VoIP Prices Dropping Further And Further

VoIP Prices Dropping Further And Further 11/04/2003 01:20 PM
I still haven't signed up for a Vonage-style VoIP service, but as the prices keep dropping, it's getting increasingly difficult to resist. I have been playing with some of the various free offerings, though, like Skype and FWD. FWD (or a partner, it's a little unclear) set up a system where you could connect your FWD number to a regular phone number (in Washington State) for free. So, now, if you call my particular area code 360 phone number, my computer will ring (or, if I set it up, my IP phone). All for free. It appears that all the various VoIP players are realizing there's not much to distinguish one from another, and price s are dropping like crazy. The free services still limit what you can do, but it sounds like you can get a fairly full-featured pay service for around $20/month. For a while, I was surprised that the established telcos weren't playing more heavily in this space (even as slow as they move), but now I'm guessing that part of their strategy is to just wait and let all the independent VoIP players battle each other to death. Then, in the end, the carriers will determine who the winners are, and either buy them up, or try to copy the service directly. Whether or not that plan will work is a different question altogether. In the meantime, many are still waiting to see if Washington DC throws a wrench in all of this by regulating VoIP players and requiring them to pay all sorts of fees that will get passed along via higher prices.

The shots are so fantastic that I have to assume there's some trick photography here -- these shots are the kind of amazing that makes you rock with surprised laughter -- but if this is CG or more traditional trick photography, then it's so well executed that we can move our praise on to the effects-wizards. 8 .8MB Quicktime Link (Thanks, Christopher!)

Glenn Fleishman (~300 words)

I asked Apple to loan me a new PowerBook so I could test first-hand the hardware features they added in the latest refresh a few weeks ago: the scrolling trackpad, the Sudden Motion Sensor for hard drive protection, and increased backlighting for the keyboard. You can read about these features in Apple's marketing materials, but it's nice to test them first hand.

Apple continues to be marginalized. Now it's Palm's turn. The company is dropping Mac conduit suport in its upcoming Palm 6 ("Cobalt") operating system, says Brighthand. A third party will do it, but this is like adding $40 to the cost of your next handheld if you buy a Palm OS model and use a Mac. Disappointing, to say the least.

AOL Subscribers Dropping Fast, Still

AOL Subscribers Dropping Fast, Still
Exploring Sale 01/05/2004 06:10 AM
Remember the boom times when AOL would issue a press release every few months about them adding another million subscribers? It seems they aren't so proud heading back down the other side of the slope. The latest subscriber numbers for AOL don't look too good, and while Time Warner continues to insist that AOL is not for sale, the rumors are heating up again. The company lost 600,000 subscribers between September 2002 and September 2003. While they've been signing up some new subscribers to their broadband offering, they make a lot less money off of each of those subscribers. They also admit that they expect to lose a lot more subscribers, and some analysts are wondering why they don't seem to have any kind of plan to stop the losses. Meanwhile, others are predicting that someone like Microsoft or Barry Diller's InterActive Corp. may want to step in and buy AOL - but it's probably still a little too pricey for what they'd get.

Star Wars, A New Hope

Star Wars, A New Hope 04/01/2005 05:20 PM

I didn't realize how much the recent two Star Wars movies had sullied my once-fond memories of the first three films until I sat down to watch the original Star Wars. The acting is marginal at best and the story is a little clunky in places, but that's really beside the point, isn't it? The special effects have been digitally retouched and remastered on the DVD, but even without all that, I can see why SW was such a huge deal when it appeared in theatres in the late 70s. Space opera indeed. And the last scene with the X-Wing fighters and the Death Star -- don't worry, I won't give the ending away if you haven't seen it -- I've seen that scene about 30 times and it never fails to entertain; I know every line by heart almost and I was still on the edge of my seat.

New Star Wars trailer

New Star Wars trailer 03/14/2005 04:23 PM

Once every three years, the first trailer for yet another crappy George Lucas Star Wars movie is released somewhere to great fanfare. And each time, I watch said trailer and get all excited. It looks great, I'll say. Maybe it'll actually be good. My hopes start to rise. And then the movie comes out, Natalie Portman is transformed by Lucas' awful direction into the worst actress ever, and I leave the theatre disappointed that a cherished childhood institution has been handled in such a piss-poor manner. With the impending release of Episode III and the trailer during last night's episode of The OC, I have vowed not to get my hopes up. Never again, George Lucas, will you disappoint me.

However.

OMFG THE TRAILER FOR THE NEW STAR WARS MOVIE IS SOOO GREAT AND EXCITING AND THIS MOVIE IS GOING TO KICK SO MUCH ASS!!!

A torrent of the trailer is available here (smaller version here) and in QuickTime.

First the Kelly Clarkson thing and now this...I don't know what's going on here. I promise there's an interesting scientific explanation for all this. I'll write about it soon, honest.
