Soon you’ll have to pay a fee to skip commercials
April 24th, 2006
You know, seriously, what is this world coming to? Do companies find that ads are a necessity?
Granted, this stuff will probably never come true…but, man, if it does come true my already scarce TV habits will get even more scarce!
Google Calendar Is Launching Tonight
April 13th, 2006
“It looks like Google Calender could be launching tonight! The official Google Calendar logo was found on Google’s servers and calendar.google.com redirects to the actual CL2 login screen now.”

I thought this was pretty darn cool.

Really, the purpose of lawsuits these days is just to aide in an elevated form of children’s banter 
. When will people grow up, seriously? I personally never know when. I also realize that there may be one day that I myself will need a lawyer, but those reasons I assure you will not be meaningless (and hopefully not over money as this article seems to get at).
