The Verge Review
The Verge Review
A nice, well written read. Only one quibble:
We expected to spend about half an hour charging; it's only about 90 miles from Gilroy to our final destination in San Francisco, so we didn't need to top it off, which would've taken a couple hours.
Um, no. Full charge on an 85 should take about one hour, not a couple.
@blephneiben - True. I didn't focus in on that because it's WAS years. It isn't anymore though. I thought it funny that he indicated he almost WANTED to run out because it would make for a more interesting story, but didn't.
Ever notice how all these news rag reviewers manufacture a way to have range issues? Well we did not charge to max, or we did not plug in overnight, We could not wait long enough to add the range needed? We thought we could make it, the list goes on and on.
How about I push my ICE to it's limit? How does this sound?
I expected to only spend 5 min. at the gas station as my destination was only 90 miles away so I did not need to top off I just added three gallons. "topping it off would have taken 10-15 minutes". My ICE barely made it, chugging along on fumes with the low fuel lamp on when I arrived.
Must be a FAULTY ICE vehicle!! They should have told me what to expect if I don't add enough fuel, or drive beyond the range of the fuel I have onboard HOW DARE THEY!! I can't imagine anyone feeling comfortable travelling in one of those.
Drama sells!!
I'm curious about the issues with navigation system mentioned in the article. Is it true that the navigation system on Model S works with 3G and not satellite? If yes, would Tesla require Model S owners to pay for 3G data service, someday if not today, to use navigation? I'll hate to see the answer be "yes" since i've paid for the technology package and was hoping that it will work like any other off the shelf navigation systems.
I had a similar story in a diesel VW golf going from germany to luxemburg. Back then diesel in luxemburg was a lot cheaper than in germany, so the driver wanted to fill up in luxemburg on the way to belgium. But he passed the first gas station after the border for some reason (that car had no 17 inch screen, so it is entirely possible to be distracted without one). We had to get off the highway as the tank was almost empty, and look for another gas station. Found a few houses, asked people, but they only spoke french for some reason. One managed to give us directions in english, found a self-service gas station, but it wouldn't take visa or mastercard (probably broken). We went on, started turning off the car on downhill stretches, at that point you could cut the tension in the car with a blunt knife, but then finally found a gas station, by that time driving on fumes of the fumes... although diesel doesn't really have fumes, but anyways. And somehow nobody seemed to be blaming VW for not putting a bigger tank (you could drive like 800km on a tank) or the oil companies for not installing a gas station every mile. If I had published an article about that, I doubt very much that shares of VW would have plunged 3%. The car also had that old DVD-nav system, where you had to enter city and street names with a rotating wheel, and press the wheel after every letter. I have no idea how the driver could operate that while driving any better than just typing on a giant touch screen. In fact, it is a lot more distracting. But there was no outcry back then that those systems require the driver to take his eyes off the road. Guess tactile knobs are king, no matter if you have to look at what you are doing or not.
"They can feel out a volume control here, a temperature control there without having to look down."
Um, yeah, if you have to look down at your steering wheel to see where your hands are, and where the two scroll wheels on the steering wheel are (that can be configured to do just that) you should probably not be driving any car. And waiting for the nanny state to protect you from yourself by taking the browser away (because you couldn't RESIST the temptation of looking, or just couldn't bitch slap your front passenger and tell him to play with his iphone) will not make you more responsible, you WILL find a way to injure yourself and others, one way or another.
Otherwise, the production values of the video were really good.
Nav. systems work by combining GPS with maps. GPS is satellite based the map tiles come over the air via' 3G 4G or from a disc or drive onboard the car etc. and the whole thing is overlaid on the display.
That said, at some point you will need a data plan for your car it would seem. I can see Verizon licking their chops now!
Correction...with the tech package the maps are stored locally and only updated over the air (though I believe the updates are done over the limited telematics data plan that Tesla includes at no charge for things like monitoring the car and delivering updates.
Thanks @riceuguy & @superliner. It's comforting to know that $3750 worth of tech package will give a reliable navigation system and much more. Wonder why did the reviewer have issue with navigation even though they were driving the signature series. Did the signature series not include the tech package?
@superliner - you know, I did exactly that with my ICE recently. I had been running around too busy to get to a gas station. I ended up at my barn, basically on fumes. It was about 6 miles to the nearest gas station. The barn had a bunch of gas cans for lawnmowers and the gator, so I grabbed a can and put some in. I figured I only needed to get 6 miles, so I didn't even put in a full gallon. Well, I drove to the gas station and you can guess what happened. Literally in the (very busy) intersection, the car ran out of gas and had to be pushed through into the gas station.
At least I didn't blog about it and blame BMW :-)
Geek V;
"Uh, no", no. You cannot double ½ charge in ½ hr to get 1 charge in 1 hour. The battery slows down to about level II rates after about 80%, so the last 20% takes about 1½ hrs. at 40A or so. So Max Range would have, indeed, taken about 2 hours.
