This is where you say something clever
We’re off today for an Alaska cruise with my parents for a week of relaxation. While traveling with a couple thousand of people on a floating town wouldn’t probably have been my first choice for a way to see Alaska for the first time, it’s a great way to go when you have a group ranging in age from 9 to 85. Back after Labor Day.

APC: What software do you use everyday? Your browser, desktop (if any), email client and so on?
LT: Well, ignoring the actual development stuff (make, compiler, editor etc), it ends up being mostly just xterms and “alpine” (the newer version of the venerable old “pine” email reader. Strictly text-based, thank you very much).
And yes, a browser is mostly open in the background. There’s a few technical discussion forums I’m active on when I have nothing better to do (or when I do have better things to do but get frustrated with them 
, and then the normal “random” sites (boing boing etc).
The news that both Microsoft and Sony Ericsson have joined the CalConnect calendaring consortium is good news indeed!
During the past couple of years of work on interoperable calendaring has been making headway within CalConnect, Microsoft has been the elephant in the room – Exchange and Outlook have huge market share and any meaningful attempt at calendaring interoperability has to claim some level of working with Microsoft’s products. So having the folks from Redmond in the room with the rest of the CalConnect membership will be a welcome addition to the discussions.
The Sony Ericsson membership is meaningful as calendaring on mobile devices continues to become more important. Sony Ericsson joins Symbian in the consortium as major voices of the mobile industry.
I’ll be attending the CalConnect Roundtable at MIT next month, along with a workshop CalConnect is sponsoring on the vCard standard and interoperable address book/ contact management.

Jeff Huber – VP of Engineering, Google.
Notes that Google culture is modeled after the university experience.
Jeff Walz – University Relations
Talent Development – Google has about 1200 internships, 700 of which are sw engineers. They also support the Summer of Code
Academic Research – Research awards program – 100+ projects supported on campus. Support 1 or two grad students for a year or two.
Visiting Faculty at google – faculty work on project with Google sponsor for 6 months or a year.
Services – Google Search, Google Translate: research.google.com/university
Focused programs.
Summer of code – “flip bits not burgers” during summer holidays. Developing open source software in companies.
Talent Development CS4HS – CS for High School teachers – Ed Lazowska did it at UW.
Maggie Johnson (maggiej@google.com) – Code for Educators
Yearly faculty summit takes place at Google. New theme emerged last year as they talked to them – concerns about declining enrollments in CS programs. If you look at what’s being taught in many of the CS undergrad courses, it’s 5-10 years out of date. Google engineers decided to focus in on some current areas to provide course content to faculty to help update curriculum. Designed and developed “seed” tutorials ant content in: AJAX programming, parallel programming, distributed systems, and web security. Ajax is good for intro programs – high impact, quick feedback. There’s a huge hole in web development courses which don’t focus on security. They engaged faculty at various universities to use the materials and develop new courses in these areas. Implemented a repository at code.google.com/edu where the stuff lives. University of Washington is the first to provide content to the site (Aaaron Kimball’s course on cluster computing).
Ben Bunnell – Google Book Search
27 library partners – not all in the US – adding more all the time. Also getting books from lots of publishers.
About 20% of books ever published are in the public domain. About 5% of books ever published are currently in print. About 75% have unclear copyright status. Google Books offers full view and download of the public domain books. For currently in print books sample pages are viewable, based on contracts with the copyright holders. For the middle 75% you can search the full text, but only see a “snippet”, a couple of sentences on either side of your search term, which is likely to be fair use. There are links to OCLC worldcat so you can find a library close to you with the book.
Marc Shedroff, Obadiah Greenberg – YouTube content acquisition team
Education on YouTube. YouTube is the primary hosted video platform at Google. Google Video is moving towards a video search platform.
Branded YouTube pages with channel subscription, community and sharing, embedded video, etc. Duke, Notre Dame, Boston University have channels. Also the University Channel.
They’re happy to work with universityes on this stuff. Monetization is at your option.
Jeff Keltner – Google Apps Education edition.
They’re now allowing ads to be removed for staff as well as students (that’s new today).
They offer 24×7 support for education domain admins.
The Premier edition is $50/user/year with 10GB quotas.
They’ve added multi-people and resource scheduling to Google Cal in the Education edition – it’s there now in Google Apps for your domain.
Google Gears is the method they’ll use for offline access to the apps.
Wendy Woodward – Northwestern University
Student government requested Google Apps – they had a lot of problems with the infrastructure they provide for students. Use of alumni forwarding service was declining. Using a customized google start page for their law school student portal. They’re doing student group accounts in the google space too. Took them 4-5 weeks to launch Google. They worked with a company called SADA systems to build the self-service functionality (pw changes, nickname creation, account deletion). Automated university directory and student system synchronization. Students can keep, purge, or delete as they leave. FERPA protected students remain protected (student name not in the account name). Alumni relations does support for alums. Majority of students opt in – med school not on board yet. Business School not in either as they just implemented Exchange. Integrating single-sign-on by October. They’re investigating future deployment to fac/staff.
Arizona State – Personal Start Page replaced their uPortal project after they spent millions on it.
50k students moved in the first few weeks, after they put a Move button on their web mail client. They incurred no support.
Google sets?
Working on IMAP, starting to look into CalDAV.
just did a big accessibility review of the apps, and are looking at what to do to improve. There’s an XHTML interface to gmail and calendar which work well with screen readers.
2 GB quota is just on mail – no current quota on docs & spreadsheets.
you can whitelist IP addresses for spam filter exemption.
planning a major revamp of Pages, which will incorporate Jotspot technology.
We’re off to Idaho for a week of vacation. Mo’s going on a Salmon River rafting trip with some other family members, and Michele and I are going to do some biking around Wallace, which, as everyone knows, is the Center of the Universe.
Hopefully our plans won’t be interrupted by the forest fires.
Back late next week.
As someone who regularly watches Mariners baseball games on TV (nice win over the Red Sox last night), I am alternately bemused and outraged by the statement near the end of each game that any
accounts and descriptions of this game may not be disseminated without express written consent of Major League Baseball
That is such a blatant and illegal misinterpretation of any intellectual property law as to be completely ridiculous – “I’d tell you about last night’s game, but I have to get permission from MLB first”.
Now at last, somebody’s doing something about it:
The legitimacy of that broad claim may be determined by the Federal Trade Commission after the Computer & Communications Industry Association filed a lengthy complaint with the FTC this morning. The CCIA is a trade group with members such as Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, RedHat, and others that promotes “open markets, open systems, and full, fair, and open competition.” Those companies believe that the overly broad copyright claims “cast a pall” over the tech industry.

The CCIA’s complaint fingers the NFL, Major League Baseball, NBC Universal, Morgan Creek, DreamWorks, Harcourt Inc., and Penguin Group (USA) for deceptive trade practices, accusing them of systematically mispresenting the rights of consumers to use copyrighted material. “These warnings that we have been seeing for decades are false,” CCIA spokesperson Jake Ward told Ars Technica in a Monday interview. “They are a misrepresentation of the law and a violation of consumers’ rights.”

The CCIA’s complaint fingers the NFL, Major League Baseball, NBC Universal, Morgan Creek, DreamWorks, Harcourt Inc., and Penguin Group (USA) for deceptive trade practices, accusing them of systematically mispresenting the rights of consumers to use copyrighted material. “These warnings that we have been seeing for decades are false,” CCIA spokesperson Jake Ward told Ars Technica in a Monday interview. “They are a misrepresentation of the law and a violation of consumers’ rights.”
It’s about time.
