CNET 2/1/05 Anxious times in the cartoon underground, In early December, a bombshell dropped onto one of the fastest-growing file-swapping communities online, where Nikolai Nolan has made his home for the last several years.

Nolan, a 22-year-old student at the University of Michigan, is one of the leaders of Anime-Faith, one of hundreds of groups that take Japanese cartoons, translate and subtitle them in English, and release them freely on the Net.
For years this "fansubbing" community has believed that Japanese animation studios tacitly condoned their online activities, at least as long as the shows hadn't yet been released in the United States. But in early December, a studio called Media Factory began sending letters to a handful of big anime fan sites ordering them to stop distributing or linking to copies of its works online.

Burningbird 1/27/05 Cheap Eats at the Semantic Web Cafe, It’s a rare event when several seemingly disparate items of interest all come together to form a compelling, coalescent whole. This event happened for me the past few weeks; an experience formed of discussions about digital identity and laws of same, LID, Technorati Tags, new and old syndication formats, Google’s nofollow, and the divide between tech and user. Especially the divide between tech and user.

Library Journal 2/1/05 The Google Opportunity
http://www.libraryjournal.com/article/CA498846

In the past 18 months we've seen the arrivals of Google Scholar (see "Google in the Academic Library," Online Databases, p. 32), Google Print, Google News, Google Alerts, Google Deskbar, Google Desktop Search, Google Library Digitization Project, Google Suggest, Google Local with Keyhole (maps), Google Gmail, Google Orkut, Google Picasa (digital photo organizer), and on and on. For two years Google has also been snapping up new technology companies—from blogging software to a global positioning system—while also investing in Baidu, China's largest search engine. These changes are altering the world in which we work and, some fear, even threatening our profession and institutions.

Mena's Corner 2/1/05 Welcome Miyagawa-san
http://www.sixapart.com/corner/archives/2005/02/welcome_miyagaw.shtml

I'm very happy to say that Tatsuhiko Miyagawa at Six Apart as our VP of Partner Engineering. Miyagawa-san was previously the Chief Technical Architect at Livedoor in Japan.

I was, of course, already familiar with his work on CPAN and in the Japanese blogging community. On a whole, the Japanese blogging community is incredible about adopting technologies: TrackBack, for example, is very popular in Japan, and TypeKey (as a protocol) is also fairly prevalent. And Tatsuhiko had quite a bit to do with the adoption of both of these technologies, both from his work on CPAN and in the community in general. He's contributed everything from database replication plugins to mobile client libraries to a feed aggregation service.