@Brian H - This page says "300 miles of range per hour of charge": http://www.teslamotors.com/charging#/onthego - and this one lists the highest battery (ideal) range as 300 miles: http://www.teslamotors.com/models/features#/battery
That's how I arrived at a full charge taking an hour. Now, granted, the first statement may be a marketing mistake because everywhere else I see says 150 miles in 30 minutes... And I know with other chargers you are right about the charge tapering off as your approach full. But I really have no idea what a supercharger can do and was sort of taking Tesla at their word.
@GeekEV - the fact that the maximum rate of charge can only be sustained for 0-50% doesn't invalidate the statement.
@jat - So are you saying I am right? Or Brian is? Or neither? I don't have my car yet so I was going purely based on those statements on the pages I referenced... Can you elaborate?
@jat - Wait. Are you saying that Tesla's statement of 300 miles of range per hour is valid because *IT* could sustain that? Even if the car can't? That's misleading marketing speak at it's worst if that's what they meant. I suppose it's a moot point because who's going to sit there any longer than needed to get to the next station?
But I didn't mean to derail this thread, I'm just trying to understand...
I am saying you can charge from 0-50% at a rate of 300mi/hr, which will get you 150mi in 30 minutes. After that, it slows down progressively, to the point it is no faster than a L2 charger at 80% (and above the standard charge level it gets even slower than that).
The link you gave says you can get 150 miles in half an hour, and it says the rate is 300 mi/hr -- both statements are correct, though I would prefer to be more explicit about not being able to sustain that rate.
Yeah, I see what you're saying. It's not unlike saying I'm driving 60mph, even if I'm only doing it for 10 minutes. However, surely you agree (and I think you do) that stating it the way they did is strongly misleading. Now that I see what Brian and you are saying, it makes sense and it doesn't really bother me. But others might not be so understanding. I can only hope that it wasn't done deliberately - I like to think Tesla's better than that.
Anyway, back to the topic at hand, I retract my comment about the author getting the charge times wrong...
You shouldn't need a 3G connection to have map access, at least with the tech package. This has been discussed on other threads but the Nav does not go dark when you're out of signal as I understand it. As for the 3G plan, a base level of 3G comes free with the car to provide software updates and to return all acquired data to the mother ship. A separate 3G contract will be available but not be required since the car will be able to access the net through the wifi hotspot functionality on your cell phone. Undoubtedly Tesla is facilitating our addiction to Slacker and voice command now, so that when the data plan is announced it will be the least painful exercise to simply hit "accept" on the screen to keep the opium flowing.
In Tesla's defense, the standard way of referring to charge rates is miles/hr. But in this case, saying "5 mi/minute, for half an hour" might be clearer! :)
In the case of a 60kWh battery, btw, that would only be 3.5 mi/min., or about 210 mi./hr. Its 50% charge to 105 mi. (ideal) would take half an hour, just like the 150 mi. 50% charge for an 85kWh battery. For a 60 kWh car to add 150 miles of charge would probably require 50 minutes, or even more depending on the starting SoC.
Maybe someone who has used a supercharger can correct me, but I though that the SCs could dump something like 300A at 365V; I think the 150 miles in 30 minutes for an empty battery is conservative. I think the charger can get to more than half full in less than 30 minutes, and even though it ramps down it can, in fact, do 300 miles in an hour. Anyone confirm/deny this with data?
@nickjhowe, I think the superchargers are 90 kW. At full power, that would recover 42.5 kWh in 28 minutes. There is talk of increasing the supercharger rate to 120 kW, however. Of course, most of the time the rate is less than 90 kW.
@GeekEV - the charge rate isn't constant, whether it is the supercharger, L2 charging, or something else. The intended use of the Supercharger, and what they have been saying everywhere, is that you can recover half your range in a 30 minute stop (which does imply you are pretty low on charge -- their # of stops calculator always charges at 10%). Just like all the sales that say "up to half off" or real estate signs "starting at $125k" (which means they have one house at that price and the rest starting at $200k), it is an overall statement not intended to be applied in every situation.
Great video, thanks for the link. Beautiful country, beautiful car. And despite some mis-statements, a balanced positive review.

Zombie Jump, czyli kolejny spin-off Icy Tower 2
Jeszcze nie zdążyliśmy porządnie ograć Temple Jump a dziś pojawiła się kolejna odsłona Icy Tower 2 o podtytule Zombie Jump! Tym razem trafiamy w świat umarlaka Harolda, którego ulubionym przysmakiem nie jest już ser a mózg.
W kwestii gameplay'u nie zmieniło się praktycznie nic - wciąż te same power-upy, sposób grania jest identyczny. Większą ciekawostką są piętra-duchy, które pojawiają się dopiero jak się do nich zbliżymy. Czyżby małe nawiązanie do trapiących kiedyś wielu graczy ghost floors?
