- Belgian newspaper people have got to be the dumbest in the world. Suing Google for getting them links and attention. Apparently the Belgians want no links or attention and cannot figure out how to prevent it.
- PC Magazine says Windows 7 is a threat to Vista. Windows 7 is still hot air. It will not be out until 2011.
- Some think that AMD has an opportunity.
- Look for the Norwegians to try to usurp the Nobel Prize with the Kavli awards. Geez.
- Tivo fails to keep up with Cranky Geeks.
- HP gets too much PR, I know why.
- Look for 8 MP on a cell phone? Augh. 8 MP of blur.

At least they have a news media in Belgium. All we have in the US is talking heads that regurgitate government press releases and a few blogs that try, against all odds, to disseminate the truth.
“Belgian newspaper people have got to be the dumbest in the world. Suing Google for getting them links and attention.”
Links and attention are exactly what they want, and suing Google is one of the best ways to get a shitload of them.
Probably.
On another note… you guys really need to do something about the site’s logo. Its’ hideously jpeged.
Well, yes, the Belgians. We live next to them. Actually, we gave them their independence in 1830. You can see why 😉
*cough*
sometimes i’m not so proud of my country ^^
yes very dumb …. It’s been a while since this has been going on.
Basically they sued google because it would aggregate news stories from their site, and therefore people could read their news without going thru the site’s ad banners etc…
So they should copyright violation … (also for the google images too).
Result, all belgian news sites are banned from google, meaning that when i went to search for something that happened in this s*** country … i get 0 results
yipee
(Sorry if this is explained in the mp3 … i’m at work and can’t listen to that mp3 thing … i always regret there’s not a written version of it for me to read between two recompilations ^^ )
