News You Can Bruise for 2009 January 15 (entry 1)

(2) Thu Jan 15 2009 19:45 QCon Talk -- Revealed!: I've given up on the QCon people ever putting up the sweaty video of my talk, Justice Will Take Us Millions Of Intricate Moves. And I had this printout of the text of the talk that I'd made all these corrections to in pen, which I wanted to get rid of. So I made the changes to the electronic version, wrote a script that synced my slides to the text--effectively mashing my talk up with itself--and put the sucker online. Enjoy it. Act One is suitable for semitechnical readers; it's the latest incarnation of my "short history of the Internet" that Danny likes to rave about. And the conclusion sums up a lot of my general philosophy. In between is a bunch of technical detail! WOOOO!

You must have been getting rid of papers today.

Thanks for this. I noticed a lot of things I'd known or used and forgotten about (AARPnet, BBS boards, FTP), and I also learned a lot of new stuff. Thanks again!
