IP4 Is Almost Done For
Article Link
It seems that the standard 4 octet of IP addresses (ie 192.168.1.1) is coming to an end. Soon, the new technology will be coming with IP6 addresses, which while have a larger range that can be addressed will cause a bigger headache.
Why the headache you ask? The headache will lie with big businesses that have to translate the IP6 addresses to work with IP4 and vice versa.
So while the IP4 addresses are almost gone, the age of IP6 is dawning upon us and it isn't going to be an easy transition!

Software Patents Are Ridiculous
http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2010/10/patent-troll-takes-over-the-web-can-it-be-stopped.ars
After reading this article, I finally believe that the whole Software Patent system is the most absurd thing known to mankind.
Seriously, companies are being sued because of rollover ads?!? That is just mind boggling. Sure rollover ads are extremely annoying but it does grab the user's attention when the stumble upon the content. For a company to have a 'patent' for something so basic to write in HTML code is beyond me.
This is just proof that the software patent system is one of the most broken systems in the world. This ranks right up there with the RIAA charging $750 per 'stolen' song. Until the governments realize that this system needs to be removed, lawyers will be raking in cash and people who try to invent something new will be sued off the planet because it has been supposedly patented even though it has never been developed or used ever!

Apple Attempts To Fight Sexting
http://apple.slashdot.org/story/10/10/13/1615251/Apple-Awarded-Anti-Sexting-Patent
It seems that Apple now has the right to create a text messaging service that can monitor what a person is typing. This is honestly down right crazy. Early this week, Apple submitted an trademark application for "There's an app for that".
If this doesn't make Apple a huge troll I don't know what does!

Windows 7 Phone
I'm going to keep this short and simple:
Do you honestly think that Windows Phone 7 will survive again Android, Blackberry, and even Apple?
If it is like WinMo6, then no.
Your thoughts?
