swap research shows that self is a trick of the mind | Science | The Guardian/abr/ Brain scientists
have succeeded in fooling people into thinking they are inside the body of another person or a
plastic dummy. The out-of-body experience - which is surprisingly easy to induce - will help
researchers to understand how the human brain constructs a sense of physical self. The research may
also lead to practical applications such as more intuitive remote control of robots, treatments for
phantom limb pain in amputee patients and possible treatments for anorexia./li lia

I'm porting an old legacy Mac OS 9 application to Leopard, and am trying to build an interface in a
window, using InterfaceBuilder and a NIB file. The palette of controls from which I can drag
controls contains a horizontal scroll bar, but not a vertical one.
How can I place a vertical scroll bar into my window as a control? If I try to change the size of a
horizontal scroll bar, IB won't allow its height to be changed.
I'm mystified. Why is it so hard to create a vertical scroll bar? IB's help files are of no ...
help.

When a company called EMG Technology filed a patent
lawsuit against Apple last week over “the way the iPhone navigates the Internet,”
it had the stench of a patent troll. The suit was filed a month after the patent was issued in
the Eastern District of Texas, known as troll country among patent attorneys because the courts
there tend to rule favorably for patent owners.
EMG Technology is based in Los Angeles, and appears to have been formed solely for the purpose of
filing this lawsuit. One of the inventors named on the patent and EMG “managing
member” Elliot Gottfurcht is a Los Angeles real estate developer. Apple, of course, is also
based in California.
Then there are the actual claims of patent No. 7,441,196.
With the help of M-CAM, an underwriter of
patent insurance, I uncovered some patents (listed below) that pre-date EMG’s and that
might be considered prior art. Apple’s lawyers should take a look at them. Some of them are
even owned by Apple. Others are owned by IBM, Microsoft, Sony, and Sun Microsystems.
Before we get to those, what about EMG’s patent? The claims in that patent describe the
ability to manipulate, zoom, scroll, and view Web content on devices other than a laptop. But the
central and primary claim has to do with a way to convert HTML Web pages into XML data that can
then be displayed partially on different devices, including mobile phones.
I’m no lawyer or patent expert, but my initial reaction was that these seem like overly
broad claims (they cover everything from TVs to Web appliances to cell phones) with lots of
precedents. It is very difficult to display an entire Webpage on a small screen, so engineers
have figured out various ways to display parts of those pages.
EMG does not specify in its suit which of the patent’s 76 claims it thinks Apple is
infringing on. But in the press release announcing the lawsuit, EMG’s lawyer highlights the
claims covering “the display of Internet content reformatted from HTML to XML on mobile
devices” and “technology for manipulating a region of the screen for zooming and
scrolling.”
I asked M-CAM to run EMG’s patent through its Patently Obvious
database, which compares claims across millions of patents. And they came up with 250 instances
of possible prior art not mentioned in the EMG patent. When an inventor files a patent, he is
required to list all other patents you are aware of that could have an impact on your claims. One
way to get a patent application past an overworked patent examiner is to list a ton of related
prior art, but omit the critical ones that could invalidate the patent.
One key patent omitted by EMG is No 6,535,896:
“Systems, methods and computer program products for tailoring web page content in hypertext
markup language format for display within pervasive computing devices using extensible markup
language tools.” It is owned by IBM and was filed on January 29, 1999, which is prior to
the November 15, 1999 date that is applicable for the EMG patent. The abstract for the IBM patent
describes what it does this way:
Content portions of a requested Web page are converted to an XML format and then modified
using an XML content-tailoring tool. Other content portions of the Web page are masked so as to
be “hidden” and are, thus, not converted to XML format. The masked portions of the
Web page are then unmasked, combined with the modified content portions, and transmitted to a
client device for display therewithin.
That sounds very similar to parts of the first claim of the EMG patent:
1. A method of navigating the Internet, comprising: displaying on-line content accessed via
the Internet, the on-line content reformatted from a webpage in a hypertext markup language
(HTML) format into an extensible markup language (XML) format to generate a sister site, . . .
navigation options to change between layers of the simplified navigation interface from general
to more specific in each deeper layer; receiving a user selection of one of the navigation
options; forwarding the selected navigation option across the internet to a server providing the
simplified navigation interface; receiving a next deeper navigation layer of the simplified
navigation interface corresponding to the selected navigation option
How did EMG’s patent get approved by the U.S. Patent Office? This just illustrates a bigger
problem with the patent system. Since the budget of the Patent Office, which is derived from
filing and maintenance fees, is tied directly to how many patents it approves, it has an economic
incentive to approve as many as possible. This system needs to be changed. (Anyone in on
Obama’s team reading this?).
Below are some other prior art that Apple’s lawyers might want to take a look at (and some
quaint patent art that accompanied EMG’s filing).

