Jonathan Miller - The Future of AOL - A Conversation (14.39MB; download) -- AOL is one of a handful of truly global web brands. Chairman and CEO Jonathan F. Miller talks to John Batelle about AOL's future needs and its transition to the Web 2.0 mindset at the 2005 Web 2.0 conference. Miller stresses the need for AOL to focus on balancing traditional and user-generated content, while maintaining its key position and web brand. This approach is made more difficult because, although AOL seeks to expand beyond its current technological and geopolitical boundaries, it continues to be faithful to its origins as an ISP.

Network Neutrality (1.94MB; download) -- Senator Obama discusses Senators Snowe and Dorgan's legislation to protect network neutrality on the internet.
"It is because the Internet is a neutral platform that I can put out this podcast and transmit it over the Internet without having to go through any corporate media middleman. I can say what I want without censorship or without having to pay a special charge.
But the big telephone and cable companies want to change the Internet as we know it. They say that they want to create high speed lanes on the Internet and strike exclusive contractual agreements with Internet content providers for access to those high speed lanes.
Everyone who cannot pony up the cash will be relegated to the slow lanes."

New TOE series "Adventures in Surveillance" this week: HOLLER BACK (6.80MB; download) -- "The only way I could go on now was to turn over a new leaf. I had underestimated my opponent.

PodSession: Startup Do's and Don'ts with Matt Mullenweg of Automattic (9.89MB; download) -- Last night Om and I sat down with Matt Mullenweg, lead developer of open-source blogging software WordPress and a recent founder of Automattic to record our latest PodSession. Automattic is a software services company centered around the WordPress blogging platform.
We chatted about how to successfully scale a new web application. WordPress.com currently hosts about 200,000 blogs with mirrored hosting in San Diego and Dallas. Matt and I agreed that it's best not to over-optimize at the beginning but instead sit back and watch the actual usage of your web application to fine-tune. Check out Cal Henderson's new book, Building Scalable Web Sites for over 300 pages to help keep your site online.
Om tried to shake things up with a Ruby on Rails vs. PHP showdown, but again it didn't work. David Heinemeier Hansson and I talked about the same issue in our 37signals podcast last December. Pick a programming language you and your engineers are comfortable with, or you can easily pick up based on existing skills. Using existing programming libraries in a given language may sway your decision.
We talked about spam in the form of fake blogs and/or comment spam. The Akismet plugin has stopped over 40 million spam messages from blog owners and is also being used to identify the creation of spam blog accounts on WordPress.com. With the recent integration of blog search results to mainstream media sites such as Time.com and the Associated Press blog spam now has a new level of visibility and motive for attack. Hopefully startup companies are keeping on top of the problem and related items for "Bush" won't be overwhelmed with camgirls.
This week's PodSession, Startup Do's and Don'ts, is 22 minutes in length, a 10 MB download.
