A howtoforge.com article on installing mod_cband bandwidth limiting module for Apache 2. Great! I've been waiting for some bandwidth limiting module to step up (and for someone to write a nice clear installation article.) This is one of the things I feel like I lost by going with Apache 2 over 1.3 - the older version had much better bandwidth limiting modules. But hopefully that is no longer the case. This gets moved way up towards the top of the list.

Supposedly Nokia is releasing an S60 Symbian port of the Apache webserver, along with a gateway that will allow for the addressing of a mobile webserver with a regular web address (URI.) Wow. To me that's some sort of geek litmus test - if you really want to run a webserver on your phone you are a geek. Or at least a web geek. Sign me up. I want a Symbian phone so bad, but the new models take so long to reach the U.S. I will never understand the wireless carriers here. You couldn't move any more slowly if you tried.

I've written about Joi Ito before. He seems like a very interesting guy. It's sort of hard to figure out exactly what he does - I guess mostly because he does a lot of different things. But they add up to him being a very influential figure in the computer scene. He's an expert networker. He puts people together with other people, and money together with projects, and just generally seems to make things happen.

Interestingly, I never knew about his Tim Leary connection, but here is a post of his on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of T.L.'s death, which explains just how important that relationship was.
