Partially Moved In and News

Thanks to a very dear friend and a young relative, I am partially moved into my new place. One small hiccup and I resolved that problem. I liked my old place; but, the new digs have many advantages, mainly, it is a little larger.

The Telegraph - Text messages direct to your contact lens. Sort of like Google glasses except nobody has to look at them except you.

CNNTech - Time - Why 'Six Strikes' could be a nightmare for anyone with shared Internet. Basically, Internet carriers are going to be responsible if you download illegal material. If you share an internet connection you will be held responsible so you better keep an eye on those who share a connection with you. You watch, this will be used so that people want to have their own individual ISP because Starbucks will not want to be held accountable for what you do.

Mail Online - Paedophiles who trade child porn will not be sent to prison: New sentencing laws suggest community punishments. It sort of speaks for itself, in England the penalty for child pornography will be community service. Funny, this is the same nation that intends to give classes on pornography to children in school.

Detroit News - NHTSA gets White House OK to mandate vehicle 'black boxes'. I had previously written about how this was coming; but, the article also says something very interesting. It turns out that most cars already have them, did they bother telling you that when you bought your car?
