Berlind's Media Transparency Channel
If you're looking for my podcasts, please read What to do if you're looking for my series of podcasts on IT Matters. Otherwise, read on.

This blog is now a part of my experiment in media transparency. The premise is that if the media can broadcast polished edited content through one channel like ZDNet, then why can't it also broadcast a parallel channel that's full of the raw materials (thus, this "channel"). For a much more detailed explanation, be sure to check out the following:In case you're interested, maintaining a simplistic transparency channel like this one has so far involved a significant amount of heavy lifting. The core technology may exist, but it's my opinion that a decent UI for publishing a transparency channel does not. So, one outgrowth of this experiment might be a complete specification for such a system -- Something I call JOTS.

After noticing that my wireless Good G100 wasn't getting copies of my e-mail, I found out that Good's datacenter was down yesterday morning (Jan 24 2005). Good and RIM have done their fair share of trash talkin' each other in the past (most of it off the record). So, I thought I'd ping each of them for comment now that the lights went out at Good. I have two e-mail threads, one from Good's PR and the other from RIM's.  Here's the resulting blog entry.  As you can see, the comments that I received were 100 percent cut and paste.

In response to a blog entry that I wrote about Intel's Vanderpool and Silvervale virtualization technologies, Jessica Beyers, who does public relations for VMWare has pitched me on a possible update on the company and its products. The company probably wants to respond to this comment that I made:

"What all this means for companies that have staked their future on software-based virtualization like VMWare (now a division of EMC) remains to be seen. Perhaps people will end up using solutions from VMWare to further divide each hardware-based partition in to multiple software-based partitions thereby turning individual systems into grid super-nodes, or better yet, self-contained grids."

Here's a copy of the original pitch.
