Netscape laid to rest
It's sad to say how a great browser that started the web revolution was laid to rest. It had reached great popularity among it's competitor Microsoft Internet Explorer. For years Netscape was the topic among users on which browser was the best to surf on. Sure Internet Exlorer was pre-installed on every computer system that you bought and you didn't have to pre-install the software. But with the Netscape browser you got richer web pages and plenty more. No matter what people were saying you couldn't turn away from Netscape because it always was doing something new. Even though we say goodbye to Netscape, it gives users the opportunity to choose how we want to search the world wide web.

Broadbands to charge per Usage
This is a pretty ruthless act towards ISP's who control broadband service plans. What they intend to do is charge users per usage use instead of the existing regular monthly usage plans for high broadband users. Why don't we just protest and tell them why don't they just charge us for usage only and if there is no usage use for that month you pay nothing. Seems only right since they are complaining only about the 5% of subscribers who go beyond their normal needs.

Bluetooth New Generation
When you think you have seen everything, something comes around that is out of this world. I can't begin to imagine how useful this device will be.
Just think of your current bluetooth device today and bring it up a notch and you get a bluetooth device that uses sounds from your larynx to create a voice. It eliminates the high wind noise that still is a problem today. Hopefully someone can make this device more portable. I just can't see people walking around with this gizmo around there heads.
