The website, Sportsnetwork.com, has been hacked, apparently, by Chinese nationalists looking to put western civilisation straight! When originally hacked on Sunday, sportsnetwork.com had their front page removed and replaced with Chinese slogans stating the hacker’s disgust at how the media had apparently twisted the ongoing situation in Tibet.

It appears that a couple, aptly named Mr and Mrs “Boring” are planning to sue Google for “intentional” invasion of privacy with Google’s Street initiative, because they have the word “private” on a lane next to their house. They want damages because their property has apparently diminished [...]
In a recent article on CNet, there are apparently rumours of Skype to be sold off by eBay to Google. But would Google actually want Skype? On one hand, you have Google Talk – admittedly not the biggest IM client out there, but it does already support VoIP. On the other hand you have an [...]
I guess it seems as though the consumer is starting to vote with it’s feet. Available in the US only, at the moment, Amazon MP3 are starting to make a mark in Apple’s music store dominance.
