It has been at least 4 years since I first used online payment in Shanghai. There were always dissatisfactions and "exceptions" either in the system, or credit card payment, or delivery. Today, my experience to book a ticket on CTRIP, Pay with China Merchant Bank credit card, and claim e-ticket from China Eastern Airlines were perfect. I vote it as the best ecommerce experience I have ever had so far. I am excited about the improvement in online stores, credit...
Source favicon22:14 说说百度百科的版权声明 » 刻录事
Baidu标识中熊掌里的那个du老被我认为是毒,变成了百毒百科,不知道topku是不是建议给改改,换中文好了。 关于百度百科,词条上这么写: “百度百科,一部开放的网络百科全书,每个人都可以自由访问并参与撰写和编辑,分享及奉献自己所知的知识,所有人将其共同编写成一部完整的百科全书,并使其不断更新完善。” 正如他还是不懂 里说的,太PR了。没有一点词条的样子。不过没关系,相信它会是一个演进的历史,记录历史,这也正是wiki的魅力之一。同时,在历史的边上画些小圈圈,也是蛮有意思的事情: “百度百科,一部始终在书写和生长着的百科全书,任何注册百度的用户,都可以在尊守法律法规、坚持四项基本原则、尊重百度百科管理规定和无义务通告管理的情况下,复制、修改、撰写别人或者你自己的所知。这是一个自永乐大典之后的伟大创举,这里将海纳百川的收录各类知识。” “百度百科,并非公益项目,也非民间自组织项目,而是百度三马车中最后出镜的一辆,从此,它将和百度贴吧,百度知道一起,成为每个人获得所需信息的无所不包的知识库。” 呵呵,圈在我自己这里,没人会来修改的。 言规正传,学学百度百科的版权说明: “百度百科的用户在百度百科上发布的内容引用自适用CC协议(“创作共用”协议,保证作者署名权。不得用于商业目的。保证作品完整性。” 谢谢百度百科对创作共用的推广,不过美中不足的是没有给URL加上超链接,是不是好人做到底,把这个超链接加上,另外,给创作共用和CC协议也加上对应的URL,要不链接到百科中的词条也可以。 不过在第8条中,百度从一幅彬彬有礼的绅士突然变成了恶狠狠的威胁人的悍夫:  对于用户发表到百度百科上可公开获取区域的任何内容,用户同意百度在全世界范围内具有免费的、永久性的、不可撤销的、非独家的和完全再许可的权利和许可,以使用、复制、修改、改编、出版、翻译、据以创作衍生作品、传播、表演和展示此等内容 (整体或部分),和/或将此等内容编入当前已知的或以后开发的其他任何形式的作品、媒体或技术中 ;用户同意百度百科的其他用户对其发表的可公开获取区域的任何内容进行任意修改和删除。 既然自适用创作共用的协议,那么百度首先应当尊重用户的这个协议,不能又来强迫用户放弃自己本来应该具有的权利。之所以这样,我想还是百度公司的心态和心术的问题。 不错,百度百科是百度创建,但是内容却是来自用户,你提供一个平台的同时,用户也作了回报。这本来是互利的事情。现在倒好,百度还有其他很多网络平台提供商认为提供了平台,用户就必须放弃这个平台中所创的内容,这明显的不公平。 这就好比是造纸厂有如下声明:凡是在我厂生产的纸张上创作的内容,其版权与我厂gong其版权与我长共享。 造纸厂没这么做吧,可为什么百度们敢这么说呢? wikipedia之所以能有今天,很重要的原因之一在于她们“尊重、平等、合作”的精神。百度百科想要成功,首先必须把这种精神建立起来,让人们自愿的分享知识,而不是为了积分去堆叠文字。 相关阅读:CNBlog:百度百科正式上线  注:以上引用部分来自百度百科。

Source favicon21:27 Back on the map » Official Google Blog




Last October, we merged our local search site with Google Maps. At that time, we thought it was most appropriate to name the integrated product "Google Local" to emphasize the broad searching capabilities of the site and that it was much more than an ordinary mapping site. But we underestimated how much people loved Google Maps. Many have continued to refer to the site by the previous name, and many have explicitly asked us to "bring back Google Maps." Since it's most important to us to give our users what they want, we've decided to change the name officially to Google Maps.



