TV Reporter Broadcasts with Skype
No need for those expensive satellite feeds anymore, I’m guessing. When you have a story to report just whip out the laptop, throw in the air card from your favorite ISP, and pop open a Skype video connection back to the office / television station. I snapped this photograph real quick tonight with the BlackBerry while watching the 11:00 PM [...]

The value to a city and its budget conscious departments could be tremendous. But just as any large project unfolds someone must make the initial and ongoing investment to architect and [...]
What will $28B buy you?
Alltel Wireless! That’s what Verizon just paid for Alltel Corp. after today’s approval of the proposal by the Federal Trade Commission. With the deal Verizon becomes the largest wireless carrier in the United States. Does this mean no more Alltel commercials with Chad and his bumbling buddies? What do you guys think about this deal?

Mobile Devices, WiFi and Local Search. What do they have in common?
I recently read an article from Search Engine Watch that struck my interest. It was titled, Local Search Meets Mobile and WiFi and subtitled, Marketers should care about mobile search.
