I got my English degree, but I'm pretty sure the first sentence in that paragraph isn't an actual sentence -- there's no verb. But I can tell you this, one sure way to remove Yahoo's rights is to take down your photos.
+
+It's been a rough day for Flickr, but in this case they did the right thing and so did Yahoo and so for that matter did the users, maybe Time was right after all.
