I like online videos but I don’t have time to watch as much as I like. At work I can listen to podcasts as much as I like until it is time to go home. I have yet to figure a way to watch videos while I work so audio only is for my situation. The difference between video and
I don’t know how Pandora works. I just know it does. Pandora is an online music service I’m sure most of you have heard of if not used. I started using it last year and I absolutely love it. It learns what you like as you use it. You pick a single song or artist when starting up and it
I just saw some information on a solar icemaker created by some students in San Jose. This is a great invention. The picture I saw was a big device but who cares. Regular commercial icemakers are big as well. It is not shocking that college kids would create something like this since many of them use ice for sports injuries,
The recent story about the lady who tried to kidnap her former boyfriend after a breakup is disturbing but I hope people don’t panic. The couple met in Second Life, the online virtual world. They actually met in person here in reality but broke up shortly afterward. The lady decided she was not ready to let go of this unlucky
Todd has been rallying the troops to combat bandwidth caps for consumers for a while now. I agree it sux to have a cap any service that previously had no limit. Cell phones have actually gone the other way. In the old days you pretty much paid by the minute but now you can buy as many minutes as you
Over here in Aus for $90 a month I get 20GB which is one of the larger consumer cable Internet plans you can get.

Regardless of whether or not the Comcast broadband deal represents good value, to
With Comcast declaring 250gb Bandwidth caps for those using their Internet Service. I am calling for a Boycott of Comcast. This move by Comcast is not a surprise but in the modern utilization of the Internet the 250gb Cap will destroy Internet Innovation.

The Social Network Friendfeed is changing their look. They launched it at beta.friendfeed.com. The big change is it moves the navigation links from the top to the right side. It's now got a similar look to Google Groups because of it. The new version added an option in Friend Settings where you can put your friends into a more organized
I have seen several versions of automatic or robotic lawn mowers online yet I am still skeptical. Mostly I have seen ones similar to the one pictured at the end of this post. But I have run across a couple of big ones. They all seem to be guided by GPS or an underground cable. The problem I have with
I saw where Sony was dropping one of their Blu Ray players down to $300. This will obviously send other companies to slashing their prices as well. There are different opinions on what the price point is where Blu Ray will take over DVD sales. I don't know if it is $199 or $149 or even as low as $99.
I so want one of these. I can think of half-a-dozen applications I could use this for. It has a range of up to 30 feet and can stream whatever you want from your desktop/laptop pc to any monitor/television with a VGA port. I have one of those. My kids are begging me to add another cable box in the
