The T-Mobile G1: Can You Say Paradigm Shift?

The G1 event has come and gone and it looks like we’re seeing an epic paradigm shift in the mobile space. iPhone started the ball rolling and Android is about the finish the job. The change? Phones are now officially computers and the expectation for most users is that they behave in the same way a powerful laptop or desktop PC would perform, albeit in a considerably more compact package.
I was struck by something during the G1 presentation today and it took me a quite a while to figure out what it was. Back in 1997-98 while I was at Carnegie Mellon we were at a crossroads in IT. The web was taking off in a general way and email was king for college students. The school was full of computer clusters - some Mac, some PC, and some greenscreen Unix dumb terminals in the library running X Windows. While the Macs and PCs were easy to understand and run, you could just tell that the Unix machines were like an iceberg - 98% of the power is under water, unseen by the average user. Putting the G1 through its paces showed a intense attention to detail on the part of Google and a tacit promise from the phone that it was far more powerful than originally described. This is G1’s blessing and curse.

Apple ‘Brick’ Rumors

Another recipe of hot new rumors over the Internet suggests that a new Macbook update codenamed the ‘Brick’ might be in works and will officially be unveiled by Apple in mid-October this year.
While some speculate it to be the new Apple Macbook Touch, other have theories that the ‘Brick’ might be a software or even the highly rumored Apple iTablet. However there is no source to confirm either of these theories yet.

No te gusta la nueva version de Facebook?


Hace un tiempo que Facebook renovó su cara y es cierto que a muchos les agrado bastante, pero al parecer son mas a los que les disgusto, ya que han salido muchos posts en blogs e inclusive grupos masivos en el mismo Facebook rechazando la nueva versión, que es mucho mas complicada a primera vista, ya que todas las opciones están separadas, no como antes que teníamos todo en la misma ventana, aunque parezca increíble hay un descontento tan grande que existe un grupo de mas de 2 millones de usuarios y otro en Español de mas de 180 mil usuarios descontentos que gritan, No me gusta el nuevo Facebook!!

Windows 7 Beta para Octubre!


El debut de Windows 7 para todo el publico se espera para el 3 de junio del 2009, demasiado pronto creo yo, no quiero pensar que a Microsoft le pase una nueva mala jugada con esto de apresurar la salida de los sistemas operativos, ya que los únicos que pierden con todo esto son los usuarios.

It's Time for a New Terms of Service Regime
Yesterday's flare-up about the Terms of Service for Google's new browser Chrome, followed by the company's rapid backtracking on the demands it was making of users, left many people wondering about Google ToS in general.
Is it ok for service providers to require that they be exempt from the copyright norm of no re-use without explicit permission? We don't think it is.