Nie wiem jak uważają pozostali, ale poza fajną wariacją oprawy graficznej jest to po prostu Icy Tower 2 w nieco innym, tym razem zombiakowym opakowaniu. Wizja wykonywania tych samych stuntów i mozolnego odblokowywania tych samych boostów i upgrade'ów skutecznie mnie odstrasza od ogrywania Zombie Jump.
Uważam, że lepiej byłoby się skupić nad dodawaniem kolejnych elementów do standardowej wersji IT2 oraz - przede wszystkim - na naprawianie bugów, których nie brakuje.

While pretty much everybody agrees the U.S. tax code is a mess, nobody does anything about it. Oh, politicians talk about doing something, but mainly what they do is make it worse.
There's a reason for this. You. You're the reason.
People, alas, tend to be greedy and selfish and their attitude toward taxation is expressed in the old rhyme: "Don't tax you. Don't tax me. Tax that fellow behind the tree."�
This is as true of liberals as it is of conservatives. We all tend to like those tax provisions that benefit us and hate those that benefit someone else.
We and the organizations we work for hire lobbyists to ensure that our narrow economic interests are served, and they do a terrific job. Give the devil his due - lobbyists are very good at what they do.
And what they do, specifically, is lie, cheat, steal, bribe, "educate," and otherwise persuade legislators to give their clients tax breaks. They descend on the nation's capital like a mighty swarm of locusts. When they're done, the tax code is a ragged collection of holes, but a hundred or so pages longer. And 80 percent of Congress is assured of re-election. It's called democracy.
Just try and cut out a tax break some day, I dare you. I don't care if it's for bee keepers, skateboard manufacturers, buffalo hunters or buggy whip makers. Every industry and interest group has its own personal lobbyist working to bury a stealth tax break in an obscure bill.
Many reformers long since have despaired of breaking the stranglehold of these "special interests" on our government.
I have not. I have a foolproof tax reform plan that will rescue our society from the sleazy grasp of special-interest politics and set us on the path of justice and righteousness. Here's my plan.
Eliminate the corporate income tax. Don't cut it. Get rid of it.
In the first place, it's a tax on success. Corporations that are well-run and make money have to pay it (theoretically, at least). Corporations that are losers don't. That's not the American way. Let the good and bad corporations compete on a level playing field.
In the second place, and more importantly, it's an almost irresistible invitation to cheat or, at the very least, evade taxes through shady practices, like setting up dummy companies in far-away and low-tax places. (I'm looking at you, Apple.)
Corporations wouldn't have to cheat on their taxes under my plan because there'd be no taxes. Tax shelters? Gone. Neither would there be deductible expenses.
Travel expenses, entertainment expenses, advertising expenses, investment expenses, they'd all be simply part of the cost of doing business. No more expensive skyboxes rented by corporations at stadiums - unless the executives thought it was actually worth the money on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
No more "business lunches" at fancy restaurants or country club memberships for executives at company expense. Whatever was spent to make money would be money taken out of profits.
I know what you're going to say: "Where are you going to get the money to run the government?"
From people - people like you, actually. We would all be taxed at a progressive rate high enough to fund the government we need. Capital gains would be taxed as ordinary income, as would everything else.
Our bloated entertainment economy would shrink. Our dishonest, subsidized corporations would learn to stand on their own two legs. And a great many lobbyists and crooked tax lawyers would be forced to find honest employment.
Don't worry about any of this happening. The chances of my plan or anything like it being enacted are less than yours of winning the Powerball lottery jackpot. You're more likely to be struck by a meteor.
People hate taxes, but they love deductions.
Nor do our legislators want lobbyists to disappear. Without lobbyists to give them money, how would they get elected? By finding real solutions to real problems?
That'll be the day.

Picking up directly where the superb Assassin's Creed 2 left off, Brotherhood is a weird sort of semi-sequel. With mostly the same cast, the same technology and the same period setting, it is not quite different enough to be the third episode in the series, yet it is much, much more than a glorified expansion pack. By honing and intelligently adding to the style and gameplay of its Renaissance masterpiece, Ubisoft has created the best Assassin's Creed yet.
For fear of spoilers we won't go too far into the plot, but Brotherhood takes our hero, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, to the Eternal City, Rome, where he once again finds himself in conflict with the Templers, and their public manifestation in the ruthless Borgia family. Meanwhile, in the present day his descendent, Desmond, is on the run from Aspergo, the corporate front for the modern Templers, using the Assassin's rogue Animus machine to plug into his Italian ancestor's memories and - maybe - save the world.
