Google v. China
Be interesting to see if Google can actually stay in China while providing uncensored search results. I kinda doubt it, but I like that they are threatening to pull out of China if they aren't allowed to.

NBC's total late-night meltdown
NBC has been poorly run for quite some time now, and the pure cost-cutting move of bringing Leno back for the 10pm slot could possibly go down as the worst move in broadcast TV history. It was NBC throwing in the towel saying, "ok we can't compete let's spend as little money as possible." I do think Conan has struggled since taking over the tonight show, they should have just kept the same format/feel of his old show.

Why not to accept "gifts" when selling items on Paypal.
Google checkout had a chance when their fees where about half of what paypal's are but then they upped their fees to be about the same. Very stupid idea.

Palm Pre
FYI Palm announced the Palm Pre Plus today, it's Verizon exclusive available on Jan. 25th. Storage is bumped up to 16gig and they appear to have made a few other smaller changes to the hardware (the center button is gone and the slider function seems improved). Couple other Pre related announcements, full 3d games coming soon and an official mobile hotspot app from Palm.

If it's even an IP issue, Palm certainly has multi-touch w/ the Pre....

gPhone
There's a couple 3rd party browsers for Android that have added multi-touch support since the Droid came out. Be nice to have it system wide of course, but web browsing is probably where it's most useful.

Not sure how the droid is overly thick when it's pretty much exactly the same thickness as an iphone. But yeah if you don't need the keyboard then the Eris makes some sense, as it's also cheaper.

Antelope Audio DACS
Yeah that tends to happen when a company uses a shitty shared hosting account. Probably got booted for some random excess usage, either that or they didn't pay a bill.

The Ballad of Blu-ray and Scratchy Old Film
Seems like a worthless rant to me, any movie that more than a few people would ever want is very likely out on dvd. DVD's should last for a very long time if they are handled properly. The real problem with getting older and smaller films onto new formats isn't the new formats its the piss poor quality and lack of availability of the original source material. Before the rise of dvd there really wasn't much financial incentive to keep source material in good quality as the studios figured they'd never make anymore money once the theater runs ended. So often times the originals were tossed in some warehouse to be lost forever. With dvd and now blu-ray and digital distribution the studios actually have financial incentive to keep their originals in good quality (or likely in some digital format backed-up in several locations). So while not much can be done about films of the past, it's a very good sign for the films of today.

Really L3000 type bass? If so I'm probably in for a pair as well. Purk hurry up and buy a pair so you can confirm or deny this .

yeah the multi-touch thing on the Droid is weird, as 3rd party apps have it just none of the default android google stuff supports it.
