Okay, this may be inappropriate but it is too funny to pass! Im looking for an investor for my new product “the handjobberâ€. There are plenty of dildos for women out there, but there are no good masturbators for men. until now. The masturbator is designed using precise aluminum machining and plastic molding. I figure […]
Problems with ICANN
The common misconception is the Internet is all de-centralization. It is actually both; Above IP, it is and should be absolutely decentralize but when you dealing with core infrastructure (IP & DNS), like it or not, that’s is centralized.

Why blogging is going to kill the traditional media
…because traditional media like WSJ will never publish article like this, even though it is written by its top reporter: (via Dewayne-Net). Being a foreign correspondent in Baghdad these days is like being under virtual house arrest. Forget about the reasons that lured me to this job: a chance to see the world, explore the […]
