startlink: 'iCarly' Combines the Internet With TV
http://startlink.blogspot.com/2007/09/icarly-combines-internet-with-tv.html
Wednesday, September 19, 2007. ICarly' Combines the Internet With TV. What if, just like Andy Warhol said we would, we gave everyone their 15 minutes of fame? Fifteen minutes is a long time, though, particularly in an era of truncated attention spans. So how about 15 seconds? That ought to be enough time to squirt milk out of your eyes on worldwide television. Or play a trumpet while jumping up and down on a pogo stick. Or use a blender to make a spaghetti-and-meatball smoothie, then drink it. It's the u...

http://startlink.blogspot.com/2007/09/broadband-speeds-under-scrutiny.html
Friday, September 21, 2007. Broadband speeds under scrutiny. Broadband speeds in the UK are much slower than advertised by internet service providers, a study by Computeractive magazine has found. Some 3,000 readers took part in speed tests and 62% found they routinely got less than half of the top speed advertised by their provider. It is the latest in a series of questions over the way net firms advertise broadband services. Regulator Ofcom said it was aware of the issue and was "investigating". Avatar...

startlink: Nortel seeks revival through 'hyperconnectivity'
http://startlink.blogspot.com/2007/09/nortel-seeks-revival-through.html
Sunday, September 23, 2007. Nortel seeks revival through 'hyperconnectivity'. That's the essence of "hyperconnectivity," a term Nortel Networks has been trumpeting since the spring and that looms large over most developments at the communications equipment giant. But the trend it calls hyperconnectivity- Zafirovski and associates actually refer to it as a "megatrend"- gives more reason for optimism at a company that, by the admission of its own executive team, was only a few years ago able to offer "me t...

Health blog news: No evidence magnet therapy dulls pain: study
http://healthblognews.blogspot.com/2007/09/no-evidence-magnet-therapy-dulls-pain.html
Tuesday, September 25, 2007. No evidence magnet therapy dulls pain: study. They're embedded in everything from mattresses to insoles for shoes to wrist bands — but there is no definitive scientific evidence that static magnets can relieve chronic pain, researchers say. The theory from proponents is that a magnetic field increases blood flow, causing increased oxygen, nutrients, hormones and painkilling endorphins to be distributed to tissues in the affected area.

Science: Quantum communication: atoms talk long distance
http://litol.blogspot.com/2007/09/quantum-communication-atoms-talk-long.html
Thursday, September 27, 2007. Quantum communication: atoms talk long distance. US physicists have coaxed tiny artificial atoms into communicating in an advance that may lead to super-fast quantum computers, the researchers said on Wednesday. Quantum computers hold the promise of being enormously powerful, capable of solving in seconds problems that take today's fastest machines years to crack. In the past, the best qubits could do was talk to neighboring qubits, much like the childhood game of telephone.

Thursday, September 27, 2007. NASA asteroid probe launched from Florida. A pioneering spacecraft that could serve as a blueprint for future interplanetary transport blasted off aboard an unmanned Delta rocket on Thursday on a mission to explore two giant asteroids between Mars and Jupiter. The probe, called Dawn, will be the first to travel to and orbit two different celestial bodies, a maneuver that previously would have required far too much fuel to be possible.

Wednesday, September 19, 2007. Intel wants you to put the Internet in your pocket. The next big thing for Intel is little.
