What we have here is the UK version of “I’m a Mac & I’m a PC.” Now I do not believe one word from most of these advertisements because they are quite misleading, however, they are still fun to watch.

Facebook says users should exercise caution when adding applications. But a malicious program, masquerading as a harmless application, could potentially harvest personal data. The popular social networking site allows users to add a variety of applications to their profile. Personal details of Facebook users could potentially be stolen, the BBC technology programme ‘Click’ has found.

Or at least that is the implication, and it also lets you keep your details private from the rest of the world. Facebook is the darling of the moment, allowing friends to stay in touch, post photos, and share fun little games and quizzes.

Facebook has said that any programs which violate their terms will be removed, but lets face it, millions of applications are added every minute by thousands of users, imagine how long it would take to go through them all.

The company could give no guarantee that customers would get the theoretical maximum 24Mbps speed promised by ADSL2+.

BT said ADSL2+ would reach a “potential footprint of 10 million homes and businesses by the spring of 2009″. “BT appear to have reverted to the sloth of the Home Highway period, rather than building upon their more recent successes in extending DSL’s UK availability so widely,” said Mr Fogg. Writing on his blog: “If this is BT’s 21st century network then those fibre to the home networks are for the 22nd century.” Some ISPs in the UK, such as Sky and O2, have already begun to offer ADSL2+ in the UK by deploying their own technology in exchanges.

Jupiter analyst Ian Fogg said the roll-out was “tardy” and available to “a tiny fraction” of UK households. I agree. I’m still stuck with 1mb broadband, when they will update my speed?!

Any hopes Blu-ray had of some kind of giant sales increase due to the end of the format war with HD proved otherwise. One possibility that could be reached is that despite the format war being over and a winner being ‘crowned’, people still aren’t ready to ditch the traditional DVD in favour of the next-generation Blu-ray, why? Because they’re too damn expensive, maybe when the economy stabilises and the prices go down there might be a real increase in sales.

At least now the focus in terms of promotion and advertising the light can be placed upon one format, which might resonate better with the general public and slowly begin to sway them towards the new format. For me, the price needs to be halved before I’m swayed and I’m sure many people agree.

The company unveiled that top industry leaders, such as LG Electronics, Sony Ericsson, Toshiba, Motorola, Verizon Wireless and others are supporting the Open Screen Project, together with BBC, MTV Networks and NBC Universal.

Adobe will also be removing restrictions on the use of files in SWF and FLV format and will also publish detailed information about the inner workings of its Flash player and streaming Flash technologies (the Adobe Flash Cast protocol).

The Open Screen Project is meant to improve Internet experiences on television, personal computers, mobile devices and computer electronics, whilst removing licensing fees previously associated with mobile versions of Flash. Adobe has taken an aggressive step to ensure its Flash and AIR technologies are not left behind when it comes to mobile platforms.
