I don't think more regulation is needed. But there must be an existing and legitimate regulation that is odds with the notion that Comcast would degrade Vonage traffic on its "Internet" service when it started offering a competing Comcast phone service.
If people find value and want to spend the money, they're going to spend it. Furthermore if nobody else buys the stuff, then it becomes even more attractive for people to buy it. This happens until equilibrium.
With IEEE you can't get the article in question anywhere else.
For news, you can read the "michael jackson is dead" story from anywhere. Furthermore, society benefits as a whole if we can get away from the news sources we currently have.

They'll need more room on City Line Ave... or they could move into that new huge building that could pretty much block out the sun if they wanted to.
I'm surprised Alexa didn't do it earlier.

Your example that Apple tried webapps and failed seems like the best response to "how will people respond to the cloudbook?"
However I have to wonder, would Apple still have failed if Mobile Safari had better caching, real tabs and a real internet connection?

so when is dom2 coming out?

Given its political influence, I'm surprised Wikileaks hasn't been relegated to Tor yet.
>> It would be interesting to see how far a manual trojan could get on Linux...
Well, just look at how successful the manual .sig virus was on slashdot

Just call Visa and reverse the charge.
What's the problem?
... wait until the Chrome OS PC comes out.
could you please be more specific about these policies and link to the posts? or provide a relevant google query?
I would like to read more.
they're not stupid, but don't come demanding my help when they flood, or don't tell me they were surprised.
asking for help... that's another story.
waaaa... I live in a river, below sea level (or on the flood coast of florida for that matter) who will come save me?
waaaa... I paid too much for my house and assumed I'd always have a job, now things changed, who will come save me?
