Can we finally just watch TV online?
Watching TV online is becoming a bit of a hobby of mine. I don’t have a TV anywhere in the house, and it is just so much more convenient to be able to watch what I want, when I do, without having to play around with channels or digital interfaces which seem built to be…

Typeroom: A Remote CMS?
Typeroom is a content management system which takes a different approach to traditional Content Management. Instead of using databases and managing content directly, Typeroom works more like Adobe Contribute by allowing traditional html pages to be edited in real time.

How Smart can a Link Be?
In a bid to test a bit of the Semantic Web, I have inserted a little line of Java script into my blog which should automatically turn many of my links Smart. Not 8 hours after I had inserted the script, I was contacted by Fraser at AdaptiveBlue, the creaters of the Smartlink technology, who…

Google-i-phone
On Engadget, I noticed a post about much-rumoured “Google Phone”. Apparently, they have it on good authority that the people over at Google are working on their own Mobile OS. The interesting bit, though, is that Google has been working very closely with Apple on the iPhone project. If they launch their own Google Phone…
