Free Internet Service
I often find unsecure wireless networks, both at home and work. My initial reaction is what are these people doing? Do they know they have an "unsecure" network and have file and print services on? They are just asking for trouble.
I thought about this for a minute and realize that newbie do-it-yourself types do not know any better. A piece of advice, change the SSIDs, and do not broadcast. The out-of-the-box NetGear and Linksys SSIDs are widely known and easy to guess.
P2P Is Fair Use
Yup! You read it, P2P is fair use. Well, according to Harvard Law Professor, Charles Nesson, it is fair use. Pirate Bay recently got the smack down (Thanks to the Judge and his special interest motives) for file sharing.
Pirate Bay does not host any of the files, yet it was found guilty. Okay, let's see the idiotic lawyers go after Google. Check out The Pirate Google. Let's keep an eye on this topic, the verdict could change the playing field. Hollywood and Music are shitting bricks, nice!
More Facebook News
These guys are always in the headlines! The fiasco regarding their privacy policy, censoring emails, and now the company is raising $150 million to cash out employees. WTF! I don't get it. Facebook is NOT profitable, yet wants to raise cash to buy back employee shares.
I understand Facebook wants to take "care" of its employees, but raising cash to buy back shares isn't the right approach. I would be interested in hearing the views from its current investors. Its time to cash out, give 2 weeks notice, and start your own companies. Nice!

Stumble Stumble Fall
I occasionally visit Yahoo! Answers, eHow, and other related sites, because I get a kick out of the wacked questions and responses. I was reading the how-tos on eHow and stumbled on these instructions for women, “How to Remove Camel Toe”. Nice.
Oh, by the way. Some of you should read the Grooming Basics section. You know who you are you nasty. First on your agenda is “How to Shower”. Second is “How to not have stinky pits” and following in third is “How to wipe your ass”.
Android Netbook
Rumors are flying all over the place regarding the availability of Android-powered netbooks. Skytone has an Android-powered netbook on their website. Also, its rumored that Asus and HP will be releasing their own Android-powered netbooks too.
Aside from giving consumers another choice of operating system, I am not sure where it fits in the dominant Windows space. On the other hand, it could boost the adoption of Google Android by other manufacturers. Interesting news, I will keep an eye on this one.
Chrysler Curb
I'm sure everyone knows that Chrysler filed for bankruptcy. Part of the restructuring is the reduction of dealers. Well, which local Chrysler dealers get one-way tickets to the curb? It appears there is only one ticket for "Folsom Lake Chrysler Jeep" at the Automall.
Frankly, I'm a bit surprised. I thought all of the local dealers would be kicked to the curb. I guess that I'm not as optimistic about Chrysler and its future. Now, its time for Chevrolet to do the same.
Win A Free Car
Want a free car? Jackass Massachusetts Governor, Deval Patrick, is giving away donated cars to welfare recipients. Oh, that is not all. The government pays the auto insurance and AAA membership fees too. What a moron. Kickbacks to AND from your butt buddies at AAA?
Office Space Classic
I caught the last half of Office Space on cable television, nice. One of my favorite quotes is "I'm thinking I might take that new chick from Logistics. If things go well I might be showing her my O-face. Oh... Oh... Oh! You know what I'm talkin' about. Oh!"
Office Space is classic cheese, but I catch when it airs on television. Check out the poker face expressions on the other faces. Cold as ice. I would have been rolling on the ground busting a nut. ROTFLMAO!
Zune Phone
I mentioned the Zune Phone in the previous post, assuming others are following the news. I will make good on the oversight, check out the rumored specs for the Zune Phone. Quick, when is the planned release date? That you need to find out for yourself!
