January 21 RIP PS3I found this article to be largely uninspired. I am a bit worried for Sony here. Everyone not just Sony is calling their system a 10 year console. Watching CES 2009 2 microsoft execs stated the same position. So if this is Sony's position well forgive me for calling it unimaginative. Its like stating, "The sky is blue." All we can do is look at you in disbelief and wait for more of a response.
I look back at 2006 when the PS3 was still rather new. I see a theme: over promise and under deliever.
Let us hope Sony realizes money is in the online space and not making a marketing channel for Blue Ray. Oh by the way Sony we do not need another DVD format what we need is a compelling online media experience. People are dying to find a end all service to replace cable. Although I think cable will die a much slower death.
I look at sites like Hulu, NETFLIX.com and Ovguide.com. No doubt that this is the future of broadcasting. When will the TV execs just call the death and move the platform forward?
I can't wait to find out. January 14 Guess they missed the memo web design means supporting IEEpic fail! A site on web layout that doesn't render in IE. Last time I checked most sites user use IE 70-85% of the time. December 31 Mass Media DestructionThe above post came as a blip accross my feed aggregator radar. I think what Newspaper and other publishing proponents are calling a sign of the appocalypse and a degradation of future generation's collect intellegence is sign of great change. Its not enough to have great content. You have to be accessible and not looking out for selfish aims. You have to form community and figure some way of being part of a large enough online entity that advertisers want to monetize your business. Having a efficent and large print capability and great editorial staff is not enough any more.
I disagree that we will some how lose journalism as a result of this shuffle. I think it will get better. No longer are you stuck with your peice of crap newspaper who reports on local news and aggregate the rest from major news wires. There is a big change coming for the wires as well. I am excited when the day comes people realize the power of RSS in a mainstream way and build their own 'newspaper' from feeds they trust. There is nothing stopping advertisers from putting ads in RSS feeds.
The internet will fudamentally change all of media. The day is coming when you will consume all your media from the net. December 18 A False PointQuoted from(http://arstechnica.com/articles/culture/post-sale-life.ars): November 25 Providing a Record Total using an ASP.NET DataSourceA recent request from a client required us to show a record total as window dressing on a standard ASP.NET gridview. Most programmers would prefer it just be a property on the object. However if you know when to grab it you can pretty much do any magic you need to do.
The secret is consuming the Selected event on the DataSource, as below:
protected void odsResults_Selected(object sender, ObjectDataSourceStatusEventArgs e){ litCount.Text = (( DataSet)e.ReturnValue).Tables[0].Rows.Count.ToString();} As you can guess since I have full access to the underlying object at this point I could also calculate subtotals on the grid at the point for specific columns.
