Unbelievable! Verizon is charging Dial-up customers to connect to local ISP
Unbelievable! Verizon is charging Dial-up customers to connect to local ISP
Verizon Communications Inc. can charge per-minute fees for calls to local numbers that dial-up users need to connect to the Internet - in much the same way that they charge for long-distance or other calls." So, Verizon can charge non-Verizon Internet users a fee to make LOCAL CALLS - Even if their own Internet service is unavailable. Now that Lamecastic!

BetaNews | Google to IE Users: Try Firefox
BetaNews | Google to IE Users: Try Firefox: "Google on Wednesday rolled out the first third-party advertisement on its traditionally spartan homepage -- a link to download Firefox with the Google Toolbar. The promotion appears underneath Google's search box and is currently visible only to Internet Explorer users.
The search engine's ties to Firefox are nothing new; the company has hired a number of the browser's developers and has begun paying affiliates $1 for each user they get to install Firefox with Google Toolbar. The Mozilla corporation behind Firefox also makes most of its revenues from a search partnership with Google"

Based on a recent patent we may be seeing a new kind of display coming from the Apple store in the near future, one that can capture images as well as display them. From the article: "The clever idea is to insert thousands of microscopic image sensors in-between the liquid crystal display cells in the screen. Each sensor captures its own small image, but software stitches these together to create a single, larger picture.

Slyck News - Sk-hype It Up For Digital Music
“Skype's inherently social network will enable more sales than iTunes,” Phil Wolff bravely asserts.
Wolff is a leading VoIP observer and writer for the Skype Journal, a website dedicated to “independent news, views and support” for Skype.
Community spirit has always been important for online music. When Roxio launched Napster 2.0, they said that it could never be a success unless they could capture the atmosphere of the original Napster community.

Several small companies are working on ways to convert standard hybrid cars into plug-in hybrids that use even less gasoline and reportedly get up to 100 miles per gallon.
Initial costs are still high, but do-it-yourself kits, solar power and attention from big-name automakers could make plug-in hybrids much more affordable.

New Scientist Tech - Breaking News - Invention: The TV-advert enforcer
If a new idea from Philips catches on, the company may not be very popular with TV viewers. The company's labs in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, has been cooking up a way to stop people changing channels to avoid adverts or fast forwarding through ads they have recorded along with their target programme.
The secret, according to a new patent filing, is to take advantage of Multimedia Home Platform - the technology behind interactive television in many countries around the world. MHP software now comes built into most modern digital TV receivers and recorders. It looks for digital flags buried in a broadcast, and displays messages on screen that let the viewer call up extra features, such as additional footage or information about a programmeTV's Flexible Future - CBS News
TV's Flexible Future - CBS News
(CBS) In the orange light of the clean room at the Universal Display Corporation, scientists are working on technology that would make Buck Rogers smile, reports CBS News Correspondent Jim Axelrod.
"As you can see it's quite flexible," says Anna Chwang, senior scientist, as she displays a paper thin film with images running across it.
It uses something called "OLEDs" (organic light emitting devices), a thin film of chemicals, 1/10,000 of an inch thick, that turns an electronic signal into a picture, much like a television does.

CNET to Distribute Video-on-Demand on TV
CNET to Distribute Video-on-Demand on TV
The new video-on-demand (VOD) deal will make available how-to instructional videos, news and other topics on cable provider Cox Communications' VOD offering, on TiVo boxes and to TVN Entertainment, which distributes programming to other cable operators. Programming will first be available in June; CNET plans to create a similar offering for its own Web site some time in the second half of the year. Gillespie said he expects to get CNET TV on all of the major multiple-systems operators (MSO), or cable providers.
Each program will run about 15 minutes in length, and will contain :15 commercials before and after video runs. A shorter spot is more proportional to the length of the on-demand video. "Our experience is that when you run longer than a :15 online, we get a violent reaction from our viewers," said GillespieSunday, April 16, 2006
