8 Jorn Barger and Dave Winer: Self-Knowledge, Integrity, and Transcendentalism Weblogs 1994 – 2000: A Genealogy Rudolf Ammann A dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Department of Information Studies University College London September 2012 [revised version of 8 May 2013] 2 I, Rudolf Ammann, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated. 3 Abstract Using extensive fieldwork in the online archival record, this thesis ac- counts for the descent and emergence of the weblog as a digital genre during its formative period up to the year 2000. The work examines the weblog’s process of genre formation as diffusion of innovation within a heterogeneous discourse network. It describes this process as a series of several consecutive and cumulative reinterpretations of the emerging genre’s form and intended purpose, effected for the most part by the most central actors in the network. 4 Acknowledgements This work owes a big debt of gratitude to Melissa Terras and Claire Warwick for their expert guidance. At various points, Matthew Kirschenbaum, David Nicholas, Julianne Nyhan and Mike Thelwall provided valuable assistance as well. Anonymous reviewers and delegates of the Hypertext 2009 and the Applications of Social Network Analysis 2010 conferences helped improve some of the materials presented in this thesis. This thesis benefited from correspondence with Jorn Barger, Mark Bernstein, Steve Bogart, Dan Gillmor, the late Chris Gulker, Robert Hooker, Dan Lyke, Pete Prodoehl, Scott Rosenberg, Edward Viel- metti, and Dave Winer, amongst many others. David Kornblith and Frank Bennett promptly and efficiently solved the problems caused by the excessive demands my work placed on Zotero’s citation handling. Simon Mahony conducted therapeutic sessions at local drinking establishments. Barbara Dieu, Susan Greenberg and Ernesto Priego contributed valuable discussion and companionship. Toshiko Ito inspired the project. My parents, Ruedi and Lisbeth Ammann, gave me the latitude to explore my own paths. Thanks to all of the above! The errors, omissions and lapses of judgement in this work are mine. 5 Table of Contents 1

BRENNER* This Article explains why and how computer technology complicates the related processes of identifying internal (crime and terrorism) and external (war) threats to social order of respondingto those threats. First, it divides the process-attribution-intotwo categories: what-attribution (what kind of attack is this?) and who-attribution (who is responsiblefor this attack?). Then, it analyzes, in detail, how and why our adversaries' use of computer technology blurs the distinctions between what is now cybercrime, cyberterrorism, and cyberwarfare. The Article goes on to analyze how and why computer technology and the blurring of these distinctions erode our ability to mount an effective response to threats of either type.

    THE INTERNET AND ISI: FOUR DECADES OF INNOVATION ROD BECKSTROM President and Chief Executive Officer Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) 40th Anniversary of USC Information Sciences Institute 26 April 2012 As prepared for delivery It’s an honor to be here today to mark the 40th anniversary of the University of Southern California’s Information Sciences Institute. Thank you to Herb Schorr for inviting me to speak with you today and participate in the day’s events. When he steps down he will leave some very large shoes to fill. When I received Herb’s invitation, I seized upon it as an opportunity to come before you to express the sincere gratitude that my colleagues and I feel for the work and support of ISI. When I think of ICANN and its development, and all we have accomplished, I never forget that we stand upon the shoulders of giants, many of whom contributed to my remarks today. In fact, I owe a special debt of gratitude to Bob Kahn, who has been a mentor to me. I am honored that he took the time to walk through a number of details in the history I have been asked to relate. The organizers asked me to speak about the history of ISI and ICANN. They also invited me to talk a bit about the future of the Internet. In my role as President and CEO of ICANN, I have many speaking engagements that are forward looking. They are opportunities to talk about ICANN’s work and how it will usher in the next phase in the history of the global, unified Internet that many of you have helped to create.

