- The end of the world?
- Probably not. Today (Wednesday, well it is for me anyway), we see the first beam test of the LHC, the Large Hadron Collider, in the CERN's labs in Switzerland. The point of this, quite frankly, bloody huge experiment is to try and recreate the Big Bang on...

- Which stock to buy today: YHOO, MSFT or GOOG?
- The Microsoft-Yahoo deal implosion was a near certainty when the talks began. Two cultures as convinced that they are superior to one another can never coexist, so forget blaming anyone for what was inevitable. At least it didn't take two years and billions of dollars in real losses, as compared...

- Why isn't more effort going into tech refurbishment?
- You've gotta love the analogies people come up with to describe the magnitude of their efforts to help the environment. (By the way, guilty as charged.) The latest statistic I present for consideration is Hewlett-Packard's declaration that it recycled almost 250 million pounds of hardware and print cartridges in 2007...

- The implosion of music DRM
- I certainly wouldn't have expected that, within a year, most digital music would be legally available, DRM-free, from online download sites. That seems on track to happen, however, as Sony just announced it would be releasing its music in DRM-free MP3 format. It helps, of course, that DRM-free music on...

- Green tech ideals slowly penetrating consumer consciousness
- Once upon a time, in the pre-bubble days before the time of the great Y2K switchover and the dot-com implosion, giant high-tech companies scrambled to portray themselves as the biggest, best-est e-something-or-others. In these modern times, they can't paint themselves green fast enough with oodles of paper green being...
