Ireland law would force video gamers to pay annual TV tax for web-capable video game systems (iPod T - (USA)
What this means is this: If you own ANY machine capable of internet access, you will be forced to register your internet-capable machine – desktop, laptop, netbook, cellphone, iPod Touch, Nintendo DS, and even Playstation 3 – with the government. This is not about funding public broadcasting. It’s all about stealing your money and putting you in a government database. So let it be known, video gamers: if this law is passed and goes into effect, stores will be required by law to take down yo

Twitter Goes Down: Demonstrates the Dangers of Consolidated Communication - (USA)
Twitter is no longer just the place that people go to voice their most inane thoughts to people who couldn't care less. Nor, despite the numbers , is it simply a place for marketers to hang out and push products and content to the hungry masses. People are using Twitter to find out about events, as they are happening, continents away. People are using Twitter to have a voice in countries where having an opinion can be illegal. Twitter has evolved into a medium that now demands our respect.

Should News Broadcasts In China Use Only Mandarin? - (USA)

Now, my partner is watching CNN and MSNBC, but I’m impressed with some of the coverage available via streaming video direct from Indian broadcasters. The most polished and professional coverage

Live Nation Loses $100 million, Concert Attendance Declines - (USA)
Global ticket sales rose 8 percent in 2008, but Live Nation’s earnings report for the first quarter of 2009 showed losses of $102.7 million. In the UK, live music sales surpassed recorded music, yet Live Nation reports a 22 percent drop in attendance of live shows.
