Google is awesome! — That is all I have to say.
Google is now offering webpage creation using your GMAIL account and hosting the pages (up to 100MBs!!!).
You can start a page here >> http://pages.google.com

Your pages are available at http:// yourGMAILusername.googlepages.com

Pretty Slick!! 
My only questions is with all the people and blogs keeping their eye on Google and trying to see their next move or service … how come this hasn’t been mentioned before now?

Thank you Google!  In the past, users had to select which address to use if the “default” should not be the sender.  The process simply didn’t feel natural when replying to messages originally sent to yourname@foo.com.  By default, it would set the “from” address to “yourname@gmail.com” rather than the more logical “yourname@foo.com” — even if you have the appropriate accounts set up.

YOU know what would be so cool? A portable Wi-Fi hot spot. Whenever you wanted Internet access, you wouldn’t have to hunt for a wireless coffee shop or pay $24 a night to your hotel.

Story here.

WOW!! Where do all the stupid people come form?
So this joker, Fred Gilbert, President of Lakehead University is banning WiFi on the campus because there is no proof that WiFi isn’t harmful. Saying that “the jury is still out” on what the effects of RF exposure are.
Well I sure hope that Lakehead doesn’t have a student Radio Station, and that all of the microwaves and cell phones are confiscated. Oh yeah don’t forget the handheld radios/walkie talkies that campus security uses.

A new wireless technology could beat fiber optics for speed in some applications.
Atop each of the Trump towers in New York City, there’s a new type of wireless transmitter and receiver that can send and receive data at rates of more than one gigabit per second — fast enough to stream 90 minutes of video from one tower to the next, more than one mile apart, in less than six seconds. By comparison, the same video sent over a DSL or cable Internet connection would take almost an hour to download.

In a move that doesn’t surprise me, EarthLink and Google have combined their proposal to build a network in San Francisco: Both companies have openly spoken for months about how they were working together to understand how viable models for a variety of metro-scale networks could operate profitably for the ISP. Google has said rather consistently as well that they aren’t interested in running Wi-Fi networks, but rather need some testbeds to try out ideas—hence their SF and Mountain View interests.

CSS Tabs seem to be all the rage with the kids these days. I love the idea of them. It seems that the most popular method of creating tabs using CSS is the Sliding Doors method. They seem to look the coolest and are very easy to implement. However, they’re so… static.

Proof: Employees don’t care about security
An experiment carried out within London’s square mile has revealed that employees in some of the City’s best known financial services companies don’t care about basic security policy.
