With the sudden and ubiquitous emergence of PaaS ( Platform-as-a-Service ), I thought I’d investigate several other "aaSes" as I always thought PaaS was something VC’s did. BaaS: This is a fish. CaaS: Commission on Accreditation of Ambulance Services (or the Chet Atkins Appreciation Society) DaaS: Dogs-as-a-Service. Also known as Dogster . EaaS: Elephants-as-a-Service. Also known as The Nature Channel. FaaS: How I generally drive my SL 55. GaaS: New pricing model. Unlimited supply for $4 / hour. HaaS: Hardware-as-a-Service . This what Amazon really sells. IaaS: Infrastructure-as-a-Service . It’s in Wikipedia, so it must be true. JaaS: Java Authentication and Authorization Service . KaaS: The fat singer in the Mamas &the Papas . LaaS: A Mango flavored Indian drink; Local Area Augmentation Service . MaaS: Catholics-as-a-Service. This...

It’s no surprise what’s happened to the record business in the wake of the digital realignment of the media. Even transitional gambits such as Starbuck’s in-store sales of CDs are going the way of the record stores of yore. Apple is reportedly negotiating with the 3 other major labels to join EMI in banishing DRM, and Paul McCartney’s latest electronique collaboration with some kid named Youth will be available for free streaming before going on sale by the track. ... more

Maybe. The upcoming en banc session of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit happening in May is an important one. Brad Stone of the New York Times has a nice short summary of what is going on here in New Patentable Idea: A Way to Invalidate Vague Patents . The End Software Patents Coalition has launched. Look for a lot more from me in the near future on this as my efforts to abolish software patents intensifies. ... more

While you are at it, please consider implementing the Windows Live Contacts API .

I’m at TechStars for a Day watching my partner Ryan McIntyre give a presentation on Excite where he was a founder. Each time he gives this presentation, it reminds me of the very first web spider - at least that I’m aware of. Can you name it? It’s the World Wide Web Wanderer (also known as W4 - which created the Wandex index.) The creator was Matthew Gray which was one of the co-founders of NetGenesis - my first angel investment.
