Obama FCC to abandon net neutrality?

politics

I’m a little concern about this. FCC to abandon net neutrality? Please reconsider.

Obama FCC Expected to Abandon Net Neutrality, Universal Internet

On Sunday, the Washington Post reported that the Federal Communications Commission is expected to abandon its pledges to protect Net Neutrality and to ensure universal, affordable broadband. The story cites anonymous insiders confirming that FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is “leaning toward” siding with the most powerful phone and cable lobbyists on a crucial decision: whether the FCC will have any authority to protect an open Internet and make it available to all.

Had net neutrality not be in place in time when YouTube started, there will likely be no YouTube. Net neutrality enabled the possibility of start ups competing at leveled ground with the bigger corporations.

Hilarious video of how to use the internet

Entertain Me

Crazy old internet video from 1997.

MASTER OF THE INTERNET

Is this supposed to make the internet seem cool? I like the part where they say it only takes 10 minutes. Watch how slow it loads too.

the ENTIRE Internet is being upgraded and YOU can get it at NO COST.

This summer the Internet will change to Web 2.0 functionality – WILL YOU?

I wanted to reply this:

Dear Sir,

I clicked on the link and followed the instructions but my Hotmail still looked like Mail 2002. Please advise.

I would be most glad to upgrade the internet to the latest version 2.0.

Best Regards,
Mr. Dew

South Park parodies YouTube stars

Uncategorized

South Park parodies YouTube stars on their latest episode.

Viacom continues to pursue a $1 billion lawsuit against Google’s YouTube for allowing video piracy. On Viacom’s Comedy Central, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone aren’t helping their corporate parent’s legal case. In last night’s episode, Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny asked themselves “How Do We Make Money on the Internet?” and predictably, they find it difficult — just like YouTube. This leads to a South Park scene straight out of Viacom CEO Philippe Daumann’s dreams as, one by one, the viral-video sensations that made YouTube so big are destroyed.

My Windows Live Hotmail icon somehow turned into Gmail

Uncategorized

Probably due to an Internet Explorer favicon bug, my Windows Live Hotmail favicon turned into a Gmail favicon. Previously it was an ESPN favicon.

This is not the first time I see the wrong favicon. Back then, when using Internet Explorer 6 in Windows XP, I remember encountering something like it. I guess they haven’t really fixed that bug up.

Why is it better to masturbate with a Mac?

Uncategorized

Dave Chappelle tells porn-lovers to make the switch. With larger screens, brighter colors and, erm, cooler dashboard, it’s all a porn-lover could ever want. Another great Mac-switching parody.
