]BoingBoing, a popular Web log, on Friday reported that MSN Spaces ]is rejecting certain blog titles or URLs because they contain words ]that Microsoft has deemed inappropriate. ]But the fun started for many users when blogs with tricky titles ]that resembled innocuous terms--think of a racier version of "tit ]for tat," for example--cleared Microsoft's censorship filters. ]Getting a blog with a dirty name past the MSN Spaces controls may ]be fun, but it also illustrates the tensions between the ]traditionally free and open world of blogging and the more ]corporate approach of a software giant like Microsoft. ]"If you can't speak freely on a blog, what's the point of having ]one?" BoingBoing pointed out. ]These tensions are also apparent in Microsoft's approach to blog ]content. Unlike rival services such as Blogger, MSN Spaces forces ]new users to grant Microsoft permission to "use, copy, distribute, ]transmit, publicly display, publicly perform, reproduce, edit, ]modify, translate and reformat" their blog postings.

] Someone found a huge box of old postcards (1898-1922) in ] an antique shop. Not all that unusual, but what made them ] interesting was that they were all sent between members ] of the same (huge) family. Their finder is now scanning ] them in, transcribing them, and sticking them online. This reminds me of the short lived site "I found part of your life" but over 100 years ago and it comes with original comentary. The postcards of the Keown-Boyd Family 1898-1922 |
