29 May 我MBP的风扇据说出了点小问题。。。表现是最近机身温度偏高,然后用 iStat Menu 看了一下核心温度和散热片温度。现在CPU温度是60°C,CPU 散热片的温度是53°C/44°C,觉得温度差异有点大…于是送去 ServiceOne 了。还好本子买了 ACPP(AppleCare Protection Plan) ,有三年的保修,检测之后说我的风扇有点问题,定了备件我就先把本子取了回来。
之前我是打热线 4006-APCARE(4006-272273)抱怨了两下,开头那个 MM 态度不错,让我尝试关机然后按住 command+option+p+r 开机,重新设定一下PRAM,然后是拆电池按住电源键放电,都不起作用。她就建议让我拿去售后让工程师检查检查。等换好了以后再看看吧。。。 Update: 成功修好了本子,风扇不再那么吵人了,温度也降低了些许,可能是自己的主观感觉吧。服务态度还不错,有了 ACPP 后换东西也爽快。取机器的时候发现本子不太容易合上,需要用点力气,同时触控板也不是太好使(这个倒是个老问题,不过修后更严重了一些),于是就又报了一次修。接件的GG挺为难,说哎呀你不一次给说了,这下客户的一次维修满意度要被扣分了云云,不过还是很爽快的让我填单等备件了。 Update: 换上了新的上盖以及触控板,果然好用很多,手感也很出色,和新的就是完全一样的感觉了。可是,怎么感觉这个上盖的银色也是漆上去的呢?=,= 14 January 让人囧的苹果中国查看苹果下的快捷键,我看到了英文知识库里面的文章:http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75459-en,想看看中文版,点击“简体中文”后到了这里:http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75459-zh,标题没有问题,内容完全不是那么回事。
然后在中文界面的Mac OS X中访问“苹果菜单”-“Mac OS X软件”,本来应该转入Mac OS X软件目录,结果到了这么个页面:“http://www.apple.com.cn/macosx/get”,进去后是“网页找不到”。这个,可是中文版用户非常有可能点击的页面啊! 唉,这样的苹果中国,如何会有销售的增长呢? 别的不多说了。。。研究在Safari的书签里面放啥网站,不如真的考虑考虑把细节给做好来。 29 December 悼:Netscape Navigator根据Netscape Blog方面的消息,这个1994年推出的Netscape Navigator,入选PC World 历史上最伟大的50款技术产品,正式推出了历史舞台。现在被部分人所熟悉的Firefox浏览器,也是在其代码基础上开发的。你还可以回顾那些历史版本的Netscape Navigator。
实话说,我现在用的最多的是Safari,其次是Firefox。在前Mac时代,用的最多是Firefox/Maxthon,再之前是MyIE2,再之前是Internet Explorer 3。基本没有怎么用过Netscape他们家的。 24 September 雅虎中国的电子邮箱:只配做第二选择教一个从来没有上过网的亲戚上网,他使用个服务需要注册个账号,注册账号需要有个电子邮箱。于是,我推荐他去看看雅虎中国的电子邮箱。于是。。。他在注册的时候居然要填写一个“备用邮箱”。
好吧,雅虎中国你也就配做个二奶。 06 June 盗版不是因为贫穷?IFPI列举了“十大难以忽视的真相”,其中提到关于中国的一条是:
Piracy is not caused by poverty. Professor Zhang of Nanjing University found the Chinese citizens who bought pirate products were mainly middle- or higher-income earners. 看到这里,我大寒了一下。难道这个调查中没有考虑到,对于Pirate主要针对的音像制品的需求,在低收入人群中有多少?依据总量来修正样本偏差是应该要做的事情吧。 谁见款爷去逛北京动物园地区的服装批发市场淘外贸货的?反正我知道那里反而是低收入者的天堂。进而,低收入者根本没有品牌认知,哪里还会考虑去买假名牌呢?而盗版音像和软件是一样一样的 05 June 重大消息!OpenOffice.org Aqua放出了预发布版本OpenOffice.org是一个开源的办公套件计划,之前需要X11才能在MacOS上跑,之后还有通过Java实现的NeoOffice,不过速度是有点慢。自从今年5月3日,Sun宣布支持Mac native的Aqua OOo开发后,进度真不可同日而语了。这就放出了预发布版本。 目前的局限也有很多,详细请在这里查看和下载。 24 May 三件Linux 社区还做不到的事Source: http://blogs.zdnet.com/hardware/?p=424 The response to the Five crucial things the Linux community doesn’t understand about the average computer user post I made the other day was, well overwhelming. With some of you I think that the post rung a bell, while with others it must have touched a nerve. I’m pretty sure that getting over 750 TalkBack comments in a couple of days is some kind of record here at ZDNet and just in case there’s an award, I’m already writing my speech! :-) Choosing a suitable Linux distro is a bit like the uninitiated making a trip to Starbucks and expecting to be able to order a plain simple cup of coffeeAnyway, after wading through some of the comments (I don’t know how some of you managed to keep up with the conversation in real time … you deserve some kind of award too) I’ve realized that I missed three more points about regular PC users that some in the Linux community (the more vocal members perhaps?) just don’t get. 1 - The Mac effect If consumers want a safe way to experience the benefits of running a Unix system, then they have the option of bypassing all the driver and application hassles that Linux offers and choose the Mac route. Sure, you have to pay for it (and pay a premium at that) and it’s closed source but the average consumer with money burning a hole in their pocket doesn’t give a hoot whether the OS is open source, closed source something in-between. What most users want is a bit of kit they can just push one button to get it going and then start using it. Mac offers this. While Linux offers to remove security worries, Mac does exactly the same while at the same time removing the uncertainty that things won’t work. Choosing Mac over Linux also eliminates the complexity associated with choice. Choosing a suitable Linux distro is a bit like the uninitiated making a trip to Starbucks and expecting to be able to order a plain simple cup of coffee – you quickly realize that life isn’t that simple and you need to step out of the queue and do a lot of learning before you walk up to the counter again. With Mac the choice is simply one OS. Simple. Apple also manages to add two other ingredients to the Mac OS that I find lacking in Linux distros - The Mac OS is perceived as being cool and sexy. Even Ubuntu, which is the best Linux distro I’ve used doesn’t match up to the Mac OS on either of these points. Mac is the perfect example that people are willing to pay good money for peace of mind. The premium price that Apple charges for products sets a subconcious value on the quality and service that the consumer feels they can expect. Free just can’t compete with that. 2 - Who provides the free tech support? Negative campaigning seems to work for political parties but it doesn’t work for Linux - and the numbers prove this I’m going to take a wild guess and predict that the average ZDNet blogs reader is seen by those around them as being “good with computers” (as well as being suave and sophisticated of course …). I’d also take a guess that you’re the person that friends and family members turn to for free tech support (and if you’re free of this curse then you don’t know how lucky you are!). Most people who own a PC will want help with it at some point and while some people turn to tech support and others hit the web searching for answers, the majority turn to friends and family for help. If you’re a Windows user then there’s a good chance you know someone who falls into the category