News for 9/20/07

A Semantic Web? If only it could figure out a way to get me to every Pearl Jam concert...

200 GB Download Limit? Oh Comcast its the internets. First you throttle Bittorrent speeds and now this? How "Comcastic" of them.

BlueFi? With chips like this a company could them in devices like a TV or a HD-DVD player. The device could connect to the internet to download updates to firmware (such as HD-DVD players) or stream music from a network. And with the bluetooth it could connect to wireless speakers reducing the pain of hiding surround speaker cables.

What Bob Dylan thinks of CS

I have to admit he is right.

Lollapalooza: Sponsored and Censored by AT&T

Sure the title was taken from Pearl Jam's website but it is very pertinent.

For those of you that haven't heard there is a basic article about the event.

If you haven't heard/seen what was cut out you can check it out here.

Being at the show, though not being able to hear exactly what was said, the crowd did not seem to have a problem. In fact there was a lot of cheering just by the name of George W.

Well it appears that this is not the first time AT&T has censored a band during their broadcasts.

It is kind of hard for a company to be neutral when they donate funds to someone's campaign.
