[My take: I'm not so sure that Moore is giving up tens of millions of box office revenues on this one, as AP suggests. Getting theatrical distribution for a documentary is hard, even for Moore, and it maybe this one just didn't look like it was going to sell well enough to justify that. So it may really be a case of free online vs straight to DVD. And for Moore, for whom political impact ...

For years, we've been hearing telco execs, telco lobbyists and politicians screaming over the coming death of the internet due to an "exaflood" of bandwidth, as things like internet video and bittorrent totally overwhelmed the internet infrastructure. There was little proof that this was actually an issue, and plenty of evidence suggesting that ordinary infrastructure upgrades would more than handle all expected growth. And, in the last few months we've been seeing more and more ...

[File under respected opposition] David Heinemeier Hansson, Jason Fried’s business partner at 37signals, begs to differ with the notion that Web companies shouldn't charge for their products. In a very entertaining speech (video below), he makes his case: Forget using free to go mass and hope you'll become Facebook (or be bought by them). Instead, he says, focus on a small market and charge money. There are many ways to have a price in web ...

After downloading and installing Google’s new Windows-based browser Chrome – Google already revealed some background info via their comic –, like many of you, I gave it a first test run. A browser is the kind of thing you’ll end up using all day long, if you do end up using it. You don’t want it to get in the way at all, and yet you wish it has all the features you really think ...

A journalist friend of mine once said about Google "they are a freak of a company, the best advertising business ever built is funding the largest collection of mad scientists ever assembled". I love that description of Google and have used it many times. But it suggests that Google is chaos and I don't think that is true at all.
