Tech at Night: California, Net Neutrality, Google, Verizon, Oracle, Software Patents
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | August 25th at 11:59 PM |
Good evening. Yes, I’m late again on Tech at Night. Even later than I was on Monday in fact. But instead of scolding me, let’s take out our anger on Democrats like Barbara Boxer and Jerry Brown for threatening California’s long-established high tech leadership. More and more companies and their good, high-paying jobs are fleeing the state. Green tech firms, medical supply firms, information service | Read More »

Tech at Night: RIAA, DMCA, Viacom, Google, Gun Owners of America, Free Press
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | August 18th at 11:30 PM |
Good evening. A story I expect to hear more about is this a proposed subsidy for radio stations and the RIAA both of some sort of legal requirement for new cellular phones to include an FM radio receiver. Such a requirement would raise costs on everyone, lower innovation and even basic differentiation options, and be nothing but a detriment to anyone who shops for cellular | Read More »

Dead Palin-Gate

[UPDATE: A day later, the second actor in this frat house nonsense...State Rep. Candidate Halloran...has now fallen on his own sword, and withdrawn from the race. There IS justice...and there is STILL an opportunity for Democrats to learn something; be better on the issues and maybe you'll get elected and keep your seats.

Tech at Night: Free Press, FCC, Google, LTE, RIM, Amazon, California

Tonight, we start with a longer note that requires some setup, so bear with me as I break from the usual format for a moment. ––– The FCC’s attempt to reclassify broadband as if it were a telephone service had already encountered opposition from a strong, bipartisan majority of Congress – not to mention usually Democratic allies like the AFL-CIO, CWA, IBEW, LULAC, MMTC, NAACP, | Read More »

George W. Bush, Up to Evil Mischief Making Again!
By: Lori Ziganto (Diary) | June 21st at 08:00 PM |
After taking a quick rest from breaking up Al Gore’s marriage and from magically tricking President Obama into being an utterly incompetent failure, President Bush is now nefariously insinuating his way onto Facebook and Youtube. He recently released a video on the popular video sharing website, discussing his delving onto the Facebook scene and a little summary of what he’s been up to since leaving | Read More »
