Service expected to go live in January 2009 and will allow visitors to stream content on-demand for free or purchase music tracks with pre-roll, mid-roll and post-roll ads. For many inside the UK and out the BBC has some of the best music programming around (my personal favorite is Radio 1's Breezeblock). Unfortunately, up until now fans have had to rely on manually recorded shows which oftentimes aren't exactly made with the highest of quality ...

So, people do read those EULAs (End User License Agreement), after all. Maybe Google just wanted to, you know, make sure. Either way, someone noticed some fishy language in the user agreement for the company's new beta Chrome browser. Under point 11, "Content Licence [sic] from you," the company wrote, 11.1 You retain copyright and any other rights that you already hold in Content that you submit, post or display on or through the Services. ...

I keep thinking that I’m completely done with standardized tests. I took the SAT and ACT in high school and thought how great it would be to not take anymore tests. But I wasn’t counting on placement tests and the other opportunities my professors found to pull out the Scantron sheets in college, and I certainly wasn’t thinking about the placement exams necessary for graduate school and many jobs. As we get ready to head ...

Today’s employers seem to want more of our time than ever. In the US, the average worker puts in 55 hours a week; in Europe and other places where short working weeks have long been the norm, workers are struggling to hold on to their reasonable schedules as employers look to the US model in an effort to increase their bottom lines. Email, text messaging, cell phones, and Blackberries keep us tethered to the office ...

Today in the Guardian, the story of two plucky youngsters in 1966 who built their own homebrew A-bomb: ...the two amateurs were ironically aided by information published as part of President Dwight Eisenhower's "Atoms for Peace" program, which spread word of the benefits of non-military nuclear power around the world. And Atoms for Peace was only the most prominent example of a fad for everything nuclear that propelled a huge amount of technical detail into ...

Once upon a time my old website was listed by US Government firewalls as 'criminal' for containing instructions on how to build an a-bomb, which included centrifuging uranium by spinning it in a bucket over your head. Hmm.

The dust hasn’t even settled on Chrome’s release and already Mozilla is feeling the pressure. The company today released a series of benchmarks showing Firefox 3.1 will be faster than anything Google can muster with Chrome. Chrome is running V8, an open source Javascript engine, which Google claims, is faster than anything currently offered on the Web. And based on our tests of Chrome, we tend to agree. But in the upcoming release of Firefox ...

Google's Picasa is seeing updates on both the web- and desktop-based versions of the popular photo management application. The biggest new feature is coming to Picasa Web Albums in the form of people tagging, a Facebook-style tool that lets you tag faces in your photos by name and then view pictures of that person by simply searching. The difference between this and Facebook is that Google identifies all of the faces in your pictures automatically ...

Google Chrome is a warning shot over the bows of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, and Opera. The open-source software project, to be detailed later Tuesday at Google's headquarters in Mountain View, Calif., should dispel any lingering thoughts that the browser wars are over. To be sure, it's less cutthroat now than in the 1990s, but one of technology's most powerful companies is now on the battlefield. So how does Chrome change the competitive landscape? Google ...
