Is it a threat to 3G? This article gives a good overview of the legislative and economic background to the subject, particularly in Europe.

Attached as I was to Blogger, the “market leader” of self-publishing weblog software, I have been looking for a way to divide my weblog into categories and allow people to view only those categories that interest them.

Moveable Type, which I am now using, allows this and contains a number of other useful facilities as well. I highly recommend it.

I owe a debt of thanks to my friend Reid Ellis who hosts the site and who has helped a great deal in making the switch-over a smooth one. Do let me know if you like the new look and new capabilities – I call your attention to the “comment” feature just below.

I also encourage you to join my mailing list (at right) – another feature made easier by Moveable Type. This won’t email you every time a new entry is posted but it will allow me to notify you when I add something that I consider particularly interesting.

The Guardian reminds us of a topical speech by Eisenhower on the cost of the military:

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its labourers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.”

A funny take from Satirewire on Canada’s navy, which recently seized an oil tanker in the Gulf. Did you know in WWII Canada had a navy second only to the US and Great Britain’s?

Big Mother is watching you… If it can be believed this gadget will make a lot of (fairly wealthy American) parents happy and a few kids rather disgruntled – it is a watch that also acts as a locator and 911 alarm. The idea is that as long as your kid wears the watch you will know where they are thanks to the telephone and GPS networks. I have my doubts about whether it will work in cities – my inexpensive GPS doesn’t work too well in London or Paris for example. It’s also rather costly – c. $400 for the unit plus from $25 a month – and will initially only be available in the US…movies free porn adultfree movies hand jobnaked free moviesfree shemale pantyhose movieseighteen fucking moviesfree gay full moviesgay movies hotmovies dildo pussy huge Map

An “over-designed” (it relies on Flash) but graphically interesting way to present a history of the Internet It’s only a partial history, since it doesn’t go back further than 1981 but it is a good way to get a quick picture and has lots of external links. The sponsoring company, Novatis, has also produced a similar timeline for computing, starting in 1967.