of “being good with computers” who will be willing to help. If the person needing help is running Mac, it’s more tricky to find someone who falls into the “owns a Mac and is good with computers” category. Running Linux, forget it. I know people who really want to make the leap to Mac but who won’t because they don’t know people who could help them if they needed help. 3 - Chill out, it’s just an operating system! Here’s another reason why the Linux market share has been flatlined for years while the Mac share is increasing - Mac communities are on the whole friendlier than Linux communities. I’m not sure if it’s just a case that there’s a small subset of the Linux community which is both aggressive and vocal or whether the problem is much broader, but this is a major turn off for people considering making the transition to a Linux OS. Even back when Mac communities were considered by many to be pretty hostile and unfriendly places Steve Jobs was clever enough to make sure that this kind of fanatical nonsense didn’t make it onto the Apple site and sales literature (although Apple is perfectly capable of coming up with their own fanatical nonsense, at least it’s not that aggressive). Negative campaigning seems to work for political parties but it doesn’t work for Linux - and the numbers prove this. Seriously, given the passion behind some of the comments I come across from some Linux users, you’d have thought I was talking about something with life-or-death importance like a heart machine and not an OS. Bonus - Linux is not too geeky … really!?!? One of my points was that despite recent attempts at making some Linux distros more accessible, there are still aspects of the OS that are too geeky and inaccessible. Many disagreed with me on this point but what they didn’t realize is that while arguing the point they proved my point. Here’s just one such example of someone proving my point: Put a Windows user in front of a Gnome or KDE environment and I’m willing to bet that they will be able to find their way around. OK, and talking about Gnome and KDE environments isn’t too geeky? Care to simplify that for the average user? The author of the post, having got that off their chest, then goes on to pretty much agree with that I said: It may take a little while, but eventually they’ll figure out what applications are available and what they need. Yeah, eventually. Thoughts? 