Does this mean that local search is no longer important to Google? Absolutely not! Google Maps continues to have the killer combination of maps, driving directions, and local business search. And local search has become a fundamental part of the Google search experience; it's now embedded within a number of our products, including Google web search, Google Earth, Google SMS, and Google Mobile.

Source favicon09:29 Wiki之郁闷 » Blog on 27th Floor
百度百科上线了,是件好事,虽然有些条目已经锁定不能再编辑。但这件好事还是让我感觉很郁闷。为什么?

因为好人执照。我们知道这世上已经有一个很好的在线百科全书,Wikipedia,可是我们不能正常查看,因为它没有执照。而现在有执照的人就可以再搞一个,我却没有心情去为它贡献。

这世界上最宝贵的莫过于知识,知识中最宝贵的不是唯一真理,而是其多样性和可检验性。知识对人类社会的影响也有限,并不是在书上报上写一句大象是短鼻子它就真的短了;可如果这世上真有短鼻子象(猪?)的话,也不可能你说象都是长鼻子它们就真的都变长了。有些人就是高估知识的影响力,如果多印书能促进祖国统一的话,那世界和平也早几百年就实现了。

Source favicon06:49 Easier web page creation » Official Google Blog




My mother wanted a site for her law practice that potential clients would find when they Googled her. My professor needed a place on the web where he could post assignments and readings for Psych 131. My friend Casey was excited about creating an online encyclopedia of Big Lebowski trivia.



All of them wanted simple web pages that looked great, but none of them wanted to take the time to learn HTML, wrangle with complex tools or shell out cash for a designer. They managed to cajole me, their nerdy technically-savvy friend, into becoming the neighborhood techie -- but what if you don't know one? Why isn't making a web page as fast and easy as using a word processor?



These frustrations stayed with me when I started working at a California company full of friendly neighborhood techies that encourages its employees to devote 20% of their time to scratching their intellectual itches. So I gathered a team of engineers and designers passionate about using their 20% time to make it easy to publish useful, attractive web pages.



After many months of focusing on designing a product that our friends and families would enjoy, and politely coaxing web browsers into doing things they were never meant to do, we're happy that "Google Page Creator" is now part of the Google Labs family. Labs is Google's technology playground, a place where we can experiment with new services that have us excited, but that aren't all grown up yet. We rely on constructive feedback from early users to help us nurture these experiments from intriguing ideas into mature products.



Google Page Creator is just a small step in helping people get their words, pictures and ideas on to the web. But it's nice to know that when my friends want to share their experiences from a Venetian monastery, or coworkers feel compelled to give their appropriately-named bowling team a web presence, I know where to point them.

Source favicon01:21 Keeping up with recent research » Official Google Blog


As a graduate student at the University of Maryland years ago, I took an interesting course on quantum computing. The topic intrigued me and, from time to time, I like to go back and and see what is new in the area (for all I know, Google may some day need quantum computers to extend search into the intergalactic domain :-) ).

Today we're launching a feature of Google Scholar which will make it easier for researchers to keep up with recent research. From quantum computing to copper binding in prion protein. It's not just a plain sort by date, but rather we try to rank recent papers the way researchers do, by looking at the prominence of the author's and journal's previous papers, how many citations it already has, when it was written, and so on. Look for the new link on the upper right for "Recent articles" -- or switch to "All articles" for the full list.

Scholarly endeavors are about learning what has already been done and building on it. We hope this feature will help researchers worldwide learn from and build on the latest advances.

Update: Clarified new feature by adding new sentence to end of second paragraph.
Source favicon01:19 胡布会后,现实点看中美关系 » 闾丘露薇 ROSE GARDEN
现在这个时间,在华盛顿,由美国美中商会等团体联合,为胡锦涛举办的晚宴应该刚刚结束,这个晚宴有九百人参加,包括了美国大公司的负责人,学者以及政界人士。这些年来,每次中国领导人访问美国,这些团体都会趁他们在华盛顿,完成了双边活动之后,举办这样的一次晚餐会,而中国方面当然也非常重视这样的机会,因为毕竟华盛顿是美国的政治中心,而且有这麽多的美国有影响力的人坐在一起。
 