  • RSS Version History
    RRSSSS -- VVEERRSSIIOONN HHIISSTTOORRYY http://www.tutorialspoint.com/rss/rss-version-history.htm Copyright © tutorialspoint.com RSS was first invented by Netscape. They wanted to use an XML format to distribute news, stories, and information. Netscape refined the version of RSS and then dropped it. Later Userland Software started controlling RSS specifications and releasing newer RSS versions. They continued development of their own version of RSS and eventually UserLand released RSS v2. RSS has been released in many different versions. 12/27/97 - Dave Winer at Userland developed scriptingNews. RSS was born. 3/15/99 - Netscape developed RSS 0.90 whichsupportedscriptingNews. This was simply XML with an RDF Header and it was used for my.netscape.com. 6/15/99 - Dave Winer at UserLand develops scriptingNews 2.0b1, which included Netscape's RSS 0.90 features also. 7/10/99 - Netscape developed RSS 0.91. In this version they removed the RDF header, but included most features from scriptingNews 2.0b1. 7/28/99 - UserLand deprecated scriptingNews formats and adopted only RSS 0.91. Netscape stops their RSS development. 6/4/00 - UserLand releases the official RSS 0.91 specification. 8/14/00 - A group led by Rael Dornfest at O'Reilly, developed RSS 1.0. This format uses RDF and namespaces. This version is often confused as being a new version of 0.91, but this is a completely new format with no ties to RSS 0.91 12/25/00 - Dave Winer at UserLand develops RSS 0.92, which is 0.91 with optional elements. 04/20/01 - RSS0.93 was discussed but never deployed.

  • Healthcare Blogging-A Review S Sethi
    The Internet Journal of Radiology ISPUB.COM Volume 10 Number 2 Healthcare Blogging-A review S Sethi Citation S Sethi. Healthcare Blogging-A review. The Internet Journal of Radiology. 2008 Volume 10 Number 2. Abstract The Internet is changing medicine and web 2.0 is the current buzz word in the world wide web dictionary. According to Dean Giustini in British Medical Journal, web 2.0 means “the web as platform” and “architecture of participation”. It is the web or internet information which is created by the users themselves. Web 2.0 is primarily about the benefits of easy to use and free internet software. For example, blogs and wikis facilitate participation and conversations across a vast geographical expanse. Information pushing devices, like RSS feeds, permit continuous instant alerting to the latest ideas in medicine. Multimedia tools like podcasts and videocasts are increasingly popular in medical schools and medical journals. Recently, there has been no escaping the mention of blogs in the media. Blogging has emerged as a social phenomenon, which has impacted politics, business, and communication. Medical field or healthcare is also not immune to this global phenomenon. Hence this chapter will deal with this phenomenon of blogging, with emphasis on what is a blog, historical significance, various software platforms available, blogging for a physician, pros and cons of blogging in healthcare, examples from popular healthcare blogs and prediction for future trends. This chapter will familiarize the reader about healthcare blogs and their impact on healthcare. INTRODUCTION participating in these small communities with fellow A blog or weblog (derived from web+log) is a web based ‘‘techies.’‘ Because of the skills and understanding required publication consisting primarily of periodic articles to create blogs, they were not nearly as widespread as they (normally, but not always, in reverse chronological order).

Yet, we have much to gain by not exclusively positing social media platforms as a 21st-century phenomenon. Through case studies of two commercially sponsored web projects from the mid-1990s—Massachusetts Institute of Technology Media Lab’s Day in the Life of Cyberspace and Rick Smolan’s 24 Hours in Cyberspace—this article examines how notions of social and publics were imagined and designed into the web at the start of the dot-com boom. In lieu of a discourse of versions, I draw on Lucy Suchman’s trope of configuration as an analytic tool for rethinking web historiography. By tracing how cultural imaginaries of the Internet as a public space are conjoined with technological artifacts (content management systems, templates, session tracking, and e-commerce platforms) and reconfigured over time, the discourses of “read-only publishing” and the “social media revolution” can be reframed not as exclusively oppositional logics, but rather, as mutually informing the design and development of today’s social, commercial, web. Keywords social media, web history, web 1.0, web 2.0, public, read-only For a decade now, the participatory potential of social media Yet, a closer examination of web history suggests the has become synonymous with Web 2.0 platforms like boundaries separating 1.0 and 2.0 eras may do more to dis- Facebook and Twitter that facilitate the sharing of user-gen- tort our understandings of cultural and technological change.
