Why does Hollywood yank movies off iTunes for exclusive deals with TV broadcasters? Piracy is the inevitable response to myopic management
CNNIC has great online statistical data on China and in english. If only I could say the same about Japan and Korea...
@tariqkrim Wish i was in Paris with you guys this week. Next time!
Watching 'Fringe' instead of writing the report that's due tomorrow - its getting pretty obvious that Peter Bishop is a clone of Walter
Found 'Rainbows End' for a $1 in a 2nd hand bookshop - interesting ideas about augmented reality, haptics, future search and info affiliates
@Afficionados_HH I'm very biased - but make up your own mind :-) Book due early next year, prob Q2 - being designed now!
Heading to the B&T awards at Luna Park tonight. Vince Frost, who is designing my book, did an amazing job with the redesign of the magazine.
@jamesoreilly Haha - Mahalo may certainly be a derivative - Jason Calacanis might relate to his brand meaning 'expensive' :-)
I learned today that the word 'Mahal' in Filipino means both love and expensive. How true :-)
"I didn't want to be a mortgage slut" - mortgage wholesaler on subprime sexual favour trading - in Businessweek: http://tinyurl.com/59e63e

The good news - cheap mobile prepaid broadband now in Aus. The bad news - user activation and registeration designed by an interface sadist
The value of unlicensed music trafficked on P2P networks in 2007 was US$69 billion - RIP DRM - http://tinyurl.com/6ow346
Streetview on the iphone 2.2 update is eerie genius. How strange to be a pedestrian ghost in the machine forever frozen on Times Square...
As for JJ Abrams' new Star Trek remake - i know pop culture loves inbreeding but really - Sylar as Spock?
Surprised by Quantum of Dialogue - despite the action, had the visual aesthetics of an art film. Bond as minimalist brutal chic. Like it.
I have finally succumb to the joys of Mad Men, and yes, it was that skit on SNL with the copyline charismatic Don Draper that did it
