Folklishing?Inspired by the effect of folkosonomy, we need a new term to define the new category of blogging, wiki and other social social(partly of their posting functions). I call it "Folklising", it's not formal and intitutional method of traditional publishing. The words, ideas and memes flow anywhere under this type of publishing. Thus the knowledge can be weaved in a more comlicated and well connected way. Just like Dupon's new material, it's more flexible, extensible and plastical. Thus there are some new researchers study the expansion of content on web via Google to explore the semantic relationship of words. The more folklized, the accurate they can find on real world language.

Knuth's long awaited book "The Art of Computer Programming: Volume 4" near published? from Slashdot:"bookpool.com has posted an excerpt from Knuth's long awaited
The Art of Computer Programming: Volume 4. It is very short and discusses combinatorial searching. But when will it be published? Bookpool does not hazard a guess."
I've read the exclusive excerpt in PDF from bookpool.com(unfortunetely blocked by Great Firewall), really curious how will K's new book change programmer's mind this time as the first 3 volumes did successfully before. Anyway, the trivial skills on data strctures has been popular for years. Can the pure programming art still catch their eyes?
This site is under maintainance. I'm troubleshooting the problems on my hosting server... Sorry for inconvenience.
