...Podolsky sees this exponential growth in computer time behind what has been perceived as the ephemeral public life of RSIs. "In the past," she pointed out, "it was a bigger deal in grad schools." While the RSI Action Group, an undergraduate organization, was founded this year, its graduate school analog is already four years old. And now that many undergraduates are already dismissing the disease as old news, Podolsky reports meeting first-years who are recovering from RSIs developed in high school. Perhaps the sudden rise and fall of RSI was simply a measure of the rapid decrease...
...should invest in professorships in Women's Studies rather than the Radcliffe Institute. The Afro-American Studies department is known for Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Cornel West, William Julius Wilson and other high-octane academics. It is not known for the W.E.B.

That's where Sony's recent introduction of digital Hi8 cameras comes in, I explained to my wife. The cameras are backwards compatible and can play 8-mm or Hi8 tapes.

The high-end unit, which features a nifty still-image feature and comes bundled...
...Digital8 may be lost on us. But the benefits of digital video cameras are still compelling. You can create a huge variety of special effects and generally enjoy far more control over how images look. Also, digital tapes are much easier to edit on a PC; an analog tape first must be converted to digital, which is cumbersome. Perhaps the best news is this: for the next year, Sony is expected to have the only Digital8s on the market. That may well put pressure on Canon, Sharp, JVC and Panasonic to drop the prices of their standard digital cameras...