这席胡布会之后并没有举行共同记者会,只是让记者在他们会谈的椭圆形办公室,在他们会面完了之后,有一个拍摄的时间,通常只有几分钟,不过除了两位领导人各自陈述一段会议成果之外,中美记者各有一个提问的机会。当然,提问的机构,事先大家都已经安排好。不过这麽多的媒体采访,能够进入椭圆形办公室的媒体不对,具体的数量当然是由中美两国的负责礼宾的人员事先商讨,上一次总理温家宝访问美国,正好是我和我的摄影师被抽中承担香港pool的工作(也就是说,我们代表所有的香港媒体进入拍摄,然后出来再分给大家),终于有机会看到这个办公室的真面目。不过这样的拍摄提问,和记者会是由本质区别的,真正的记者会,是两位元首站在台上,台下坐满了记者,就像上次布什访问中国的那次,在人民大会堂。
 
上次在这个椭圆形办公室里,面对中国领导人,布什态度明确,点名批评了陈水扁,不过这一次,在台湾问题上,他只是用一句话带过,他说,他向胡锦涛保证,我们不会改变立场,然后停顿一下,加上一句,我不支持台湾独立,i do not surport independence for Taiwan.不过和上次不同,上次在白宫南草坪上的欢迎词里面,并没有提到台湾问题,但是这次,他在讲话中重申美国坚持一个中国的原则,胡锦涛也在他的讲话里面给与了回应,重申中国坚持用和平方式解决台湾问题,但是也决不允许任何人用任何方式把台湾从中国分裂出去。有评论认为,布什这次这样做,是一开始就为美国的台湾立场定调,避免进一步的延伸,但是可以看到,胡锦涛则是寸步不让。不单单在致词的时候,还有在见记者的时候,不断强调中国的立场。不过在胡布会之后,台湾方面的反应,则是认为,美国只是重申了一场,并没有新意。就连大陆的一些学者也认为,布什的这样的表示,应该没有达到大陆方面的期望。
 
正如昨天我所说,对于美国来说,对于台湾问题并不感兴趣,他们最关心的,还是中国在伊朗,朝鲜核问题上的立场。华盛顿邮报记者采访的这次胡布会的大标题是,布什敦促中国协助解决伊朗,朝鲜争端,小标题是,在白宫会面中,领导人们讨论人权,台湾问题。而在长长的报道当中,很大的篇幅谈到了伊朗朝鲜问题,当然还有长长的篇幅,谈到了这次发生在胡锦涛致词时的小插曲,有美国官员事后表示,布什在和胡锦涛会面的时候对此表示歉意,他说,THIS WAS UNFORTUNATE, AND I AM SORRY THIS HAPPENED.而对于这次事件,有前负责美国东亚事务的官员认为,美国政府应该对此感到非常的惭愧,因为大家都知道,这一届的美国政府是非常擅长控制人群的,而这样的结果,则可能会造成中国对于美国的怀疑。
 
这次胡布会,可以说是大部分是在各自表述立场,但是在中美贸易逆差问题上,可以看到,布什对与中方的坦诚和重视相当的满意,他用"HEARTEND"来表示自己的感受。布什说,中国在国际社会上是重要的声音,可以说是对中国影响力的承认,但是从另一方面,也显示出美国认为,中国应该因此而承担自己的责任。就在胡布会前,美国官方有一场私下的吹风会,可以看看他们是如何定义中国的,美国官员说,
 
20年来,中国取得了令人赞叹的经济发展,如今,中国人民享有充分的经济自由。令人遗憾的是,中国的政治自由未能跟进。"
 
“胡锦涛的这次访问是"胡主席和中国代表团与美国人民直接交流的重要机会。......此行是介绍中国目前情况并向美国人民说明中国想往哪个方向发展的一个机会"

“过去25年来,中国已从一个"相当自行其是的国家"演变成"意识到自己负有国际责任的国家" 

负有国际责任,也就是说,美国希望中国做更多的事情,这意味着是最终按照美国的意志,还是中国能够坚持继续走自己发展的道路。看待中美关系,合作是必然的,但是在合作的背后还有很多东西,我想不是那样的简单吧。
