    in Mac OS X's Address Book app, you can pick a contact as 'me' meaning you, the currently logged in user. This may just be a way to also have a contact in address book labeled 'mobile me', possibly to temporarily change your contact info for while you are traveling or on the road.
    OR
    It could be the much anticipted "home on iPod" or similar. This is where you can just keep your home directory on your iPod, and carry it with you. Allowing you to log into ANY mac (supporting it) and have all your pref.'s and documents (stuff in your home folder) with you.

    ichat is already jabber compatible. Version 3.1 is, not sure when it came in though.

  6. read the Judges comments in the pdf. on Federal Judge Rules Against Intelligent Design · · Score: 2, Informative

    This is a very specific case, even though this forum has "evolved" into a god vs. darwin debate. The school board members used devious tactics to get other board members to vote for the ID inclusion in science class. This Judge did NOT say that ID is a waste of time, did NOT say that evolution is anti-religion, did NOT say that ID isnt a worthwhile discussion. ID does not belong in Science class, and it was put their by board members with an agenda that didnt serve the best interest of Dover school district. sidebar- The pope himself said that evolution does NOT contadict Catholisism (paraphrase)

    -1 troll? OK i will admit i was nervous as this was my first ever post, plus it was a "first post", and the result was that I crashed and burned. The text, "The BBC News Online has an interesting story about a project to put traditional medical knowledge online..." should have read, "The BBC News Online has an interesting story about a project GOING ON IN INDIA to put traditional medical knowledge online." My confusion was further enhanced by the fact that the languages being used were what I would expect the UK to use. I understand it now, but I really am not a troll. I really was confused. Sorry. I will probably go back under my bridge now and keep to myself.

    OK i RTFA, but the blurb on /. is misleading. I read it to say that the BBC is putting the info online. And wouldn't Hindi or the other 15 languages in that country be used? I am confused to say the least.