What follows won't be too unfamiliar to fans of the series, as Ezio explores Rome, clambering up famous landmarks, taking on missions and slaying Borgia targets, conspirators and hapless lackeys by their dozens. The basic mix of clambering, free-running, stealth and hand-to-hand combat really hasn't changed all that much. The controls, which make the business of climbing, killing and leaping from turret to chimney to window ledge ridiculously simple, are pretty much unaltered. If you played and loved Assassin's Creed 2, then Brotherhood is going to seem as comfortable and familiar as an old T-Shirt.
That's all great, but we're still not too far from a straight expansion. Has anything changed? Well, the missions are even more streamlined and well-designed than they were in Assassin's Creed 2, meaning that this is one open-world adventure that's incredibly low on down-time, and that there's enough variety in the missions to get and keep you hooked. Ubisoft has even achieved a minor miracle: making the modern day sequences with Desmond interesting, and Brotherhood feels more like two related stories running in tandem rather than one meaty tale and one tedious framing story. Brotherhood even gives you a certain amount of control over where and when you flick between Ezio's and Desmond's stories, which actually makes the game seem a more unified whole.
Plus, after a slightly slow start, Rome reveals itself as a brilliant location, significantly larger than Venice and Florence in Assassin's Creed 2, and surprisingly varied, with its packed urban neighbourhoods, wide open spaces, crumbling Imperial ruins and luxurious palazzi. As before, playing Brotherhood will be an even bigger treat if you've actually been to the Italian capital, and climbing up the Coliseum or infiltrating the Castel Sant'Angelo is as big a thrill here as clambering around on the Campanile or the Doge's palace was last time around.
Once again, the blurring of historical fact with fantasy works brilliantly, and while scholars might tut at the representation of the Borgias, Da Vinci and Machiavelli, the game still skilfully weaves real events and people in with fictional ones, while delivering likeable heroes, hissable villains and a strong supporting cast. History might not record a catfight between Lucrezia Borghia and Caterina Sforza, but Ubisoft knows that this is how you make (a nutty, fictionalised version of) the past come to life. What's more, the Borgia goons, innocent bystanders and crowds are even more believable than they were in Assassin's Creed 2. There's still some repetition of dialogue, but the days of "I'll have your hand for that" now seem long ago.
Most of all, however, Brotherhood delights because there is just so much to do. Beyond the basic missions we still get the item collecting, assassination and thievery bonus missions we saw in Assassin's Creed 2, but on top of them the new game adds a whole range of activities which fit in seamlessly with the experience as a whole. For a start, you can take Rome district by district from the Borgias, which involves slaying their local captain then climbing their tower of power and setting it alight. You don't have to do it, but you'll find it easier to get through open districts than Borgia controlled ones, and getting rid of the local Borgia bigwig will give you leeway to re-open pharmacies, blacksmiths and other operations. Not only can you use these to heal and resupply, but they'll bring in money, functioning much as the town improvements did in Assassin's Creed 2.
What's more, Rome has a particularly nasty secret society - the Brotherhood of Romulus - which is secreting ancient treasures in the temples and catacombs around the city. Each of these lairs is a new platforming challenge, taking Assassin's Creed further into Prince of Persia territory than it has ever gone before. Again, you don't have to do every one, but the more you do, the more equipment and benefits you'll gain.
And finally, Brotherhood does introduce one major new element: the Assassin's Guild. It turns out that by intervening in fights between Borgia thugs and stout-hearted rebels, Ezio can recruit them into the brotherhood of Assassins. Your new recruits can then be called upon to take down targets for Ezio at a tap of a button, or if Ezio visits his local pigeon coop, they can also be sent off on missions. Here, your assassins are despatched to various European locations, taking on various espionage, defence and hitman missions, thus earning experience for themselves and money for the brotherhood. The experience can be used to develop their skills, adding a simple element of strategy to the action.
All of this can be overwhelming, but Brotherhood takes its own time to remind you of the existing game mechanics and drip feed in the new ones, and it has to be said that it's a very expansive game that will take you days to complete. As if the various bonus objectives weren't enough, Ubisoft has also boosted the replay value with optional goals that ask you to complete a mission without being discovered or wounded, or dispatch an enemy in a specific way. As we said, this isn't some half-arsed expansion.
The icing on the cake is the multiplayer mode, with Templar's undergoing Animus training as assassins, working alone or in teams to hunt down specific targets. The more targets you kill, and the more stealthily and stylishly you do it, the more experience points you get, and these can be spent on perks to improve your chances. It's a unique and interesting cat-and-mouse experience, and a million miles away from the lazy deathmatch game we might have expected. If you're growing tired of military shooters it comes highly recommended.
Being picky, we'd say that the main storyline isn't quite as compelling as Assassin Creed 2's, and that some of that game's sense of wonder has been lost with familiarity. As an overall package, however, Brotherhood is actually the better game, with its tighter mission design, magnificent setting and a fantastic array of things to do. Amazingly, what we had down as a slightly unnecessary, glorified expansion turns out to be one of the must-have games of the winter.

