Europe uniting against Schmidt's Google print project: "Google announced a library-indexing project last year, but the search giant's Borgesian aspirations seem to have got a few backs up in Europe, which is rallying to an alternative. France's decision to create its online Babel of European literature received critical backing from Germany, Hungary, Italy, Poland and Spain this week." [The Register]

Test-driving Tiger -- Comment()
Yesterday I got a copy of Tiger, which I'm now trying out. The installation was flawless, except that the system had to ask a question about my non-Mac keyboard. After that, no trouble so far. The system responds fast. I have tried out Safari RSS, which is not too bad, but I'll probably not use it much. I tried out Dashboard, and it found easily Finnish versions of wearther and time. Dictionary looks to be promising Dashboard tool. I haven't yet tried out Spotlight. It seems that Tiger is currently indexing the hard drive.
