Adsense Clickfraud . . .

While all the lemmings focus on something as weird as the Google spreadsheet, serious folks are looking at the real money - just add up what's falling through the sieve using conservative estimates.  Something in me goes off when the fox is counting the chickens - and we're taking guys like Seth Jayson more seriously around here just because of the sheer size of this thing.  How loud does a hew and cry have to get before it goes mainstream nets?  Another Digg.

Auction 66

What's grabbing the attention of such big players is that the spectrum is considered particularly valuable [ . . . ] The winners could build three or more new nationwide wireless networks, offering voice service, broadband Internet access, or mobile TV services. "This spectrum is wide open to applications [ . . . ] Virtually any wireless [technology] can be put in." Hmm . . . June 29 - it's about time! From Digg to here. Clearwire Leap Wireless

Boing Boing . . .

After a stretch we thought we'd surf around and lo and behold it seems bullyism still runs rampant.  Goddam bullies . . . we can't stand those stiffs!  They've bitten off more than they can chew with Doctorow though - love this comment - Their business seems to depend on people not knowing how much they suck.  So true of the creed.

Roblimo Sez "No Matter What . . .

Microsoft does, it will never have a software monopoly again."  And that sounds right (and good) to me - thankfully the only party with that kind of power appears to be 'building an ecosystem'.  And so many others are trying to fit their visions into our habits.  It's going to be a very interesting year!   Redux via Slyck.

Janice Spark Sez . . .

As consumer power continues to grow, brands will become more important - and more fragile - than ever before. For many organisations, the idea that a brand is created through interaction between staff, customers and other people, rather than being defined by the marketing department, is a difficult one to come to grips with. But exciting times lie ahead for those companies who learn how to harness consumer power for the mutual benefit of company and customer.  Sounds right on to me.  Via SlyckScratch.

Solar Flare . . .

Beware!  Solar flares send radiation to Earth in about 8 minutes. Hours later, clouds of charged particles can engulf the planet. If the magnetic field of a storm is oriented opposite to our planet's protective magnetic field, gaps are created and radiation leaks to the planet's surface, potentially threatening astronauts aboard the International Space Station, sometimes shorting out satellites, and even causing terrestrial power grids to trip.  Hmmm . . . Please just be mellow and do your thing Mr. Sun!  We've had quite a go . . .  Here's a Quicktime of the latest.  Via RefDesk.
