Pamela Jones (Groklaw):
[PJ: He thinks that's bad, and it is, but then Bill Gates never did grok the
Internet, which, when you think about it, has value *only* because
people link to each other...]
Does the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Get the Web?
,----[ Quote ]
| Bill Gates's decision to move away from
| day-to-day running of Microsoft was doubly
| shrewd. First, because it allowed him to
| leave when his company was at its apogee,
| and to avoid association with its current
| - inevitable - decline (notice how the
| meme that Microsoft is irrelevant is
| becoming widespread?) And secondly, it
| enabled him to help Microsoft extend its
| reach - especially in developing countries
| - by other means, while earning plaudits
| for his charitable work.
|
| Unpicking the complex weft and weave of
| philanthropy and self-interest at the Bill
| & Melinda Gates Foundation would require
| an entire book (and no, don't worry, I
| won't be writing it). Rather than plunging
| into that maelstrom, I wanted to pick up
| an extraordinary aspect of the
| Foundation's site, spotted by Thierry
| Stoehr.
|
| It's rather telling that the Terms of Use
| for the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
| run to no less than *seven* pages when
| printed out (who knew that using the Web
| was such a complicated and risky
| operation?).
