Wired 13.05: The Wired 40

They're masters of technology and innovation. They're global thinkers driven by strategic vision. They're nimbler than Martha Stewart's PR team. They're The Wired 40. 10. EBAY The Buyer's Seller's Market Last year: 5 Once the world's biggest yard sale, eBay has become the epitome of ecommerce: a global marketplace responsible last year for $34.2 billion worth of auctions and fixed-price sales. With no inventory costs, eBay generates net margins of 24 percent. Meanwhile, the company's PayPal division is becoming the standard for online payments. With 56 million active users, eBay has a big say in what gets sold online and how we pay for it. Challenge: Stop taking sellers for granted. After recent fee increases, 7,000 eBay stores closed. Opportunity: China. EBay must do better there than it did in Japan, where it got spanked by Yahoo! in 2001 and beat a retreat.

Today among a gang of formal Yifei employees I went to he's house and paid homeage to Chen. Today is the very birthday of Chen. People sang the birthday song to Chen in tears. The day he passed away, was the 4th anniversary of my first meeting my wife at Yifei HQ at Summit Center. Yifei HQ at Summit Center was officially operational on April 9th, 2001.

Yifei Chen: A kind man with his big vision

Despite all criticisms as an entrepreneur and a boss, Chen has an artist's faith to build a world of vision. As the man who headed my first job, he gave full trust, opportunity, support and credit to people like me, my wife and people who became top designs years later. Chen recruited a few guys from SJTU to build yifei.com in late 1998. This job turned a CS novice into a senior engineer in the Internet industry who later worked at Microsoft and eBay. A KPMG secretary went to job interview for Chen's secretary in 2001, but was recruited as an editor of yifei.com and soon a feature editor of Vision Magzine. Chen sent these rookies abroad for National-Geography-like missions to build them up. She is working for Vogue now. With all respect, R.I.P., Chen. 著名导演、画家陈逸飞因胃出血刚刚在上海华山医院去世，享年59岁。据悉，在陈逸飞 死亡记录卡上，显示 是今天早上8点44分死亡，死因是上消化道大出血。 导演陈逸飞上海去世 新浪

Google Gulp

From FAQ:

Q: Well, shouldn't Auto-Drink™ be default-off? A: You mean we should cripple a perfectly useful feature just because of a little bad PR?

At Google our mission is to organize the world's information and make it useful and accessible to our users. But any piece of information's usefulness derives, to a depressing degree, from the cognitive ability of the user who's using it. That's why we're pleased to announce Google Gulp (BETA)™ with Auto-Drink™ (LIMITED RELEASE), a line of "smart drinks" designed to maximize your surfing efficiency by making you more intelligent, and less thirsty. Think fruity. Think refreshing. Think a DNA scanner embedded in the lip of your bottle reading all 3 gigabytes of your base pair genetic data in a fraction of a second, fine-tuning your individual hormonal cocktail in real time using our patented Auto-Drink™ technology, and slamming a truckload of electrolytic neurotransmitter smart-drug stimulants past the blood-brain barrier to achieve maximum optimization of your soon-to-be-grateful cerebral cortex. Plus, it's low in carbs! And with flavors ranging from Beta Carroty to Glutamate Grape, you'll never run out of ways to quench your thirst for knowledge. How to get Gulped? You can pick up your own supply of this "limited release" product simply by turning in a used Gulp Cap at your local grocery store. How to get a Gulp Cap? Well, if you know someone who's already been "gulped," they can give you one. And if you don't know anyone who can give you one, don't worry – that just means you aren't cool. But very, very (very!) soon, you will be. Learn more: From forest to freezer : history 4 great flavors : product details Frequently asked questions

Toshiba's New Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery Recharges in Only One Minute

TOKYO -- Toshiba Corporation today announced a breakthrough in lithium-ion batteries that makes long recharge times a thing of the past. The company's new battery can recharge 80% of a battery's energy capacity in only one minute, approximately 60 times faster than the typical lithium-ion batteries in wide use today, and combines this fast recharge time with performance-boosting improvements in energy density. The new battery fuses Toshiba's latest advances in nano-material technology for the electric devices sector with cumulative know-how in manufacturing lithium-ion battery cells. A breakthrough technology applied to the negative electrode uses new nano-particles to prevent organic liquid electrolytes from reducing during battery recharging. The nano-particles quickly absorb and store vast amount of lithium ions, without causing any deterioration in the electrode. The excellent recharging characteristics of new battery are not its only performance advantages. The battery has a long life cycle, losing only 1% of capacity after 1,000 cycles of discharging and recharging, and can operate at very low temperatures. At minus 40 degrees centigrade, the battery can discharge 80% of its capacity, against 100% in an ambient temperature of 25 degree centigrade). Toshiba will bring the new rechargeable battery to commercial products in 2006. Initial applications will be in the automotive and industrial sectors, where the slim, small-sized battery will deliver large amounts of energy while requiring only a minute to recharge. For example, the battery's advantages in size, weight and safety highly suit it for a role as an alternative power source for hybrid electric vehicles. Toshiba expects that the high energy density and excellent recharge performance of the new battery will assure its successful application as a new energy solution in many areas of society.

不回德国的声明

水木清华Science版于"3.16 水木清华BBS被迫对校外关站"事件后的进版 -- speedfire注 不回德国的声明 只要我还能有所选择，我就只想生活在这样的 国家里，这个国家所实行的是：公民自由，宽容， 以及在法律面前公民一律平等。公民自由意味着人 们有用语言和文字表示其政治信念的自由；宽容意 味着尊重别人的无论哪种可能有的信念。这些条件 目前在德国都不存在…… ——A.EINSTEIN 1933.3.10 附: 周济在教育部学习《意见》座谈会上的讲话 　　刚才大家谈到的网络，网络对青年学生的影响非常深刻，这是我们面临的新的情况。我们发现大部分的学生是不太看报纸和电视，主要得信息的途径就是网络，但是，我们也发现另外一个情况，其实国外的那些BBS网站没有什么影响，没有多少人相信，看的人也没有中国人多，这和中国的体制和机制有很大的关系。我发现有些学生不仅看，看了很多，还信，BBS网站上可以随意乱说，而且我发现很多的持有正确意见的人并不一定发表意见，倒是喜欢发牢骚的人喜欢发意见。还有一个重要的原因，国外组织很强大的力量在写各种各样不同的网络的信息，但是，我们面对的问题是，学生不仅看了，还相信，所以，这种情况下，给我们提出了很多新的问题，所有这些都是大学生思想政 治教育面临的新课题，所以，中央明确的提出来加强和改进大学生思想政治教育是一项 极为紧迫的重要任务。
