I found this cool video on digg. It is a nice introduction to the history of the Internet.

Welcome to the Cloud
It looks like cloud computing is going to be the next best thing!
There is a new OS called gOS (No it is not made by Google) that boots into a stripped down linux distro presenting the user with a browser. Effectivly with the massive increase in online apps users can now transfer all the processing and storage onto the "cloud" (web servers and web services on the internet). I think that we are going to see a lot more of this in future as it will reduce the cost of the end user device and increase online activity for service providers who will benefit from increased ad-revenue. I predict that this form of computing will slowly, but surely start taking over.
Anyway check out the slideshow below of gOS:

Facebook Blocked?!? (static.ak.fbcdn.net)
I tried to logon to facebook today using google chrome and was presented with the following screen:
It would seem that static.ak.fbcdn.net is being reported as a phishing website!
This is the information for the domain fbcdn.net:
Registrant:
Facebook, Inc
156 University Ave,
3rd Floor Palo Alto,
CA 94301 US
Domain name: FBCDN.NET
Administrative Contact: Admin,
Domain domain@facebook.com
156 University Ave,
3rd Floor Palo Alto,

Domain domain@facebook.com

It would seem a though this is a legit facebook domain, but I am not able to find any info on the net as to why this domain is blocked! If anyone has any info please let me know.
Vista SP2 on its way!
It seems as though Microsoft may be releasing Windows Vista Service Pack 2 in April 2009!
Check out this article:
Lets hope that they don't release it on the 1st of April :P
