  • Large Hadron Collider to Hibernate Until Spring
    The helium leak which caused the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to shut down last Friday will mean that the LHC will be in hibernation until Spring 2009. While the repairs will take approximately two months, as I indicated earlier, the lab shuts down in the winter to save costs. Officials with the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) decided not to restart the worlds largest particle accelerator until next year.

It is expected to run accurately for at least two hundred years.

  • Report - ACTA Stalled Amid War Between Australian ISPs and Copyright Industry
    While on the surface, it appears to be a standard report on the ISPs refusing to comply with the idea of being the copyright police, a section of a very interesting report suggests that the ACTA negotiations have been stalled. It may be an old story being repeated over and over again in Australia, but a report from the report from the Courier Mail in Australia reiterates an issue that has been going on for months. However, the report reveals something else that may be seen for anti-ACTA (Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement) organizations and activists as quite an achievement - insiders of ACTA are suggesting that ACTA has been delayed as a direct result of world-wide opposition. It first details the tension between the Australian Internet Service Providers and the copyright industry. Australian ISPs openly refuse to just cave to demands of a separate industry that claims to be facing significant losses (contrary to numerous studies that suggest otherwise) due to file-sharing.

  • Best Buy to Acquire Napster 2.0 for $121 Million
    The news may have been missed by some, but there is word that Napster could very likely be sold to Best Buy for $121 Million. Napster has had quite a run with the media and Napster 2.0 seemed to make the headlines on a fairly regular basis with its supposedly revolutionary business model of a subscription service for an unlimited archive of music encoded with Digital Rights Management. Things were going well for the company back in 2005 with backing of the major record labels and an influx of subscribers willing to buy in. While the company capitalized on their gains with glamorous press releases and places in major news outlets over their successes and gains, their losses were kept rather quiet - typical for a company that relies on image to help with their business.

  • Exclusive: WinMXWorld Announces The WinMX Community Patch
    WinMX has just announced that they are releasing a Community Patch which is designed to bring together a once split community. While there has been high profile news stories like the legal challenge brought against Ray Beckerman from the RIAA, Danish ISPs refusing to be copyright police and ACTA getting stalled (not to mention earning a lawsuit in the process), the WinMX community has been quietly moving along with key developments to help the community regain a bigger footing in the file-sharing world at large - not just in the past few days, but in the past few years. Early on this year, we conducted an interview with an operator of WinMXWorld by the name of Tigger. At the time, we discussed things like Deep Packet Inspection failing to detect WinMX traffic, developments in the network past, present and future and the community behind the WinMX network thats successfully kept the network alive and well. A lot of time has passed since this interview, but a lot of time to make significant developments for the network.

  • "Im a PC," and I Was Made on a Mac
    Microsofts new phase of its ad campaign, aimed at renovating the image of Windows, which began with the much criticized Seinfeld-Gates ads (three of which were filmed but only two of which were aired), seems much better than the first phase. But its also proven somewhat embarrassing for the company: images created for use in the campaign were created using not just a competitors product (Adobe Creative Suite 3), but also non-Windows based PCs --- Macs to be exact.