AmbiWeb necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 26 diseños de 13 diseñadores freelance.
Fachgruppe Geld
AmbiWeb GmbH is a german company and was founded in 2005. AmbiWeb runs a number of big german websites.
The website is a financial site. It will cover all sorts of financial topics e.g. insurance, real estate, banking. The visitors we are targeting are interested in all kind of financial products. The site will have a lot of content (articles).
Key objectives of the website are:
- get valid contact informations (adress-data).
- provide quick and intuitive navigation, subsites to get contact informations are most important.
- communicate "professional" and "credible".
We require a website design for an web based business. A fully separated/layered .PSD should be delivered. Tidy up your layers and groups in the psd file and properly name all of the elements in english. You could use english texts, there is no need for german. No mark up is required.
Make sure the layout looks professional and credible
Use common system fonts for headings and menu items so all elements can be text-based when the mark up is written.
The design concept should include all elements we may need in other pages. At least:
- 1-2 teaser-boxes which allows the user to navigate to a "request-information-page" that contains an adress-form for a specific product.
- 2-3 Header styles (h1,h2,h3)
- Standard paragraph and emphasis paragraph
- A primary and secondary bullet point style
- A primary and secondary hyperlink style
- Pagination (next, last, page nums etc..)
- a tag / category listing below texts
- a breadcrumb
- Etc..
Slim Header / Logo (e.g. 65px height), most of the content should be visible without scrolling
Fixed width: 960px
Include a searchbox (probably in the header)
You can look at our category-structure and some of the articles and at a mockup:
Username: test
Password: test
Our main Categories are:
"Geld und Finanzen", "Versicherungen und Vorsorge", "Immobilien und Grundbesitz"
Additional stuff based on submitted designs:
The site isn't meant to have a style like a blog. It's mainly output. We're gonna have 4 types of important pages later: 1. Category / Article Listings, 2. Articles with Teasers for products (e.g. 2 insurance products), 3. Product listings, 4. Information request form (shown after a product-teaser was clicked). We don't need Informations about the writer, the publishing-date and we won't allow any comments etc.. We don't need a "User-Login"-Box. Space in the navigation could be filled with Teasers. We have a lot of categories so it would be a good idea to show only the active part of the category-tree. Try to use a single font for all parts of the page.

February 27, 2009
We all experience moments of excruciating embarrassment. Sometimes, comments so mortifying fall out of our mouths that there is no way to save face. We pray that our tongue would suddenly grow a rewind button, or for Harry Potter''s "Cloak of Invisibility," or that anyone listening has suddenly been struck deaf. None of these things are very likely. Stupid comments are so common there is even a shorthand term for it, "Open mouth, insert foot."
Most of us make gaffs in social situations. Our friends can be quite forgiving, understanding what we really meant. Or, perhaps, turning the remarks into one of those you-had-to-be-there sort of funny stories. Imagine how horrifying to do this on a national stage. Attorney General Eric Holder must have a pretty good idea of how that feels.
In a speech for African-American history month he called us a "nation of cowards," because of a lack of dialogue on the subject of race. This comment hurt, especially, I imagine, in Mississippi, with our very complicated racial history.
It must be a lofty feeling to occupy such an important position. He is male-model handsome, with a bushy mustache that only he and Wilford Brimley can carry off. (Even Tom Selleck and Alex Trebeck shaved those off more than 20 years ago.) We have gotten past the idea that "pretty" equals "dumb." But, once in a while, those old clichés have a ring of truth.
In the speech he says," We work with one another, lunch together ... socialize with one another fairly well ... " But, "... average Americans simply do not talk with each other about race."
Why should we? There are members of my family that we "simply do not talk about." That doesn''t mean we do not accept them and love them. Certainly, we share lunch, or "socialize." It''s just that there is no need to rehash ancient history.
Mississippi, of all the states, gets the worst ink about racism. I wish everyone in the rest of the country could see it as I did. As a new resident to Columbus, my husband and I were amazed at the lack of friction between the races. No thanks to the national press.
Everyone, it seems, in "The Friendly City" gets along well. The most impressive thing was the courtesy of the teens. Black or white, they say "Yes, ma''am" and "Yes, sir." They are not frightening to us, as their New Orleans counterparts were.
We have black leaders on every level of government. We are side-by-side in school, in church, in industry. What is there to talk about?
A nation of cowards? I believe that Americans, particularly Mississippi-Americans are living a life of heroism and dignity. Integration was accepted so very long ago that now even the term sounds archaic.
Our state is a grand dame with a shady past. (Doesn''t every interesting adult have one?) However, our present is bright. We, and the rest of the nation, are looking forward to a future with our new First Family, and our color-blind voting record.
Eric Holder urges all of us, "... to talk with friends and co-workers on the other side of the divide about racial matters."
