Clay Shirky on O'Reilly.  He finally "gets" the link between Web Services and P2P.  Excellent.  Nice to have you on board Clay!  >>>So given that the peer-to-peer world has been historically bad at standards, for a variety of historical reasons, it looks to me like the standards for peer communication are actually going to come out of Web Services. And they're going to be adapted to a world where client/server is the description of a transaction but not a topology.<<<  [John Robb's Radio Weblog]

Things Overheard at God's Tech Support..

"There is an upgrade path from the Old to the New Testament, but it's difficult and unsupported."

"We were only able to get the first seven Commandments on the stone tablets. The last three will be in Commandments XP."

"You'll need more RAM to run all four horseman concurrently."

"I.S. says it will rain for exactly 20 days."

"The voice of God is a standardized protocol, but each prophet implements it differently."

"Yes, the documentation is poorly organized, contradictory and written by committee. It's still better than UNIX man pages."

"The Apocrypha? I'm sorry sir. We don't support third party additions."

"Yes we do offer a lifetime guarantee. As long as you registered yourself with us via baptism, you're covered. Yes, even then. Yes, we know it's quite a good deal. Why thank you, we like to think it's the best deal around."

Read the rest of this joke.