Google recently announced an extension framework for Chrome, adding the ability to run extra software in the
browser. It’s a feature many had long considered missing from Google’s browser
— and one that has been key to Firefox’s popularity. But with the Chrome extensions, Google is doing much more
than just playing catch-up with Firefox. An extensible browser is the missing piece of a much
bigger puzzle: By tying its App
Engine to Google Apps (more details in the App Engine blog), the company has delivered a complete ecosystem
for cloud ISVs.
All software ecosystems need four basic things:
- A platform — A complete cloud platform is distributed, ubiquitous, and
works both offline and on. App Engine lets developers build the server-side portion and not worry
about scaling. And Chrome’s extensions let coders build a cross-platform user interface
that leverages the Gears framework to work even when disconnected.
- Rich APIs — All those apps can use authentication, chat, OpenSocial,
calendaring, Checkout, search, mapping, and other Google services. That makes it easy to build
rich apps with familiar components.
-
Administration — Google Apps lets an administrator purchase, provision
and manage permissions for an app. Deployment is
easy: Once you’ve found the app you want in the Google Marketplace, just click the “add” button, then install the Chrome extension.
- A market — Google Apps has 10 million active users and is signing up some 3,000 new companies a day, according to Matthew Glotzbach,
product management director of Google Enterprise.
With the Chrome extensions, Google has made it possible for ISVs to launch ready-made niche
applications for the cloud. It’s the same thing Facebook did with its API and Salesforce
did with AppExchange; in Google’s case, ISVs now have a turnkey channel that can reach
small businesses easily.
The ability to let Apps customers buy third-party software isn’t quite ready yet.
“Now, Google Apps administrators can also deploy several new Google applications hosted on
App Engine to members of their organizations with Google Apps Labs,” said Pete Koomen,
product manager for App Engine.
So for example, a dentist’s office could use Google’s Docs suite for word processing
and spreadsheets, but also buy third-party apps from Marketplace — one for patient
scheduling, and another for invoicing. They’d all work smoothly together, online and off,
using the Apps/Docs/Chrome ecosystem.
With Google looking to find revenues beyond advertising, monetizing those 10 million accounts
has got to be a big priority. Selling third-party applications can’t be far off. Of course,
these apps will work with any browser. But they’ll likely work better with Chrome and its
extensions.

Le service de stockage en ligne Windows Live SkyDrive rafraîchit son interface, mais surtout
augmente son offre de stockage en ligne gratuite de 5 a 25 Gigas. Il y a de
l’activité du côté la division Windows Live de Microsoft depuis quelque
temps. Il y a un mois ils ont ouvert un peu plus au grand publique Mesh,
leur service de synchronisation entre plusieurs ordinateurs et maintenant c’est au tour de
SkyDrive de faire un grand pas en avant.
Cette offre gratuite de SkyDrive viendra sans doute bouleverser l’univers du stockage en
ligne. Plusieurs joueurs tels que Box.net ou DropBox tentent difficilement de se tailler une
place et voilà que l’annonce d’aujourd’hui de Microsoft vient leur
couper l’herbe sous le pied. Bien que SkyDrive offre 25 Gigas d’espace disque, vous
ne pouvez pas charger des fichiers qui dépassent 50 Mb. Malgré cette limitation, ce
service peut très bien servir d’espace de stockage pour vos photos, documents ou
fichiers MP3.
La nouvelle interface de Skydrive est plus intuitive et offre de nombreuses
fonctionnalités. Vous pouvez créer le nombre de dossiers que vous
désirez, partager vos fichiers et photos avec un groupe d’invité et ouvrir
certains répertoires pour les rendre publiques. Si vous cherchez un endroit gratuit pour
stocker vos photos ou encore partager des fichiers et répertoires avec un groupe de
travail, Windows Live SkyDrive est sans doute l’une des meilleures
solutions actuellement disponibles.