为什么用户宁愿选择购买Windows或Mac而不使用免费的Linux?Source: http://blogs.zdnet.com/hardware/?p=420 Question: Why is it that the average computer user still chooses to spend hundreds of dollars on Windows or Mac when there are countless Linux alternatives that they could download, install and make use of completely free of charge? The PC market is extremely cut-throat. It has to be because consumers will go to great lengths to save a few bucks when buying their latest system. But it seems that this thriftiness hasn’t resulted in hordes of users choosing to buy PCs without Windows installed and instead choosing to install Linux instead. In fact, there are plenty of users who would rather break the law and install pirated copies of Windows than go the legal route and install a Linux distro. On the whole, most people would rather spend the money on Windows (or Mac) than take the time to experiment with Linux. It’s pretty sad, but beyond a certain small segment of computer users, you can’t give Linux away Why? It seems that a lot of people are wondering this. Since starting to dabble in the world of Linux I’ve seen this question posed on innumerable websites, forums and blogs. Why is it that when consumer satisfaction with Windows is at a low (at least according to many in the pro-Linux community it is) is the Linux market share so low? It’s pretty sad, but beyond a certain small segment of computer users, you can’t give Linux away. Over the past decade I’ve had the opportunity (through my websites, blogs and the online classes I’ve run) of coming into contact with tens of thousands of computer users from all walks of life and this experience has been extremely valuable to me in getting a glimpse into how individuals view the relationship they have with their computer. Based on this, along with my recent experience with Linux distros and communities, I’ve come to the conclusion that there are five crucial things the Linux community doesn’t understand about the average computer user, and that these five things are slowing down the adoption of Linux onto desktop systems in the home and office. 1 - On the whole, users aren’t all that dissatisfied with Windows Despite what you read on websites and blogs, newspapers and magazines, people on the whole aren’t all that dissatisfied with Windows. There are millions of users out there who just get on and use their PCs without any real difficulty. After a decade of watching various trends and listening to people claim that there’s going to be a mass exodus from Windows “any day now,” I’ve just not seen it happen. Sure, the number of Linux users is now up a few percentage points on what it was a decade ago, but there’s no sign of a huge migration from Windows to Linux. In fact, add Mac gains into the equation and the argument that people want open source seems to fall down. Rather than moving from Windows to a free Linux distro, it seems that people are happier moving from one paid for, closed source OS to another. The other flaw with hoping that dissatisfaction would drive users to another OS is that people just don’t think that way. When facing a problem with their PC, people don’t automatically start thinking “oh, a problem, I’d better go look for another operating system.” No, these people just want the problem solved so that they can carry on with the work or leisure activities they were previously engaged in. Switching OS is not a simple solution to a problem. 