2G phones disappearing in japan

2G mobile phones account for the majority of the handsets currently functional worldwide. They only work on GSM, CDMA, TDMA or PCD networks and offer less advantages than the new generation phones which come with support for 3G. Most probably, as time goes by, all 2G networks will be completely replaced with new 3G (or equivalent) ones.Japan, one of the most evolved countries in terms of telecommunications, is now offering us a glimpse of how the mobile future looks like: no 2G phones. AFP reports that, in the first month of 2008, not a single 2G handset was sold on the Japanese market, all the commercialized mobile phones being 3G enabled.

thai buddhist monks urged off women on internet

Buddha means ‘awake,’ and some Buddhist monks seem to have taken the name a tad too far and literally. On Tuesday, Thai officials have asked monks to avoid using social networking sites to woo women, according to Reuters.

the software awards scam

I put out a new product a couple of weeks ago. This new product has so far won 16 different awards and recommendations from software download sites. Some of them even emailed me messages of encouragement such as “Great job, we’re really impressed!”. I should be delighted at this recognition of the quality of my software, except that the ’software’ doesn’t even run. This is hardly surprising when you consider that it is just a text file with the words “this program does nothing at all” repeated a few times and then renamed as an .exe. The PAD file that described the software contains the description “This program does nothing at all”. The screenshot I submitted (below) was similarly blunt and to the point:
