No, I don't think so. I had a look and it was so painfully slow, I'll forego the pleasure in future. ;)


Be lucky

acoustic iPod hack

This is the second iPod hack that I've read about. The other one was about a bunch of radiologists that figured out how to catalog, scroll and swap patient Xray images on a hacked iPod.

When Vance Packard, Ralph Nader, Peggy Charren, and other critics attacked advertising in the 1950s, 1970s, and 1980s (respectively), defenders of industry often cited a common refrain: "advertising provides free news and entertainment."



In 1967, when one of the first pay TV services was preparing to launch in California, Hollywood and the networks helped defeat the service because they didn't want the competition. Theater owners organized a KEEP TV FREE campaign, with PSAs like this one running in movie houses before feature films.
