Things You Thought Were True In 1999

Your e-mail was private. The Economy was new. There was only one Bush to worry about, and he was taken care of. The 21st century was going to be pretty good. There was a big catastrophe looming, and it was called Y2K. 'Duke Nukem Forever' was coming out soon...[read] Yep, I thought this millennium was gonna be a big deal, and now with 1/20 of it gone, there's no big deal.

AP: SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Sam, the tiny dog whose hairless body and crooked teeth earned him a reputation as the World’s Ugliest Dog, has died. The pooch died Friday, just short of his 15th birthday, his owner said. “I don’t think there’ll ever be another Sam,” Susie Lockheed said, adding: “Some people would think that’s a good thing.”

Hotmail/Live Mail In Your Own Domain

MX your domain to hotmail and they do the rest. Pretty cool. However, while having enough spare money to maintain tens of TLD names, I'm too old for relying my ego on a TLD... Still damn cool though. @ddr in your own domain for mail and IM, with full MSN integration. It's way beyond Passport in your own email @ddr. What's the next, spaces.YourDomain.com?

Something about that dark fiber and underground shipping container

The probable answer lies in one of Google's underground parking garages in Mountain View. There, in a secret area off-limits even to regular GoogleFolk, is a shipping container.

Google hired a pair of very bright industrial designers to figure out how to cram the greatest number of CPUs, the most storage, memory and power support into a 20- or 40-foot box. We're talking about 5000 Opteron processors and 3.5 petabytes of disk storage that can be dropped-off overnight by a tractor-trailer rig. The idea is to plant one of these puppies anywhere Google owns access to fiber, basically turning the entire Internet into a giant processing and storage grid. [read][chs]
