    Google already has a feature that does this. Search for anything, click on "More Search Tools" (If not already displayed) and then click on "Related Searches" (two below "All Results").

  4. Re:$500 Million in Loan Guarantees on Solar Company Folds After $0.5B In Subsidies · · Score: 2

    ... The company was given $500 million in loan guarantees... If the company went broke and never got the loans no government money was spent.

    From the article: The company was offered $535 million in loan guarantees. They actually borrowed $527 million. That amount is included in their bankruptcy filing.

  7. Engadget on Ask Slashdot: Info On Upcoming Handhelds? · · Score: 2

    Engadget. They reliably stay current on all new tech, review newly released portables (and sometimes before release), and filter out the crazy rumors that other sites seem to thrive on. They have a specifically mobile site as well: http://mobile.engadget.com/

    They have RSS, and RSS via tag, I use google reader to capture everything android. Subscribe to: http://www.engadget.com/tag/android/rss.xml ... and this is available for any tag on the site. I believe you can filter tags out of the main site as well, handy for those Apple keynote days if you're not interested.

    "Perhaps because of those tough requirements, only Philips has officially entered the competition thus far – and that was nearly two years ago, back in September 2009. Over the past 18 months, its 910 lm design, which Philips says operates with an efficacy of 93.4 lm/W at a warm-white color temperature of 2727 K and offers a color rendering index of 93, has been put through extensive testing."

    With the 3G model, Verizon offers you 100MB per month for free. I believe the offer lasts for two years after purchase. And I'm sure you can pay for more.
