1. It is different in that the low-speed delayed delivery makes publishing (read: bandwidth) costs much cheaper, and it stacks with BitTorrent.
2. It is different in that the listener doesn't have to schedule their listening around a broadcaster. The TiVo metaphor is apt.
3. It is different in that it is built around mobile. Shoutcast is great, unless you are in your car on an hour and a half commute on 285.
Google Copernicus Center is hiring Google is interviewing candidates for engineering positions at our lunar hosting and research center, opening late in the spring of 2007. This unique opportunity is available only to highly-qualified individuals who are willing to relocate for an extended period of time, are in top physical condition and are capable of surviving with limited access to such modern conveniences as soy low-fat lattes, The Sopranos and a steady supply of oxygen.
"I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing." "But," say Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED." "Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that" and promply vanishes in a puff of logic. -- Douglas Adams, from 'A Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy'
Seems as though they could easily implement @yourdomain.com email addresses using the Gmail interface. That would be slick.
You can do this already: 1) Let your own domain email (example) me@lastname.eu forward to you@gmail.com 2) And set me@lastname.eu as the reply adres in gmail!
Works fine for me, and if my inbox is full i just forward me@lastname.eu to you_part2@gmail.com for example. Doesn't get any better:)
I dont know much about these things.. When i said power and telephone p2p models, i meant something like the new WPAN protocol.
Example; if every mobile-phone had a relay thingie (like it is in the army), in besides utilizing the big cellular network, you call cheaper. Or if enough people have these, for free.
I called id P2P but maybe thats the wrong name for it.
Though it can be bad advertizing when these things go wack while the lots of them are not yet bought,
Its common for companys to 'give' hardware a shorter lifetime to ensure they buy a new one afterwards.
Philips the great dutch lightbulb maker, almost went down because one specific lamp that they produced only malfunctioned once per hunderd years. It took a while before they changed the pricing to ' absurd high'.

I once read a interesting story about the economy of the future.
We had lots of things, then communism, then socialism or something, then democracy, (present day)
and then there is a economy that drives on information (= money), and is very similar to the open source idea at the same time (at least between consumers)
Eventualy, every consumer wil have a small powerplant in his home, and shares and takes energy like the P2P model. This goes for telephone networks etcetera.
Does anyone know how this economy was called? Or a book/website about it? I dont remember.:(

This ought to be the best nonsense article i've read on slashdot ever. I'd say 'they should not do that' and 'who cares', but then i realized that it is just me - who is visiting the wrong site. Sorry about that.

Improve the metric system?
Either that is a multiword-typo, or the author is a real American.
(i mean -- thinking that ABN-Amro, ING Group, Shell or Philips are American)
This was at least until some time ago: AFAIK it hasn't changed.
It is also noticable in (wifi) routers made outside the usa, wich have a flag encryption limit flag embedded.
Encryptions above 128 wich where made inside the USA are permitted though! Only import is limited.
Talking about god and stuff; from Carl Sagan:
(part 1)(part 2)^ Neither one isn't more correct than the other one.
But still: i dont believe in god.
Maybe he just disappeared in a puff of logic together with the wail while falling down.
Hooray!!