2 - Too many distros Want to know why more people don’t choose Linux? Here’s a clue for you: Put simply, there are just too many darn distros to choose from. Sure, put in some time and effort into research and experimentation and you’ll find a distro that works for you, but let’s face it Windows users are having a hard enough time now figuring out whether they should go for Vista Home Basic or Home Premium. Try and sum up the pros and cons of all the Linux distros and it just becomes far too complicated for users. Look at the Mac user numbers and ask what Mac got that Windows and Linux don’t - one choice. You might be wondering why people like choice when it comes to browsers (Internet Explorer vs. Firefox) but not when it comes to their OS. Simple, experimenting with a browser is safe, while messing about with Live CDs and virtual machines is beyond most people. Tell most people that you spent the weekend running a variety of Linux distros thorough VMware and they wonder if you rounded off the entertainment by sticking pins in your eyes. 3 - People want certainty that hardware and software will work Name me five bits of hardware that lists Linux as a supported system on the box. I’ve just had a look around the office and I can’t find a single thing that lists Linux explicitly (I think I got a USB key some time ago that mentioned Linux but I can’t be sure). Until we see hardware vendors shipping Linux drivers for hardware as standard, this will remain a nightmare for anyone who doesn’t have a sense of adventure. It’s worse for software. Anyone making the leap from Windows to Linux has to start from scratch with regards to applications. That’s a much bigger undertaking than the Linux community gives credit for. Having to come up with an alternative for every application you use is a big job. Even with Dell’s plan to ship PCs with Linux pre-installed, it’s likely that the only people who will buy these will be people with enough experience using Linux to know what will work and what won’t (or who will know where to find the answers). I’m also left wondering how many people will buy an Ubuntu-powered Dell only to find out that there’s more to running a Linux distro than getting an OS for nothing. And how many will eventually give up and install Windows onto them? 4 - As far as most people are concerned, the command line has gone the way of the dinosaur Linux users rave about the fact that under Linux you can dispense with the GUI and go back to the command line (even I