I''ve got a better idea. Let''s talk about art, and music, or your children''s softball games. Race is old-hat boring. Let''s drink coffee, or wine. Let''s gossip on my front porch. But, please, let''s not talk about race.
You are a handsome man, Eric Holder (love the retro mustache!). However, here in Mississippi, we are looking toward the future. If you like, I will send you a bottle of great local barbecue sauce to make that foot in your mouth more palatable.

At the urging of one of my co-presenters, I'm posting the script I used for my CIL presentation last week. A few things to note:
- I generally don't use slides unless I absolutely have to. I dislike Powerpoint and am alright with Prezi, but I have a very non-scientific theory called the "Bermuda Triangle of Modern Audiences". Between staring at you, the slides, and their personal devices, it makes attention spans disappear into thin air. I'd rather have just myself at the visual so I work to make up for it.
- Yes, I do write in asides, jokes, and other little seemingly 'off the cuff' remarks. Sometimes I use them, sometimes I don't, and sometimes I add things in when I speak. The transcript of the recording will not exactly match the script, but it's close enough.
- This particular talk had been rolling over in my brain for months. I went through a bunch of different starts, different tones, and different messages that I wanted to share. I ended up using the first one I created and, like magic, the words finally flowed for me. Well, sort of. I was pretty insane with rage by the time I finished the script due to the closing deadline as well the difficulty of the presentation birthing process. I read through it and it seemed fine. Thanks to Sarah for reading over it to tell me I was not insane and Julie for letting me practice present it to her. Both of you gave me the confidence to stand up there and let loose.
For those interested, here is the video recording of the presentation with Michael, Sarah, and myself. I have a hard time watching myself, but I felt it went very well. It misses my first few lines so you can read them below in the script.
It took me a few weeks to try to find the right words in order to summarize my perspective on eBooks, but in a sudden late insight it finally yielded to me. And it sounds something like this:
Everything is amazing and no one is happy.
Doesn't that capture the current state of affairs perfectly? I thought so. (I lifted that line from a Louis CK interview on Conan O'Brien. It's on YouTube and I highly suggest checking it out.)
Everything *is* amazing. Look at what the computing and communication revolutions have created in the last two decades. We can beam text and pictures across the world in a matter of moments. There are online platforms in which average citizens have come together in ways that can change their worlds, in political revolutions like the Arab Spring and the unvolunteered governmental transparency of Wikileaks. Even as I am talking to you right here and right now in Washington DC, my words are being shared (possibly) across Twitter in real time with people around the country and around the globe. In the span of a few generations, we have moved from telephones with party lines and radio relays to hand-held devices that allow us to contact anyone from nearly anywhere while providing a cornucopia of information at our fingertips. Let's pause for a moment to reflect on the advances in computing and communication technology that have changed within your lifetime AND to which we now take for granted.
Everything *is* amazing.
And yet, no one is happy when it comes to eBooks. What could possibly be wrong with a product that you don't have to spend money on to print, gas and transportation for shipping, is the current object of desire for serious bibliophiles and the institutions that serve that demographic, and works on handheld devices that everyone from 4 to 104 can use with arguably relative ease?
Apparently, EVERYTHING.
Let's start with librarians since, well, that's the group I know the best in this equation. We (the royal we) want ebooks but we can't or won't get them. I say "can't" because the majority of the remaining major publishers do not allow for library lending of their ebooks. Full stop. There's not much of a supply and demand to the situation when the supply is being withheld.
I also say "won't" not simply because either we are too short staffed and underbudgeted (which are pretty legitimate reasons), but I feel there is a high lazy factor at play here. There is an unfortunate prevailing professional tendency to seek a solution that requires the least amount of work and energy in order to implement; I feel that there is an overwhelming and far too common desire to simply accept solutions and services that work right out of the box. We like to throw money at problems. When that doesn't work, we try to acquire larger stacks of money because that's easier than practicing our aim or changing the size of the target.
This must be why there is great confusion as to why money won't solve the eBook dilemma for libraries. We have it, they want it, so what's the problem here, right?
It's not that publishers don't want library money; they certainly are willing to take it through multiple channels and things such as library editions and other upsales of their wares. No, that's not the issue here.
Publishers just don't trust our customer base.
While librarians in theory work to uphold the principles of copyright and not engaging in unauthorized copying (otherwise known by the misnomer of 'pirating'), we can't extend a guarantee of such upstanding behavior for our community. When that computer readable DVD or CD goes out our doors, we can't verify that the patron won't copy it or rip it into iTunes or otherwise post it online. The publishers hold firm in their belief that, for the price of a library card, the average consumer can gorge themselves on digital content without laying a dime on the retail counter.
Scary, right?
