So many islands, so little time Living in Indonesia and learning to Weblog via Radio (along with many other very random thoughts and stories).
Groove vs. Radio"The larger the group, the more you need Radio (Groove only scales to 32 participants)." [John Robb's Radio Weblog] John makes this statement, but nothing to back it up. I'd love to get more info on this. I'm testing Groove for clients that need the security. This is a major missing piece for Radio. I've mentioned it to John before. Not all knowlege sharing takes place behind a firewall. So, RCS is cool, but some people need to build knowlege sharing networks out in the wild and wooley open internet AND have them be secure. Groove solves this problem. Radio doesn't. I'm trying to update to Groove 2.0 as I type, but that isn't easy via dial-up from Indonesia. Well, actually...Actually, Ben Rotholtz was the PM for all of PageMaker back in those days, I was a "subPM" responsible for the scripting feature and a bunch of example hacks. This was back in the PageMaker 4.x-5 days. Ben moved on some time ago and is now general manager, Products and Systems, Real Networks (or at least he was as of last year). I haven't seen or talked with him in a long time. One of my last memories of Ben was him escorting me from the building on my last day at Aldus. See, my last day (I was moving to Microsoft) was the day that the merger with Adobe was being announced to employees. So, instead of a going away party, I got a box full of my belongings and a handshake. UGH!Oh my, Dave linked to me and I'm still in the middle of trying to debug the categories problem with Lawerence. Well, hope you all like reading all my test posts! As we say in Indonesia, Saya malu sekali.
