<font color=green>GG conference [That's George Gilder]...Big but interesting read:http://community.metamarkets.com/thread.jhtml?b=90&id=17190 All about where it all goes...optics, storage, competing islands of optics and data with data duplicated across service provider islands [new idea for me]. Less universality and inherent competition. Typical of how the world seems to work. Mqurice PS: <Silicon Investor is another site with a full-time cyber cop, Bob Zumbrunnen. Like other investment sites, SI does not want to scare off participants by suggesting that Big Brother is watching. Rather than refer to Zumbrunnen as a cop, SI calls him its community administrator. Like monitors for other sites, Zumbrunnen's role is to enforce his site's terms of use. Generally, he works in response to complaints. At the topic forum that is the scene of the alleged violation, he reads posts about which members are complaining. Since messages are often replies to one another, he reviews all of the posts involved. [Ed: Not in my experience he doesn't - arrives late to the scene and shoots a few victims, upsetting things even more] "Each. ..can be traced backward like a thread,"> I was going to put the image of SI Bob here, but it seems to have disappeared...
