Continuing in missing the big
picture for the small details is this quote I found in a rather long
article (via CamWorld) about beating Microsoft:
… its war with Microsoft. AOL (owned by the parent company of
this magazine) …

Funny, I thought AOL owned Time/Warner, not the other way
around. Now, it might be that the reporter is ignorant of who owns who, but
I wonder if this isn't the feeling around Time/Warner—they bought AOL and
not the other way around.
Or is it that AOL is owned by AOL Time/Warner, which also owns Business 2.0? Or
could it be that no one knows who owns who but does it really matter anyway?
I think I'm getting a headache.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
