. On a that note does The Mistaken Identity Of A Wikipedia Editor Reflect Worse On Wikipedia… Or The New Yorker Stephen Dubner, over at the Freakonomics blog, is pointing out that The New Yorker has issued a correction to an article about Wikipedia from last summer. The article talked to one of Wikipedia’s site administrators and contributors, who goes by the name Essjay. The article claimed that Essjay was a tenured professor of religion at a private university, who had a Ph.D. in theology. However, the correction notes that Essjay is really a 24-year-old who has no advanced degrees and has never taught. This is getting some attention from the usual Wikipedia haters, suggesting that this is somehow proof of the problems with Wikipedia. However, that seems incredibly backwards. It actually highlights the reverse. It shows the fallibility of The New Yorker — a publication known as one of the few media outlets that still does serious fact checking, but apparently was not able to verify the identity of this individual. If anything, this highlights the fact that the so-called “professionals” often make mistakes too. Also, while mistakes in Wikipedia are a lot more easily correctable, it’s a bit of a process to correct this kind of mistake in The New Yorker — which is why it’s now getting attention.Did you know that Editor means one who writes editorials.

Yahoo Says No Reason For Email Storage Games: Offers Unlimited Storage
nevertheless It’s been almost exactly three years since Google first announced Gmail. The massive one gig of storage surprised the world so much that many assumed it was simply a practical joke by Google. However, Google insisted that they recognized how storage was getting cheaper and cheaper, and that it simply didn’t make sense to limit how much mail you could keep (in fact, for a while, it was quite difficult to delete any mail from Gmail). Of course, while 1 gig seemed nearly infinite three years ago, it wasn’t long before some people noticed it still wasn’t enough. So Google started a running tally increasing their amount of storage every second to try to stay ahead of the curve. The folks over at Yahoo finally realized this was silly and have decided to just ditch the limits entirely, offering unlimited email usage for everyone. Storage is cheap. Getting and keeping users are expensive. If you can use unlimited storage to get and keep users, it’s probably worth it.

Does My Butt Look Big In This Pentium?
Anyhow The concept of trademark is often misunderstood (and often abused, too). It’s not intended to give a holder complete control over a word or mark, rather it’s intended to prevent confusion in the marketplace — so, for instance, I couldn’t start selling a computer operating system called Windows, since it might confuse people into thinking it was that better-known version of Windows. With that in mind, the news that Intel has won a trademark dispute in Indonesia is a little odd, since the company on the other side was making Intel-brand blue jeans. Last we checked, it was pretty obvious that you couldn’t power a computer with dungarees, nor could you use a processor for a pair of pants. An Indonesian court initially agreed, but now the country’s Supreme Court has cancelled the clothing maker’s domestic trademark, in effect shutting down its brand of jeans. Intel, of course, heralds this as some great victory for global intellectual property rights — but really, it’s hard to see how battling some jeans maker in one of the company’s minor markets does much for it in the long run. Unless, of course, it’s got plans for us all to be rocking Centrino shirts, Rosedale pants and the special Viiv underwear during the fall season.

Intel Gives WiFi A Big Boost
We would also recommend this Some researchers at Intel say they’ve devised a way to send WiFi signals up to 100 kilometers (via Broadband Reports) using standard equipment, compared to the few hundred feet they can normally travel. Their system uses directional antennas and special software to do the trick, and it’s intended to be used in developing nations to provide remote areas with internet access. Typically, WiFi signals are sent over a circular area, with the router in the middle. It’s possible to focus the signal, using a directional antenna, in a particular direction, and use power just to send the signal that way, instead of all around. That’s not really any secret or breakthrough, but it sounds like the Intel researchers’ real innovation is in creating a system that electrically steers the antennas on both ends of the connection, automating what can be a particularly difficult task. While it’s being suggested that this technology could replace WiMAX — hence Intel’s apparent lack of interest in rolling it out in the developed world — this directional requirement makes this souped-up WiFi unsuitable for much more than backhauling other types of connections, particularly since it wouldn’t be able to support multiple simultaneous connections. For instance, it could be used to send a net connection to a remote village, where standard WiFi gear could be used to share the connection locally. The advance here isn’t in creating a potential competitor to WiMAX or other mobile broadband technologies; the innovation is in creating a solution to the problem of aligning directional antennas, which could potentially be applied to other wireless technologies beyond WiFi.
