Many have come to question whether we trust the giant telecoms or Google regarding the Wireless UHF TV Spectrum auction for which the FCC is about to create rules.
My question is - Is Tom Tauke any different than Ed Whitacre? Let’s see… Tauke says;
“Google is attempting to ensure the F.C.C. that the federal government can […]
Noticed at Willie Crawford’s forum;
“Important - If You Sell Louis Allport Material” referring to this page “Reprint Rights Update From Louis Allport”
“On Friday the 14th of December, 2007 - nearly ALL my reprint rights products (the full list is on this page) will be permanently retired. In other words, you will no longer have the […]
I find historical trivia very interesting and today I learned (no, I didn’t learnt) more.
“Made up in 1938 by the nine year old Milton Sirrota, the nephew of mathematician Edward Kasner.”

The number 10100, written as 1 followed by 100 zeros.
The significance of this? Googol. No. it isn’t misspelled, yet. Googol.

Borne of personal feelings and many years of experience in the “real” world…
In response to Michael Arrington’s post today at Techcrunch “What’s Really Going On With Podtech?” within which he extols the talents of one specific individual (of a few).
For your consideration - do you realize that there are folks out there with lots of […]
Okay! Okay! I Get It! I Get It!
In order to get traffic you publish a ridiculous, inane commentary on a rumor.
Then you convince almost two thousand knuckleheads at Digg to digg your inane commentary on a rumor. Oy Vey…
The rumor? “A drunk employee kills all of the websites you care about”
“Someone came in sh**faced drunk, […]
Just one or two reminders if you please…
*****From The San Francisco Chronicle June 2006*****
“AT&T Rewrites Rules: Your data isn’t yours”
“AT&T has issued an updated privacy policy that takes effect Friday [June 23, 2006]. The changes are significant because they appear to give the telecom giant more latitude when it comes to sharing customers’ […]
I can just feel the bristling of the hairs on the back of Ed Whitacre’s neck!
Opening with what I personally consider a very interesting comment on the availability of the Internet “It strikes us as unfair that some people should enjoy such abundant access to this rich resource while billions of others aren’t so lucky” […]
Feeling a bit like a scene from “Platoon,” we have the “Why can’t I comment on your Blog?” and “Why would I want to comment on your blog?” or “You allow comments so I’m leaving!” or perhaps “You don’t allow comments so I’m leaving!” topic.

Its been around the web forever and it isn’t anything new. But “installing” them on a sponsored theme that is being downloaded at large for free is a relatively recent twist. [A “sponsored” theme is a theme with embedded advertising, hence the inbound links.]
Since Matt decided to remove sponsored themes from WordPress.net this last week […]
Perhaps someone at the Techdirt Insight Community will have the ability to answer this one:
Does anyone have “reliable figures available that put Google’s splog problem into perspective.”
Matt Mullenweg pointed to it - “Why Google is the service of choice for sploggers.”
Quoting Jonathan Bailey from Plagiarism Today (a darn good man) Michael Pollitt of The Guardian […]

Okay, I write a post. I put a lot of effort into this post through research and editing. I publish it and my Blog platform, if it is set up this way, pings Ping-O-Matic to notify them of the existence of this entry. Seems to me I earned the right to do that.
OTOH, I visit […]
Verizon? Vodaphone? $160 Billion? $78.5 Billion?
It may be that I live a very sheltered life because I’d never heard of Vodaphone prior to right now. And the only comprehension I have of those amounts of money is that they are numbers I have no comprehension of…
Larry Dignan at Between The Lines tells us that Vodaphone […]
I’ll assume I’m reaching those who may own a reasonable number of domain names that are parked. And the question is “Are you making the most of those parked domains?” Or, are you embroiled in a disagreement about trademarks? Well, Google won’t, isn’t able to, put an end to whatever disagreements you may be having […]
I’ll say it again - Live, Honest, Free Commenting Has Positive Results!
Microcosmic as it may be, I believe this exchange between Raj and myself is indicative of the truth behind commenting live, honestly and for free.
What appeared initially, to me, to be a disagreement, evolved into a brief and positively productive conversation within which I […]
