Apple's iPod GUI Patent wegen Microsoft vorerst abgelehnt

Apple hat ein Patent auf die Benutzeroberfläche des iPod und das schnelle Auffinden von Musik mitels Spannbäumen beantragt.
Das ist nun vorerst abgelehnt worden da Microsoft 5 Monate vorher ein ähnliches Patent über Musiktitel beantragt hat. Apple hat den iPod aber noch früher, 1 Jahr vor dem Patentantrag verkauft.
Deshalb ist das Patent von Microsoft meiner Meinung nach nicht patentfähig. Neue Ideen dürfen nich bereits von jemand anderen aufgestellt oder gar verkauft worden sein um Neu zu sein.

Google Maps auch für Europa Google hat ihren Kartographie Dienst mit Satellitenphotos weltweit zur Verfügung gestellt. Zwar konnte man bisher auch Google Maps von überall her aufrufen.

MSN shows the most intriguing MSN Spaces in an Album

"Did you know ?" for the Web.
MSN has discovered that it's good to pick some interesting Blogs from the vast mass and present them regularly. Blogger.com has made this step sucseccfully in a linkblog as a sidebar for writers.
Microsoft presents it in a fullblown, expensive looking storyline and a Latest 100 list. It's fun to discover new spaces. "Explore" your choices, but it doesn't have to be with the Explorer.

Technorati Searchlet & JavaScript filtered out

Below you can see what remained from 15 Lines of Html Form code: Technorati search this blog all blogs Apparently MSN filters active content from the Blog to prevent attacks on your browser or maybe external extendability. Anyway you can search my Blog b clocking on the MSN Spaces Logo and hoping it is indexed too.

PS: little Update: try to search search in MSN . I didn't know that search could be sexual content. Oh wait you could search a mating partner. I mean a ______ partner. MSN Spaces wrote a short Comment on it too.

Swiss Map fed by XMLHttpRequest

Wow! Ever wanted to see JavaScript and XMLHttpRequest in action ?
This map of Switzerland is even hotter than Google's Google Suggest Beta. It zooms in from the whole country up to buildings and cars. Great satellite photos.
Thank you Simon Willson and Harry for pointing me to this wonderful example.

Happy New Year with Trackbacks

I wish all of you a Happy New Year! MSN Spaces is really neat. I didn't find a single drawback. Permalinks, Trackback, WYSIWYG, even Categories all state of the Art. As long as it stays without Advertising it will be very cool. Please look at this Weblog by Mike Torres , a Lead Program Manager of MSN Spaces. Thank You Girls & Guys for this piece of wonderful Technology.
