I didn’t understand the term ‘warblogging’ until I started clicking around the blogging ecosystem. I didn’t know they were out there, and I wish I hadn’t found them. Ick.

While the processor’s design is still under wraps, the companies say Cell’s capabilities will allow it to deliver one trillion calculations per second (teraflop) or more of floating-point calculations. It will have the ability to do north of 1 trillion mathematical calculations per second, roughly 100 times more than a single Pentium 4 chip running at 2.5GHz
The ‘Cell’ will most likely be the chip behind Sony’s Playstation 3, and might also creep into servers from IBM and set top boxes from Toshiba. There are a lot of generic technical specs in the article that sounds pretty cool as long as everything pans out.

Let’s change Java again! Here’s an article running on O’Reillynet. I agree that Java is aging, but I can remember how frustrated I was starting to learn Java 1.1/AWT just to have to learn everything over again 6 months later with 1.2/Swing.

You know, the one who calls himself Mark in the Dark or Dangerous Dick and breaks into the “50-minute music hour” to tell you about the county fair and the Red Cross blood drive?
Odds are he’s not around, so don’t even think about calling the request line. The chances are pretty good that the man behind the voice lives in another time zone, appears on stations in four states, and picks up local color by reading newspapers online. He may even have taped his show last month then gone on vacation to some exotic locale he’s never visited. Like, say, your town.
But Clear Channel shows no signs of losing its devotion to voice tracking. With the help of technology, the company is creating mini-chains of stations that share the same nicknames, logos, formats and personalities. Twenty-five Clear Channel rock stations are named “Mix” — from Mix 102.9 in Dallas to Mix 102.7 in Sandusky, Ohio — and 46 rock stations called KISS litter the country from Casper, Wyoming to Savannah, Georgia.

MattSchwack: hehe yeah. I almost freaked out this morning cause I was catching up on news, and it was like seeing yourself on the 11 o’clock news, except not. It was weird. I partied. -

Excellent RSS -> email bridge in perl. simple. elegant. I might just put this to use while I’m on vacation so I can keep up without having to check my aggregator every hour…

OmniOutliner: It looks like The Omni Group is at it again. This one is for mac users only though. Apparently they’re also working on OPML support.

Overlooked GPL database: SAP DB. I’ve skimmed the site and the software looks pretty impressive. It looks like there are some fairly advanced administration interfaces available for it. There is a thread on slashdot questioning why it hasn’t been more widely adopted. The article also points to GNU Enterprise, a web site devoted to free software in the enterprise.

Backlinkage! I know it shouldn’t excite me, but it’s nice to know somebody out there is reading this.
Adding a Blogging Layer with w.bloggar. Matt Croydon’s postneo blog contains a pointer to w.bloggar. I’m not sure what the right term for this is, an interface for blogging? middleware? It posts to Blogger and MovableType as well as a few other tools, pings weblogs.com and offers other management services.

256 bit memory? That would be wicked.
Researchers from the University of Southern California School of Engineering have developed a new type of memory that actually puts a processor on the DRAM chip, allowing for significantly faster memory performance and eliminating the gap between CPU and memory performance.
In contrast to standard memory chips that can process 32 bits of information, each PIM chip can process up to 256 bits. With the four reduced instruction-set computing (RISC) processors per chip, the memory has the ability to perform four operations simultaneously, instead of one at a time like traditional memory.

Clear Channel Sucks: A Wired News article that no doubt Doc will be pointing to. I hate them.
“Any company has the same rights to do what we have done,” he said. “We are simply maximizing our position like any good business would try to do.”
