When I discovered that there was an app for the iPhone in the AppStore that allows snipers to work out bullet trajectories based on the round used, distance, environmental conditions and so on, I was frankly amazed. Given all the spurious reasons that Apple give for denying software developers entry into the AppStore, you'd have thought that killing someone or something
The Performing Rights Society (PRS), the approximate equivalent of the US's RIAA, recently published a paper outlining a proposed approach to the compensation of rights holders based on the level of unlicensed material passing through an ISP. The paper, snappily titled Moving Digital Britain Forward Without Leaving Creative Britain Behind, was written by Will Page, Chief Economist, PRS for Music

Rumor, rumor, on the wall. Apple rumors talk abound. Are they true or are they not. Rumor, rumor fill my pot. Thought I would make a nursery rhyme on this. After all, rumors seem to be Mother Gooses best yarns. Some rumors come true. Others, not so much. No clam shell phone, no mini version either. But will that one
Ultraviolet is a brand new service just announced by some Hollywood and technology heavyweights. The Digital Entertainment Content Ecosystem (DECE), a collection of 58 studios and tech companies, is betting it's future on Ultraviolet. This will be a video standard - more like a codec and not a web site. Actually, more cloud storage than anything else. Essentially you will
I've been using Stitcher to listen to most Podcasts. The only frustrating thing was that every time I got a call or had to check on something with the phone, I would have to re-open the program. Not anymore. Stitcher's newest release features the option to run in the background. Therefore, you can read a text message, send an email,
I like my phone. I just got it four or five months ago, and it works well for what I want. It's a semi-smart phone, which means I can check email from web-based programs (for me, gmail and yahoo mail) and do some minor surfing and post to Facebook. It's not great for intensive sites, but I usually am not
A few days ago I posted an article here entitled “Waxing Nostalgic” in which I reminisced about the original three Podcast & New Media Expos held at Ontario, California and how special they were. Upon further examination, it’s suddenly become obvious to me what set these three conferences apart and what made them such a success from a social standpoint.
You all know my excitement for Over the Top TV due to our overwhelming success so far with our Roku channels, heck thousands of you are watching my show on the Roku every day. Since January we have known the Popbox was coming, and my team at RawVoice really wanted to have channels ready for the device. Sadly we did
When the iPhone came along in 2007, many people were immediately disappointed, including me, that it was tied at the hip to AT&T. In retrospect, that set the stage for what was to follow. Immediately many iPhone users began to complain about poor signal coverage and dropped calls. It seems that everyone assumed that the iPhone itself as a phone
The UK's Information Commissioner's Office has published a pair of guides about holding personal information online. The first guide is a Code of Practice aimed at organisations, particularly, those that sell goods and services over the web and is to help them understand the data protection law and develop good practice. The second is for individuals and is Protecting Your
I am not really sure how I feel about this one. It's a rather strange story. Here's a snippet of what Computer Weekly recently posted: "Microsoft has signed an agreement with Russia to share the source code of multiple products, according to US reports. The agreement expands co-operation with Russia under Microsoft's Government Security Program set up to help governments
