Regarding the banning of camera phones -And – with a delicious twist of irony – the latest to join the club is no less than the world’s third-largest handset manufacturer, Samsung Electronics. The Korean consumer electronics giant has banned the use of camera phones from some of its most sensitive factories, fearing that they could be used for industrial espionage.

New looking PC here although a bit weird not giving it a better display. Fits in a bit with what I want around the house. however, it has a fan at the back!!!!!!
Interesting site here, that seems UK based, that reviews all the plug in TV cards for your PC. I’m sure this side of PC’s will grow especially if you can set it to record programmes like the TiVo
Interesting website on the Millenium bridge here which explains why it wobbled (basically when we walk 10% of force is sideways rather than main force which, of cause, is up and down) apparently bridges have wobbled before but no one bothered to report it to engineers! Anyway its good to know that 200 engineers designing a bridge did get ‘it sorted’. I wonder how many engineers Brunel employed for his bridges.
A good story here about google and evil. Here is an interesting excerpt here:-
“What is this?” asks a visitor squinting at the form he must sign before proceeding to the cafeteria at Google’s Mountain View, California, headquarters. “An NDA? To have lunch?”
The receptionist shrugs. “This is Google,” she says. “They’re crazy that way.”
So much for free thinking folks!