like the power offered by the command line). But let’s face it, we “command line fans” are in the minority. For those old enough to remember DOS, most are glad than those days are over, for others bought up on Windows, it’s hard to explain the benefits of a command driven interface. In an age where people find it hard to keep a few control key keyboard commands in their head for any length of time, the idea of switching to a command line system just doesn’t appeal to many people. 5 - Linux is still too geeky Over the last few years there’s been a huge push to make some Linux distros easier to use, and when you look at a distro like Ubuntu, you realize that they’ve done a pretty good job. Problem is, there are some areas of the OS that are still overwhelmingly geeky (for example, updates). Here’s what I wrote about this problem a few weeks ago: Ubuntu is nice, it’s solid, it’s fast and it’s robust (so far anyway), but it’s also way too geeky in spots. Don’t get me wrong, overall Ubuntu is nice, friendly and convivial. But there are dark corners that absolutely reek of Linux geekdom cliquiness that average users aren’t going to feel at home in (I don’t feel at home there). Ubuntu updates are one such area where you need a high level of know-how to understand what’s going on.What the Ubuntu dev team need to do is find, I don’t know, 100 people who aren’t Linux geeks and stick them in front of the OS. Use these people to get feedback on different aspects of the OS. As soon as users start to look confused, scared or go bug-eyed then something needs tweaking. If your average home user is going to look at Ubuntu as an alternative to Windows or Mac, all these geeky corners have to be smoothed out. Thoughts? 透过现象看本质:IM工具和受众比例首先转载一个调查报告:

杀毒门事件透露出的一些有意思的现象今日,Symantec公司(赛门铁克)的杀毒软件自摆乌龙,给中国用户导致了“巨大的损失”。这里有一些细节值得注意:有多少用户是使用正版杀毒软件的用户?同时,杀毒软件怎么就成了必不可少的软件了呢? 病毒、木马、钓鱼、广告软件等恶意代码在国内泛滥的情况仿佛若干年前美国发生的事情,之前由于技术的限制,出现的往往是广告弹出(现在不还能看到宣传看广告,上网同时坐收美金的事情么),还有就是劫持拨号程序以产生高额话费的程序。近些年由于互联网的普及,浏览器成了攻击者的主要目标,利用系统漏洞,通过网站植入代码渗透安插病毒木马,有良心的也就不时放点广告出来,过分些的是通过局域网探测攻击其他主机,再恶毒的就是巧妙隐藏自己,着力盗取用户的机密信息(比如游戏账号,比如银行账号密码)。也正因为用户电脑维护意识的匮乏,对杀毒软件产生了极大的依赖。 但是,有多少用户每天保持杀毒软件的更新?又有多少用户愿意掏钱购买正版杀毒软件呢?一年几十的费用对电脑用户来说不过是顿饭钱,但是他们依然没有产生这样的习惯。哎,不怪乎自己成为瓮中鳖了。 好吧,为什么不尝试一下Linux?安全、免费的操作系统?现在如Ubuntu这样的发行版在易用性上已经有了长足的进步,更能给用户安全保障,当然,如果你和我一样用Mac,那也是安全得很。可惜,有勇气打破习惯的人毕竟是少数。再说,现在国内的厂商基本默认了所有电脑上安装的都是Windows和IE了,其他平台确实会产生一些问题比如流行游戏啊,比如网络银行啊,比如证券系统啊⋯⋯情况会有改观的吧⋯⋯ Linux何时才可以走入桌面占据一个不算太小的份额呢?大多数中国用户拿到预装Linux操作系统的电脑后所做的第一个事情就是格式化,安装盗版的Windows系统。有谣言说Micro$oft正在配合美国商务部调查中国的操作系统盗版率,国人终究要为自己的小聪明付出代价的! PS: 如果还是固守Windows,那么,可以用免费正版的杀毒软件AVG和avast!。免费使用,时刻更新! 21 May FIT发布1.0.1版FIT是一个MacOSX下的免费中文输入法,目前提供拼音和五笔两种输入方式。 目前来看,FIT已经可以满足日常使用之需,同时也比ITABC更为方便好用。同时,作者还在不断的改进中。 输入法主页:http://fit.coollittlethings.com/ 同时,作者公布了2.0的开源开发计划。在各个功能中进行取舍,给用户一个比较好的体验是比较痛苦的事情⋯⋯Mac下太需要一个好输入法了。 10 May 这里都要荒掉了-___-b实在不知道应该写些什么。Spaces这么慢的速度,打消了我的热情。记一下流水账。

