Free Cell Phones

Google Envisions Free Cell Phones For All

Salvance writes "Google's CEO Eric Schmidt envisions a day when all cell phones are free if the user agrees to watch targeted ads. While he provides no specific plans for Google to give away phones, the implication is that he expects such moves in the future given Google's current pilot successes with delivering text ads on phones." From the article: "Schmidt also said his company was working on how to allow users to maintain basic control of their personal data. Currently, Google stores consumer data on hundreds of thousands of its own computers in order to provide additional services to individual users. The company is looking to allow consumers to export their Web search history or e-mail archives and move them to other sites, if they so choose."

Ticketmaster Records

Partial list of concerts and games I've seen over the past three years. I dug this up verifying my tickets for the current G Love tour, which I'm ready to go see Friday and Saturday nights after Thanksgiving. There's also a number of Chicago Fire games in here. I had a great time watching them, especially at Soldier Field in the playoffs.

3Com and IBM Team up to Release VoIP Platform on iSeries

I met with 3Com and IBM back in March to scope out the work to migrate from Linux on i386 to Linux on iSeries Power architecture. My company at the time, Nuasis, was a partner with 3Com providing a VoIP contact center. The prices announced by IBM are schockingly low. I wonder what the hardware costs come out to be.