Hell, this fear extends into the consumer realm with publishers and authors controlling the ability as to whether an eBook can be lent by a retail customer to another person. Even then, the terms call for a short borrowing period (2 weeks at most) as well as limited ability (one time only, if I recall correctly). Since the consumer only licenses the content, that's not an overreach but a judicious management of intellectual property… right?
So, what is the common thread here between libraries and the consumer? To me, it looks like the "problem" is sharing.
You know, sharing, right? That thing that is on every status update on Twitter and Facebook and other social media outlets and the widget at the bottom of every online news article and blog post and probably the reason why they created a Forwarding option for email and that marketing through the ages has been encouraging people to do by word of mouth ("tell your friends!") and not only that it is something practiced as a cultural norm regarding hospitality and continues to exist as an oral tradition (the precursor to print, mind you) and if we concentrate really really hard it is something that probably went ALL THE WAY back to our ancestors sitting around a community fire (or for some of you, the Garden of Eden) sharing ideas, stories, myths, legends, thoughts, and other intellectual and cultural lineages?
Yeah, that's the sharing I hear about, the truly "dark" underside of the development that comes with being a complex social creature. This is "the horror" that comes from breeding technology and culture together. Ebooks are the resulting child of this union, endowed with all the the traits of this constantly emerging digital world… along with the expectations of the long established and deeply rooted cultural object.
Is that what all this fanfare and turmoil and handwringing and meetings and blog posts and trade articles and "friction" and revenue streams and very serious people making very serious faces *really* about?
And to imagine that I thought there was an actual problem at the heart of the issue of eBooks.
Because here is the undeniable truth of this issue: sharing wins.
Sharing wins.
Sharing will always win.
First of all, it has a major cultural and social headstart of ten's of thousands of years. Our delightfully intricate monkey brains are built for it. Our organizations of knowledge are constructed with that in mind. And our current aforementioned increasing complex social platforms are built towards it.
Second, sharing is already happening. It happens when people thwart those lending limitations by registering multiple Kindles or Nooks on one account so they can pass around books they buy with impunity. It happens when websites pop up to facilitate ebook loans between complete strangers. People aren't waiting for libraries to find a solution to ebook lending, they are making their own. And not just hopping onto bit torrents to do it.
Third, people will fight on this principle alone. What a book has given them in terms of feelings, insights, experience, knowledge, and changed their world is something they will want their friends and families to share in as well. The notions of copyright and intellectual property are quaint and adorable, but really, no one will have an epitaph on their headstone that reads, "He lived a fulfilling life within the strict confines of Title 17". The inclination to share stories, thoughts, ideas, and concepts is more philosophically compelling than the rules around them.
Good day, sir.
So, what can be done?
Invest in the rights of the reader. Grant people a claim on the eBooks that they purchase. Give them a vested interest. Build a community around it. Show the reader that you value them by giving up rights to them. Don't hold them at arm's length. Bring them in to you!
People want to share. Enable it. Hell, monetize it with rewards for lenders who end up generating sales. Every book made available to the hands of a reader is taking a space that would otherwise be filled with a competitor's book or competing interest. And two weeks? Get rid of time limits. Why put a shot clock on reading? Who cares if a book is lent and doesn't come back for six months? (Aside from librarians, that is.) And one time lends? Why would you make people choose who they can lend a book to only once? I'm sure that has never led to an argument between family or friends. That's inane, it's strangely cruel, and it's miserly.
To bring all these thoughts and words home, I give you my bottom line:
If you treat a book like a book, people will notice and act accordingly. If you treat a book like a computer file, people will rise to those expectations. No aspiring writer will answer the call to write the next Great American Computer File. While I concede that eBooks possess the vulnerabilities of a digital format, I urge all parties (librarians, authors, publishers) to embrace, nurture, and carry forward the cultural associations of the book into the digital realm. The eBook is greater than the sum of its contents and containers.
Act like it and the world will follow.
Thank you.

As plenty of G.M. vacancies emerge on the first day after the 2012 regular season, one of the leading candidates has removed his hat from the ring.
The Ravens have announced that "a number of teams" have contacted the Ravens seeking permission to interview assistant G.M. Eric DeCosta. They can now stop.
"I love being a part of the Ravens and plan to stay here and help them win championships," DeCosta said in a statement issued by the Ravens. "I have no intentions of leaving this team."
He has no intentions of leaving in part because he has no way to leave. Last year, DeCosta received G.M. money in exchange for agreeing to a contract that keeps him from departing.
So while it looks good now that DeCosta is choosing to stay with a team that suddenly has more flaws that Keith Richards' complexion, DeCosta and the Ravens said their vows a year ago.

