Google Wave Will Require Chrome Frame in IE

by Joseph Jaramillo

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

I missed this gem from Tuesday:

In the past, the Google Wave team has spent countless hours solely on improving the experience of running Google Wave in Internet Explorer. We could continue in this fashion, but using Google Chrome Frame instead lets us invest all that engineering time in more features for all our users, without leaving Internet Explorer users behind.

Sounds good to me!

Why did Apple drop ZFS?

by Joseph Jaramillo

Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

Good stuff:

“The ZFS team has produced a game-changing file system/volume manager. The chance to get it into the hands of 10s of millions of Mac users – and to influence Redmond’s file system strategy – seem to this outsider an opportunity of a lifetime.

If the ZFS engineering team opposed this – and I’d love to hear their take – I encourage them to reconsider. Marketers often ask the question ‘would you prefer 100% of nothing or 40% of something huge?’”

Why Calling P2P Filesharing “Piracy” is Wrong

Real piracy involves thugs, guns, and death. The unauthorized redistribution of copyrighted works is no such thing.

Bootlegging is more accurate.

You Go, Sprint!

by Joseph Jaramillo

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

This is without a doubt the best commercial I’ve seen this year. Great job to Sprint for landing the exclusive with the Pre, which is featured at the end.

The ad was brought to my attention by my colleague Devin Schvaneveldt on Twitter. I bookmarked it when I saw the tweet, but didn’t actually see it until Zeke walked into my office and said, “You need to see this commercial.”