http://feed.feedsky.com/heater 12 April 维基百科和Wiki模式:Broken beyond repair?全文链接: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/education/article1637535.ece 摘要:Wikipedia的Co-Founder认为:Wikipedia的匿名协作模式为公众带来了很多错误的信息,Wiki模式已经无可救药了。 发表一下我自己的看法。 本质上呢?Wiki是一种方便快捷的协作模式,和Blog类似,Blog也只是一个简单的个人发布平台而已。Blog并不是一个所谓的“个人媒体”,而Wiki也只是一个协作模式,并不是一个百科全书。 好,下面说一下Wikipedia的运作机制:大多数人的及时更正,可以让Wikipedia避免错误。同时Wikipedia这样一个“全球最大的协作百科全书”项目的光环,给了修改者很好的道德激励。 当然,Wikipedia同样也遇到一些问题,比如多数人的意见和少数人的意见无法得到统一,引用来源缺乏规范甚至很多消息缺乏引用来源,极端主义分子横行。 进一步,现在Wikipedia越来越被当作是一个很好的参考来源,地位不断提高,从而让这个平台更加引人注目同时也更容易受到恶意的破坏。从统计数字上说,维基的大部分条目是20%甚至更少的用户编写的,其他用户的贡献是非常少的。 逻辑上来说,用户通过搜索相关信息来到Wikipedia,他本身对查看的条目是不了解的,又有什么能力去进行修改呢?这说明了Wikipedia的用户缺乏修改的能力。 同时,由于只是结构的膨胀超越了用户能力的膨胀和用户数量的提高,知识爆炸也突显出来。在大众都能够有常识了解的领域,Wikipedia可以获得很多关注,同时条目也会较公正客观。但是在一些大众都比较陌生的前沿研究领域,或者是历史事件上,大众缺乏常识性了解,Wikipeda就成了小众的舞台,背离了公正性的保障机制,从而并不可靠。 因此,把Wikipeda当作一个不错的参考资料来源的来源地是很好的。 10 April 搜狗是专利反垄断的旗帜和标杆!晒一下。搜狗“相信,搜狗输入法的创意和技术突破,将享有多项知识产权专利”。专利局的可以出来说说了。
想个创意就能当专利啦⋯⋯ 搜狗输入法关于google侵权的再次声明 1、 搜狐公司认为,google盗用搜狗输入法词库是对搜狗输入法著作权的侵权,是对搜狗技术人员劳动成果的不尊重。对于google公司致歉的态度,搜狐公司表示欢迎。 2、 但是,我们认为,搜狗输入法是搜狗研发中心工程师和高层领导共同探讨进行的重大技术革新和重大的技术突破,是人类首次将搜索引擎技术,用于分析中文互联网网民的语言行为,对网民上网行为进行动态的信息提取,把网民集体智慧经过动态技术分析和提炼,以输入法的方式回馈网民。 3、 对网民的搜索行为进行深度研究,从而服务于网民,形成高度智能的输入法,即用搜索引擎做输入法,这是一次重大的技术革新。搜狗输入法使中国人的输入速度提高一至两倍,在中国迅速崛起的大背景下,将使中国人和中国文化以更快速的方法占有和形成全球互联网的话语权,是对中华文明的重大贡献,代表了人工智能应用的新的方向。 4、 搜狗输入法不仅包含自有的领先业内的中文分词技术,更体现了搜狗搜索的重大技术突破,包括分词系统、词库形成、词频分析、新词发现、错词过滤等等。这是搜索引擎技术延伸应用的突破性成果,也是搜狗独立利用搜索引擎技术对发展人工智能做出的开创性贡献。 5、 我们相信,搜狗输入法的创意和技术突破,将享有多项知识产权专利。我们认为,google不止是对搜狗输入法词库的盗取,也是对搜狗输入法知识产权的侵犯。对于美国领先的google公司,来自尊重知识产权的国度,在中国完全无视知识产权,我们非常遗憾。 6、 我们无法接受google对搜狗输入法创意和技术突破等知识产权的侵犯。我们要求google公司:立即停止对搜狗输入法知识产权的侵犯,停止google输入法的下载和运营,否则将正式起诉google公司。 03 April 信息过载与信息分拣敬请订阅: http://feed.feedsky.com/heater 放这里做个备份,同时Spaces比较适合碎碎念了,搀杂在一起看不如订阅在Blogspot的分身。 信息过载是我考虑的前提。随着互联网的进一步发展,信息不是不够,而是太多了。但是,相比较,应该说有价值的信息的比例在降低。用户获取有效信息的难度在 增加,成本在增加。因此,以后互联网信息产品需要提供给用户的不应该是“最多最全面”的信息,而应该是“最有价值的信息”。 OK,这里涉及到的用户是怎样的用户呢?是那些要买手机,但是不知道应该买什么型号,只会在搜索引擎里面输入“手机”然后回车的大多数人。对我来说,当我不知道应该要找什么的时候,是最困惑和浪费时间的。 由 此,对用户来说,需要一个“搜索助手”,让用户知道自己真正找的是什么信息,以及通过怎样的途径可以找到自己需要的信息。现在的搜索引擎不是都有关键词过 滤的功能么,但对于大多数用户来说,他们不会用。以及,用户也不知道自己搜索什么关键词,可以返回足够数量的信息以便下一步分拣。 再看看被人诟病的Google Suggest,诚然,面对中文用户,这个产品比较失败,但是从另外一个角度上,Google Suggest给用户提供了一个提示“搜索这样的关键词,可能可以获得你需要的信息”。毕竟,做选择题比做问答题简单得多。要多让用户“选择”而避免让用户回答过多的问答题。在搜索引擎里面不断尝试输入关键词组合,实际上就是回答问答题。 以前记得Google的搜索页面上可以排除某些不相干的搜索结果,从而使搜索结果更符合要求,不知道现在怎么没有了还是因为我的浏览器是Safari而不兼容。怯以为通过人工的判断加上机器的智能分析,可以对信息完成一个更好的分拣。 那么,一个比较好用的信息分拣应该是怎样的呢?我觉得,应该要是“过滤器”方式的,用户可以进行加入相关的内容,更换关键词,删除关键词等操作,而结果需要快速显示出来,不需要每次都“提交”。同时还应该有来源的过滤,排除特定的来源,增加某些来源的权重等等。 这样的搜索方式,在垂直搜索中可能有一定的用处,同时,在社区的海量UGC搜索中也有用武之地。分析用户本身的行为,从而对其贡献的内容进行分类。 “我只需要看到我想看到的东西。” 