United Nations "Internet" Summit held sans internet

Filed under: Wireless

Do you lose any and all direction in your life if your internet goes down for more than 20 seconds or so? Sadly, the same goes for us, but imagine the hysteria that ensued when participants realized the United Nations "Internet" summit was completely devoid of web access. Amazingly enough, the one conference where free WiFi was all but guaranteed failed to deliver, as the techies working for the "luxury resort hotel on the Athenian Riveria" couldn't iron out the connectivity issues. The hotspot initially presented the dreaded "could not connect to the network" error, and after repeated troubleshooting efforts were completed in vain, conference organizers apparently gave up on ever finding a solution. So, are you rethinking that decision to pick up one of those snazzy 3G ExpressCards yet?

Google, YouTube Video Challenge

Rights group attacks self-help group’s Google and YouTube ‘cult’ video demands.

An international self-help organization has subpoenaed YouTube and Google Video for the identity of the individuals who uploaded a French-made video that the group believes infringes its U.S. copyright, and that subpoena is being challenged by a U.S. digital rights group. The case revolves around a French documentary that portrays the Landmark Forum, an international educational group, as a cult, a portrayal the group sees as damaging. The documentary, entitled Voyage to the Land of the New Gurus, includes hidden camera footage purportedly from inside a Landmark Forum event in France, as well as from inside the Landmark offices in France. The forum charges that the documentary also includes material from its manual, which the organization said is protected by U.S. copyright law, so when the documentary showed up on YouTube, Google Video, and Internet Archive, the San Francisco-based Forum sprang into action. The organization subpoenaed the three web sites hosting the video for the identities of the uploaders.

Google Buys JotSpot

Search king acquires wiki technology developer as part of move to build collaboration.
Google acquired wiki technology developer JotSpot as the search king builds on the collaborative capabilities it has been building with its web-based applications. Earlier this month, the company tied together its web-based spreadsheet software with the online word processor it has developed from its acquisition of Upstartle and its Writely word processor in a product it is testing called Google Docs & Spreadsheets.

The Docs & Spreadsheets software allows users to invite others to share their documents, edit their documents online with others, and publish the documents online to the general public or a select group of people. Similarly JotSpot has been upgrading its wiki technology to allow users to collaborate more easily on spreadsheets, documents, calendars, photo galleries, and file repositories. The Palo Alto, California-based company introduced JotSpot 2.0 in July

Depression Questions and Help - Depression Home Page

Depression Questions and Help - Depression Home Page: "Depression, also clinically known as major depressive disorder, affects millions of people around the world but most do not understand that depression is a very real disease. People that have never suffered with depression understand very little about this disease and feel that a person with it should ‘get on with their life and get over the depression’.

They believe that depression sufferers can get rid of their depression by using their willpower. People that are close to, or live with those with depression, are often frustrated and annoyed by this and “snap out of it” hear this far too often.

Most people, uneducated when it comes to depression, have no idea that they have all the signs and are themselves depressed and reaching severe levels. Understanding about depression will make you appreciate what a person goes through who suffers from it.
