Well people, it was fun while it lasted. Green fields and sunny pastures may soon be a thing of the past as TiVo has officially announced the Domino’s widget - a fast food ordering service that allows TiVo subscribers to order from Domino’s without ever having to get up from their couches. Ugh. The Domino’s widget walks users though the Domino’s menu right on the TV screen, providing separate sections for pizzas, side orders and ...

As the car companies ask for $50 billion, shouldn't the social network use the same government route for extra funding? About 125 million people now rely on Facebook.

Filed under: Chevrolet, GMYou can never be certain about the information you get from fourth-hand, unconfirmed sources. General Motors will be releasing its third quarter financial results this morning, and it will be ugly for sure. Rick Wagoner will also be announcing more cuts that will likely include layoffs among engineering staff. GM is expected to cancel or delay almost all future product plans in an attempt to staunch its current cash burn rate. One ...

Filed under: EV/Plug-in, Green Culture, Hybrid, Chevrolet, GM, Legislation and Policy, Green Daily Click above for high-res gallery of the 2011 Chevy Volt The issue of the sound, or lack thereof to be specific, of hybrids, electric cars and everything in-between isn't likely to go away any time soon. The problem, as some see it, is that electric motors do not make the same kind of noise that internal combustion engines make, and this could ...

If the future dashboard and GPS-assisted engine weren't incentive enough to consider picking up a Chevrolet Volt in 2010, Congress has gifted future owners with an added bonus: a $7,500 tax break passed as part of last week's bailout package. The credit applies to any vehicle with a battery rated at 6kWh or higher, placing it far enough in the future for the auto industry to swallow, I guess; the Prius's 1.3kWh battery doesn't qualify. ...

Filed under: Transportation The 2011 Chevy Volt has been officially unveiled this morning and we are pleased to note that the new pictures are much more flattering than the "glamour shots" released a week or so ago. The interior of the Volt features a driver-configurable LCD instrument display, 7-inch touch screen information display (for climate and "infotainment" control), Bluetooth, USB and optional GPS. Of course, what makes this vehicle noteworthy is the sheer plug-in-hybridness of ...

Hace casi un mes Joi Ito escribió un interesantísimo artículo acerca de los problemas de apostar por el internet en el móvil, considerando que Joi es japonés y vive en Japón, creo que tiene un punto de vista bastante informado. El problema es que a diferencia de los proveedores de acceso en casas y oficinas, la mayoría de las personas tienen acceso a internet por un número bastante bajo de empresas que inclusive están presentes ...
