They’re at it again:

June 6, 2000 by Michael Boyle

It seems that pirates have ripped off a couple more domains. As I wrote on the weekend I bet Network Solutions is part of the problem (if not the problem), not part of the solution.

If there’s any doubt that this is malicious tampering, and not some faux-principled battle for the soul of the net – last week’s victims, web.net are not a soulless corporation but a highly principled non-profit resource center for other non-profits and charities.

There have been a rash of

June 6, 2000 by Michael Boyle

new designs lately on weblogs I read. The absolute latest is Swallowing Tacks. It’s a very hep look now. Very tiki lounge, very late 50s but not in that rocknroll way, in the “mass media trying to be hip like those pesky beats” way. Which is a compliment, BTW.

wrote an excellent letter describing the latest design decisions at Salon. Yes, they ditched some of the new “features”.

There’s an excerpt

May 19, 2000 by Michael Boyle

from Jon Lebkowsky’s upcoming book, Virtual Bonfire, available in the latest issue of Mindjack magazine. This excerpt is about organizing and activism on the net – something Jon knows more about than most.

I like Heather’s idea too…

May 13, 2000 by Michael Boyle

Heather made a proposal that makes a lot of sense. A Sundance for the web. Brig agreed. Think about this: a nice space to meet and work (lightly), an on-the-spot friendly contest (like the 5K, but in place), the year’s work, new ideas, new connections, new excitement… I can talk about it – you all are the ones who could make it happen. The trick is to start small enough that a core of completely committed people can kick it off with little fanfare, but still sustain an interesting moment to build on.
