Google just announced that you will be able to upload any file to Google Docs.
Looking at the prices of additional storage (your default 7GB from gmail stay free), shows that a Gigabyte costs around 25c (US) per year. When storing 50 TB or less with Amazon S3 you pay 15c (US) per GB per month for the storage only (that is 45 USD for 25GB a year) plus fees for every POST or GET.
Google Code Blog has an article but no API open to everyone yet.
Joi Ito had an interesting talk about the stack the internet is and was built on and why the Creative Commons should be the next building block of this stack.
Mr. Ito also mentioned that one of the reasons he moved to Dubai is that “the Middle East and Africa are areas where we [the creative commons] can get some adoption of the Licenses”. In a completly unrelated event did the wikileaks.org speakers Julian Assange and Daniel Schmitt at the 26C3 mention that they are strongly supporting Iceland to become the ‘Switzerland of Bits’ [as in providing a vault for the people's data] – legislative for that is already on the way. As Linux Pro Magazine writes: “As a result, the WikiLeaks team developed the plan to introduce a few bills into the Iceland parliament to make Iceland into a model technical data state”
After a long time of big corporations influencing the directions of countries we are seeing the first signs of the new Netocracy. The Net’s citizens start shaping their environment. And it’l be easier every day: As Mr. Ito says the cost of failure drops. The potential to win grows.
P.S.: I became a paying Premium Member of the Creative Commons a few days back
Door Knocker of S. Gimignano
We were in holiday in Toscany/Italy and visited San Gimignano. We took a lot of nice photos. I thought their focus on nice door knockers seemed interesting so I recommend the slideshow of 22 pictures.
