Daily Tech News for April 6, 2005

Well, its back to the old routine again. Ahh...only two months left till another extended vacation. Well lets get to the weeks tech news...
  • Peeping Tom to The Next Level
    Well it looks like Google had a reason for buying Keyhole. Their Google Maps now supports satellite images, so you know what you are looking at. I was able to see my house from the top...scary stuff man.

  • Fantasies of iPod movie
    Over at Engadget, they have posted a link to a story about a deal Apple made with UK based Alphamosaic for multimedia chips. Can you just think of Quicktime Movie Store and iPod movie...oooo.

  • iMac mini Available At Best Buy
    For those of you who live too far from an Apple Store, that sucks. If you wanted an iMac mini and don't trust internet purchases, you can go to your local Best Buy and pick up one there. Apple computers in a Nationwide chain...cool.

  • DotNets...Huh?
    I was just looking at my college newspaper, Daily Titan, and they have an article talking about how the DotNets generation are more tolerant than the Gen X and Baby Boomers. Nothing to do with tech really, but what caught my attention was that anyone aged 18-25 right now are DotNets. Interesting...DotNets. "Coming soon to your workplace...DotNets! Available in many different colors and sizes, find one that fits your workplace today."

  • Geek Speak is Confusing to the Average Joe
    It looks like many computer users that are not geeks are confused by the jargon used today on the net. Slashdot has the link to the BBC story.

Well, thats about it for this weeks edition. My past news is found using the archives, for those people who missed the blocking picture post. Well, I have to run...
