Last.fm is awesome

And I think it should be politically backed not only by the CBS type of people. This could be a way for talented artists to be paid. For people to download content to their portable music players. And the same technology can be applied to video.

Questions I have about the 700MHZ frequency for wireless broadband

I posted this at GigaOM. This is sounding like it can become a mud fight in the telecom industry. This sounds fun. I’d like it if you could answer these questions I have about the technologies in question:
- Is the winning bid going to be using Mobile WiMAX on this 700MHZ spectrum? Is there any […]

Free wireless broadband for all

Let’s get free Mobile WiMAX over the 700MHZ spectrum in every country of the world. That is the UHF radio spectrum that was previously used in every country for analog terrestrial television. Now that we have transitioned to digital terrestrial television, this 700MHZ spectrum is now free and should be used for long range, wall […]

Some dancing videos on Youtube

The world hates Bush

Democratic Senators are finally doing something about the war in Iraq. At least that’s what they are trying to make people think that they are. They have the majority in the Senate by 51-49 seats, so to have an up or down vote on setting a schedule for removing the American from Iraq, they need […]

My video to David Miliband, UK Foreign Minister

How soon are we going to phase out gas powered cars and replace them with electric cars? It seems from news on the Internet that the technology for electric cars is available now.
And by the way, it would also bring peace to the world and fix global warming if we did that change today.

Intel and the OLPC future of computing

I’d like to hope that Intel will have a very positive attitude with OLPC going forward. Firstly not to “compete” XO-1 by dumping low volume of Classmate-1. And not dumping EEE-1 in low volumes eigther.
Intel should contribute competing with AMD towards the low power fanless CPU for XO-2, there should be an even lower power […]

OLPC and Intel partnership

Finally, Intel joins the One Laptop Per Child project.
XO-1 will start mass production as planned this September or October and will use AMD Geode LX-700 chips as planned.
The first generation school servers that will be shipped to schools using the XO-1 will use Intel chips.
This is what I think we can expect Intel could provide […]

Waiting in line is stupid

This is a followup to John C. Dvorak’s column on PCmag.com:
Here’s one thing I’m looking forward to that a pocket product with somekind of GPS built-in and clever Web 2.0 apps would bring:
- Organisation in society and among people so that nobody needs to wait in line ever again.
In this society of consumerism, some people […]

Some of the iPhone negatives

Here are more negatives to add on the ones listed at gizmodo.com:
Just as any other Apple product, it’s locked to iTunes, it doesn’t support full DVD quality DivX, XviD, Mpeg2, WMV, AC3, vbr-mp3, RM, Mpeg1, Ogg Theora, GVI.. It only synchs through iTunes, forget about copying some files from a random computer that doesn’t have […]
