Looks like Level3 screwed up big time.
It seems like Level3 messed up a software upgrade in Chicago.

Isn’t it nice to know that one person can accidentally effect internet access for a large part of the world?
Also, looks like journalists are trolling for information on this is well.
Time to sell your stock in Level3.

The much touted and hyped Flock Browser has opened up with a developer release. Previously it was locked down to Beta users, but now the world gets a peak.
Flock is touting itself as a social web browser, that integrates del.cio.us,Flickr,and your blog. This will make it that much easier to post on your own blog.
I am chomping at the bit to give it a try. Will update this post once I try it out.

Flock This!

Okay—I am Flocking this right now, and it is flocking great.

The Flickr and del.icio.us stuff is hot—bye bye Firefox, I loved you, but there is a new hotness in town.

Once the weather cools down, the booze posts start flooding in.Check out this great innovation in alcohol delivery systems.
It replaces your wimpy one spigot keg tap, with an UBER 3-spigot tap.
You can now get drunk three times as fast.

Also, check their Ultimate Cocktail add-on. This specially designed pressurized bottle allows you to tap a keg o’ whatever you want.
Pour your favourite cocktail into the bottle, and attach the UBER tap, and you can finish the whole thing in two or three minutes.
It is really nice to see technology changing the booze world.

This is interesting news for a number of reasons. First off, I finally joined the throngs of Treo 650 owners, and I am really pleased with it so far.
Second –where I work, they prefer the blackberry enterprise stuff, so I have been out of the loop on that so far(ps. blackberry phones are ugly).
Third, it seems to me that RIM may be trying to suck up some cash, so they can afford the potential licensing fees, that they may have to pay.
The patent lawsuit for wireless email, has turned against RIM, so I get the feeling they are trying to license their tech as much as possible. This may help stem the cost of the court injunction against them. As a side note, the company suing RIM, has failed to uphold their patent claims with the USPTO, but, the court case is still going their way.
Let’s hope RIM doesn’t disappear.