28 March Twitter作为社区产品的特点Blogspot Down,就在这里胡乱说两句。 twitter被说是一个好东西,好在哪里?也没有看明白诸人的说辞。大体上介绍一下,twitter是一个可以让用户通过手机、IM、Web等方式发布“我在干什么”这样信息的网站。 特点:提供API,同时可以方便和Blog、IM等工具集成。 那么,为什么会有发布“我在干什么”这样信息的需求呢?要回答这个问题,首先我们可以把twitter看作是一个社会属性的Web站点,它提供了一个面向个人的发布工具,向自己的好友发布“我在干什么”的状态信息。简单说,这样的信息,只对好友有意义,对陌生人而言,意义不大。进而,现在许多社区的圈子形成后,圈子里的人会分享许多话题外的内容,包括一些琐事,这是现象。本质上,人需要和朋友交流,渴望获得关注。而通过直接通告对方的方式,未免太“二”了点,最好的方式就是写下来,贴出来,然后爱看不看去。这样,就是人需要和认为自己是值得关注的人进行交流,有点拗口……交流需要是对等的,而不是主动的邀请。 这个是需求的产生。twitter是一个不错的社区工具,当然,受语言限制,在非中文圈推行需要时间,但是相信会有很多Clone站出现的,但是,更多的来看,twitter更应该作为社区的功能块,为核心圈子用户制造沟通的条件,缺乏单独的运用模式。 商业价值?目前看不出来,但是至少可以对活跃社区气氛,提高用户粘性有一定的帮助。 26 March 社区的运维和产品设计对虚拟社区的发展来说,运维是最关键的,远远超越了技术的关键程度。很多采用模块化搭建的社区可以成功,核心就是运维。抓的点对,操作手法正确,就有好的发展。但是,是否就因此认为技术不重要呢?非也。运维的很多做法,需要通过技术手段直接体现,这样才能对用户从技术的层面予以引导,引导出需要的内容来。如果运维的很多想法无法实现,只能简单的通过单一的形式和用户进行互动,这样的运维是低效率的,肯定会遇到管理成本无限增高的瓶颈问题。我一直认为:维基百科般纯粹的自组织是不行的。 可以根据运维的要求,快速灵活改变产品部署,可以成就一个好社区。 Blogspot down了。。。-____-||| 06 February 拥抱weblog时代网站在说访问量,访问量低啊,不是一般的低,怎么把访问量提高呢?其实从道理上说,应该是很简单的事情,读者需要什么,我们就给什么,他满足需要后,下次还会来,因为他知道自己在这里可以满足自己的需要。乃至于加入收藏夹、订阅Feed等等,都是如此。搜索引擎是使世界变平的巨大力量,而作为媒体网站,如果还沉浸在旧思维中,则可能带来杀身之祸。
用户上网,期待看到的不是公关稿,而是活生生的人。比如,采访稿件,访谈,观点,评论⋯⋯用户期待那些专业人士可以从自己专业的角度对业界动态进行点评。比如产品,用户关心的不是产品的技术参数,而是用过的人觉得这个东西怎么样,是否可以满足自己的要求。比如新闻,用户关心的不是这个事情本身,而是这个事情的前因后果,对今后的产业发展的影响,对自己的影响等等⋯⋯ 上面的是废话。weblog时代,就是可以让各个方面的专家都有机会发表一方观点,专家借独到的观点成名,而网站,依靠组织这些观点生存。weblog时代,不是让网站把所有的编辑记者埋在文章下,就给一个“计世网编译报道”,而是应当让读者可以切实体会到文章背后的思考的大脑,这,是品牌的灵魂所在。 这么简单的道理,为什么执行起来那么复杂呢?文章更新数量多,一定可以带来访问量的大幅增长么?一天产业内的新闻可以有多少啊,挖到头也就是那么一些了,再细分一下,每个专业领域内能出多少新闻?仅仅是这些,还都是转载自其他的网站,无法做到新、快、全,如何领跑IT媒体? 哎⋯⋯叹口气⋯⋯ 05 February 用Safari来代替Google Reader我是一个Google Reader的初级用户,说初级,其实我的Feed大部分都是好友的Blog,而并不是属于那种订阅无数Feed的Heavy User。
前面说了我尝试了抓虾,以及,又稍稍体验了一下Bloglines,具体的体会按下不表,下面说一下今天的重头戏,Safari。 自Tiger开始,也就是2005年4月发布的Mac OS X 10.4,Safari升级到了2.0版,支持RSS浏览和订阅了,只是,我一直不习惯于使用“收藏夹”,对Safari的这个功能也不是经常用,一般都只是偶尔点击地址栏右侧的蓝色RSS按钮来看看RSS的渲染情况。 一直以为Safari说的支持RSS,也仅仅是可以在浏览器端查看RSS源,以及可以在书签中订阅RSS,察看更新情况。于是,作为Gfans的我,义无返顾选择了Google Reader。直到最近,确切说也就是3天前,我才发现Safari独特、强大的RSS订阅能力。 前戏做完,下面进入正题。本文面对的是Mac用户,用Windows的,一边凉快去吧哈哈。 Safari的RSS阅读功能就是地址栏右侧的蓝色“RSS”按钮,通过点击RSS按钮可以直接阅读页面上的RSS源,但是如果有多个源可以选择的时候,我也不知道Safari选择哪个来阅读了,所以这个时候最好自己选择合适的源来打开。 Safari的RSS源管理是用“书签”来进行的。包括有书签栏、书签菜单,以及书签本身。推荐使用书签栏,这样可以非常方便的在浏览的时候查看自己订阅的源的更新情况。 点击书签栏上的“显示全部书签”按钮,就可以进入书签管理器,这个时候可以在左侧精选中选中书签栏,然后在右侧新建自己的Feeds分类。这样,立刻可以在书签栏上看到新建立的分类目录。需要添加订阅很简单,打开一个源,然后按住源前面的图表,拖曳到书签栏的目录中就可以了。 这样出来的结果,就是书签栏上的书签文件夹后面可以显示出源的更新文章数量,点击书签栏上的书签打开对应的源进行阅读,然后可以很方便选择摘要的长度、搜索等等。 还是有点不方便不是么?我要看最新的文章,而不是一个一个源打开来阅读。OK,打开书签管理器,然后把书签文件夹后面的“自动点按”选中,这样我只要点分类的书签文件夹,就可以在当前的窗口中自动打开下面的所有源。这个很方便啊,就相当于把分类的源烧制在一起了。好,现在对我来说,Safari已经可以完全替代Google Reader了。很关键的一点是:离线的时候我也可以通过Safari看到预下载的源。这样,我使用的是一个“半在线”的RSS Reader,使用了默认的浏览器,不借助第三方工具。 下面,我要找一些第三方工具,看看OPML导入/导出,以及有没有更好的管理、分享工具。貌似记得有个美味书签的同步工具。 非常感谢您的阅读,非常欢迎您向我进行推荐。 EOF |
