History of podcasts
quot;Dave Winer left our meeting and created the
enclosure element to the RSS distribution
format he had developed earlier, allowing a file
to be 'attached' to an RSS entry by means of a
url pointing to the file. For the next 4 years
we spent plenty of time evangelizing the
enclosure element and it's promised power,
but never really found the spark to get a
movement going.quot; -Adam Curry

25 Days That Changed Everything

September 9, 1986, through May 24, 1991
Compaq Out-Clones IBM
September 9, 1986
Read For the first few years of the PC era, IBM faced little challenge from other DOS computer
makers. But when Intel bumped up the processing power of its CPUs from 16 bits to 32 bits--
a standard that still dominates today--Compaq surprised Big Blue by beating it to market with
a competitively priced ($6499!) computer carrying Intel's new 386 chip. Suddenly, IBM could
no longer set the pace--or the price--for PCs.
Think Microsoft Builds an Office
August 1, 1989 Few folks remember that Microsoft Office made its debut as a $500 Macintosh suite containing three
already popular programs (Word, Excel, and PowerPoint), and that it lacked the OLE data format, spelling checker, and
Visual Basic scripting that tie Office applications together now. The Windows version came a year later, and many
experts now view Office--not Windows--as Microsoft's most productive cash cow.
Discuss Desktops Become Darkrooms
February 19, 1990
Frustrated by his Mac Plus's inability to show grayscale levels for his doctoral thesis on
digital image processing, Thomas Knoll wrote a subroutine to simulate the effect. His brother
John, an employee at Industrial Light and Magic, got him to turn it into a program that the
brothers called ImagePro, but Silicon Valley took little interest until John demoed it to Adobe.
Launched on this date, the retitled app is now so closely identified with digital imaging that
people use it as a verb, as in, quot;I'll Photoshop out the wart.quot;
Windows Hits the Big 3.0
May 22, 1990
The first few releases of Windows failed to catch fire. But by adding both virtual memory and
memory protection, Windows 3.0 turned PCs into capable multitasking machines--and a dea
with Apple finally allowed overlapping windows (Windows 2.0 could only tile them). Microsoft
sold about 10 million copies of Windows 3.0, establishing Windows as the dominant
operating system among personal computers.
