Here's a brief interview with me.
*Interviewer:* If the Boing Boing zine and blog were TV characters, who'd
they be, and how'd they get on?
*Mark:* The zine would be Jethro Bodine of "The Beverly Hillbillies" --
curious, neophilic, xenophilic, gleeful, and eager to adopt any new theory
or conspiracy as the absolute truth. The Blog would be Sherman from
"Peabody's Improbable History" -- a traveler of time and space in search of
beauty, truth, and the outre. I think Jethro bOING bOING and Sherman Boing
Boing would be great pals. Jethro would invite Sherman's dog, Mr. Peabody,
to go raccoon hunting with him, and Sherman would send Jethro 40 years into
the future to hang out at the Playboy Mansion.

Java has been successful everywhere but the desktop. Or at least that's what
people here. It's big on the server and that downs out the desktop news. What
else went wrong? Applets. Microsoft's battle with Java. For the longest
time,...

We did a great panel on DRM and the Digital Hub yesterday here at OSXCon with
Tim O'Reilly, Victor Nemachek (from El Gato, makers of the EyeTV digital TV
recorder for the Mac), Dan Gillmor, and JD Lasica, who's working on a book on
fair use and copyfights. Glenn "802.11b Networking News" Fleishman took great
notes through the talk:
Dan: Tim, you're a "content or copyright holder…talk about these issues."
Obscurity can be a tool. Something like 100K books published in the US.
Most books are forgotten after publication. Ravening copying theft is
wrong: most aren't pirated. Publishers puts book that someone sweated over
for years on shelves for three months, doesn't sell, that's it, and the
author has no rights. Publishers keeps rights til out of print, etc.
Oblivion is fate of most books: "Piracy would be the best thing for those
books." People wouldn't pirate them in general, because people generally
like to respect the rights of creators. "Piracy is a marginal act; it takes
away some of the cream."
Publishing won't go away, but it will change the idea of who is a
publisher. Early on in the Web, the idea was that everyone could be a
publisher. The way in which Web sites interact with publishers is often
very much like the way that book publishers try to get placement and
position in bookstores.
Publishing is aggregation. People will re-emerge as publishers. Will
Hollywood be the publishers of the future or will someone else?
Users are voting by their use of programs like Kazaa. Eventually, media
companies will adopt. But if the changes are hardcoded into law, then we're
stuck for a long time with "some mistakes."
