The "deep web"

by smays.com

Michael K Bergman, an American academic and entrepreneur, is one of the foremost authorities on this other internet. In the late 90s he undertook research to try to gauge its scale. "I remember saying to my staff, 'It's probably two or three times bigger than the regular web,"' he remembers. "But the vastness of the deep web . . . completely took my breath away. We kept turning over rocks and discovering things."

In 2001 he published a paper on the deep web that is still regularly cited today. "The deep web is currently 400 to 550 times larger than the commonly defined world wide web," he wrote. "The deep web is the fastest growing category of new information on the internet … The value of deep web content is immeasurable … internet searches are searching only 0.03% … of the [total web] pages available."

Why the Internet?

by smays.com

"Rationality can't explain our obsession with the Internet. The need to build the Internet comes from something inside us, something programmed, something we can't resist." - God's Debris

Apple's Jonathan Ive: "Undesigned"

I particularly liked the segment with Apple's Jonathan Ive. And filmmaker Gary Hustwit's advice: "Don't go to film school. Just buy a camera and shoot what fascinates you"

If I must be in The System, I'd like to look my best

by smays.com

Sometimes I forget --just for half a second-- that I (somewhat sloppily) photoshopped this image. "How nice that they let him keep his shades and fez for the mug shot."

I also wonder about the home-made "how tall am I" thing glued to the wall. There must be companies that sell these. Did someone in the Dept. of Corrections decide they could save a few dollars by making one?
This image was brought to mind by a visit to http://nicolasmoerman.com/
