I thought the Scoble/Swisher debate of last week (or 9 internet months ago) declared Web 2.0 over and we're now in something else, but no one can agree on the name. May as well be giving us way of adapting to the enlightenment or the industrial revolution.

People always look at me funny when I say his with the Montreal pronunciation. I like it.

Matthew: I never declared Web 2.0 over, just that I hope we don't call what's now/next the same stupid name. The web is not a version.

Ah, I thought naming the new king meant the old king was dead (See Kim Jong Il's third son)

Yea, no one is releasing versions of the web. It is evolving organically.

good article but what's with the douchey frame from Alltop? Seriously? Framing other people's content? I thought we were past that. Even Digg gave up on that strategy.

"The problem was a vulnerability to something called a "Session Fixation Attack." The gist of it is this. Services supporting OAuth let their users pull data into other websites for reuse around the web. In order to do this securely, the 3rd party site has to ask the original site for permission. This might be a new little website asking permission to import your Gmail contacts or to post to Twitter through their site instead of Twitter.com.

The killer new feature is a single menu option, under "Tools," that scans your entire music collection and grabs the relevant album art from Last.fm's web site. That alone makes the oft-improved, awesomely extensible music manager worth a look. But most of the big improvements in this release have been under the hood, so to speak: We made some substantial gains this release: * Reduced memory use with a large library by 40% * Cut CPU usage during playback by half * Fixed playback memory leaks * Made library caching configurable * Added batching to the media importer, reducing memory use by 60% * Reduced Mac download size 45% * Fewer Crashes: We've worked hard to identify and fix ten of the most common crashes in Songbird.
