It seems to me that lots of people are switching over to mobile phone text messaging. In addition phones are now capable of exchanging multi-media content (speaking to how IM client file transfer just doesn't work).
Somehow, despite the use of various technologies, these messages seem to pass among all the mobile providers. Could the same business model or whatever standards, software, and services provide a solution or inspiration for this problem?
From the above article:
Donahue looked at bone samples from bears of different ages. Although humans lose bone mass as they age, Donahue found that bears of all ages have equally strong and flexible bones--even though their bones get a five-month vacation from exercise every year.
Wow. This line of research could have amazing benefits in bedrest, aging, and osteoporosis. Goes to show the benefits of exospecies medical research.
The death penalty should not even be considered for non-violent criminals. Intellectual property theft, lost productivity, and denial of service may cost a lot of money, but how much money is a human life worth? $100mil, $10bil? Will that number be adjusted for inflation next year? It's just wrong to assign a monetary value to a criminal's life.

Wrong. Maybe the end of free corporate-controlled content, but I for one believe human beings will continue to share information with each other.

Maybe some day people will actually realize that we are all different. Maybe some people are obese due to apnea, and others have apnea due to obesity. I think it's more likely that apnea and obesity are both huge risk factors to anyone's overall health, and would contribute to or trigger any other problems an individual may have or be predisposed to...

Nice idea-- it's a hassle to change your ISP and inform all your email contacts of your new address.
Why do most ISPs seem ignorant about the concept of forwarding email to your new address?
I'd like to see an initiative for email address provider independence, like the new FCC Wireless Local Number Portability [fcc.gov] rule, which allows you to keep your cell phone number when you switch wireless providers.
What role does the FCC play in email, anyways?

Just think! I could have spent the last 23 years of my life in a cubicle behind a computer screen, instead of just the last 5!

How about this
Now it doesn't matter what time it is, and we can save not just energy, but brain cells, creative souls, careers, and lives! (exercise saves lives)
