...computer’s first days out of the box: a simpler time, when she hurtled through her self-test; when the nifty “Available Disk Space” piechart showed seven gigabytes of untrammeled roominess; when windows and menus sprang from her toolbars like a great splash in a clear lake; when your desktop sat empty and content, like a mid-day showing of Serendipity. What is it, then, that drives us to engage in unprotected interface with these ill-intentioned download sites? Certainly this irresponsible behavior is not a means to some kind of useful...
After watching ShuttleGirl co-creators Anthony Delvecchio ‘01 and Jason R.P. Karamchandani ‘02 create a splash on campus last year with their techno-savvy key to the unreadable shuttle schedule, University Operation Services decided they needed to get in on the innovating.

Instead of the regular text, a few times per show, a video clip featuring a member of the four-person crew will pop up on the screen. They’re cute, they’re perky, and, best of all, one went to Harvard...
...Scotland has no music industry per se. Everything in terms of the industry goes through London, which causes it to be quite difficult for Scottish musicians to really garner any national attention in the United Kingdom. Certainly when I was 15, it was only once you made a big splash locally that the record labels ever took note. I think Scottish musicians work in isolation a lot of the time. Consequently, that allows a certain lack of self-consciousness...
