- PBS | I, Cringely . High-Tech is Going Through Another Revolution, and Ms. Fiorina Couldn't Keep Up
Don't agree with much else in this post, but this is true: real broadband to the home (i.e. 10Mbps symmetrical) will trigger a lot of economic growth through apps and services we can't even imagine in today's bandwidth starbed world of 1-3 Mbps up and 128-640K down - "The coming tech revolution comes down primarily to bandwidth -- leveraging the dark fiber that was stuffed underground in huge quantities five years ago to support communication services that weren't economically feasible at that time but we were all so stoked we didn't care. "

- Techdirt:Fired For Blogging? Not Exactly...
Sounds about right - "Now, of course, you can argue that what they said should not have been a firable offense, and that companies need to recognize that employees now have much louder virtual megaphones to use in bitching about their employment situation, but people aren't getting "fired for blogging.""
