Those older than 18 are entitled to have their absentee votes counted in the state where they last lived, no matter how long ago that was. Polls suggest razor-thin margins in several battleground states, and votes coming in from abroad could make the difference.

When Oracle reported earnings in December, the company showed a 13% growth in new software licenses, and management was cautiously optimistic that the worse is over. "There has been an upturn, but it hasn't been dramatic," said Larry Ellison. A couple weeks later, the Siebel Systems CEO -- the more optimistic Tom Siebel -- said: "Across the board in the fourth quarter, we saw an improved business climate for investing in information technology."

Jeremiah writes "Amidst the public ballyhoo about how rampant P2P piracy is costing the music business its very life (gasp! NO!), BMI announced it collected a record level of revenue and royalty payout to its artist members. From their press release: "BMI has reported revenues of $673 million for the 2004 fiscal year, an increase of nearly $43 million, 6.8% over the prior year. Royalties of more than $573 million were distributed to our songwriters, composers and music publishers, an increase of $40 million or 7.5% from the previous year, and the most ever paid by an American PRO." Another interesting tidbit: "During the period 1995-2004, BMI had an average annual revenue growth rate of 9%..." If I read this right, BMI has been reporting solid growth over the last nine years, which makes me question the industry's claims about P2P. Either P2P ate into their growth (not mentioned), they found a way to cope with it (plausible), or it may actually help music sales. Whatever. Reminds me a bit of a spec I did for a life-insurance company's radio ad: Money , Money, Money (mp3 file)."

Approach to Financial Management and
Helps People Make Sense of Their Money
09/21/2004 08:41 AM
Marking the largest development effort for Microsoft(R) Money since the personal finance software was launched 13 years ago, Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq: MSFT) today announced Microsoft Money 2005 Premium, Deluxe, Standard and Small Business. Completely rebuilt to simplify daily financial tasks, Money 2005 is designed to answer the growing number of consumer requests for a simple solution that addresses the three primary areas of financial concern: tracking account balances, monitoring spending and paying bills. Consumers today have less time than ever to spend managing their finances, which has contributed to the number of American households banking online -- due to its convenience and efficiency -- reaching nearly 33 million.(1) Money 2005 builds on this trend by helping people access all their accounts in one place and providing automated tools that reduce or eliminate the manual entry required by traditional personal finance software.

Congestion Woes


Congestion Woes 10/29/2003 01:39 PM
Concerns around the effects that too many users may have on Wi-Fi networks seems to be the hot topic these days: This writer suggests a somewhat unclear idea revolving around a "congestion charge" and technology that will turn off clients that aren't being used. I just don't think congestion is going to be that huge of a problem. It will be in certain circumstances like at trade shows and possibly on a busy street where every shop offers Wi-Fi. But otherwise I just don't expect it to be debilitating....

Woes of Big Holidays


Woes of Big Holidays 12/27/2004 08:25 AM

Egad.  One down, one more to go.  I hate big holidays because the big ones are actually three in one: Blah Eve, Blah itself, and After-Blah Sales Day.

On Blah Eve, my wife expects me to pay attention to her.  That means lots of kisses and lip service.  I wonder if the word Eve being the name of the first gal had something to do with this.

On the Blah Day, my wife expects me to pay attention to the family.  In modern terms, this means doing far more TV watching than my usual 30 minutes a day.  The worst part is that TV programming really sucks on such days.  Radio is even worse.

On the After-Blah Sales Day, my wife expects me to be invisible.  Actually she is the one that does the disappearing act from dawn til dusk.  If I happen to get up too early, I get the deathray look.  This morning, I got up just as she was putting on her shoes to go out shopping.  Oops.
