I am referring to files recently released by P2Pnet that show: "The RIAA paid Holmes Roberts & Owen $9,364,901 in 2008, Jenner & Block more than
This had to singularly be one of the worst presentations Steve Jobs has given in a while. I was watching the video on CNet. The video itself was short and edited to be more to the point. We learned in 2:53 what took Steve Jobs 30 minutes to say. But the first 10 minutes were the most surprising. Let me
The year was 2005. The month was November. The setting was the Ontario Convention Center in Ontario, California. The event was the first podcast media expo. The phenomenon of podcasting, brought to life by Adam Curry and Dave Winer, was a bit over a year old. At least a couple of thousand podcasters as well as many podcast listeners showed
In November, not soon enough, I will be eligible for a new cell phone. Don't get me wrong, I have been happy with my Samsung Omnia running Windows Mobile 6.1. It's reliable, it has WiFi, and I've added lots of apps such as WeatherBug, Google Mobile, and TouchTwit. Google Maps works great with the built-in GPS, YouTube plays well...really there's
The air is electric with heady excitement. The big day has finally arrived. “This one will be nirvana!” you tell yourself.

There’s your dream -- waiting there for you, with a
The British Government has confessed that it doesn't have sufficient money to meet the deadline of 2012 for a 2Mb/s broadband universal service. This commitment had been made by the previous government but was reconfirmed by the Culture Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, only last month in his speech at the Hospital Club in London. He further said, "Our goal is simple: within
Can you believe planning is already underway for CES 2011. Crazy as it may sound we have our first meeting on Saturday.. We are really ramping it up this year by adding a 4th component to the content. Lots of tech news tonight and hopefully the oil leak remains sealed until they can get a final fix in. What a
Obviously the name is a play on "radio", but, they say they pronounce it "ar-dee-oh". What I am talking about is the new service Rdio, which is in private beta right now. My attempts to get into the beta program, so far, have failed, but I will tell you what I have been able to learn from "other sources". First,
This coming Saturday we are having a conference call with all the team members from TechPodcasts.com on our CES 2011 game plan. In 2010 the team published over 130 Interviews and put up hours of secondary content. That content literally reached millions of people.
