Weekend Reading
News.com: Many e-tailers dodge phone calls to cut costs. Many dot-coms also actively avoid the considerable investment necessary to build an adequate customer service center to answer phones and emails from disgruntled customers.
Wired News: Publishing Without a Net. In an age when people are becoming more and more tech-savvy, these publications are placing their bets that readers will be content to go to their local bodega for their latest literary or high-society gossip fix.
Nick Petreley (Infoworld): Singing the praises of the unsung hero and founder of the Open Source Development Labs. I love the idea of this lab. It solves one of the biggest problems I had with the Linux Standard Base (LSB), other than the fact that LSB is moving at a pace that makes glaciation seem breathtakingly fast.
Anthony Lewis (New York Times; registration required): It Did Happen Here. I do not think that Secretary Richardson or Attorney General Janet Reno decided overtly to use the Lee case for political purposes. I think that, feeling the political pressure, they allowed their judgment to be shockingly distorted.
