"Jerry, I have to tell you something. This is the dullest moment I've ever experienced." - George, watching laundry, in "Good News, Bad News" episode of Seinfeld. I woke up this morning to find a Tweet from Startupmeme that the first Seinfeld ad for Microsoft had hit the airwaves. I followed the...

Wasting little time coming out of the long US Labor Day weekend, Google released a shiny new browser aptly called Chrome. Why on earth would the world need another browser at this point in the history of the internet is unclear, especially another open source entry, but one thing is crystal clear,...

So I'm scrolling through the features rather than the news and I come across this. Software developers, apparently, are under threat from censors. Apple is refusing to put violent games onto its iTunes store and Facebook is going to refuse to distribute some applications. I'm interested mostly in...

I live and breathe technology news, it is what turns me on. Sad, but hey I am a news nerd, what can I say? (Read Blog)

Lisa Hoover in a Nutshell
I have an unhealthy love of computers, software, and Web 2.0 apps. I probably need an intervention, but please wait until I finish catching up on my RSS feeds... (Read Blog)
Twitter users are a loyal bunch and few would argue that it's a useful networking tool. The one thing Twitter is not, however, is private. While that's not a big deal for most people, it certainly is in the world of academics where it's ill-advised to have children using communication tools that...

EddieC in a Nutshell
My first computer was an Atari 800, with which I played Zork and other adventure/fantasy games and dabbled with BASIC programs; circa 1980. After 1984, I moved on to PCs, clones and NetWare, and then to Apple IIs and Macs until 1990. In July of that year I got my first job at a publishing company,... (Read Blog)

It was widely reported today that Apple will begin selling iPhones in Russia through agreements with at least two of the country's top three carriers. Apple might be better off settling for its current black market sales figures, which one report has at about 20,000 units a month. Because Apple...

The November election brings with it the promise of changes, new beginnings, and hope for those who've endured the past 8 years with less than an enthusiastic attitude. The choice of President and Vice President means far less to most of us than the people they choose for Cabinet positions. Their...

The long summer holidays are over here in the UK, and our kids have pretty much all gone back to school this week. Which is good news for providers of anonymous proxies and bad news for the school network admins trying to prevent students from accessing inappropriate sites. One UK web content...

slfisher in a Nutshell
People thought it was weird enough that I was both a writer and a computer geek. So then I went and started getting involved in government to pull that in, too. And, y'know, there's a heck of a lot more connections than one might think! (Read Blog)
