HP has long been a serious player in consumer and office color printing. With their recent acquisition of Indigo they have also taken aim at the professional color print market. This roll-out pits HP squarely against professional photo processors. Can the professional print market be far behind? HP completely overhauls printer biz.

I wonder how these will work for a k-log community, where controlled, hierarchical access is required to protect certain company property? Stuff to watch. Semantic Search Engine. " Semant-O-Matic may be just the thing. Its author, Maciej Ceglowski, calls it a Blog semantic search engine." [ Scripting News ] We're going to need a higher level of search engine than just Google for blogs because the semantics are so complicated. I know on my own site it's difficult to find that needle in a haystack, even with ht:dig (which I know isn't ideal, but is better than limited searching from free, third-party services).

One area not expected to change much, however, is the way print is sold. A hefty majority of printers polled (86.1%) said that e-commerce will not replace face-to-face selling as the primary method of selling printing in 2020. [WhatTheyThink.com]

The distinction between file sharing and shared filesIn a collaborative environment there are two broad categories of files -- those that are created and maintained by one but need to be viewed by many; and those that are maintained by many. In the first instance file sharing allows anyone in a gruop to access a file on my system and retrieve the current verison (a contact list, flow chart, etc.) In the second instance a shared file is necessary, something like QuickTopic that allows multiple users to actually modify the file iteself.
