Hinched

Posted In Official |

"Married"Today I got married.


It was a rather surreal day, like every Saturday morning, I woke up the same time I normally do for work, so instead I did a little surfing and then tuned into the Fabio / Grooverider Show.



I then posted on my Jaiku, broke my high score on Desktop Tower Defence, the Mother-in-Law dropped around catered sandwiches (which we're awesome) and my Mum and Dad dropped in to take some pre-photos.


All in all, it was a good day. Rather relaxing, not too much stress, I just went with the flow and all was good. Personally, I'm more excited and anxious for our Honeymoon - Around in World in 40 Days.

{mosimage}RawSugar started as a social bookmarking site, which failed to gain traction, tried paying users, slipped further, fired their employees and sold their assets, got declared dead by the blogosphere and now miraculously start a fresh with an entirely new site.



According to Mashable, "RawSugar is back, baby, and the sequel has more action, more explosions and mindblowing special effects. Or perhaps not. The new version, launched on Thursday night, actually looks more like an off-the-shelf template than ever before. That 1990s stock photography isn’t winning anyone over, either.



The site, now seemingly owned by the book site Suggestica, is composed of user-organized content channels, ranked by popularity. I can only really find one good channel right now - Web 2.0 - and that page just feels kind of Digg-like."

The Death of Palm ?

Posted In |

{mosimage}Palm announced today that a "new devices will run the Palm OS on a Linux platform which has been under development for several years.



The new platform will support existing Palm OS applications. Palm has sold off its PalmOS, but recently purchased a perpetual license for the Palm OS5 "Garnet" operating system."




Which makes me think, well why did they buy BeOS and shelf it, when they initially said that they were reworking the code for the PalmOS. I'm yet to see anything useful come from any Linux distro, even the embedded systems have their warts. Could this be the death of Palm ? Could this mean when Apple's iPhone drops in 2008, that it'll be the new PDA of choice.

{mosimage}"Eleven of Australia's second-tier telcos and Internet service providers have banded together to fight against what they describe as a "campaign of misinformation" by Telstra on the subject of telecommunications regulation.



AAPT/PowerTel, Austar, iiNet, Internode, Macquarie Telecom, Primus, Telarus, TransACT, Unwired and Westnet today launched their Tell The Truth Telstra or "T4" campaign in Canberra to "educate" legislators and the public about what they describe as "the facts behind the state of broadband and telecommunications regulation in Australia".
