Cash-Net? (Oct 21 2003 16:38 GMT) - Ich kann sie so gut verstehen... es ist wirklich ein Unterschied zwischen Recht haben und Recht bekommen... und in diesem Fall hatte die Gegenseite IMHO sehr schlechte Berater! Mag jemand im Recht sein, muß er noch lange nicht richtig gehandelt haben. Ich selbst lasse mir deshalb nicht verbieten, das auf meiner Seite auch zu schreiben, denn inzwischen bin ich auf der nach oben offenen Wut-Skala bei Ich-muß-jemanden-töten angekommen. |

- Sonntag Morgen, 10:00 Uhr irgendwo in D: ein friedlicher Bürger schläft nach einem langen Samstag den wohlverdienten Schlaf der Gerechten und wird durch ein schallendes und vorerst undefinierbares Läuten jäh daraus geweckt. Mühsam quält sich der unbescholtene Bürger aus seinem Schlafgemach und wankt hin zu seinem Fernsprech-Automaten. Trotz Funktionsstörung diverser Synapsen kann er sich gehorsamst mit Namen zu erkennen geben und ist verwundert ob der Stimme, die ihm da plötzlich entgegen schallmeit: |

- Wow. I sure touched a nerve with my previous post on what I think blog entries should be. In reality, what I wanted to do was throw out the idea of using PDF as a way of controlling the format for longer blog pieces. Jon Flanders, an old friend from my time at DevelopMentor, sent in a link to a Jakob Nielson article on avoiding PDF for on-screen reading. It's an interesting piece, and reflects much of the frustration that folks have with the current state of PDF on web sites today. |

- Microsoft Office 2003 lets users control who can read, print, and forward their documents. It's a significant advance in document security—unless, of course, it isn't. The latest version of Microsoft's widely used Office suite launched this week with a new set of features to control who can view, forward, copy, and print emails and documents. You might think that as a corporate attorney charged with protecting my company's confidential information I would be delighted by such a system. |

At the same time, the IRA and its political counterpart Sinn Fein has issued statements that just stops short of declaring the armed struggle completely over. In some of the strongest words the Sinn Fein president has used in support of the peace process, he said Sinn Fein was "opposed to the use or threat of force for any political purpose". Mr Adams said: "Sinn Fein wants to see the guns taken out of Irish society. |