Oh no, that is one hell of a story, clearly Ernie has completely irrelevant by the end, with that poo catastrophe!! He looks pretty pleased with himself, mind you, aren't ALL boys just so much more delightful after having a bowel movement (father's included??!!) I'm just glad the nurse didn't think you were a mad druggie desperate for something from all the drawers you were opening & rifling through!! Love PosieReplyDelete
oh my goodness...I am giggling out loud here! :)ReplyDelete
HA HA!! I can imagine the mortification, but man, that's funny. :-)ReplyDelete
Oh man I have so been there... well not actually there, it was in an airplane bathroom and we hit turbulence... Needless to say my son thought it was hilarious and I was mortified... it was everywhere and those bathrooms are teeny tiny... Thanks for the chuckle, and the stroll down nightmare lane :)ReplyDelete
Oh my goodness, I'm so pleased this kinda thing happens to others too! I hate having to take my boys to the doctors, the last time Ethan pulled the plug on her computer, OMG!ReplyDelete
Awesome! I too had a poopy moment yesterday, but it was thankfully at home and only involved poop all over the crib and my daughter's hands. Yours was definitely worse and I can't believe you had it cleaned up so quickly!ReplyDelete
Wow, what an unbelievable story. You poor thing. It's a good thing moms get so adept at cleaning up quickly. Nice save!!ReplyDelete
Hilarious, for the rest of us anyway, it must have been nerve racking to say the least. Was he able to help with your eye?ReplyDelete
OMG! I have had days like this too. Of course it is always more funny when it is not you it is happening too! I'm sure it makes you want to start potty training!ReplyDelete
When I went for my 6-week check up after having my first son, I fed him before we went and planned that he would be sleeping during the appointment. We had to wait over an hour, and then by the time to doctor came into the room to check out my whoo-ha (as you so nicely put it- LOL) he was done with his cat nap and ready to eat again. Oh NO! He started crying and crying, and I started leaking milk. OMG! I had FORGOTTEN those bra pad things - milk was soaking through my shirt. All of a sudden I started sweating with nervousness and then before I knew it crying! Thank goodness the doctor suggested she come back in a few minutes to let me feed the now screaming child of mine. After we got to the car I cried again with my now sweat and milk soaked shirt. Looking back it was just a comedy and I can't wait to tell my son when he grows up!
Ahahahahah Hilarious! I'm sorry my laughter is at your expense ;PReplyDelete
I tried not to laugh too hard in fear of bad karma... but oh my goodness this was hillarious! Can't wait to have kids ...ReplyDelete
What did the doc say a/b Ernie? I get sty's a lot....I have big time allergies and my eyes drive me crazy. Just put a warm compress on it and hopefully you can get the stuff out of it. If not, hopefully doc game you some e-mycin for the eye! :)ReplyDelete

A lot goes in to determining how to develop a product, from deciding which features to include to figuring out the right way to market it.
But the most important first step is to decide what the "scope" of the project is, former President of Windows Division at Microsoft Steven Sinofsky writes on his blog Learning by Shipping.
Here's how to do it:
You first need to determine if it's an entirely new product, an evolution of an existing product, a complete overhaul of an existing product, or one that works alongside another product. That's because "scoping a product is an engineering choice, not simply a way to position the product as it is introduced."
- If it's an entirely new product, you can express to your team the smallest set of features and investments. But you need to take into account if the product is entirely new to your company or new to the entire industry.
- If you're improving an existing product, you need to take into account how compatible it will be with the current product, in terms of user experience, data, platform, and features.
- When trying to disrupt a pre-existing product, be clear about exactly which part of the project you're changing.
- If it's a side-by-side product, you must determine how the new product will work in conjunction with the pre-existing product.
- Deciding to revisit the scope of the project mid-way through. For example, changing from disrupting the product to evolving the product will likely put your team off schedule.
- Attempting to do "too much" than you can feasibly get done with the amount of time and resources at hand.
- While a minimum viable product is good for developing new ideas, you need to make sure you don't "scope the product to do too little."
- Attempting to solve the wrong problem.
Another thing to take into account is the mechanical and strategic constraints to the product, Sinofsky writes. "One way to think of these constraints is as the key variables for project scoping—you rightsize a project by choosing values for these variables up front:"
- How many people will be working on the project?
- How long will the project take to complete?
- What kind of tools and code will be necessary?
- What huge bet is the project taking?
- Who will be using the product?
- What's the long term plan and goal for the project?

In the Region of Marche, museums, libraries and archives centres will celebrate the anniversary of the Italian Unification focusing on protagonists, pathways, methods and forms of the region's cultural institutions in the past 150 years.
The Region of Tuscany is launching the Custodians of the Ark project asking museums to exhibit a number of private collections aimed at constructing an ideal ark of memories. It is also a new way of encouraging the ethics of collecting as a civil virtue.
In the town of Cesena (Emilia-Romagna) the ancient Biblioteca Malatestiana, included in the UNESCO Memory of the World Project, will join forces with the literary house museum dedicated to Renato Serra to bring documents to the public's attention as the most precious tools for the country's historical and cultural memory.
