Designer Harc Lee has created a “naked” Coca Cola can that forfeits Coke’s typical bold red and white stripes in favor of au naturale silver. The aluminum can is created without using any paints or dyes, and stands to greatly reduce pollution and energy use associated with producing and recycling soda cans.

Content please and Provider thank-you
I think it is outstanding that Microsoft is developing "Live" apps to run in the Google Chrome OS environment. I particularly enjoy the irony of Microsoft being 'blind-sided' by this new technology ... until I reflect on the new "Papa" rule: "It is not the content it is the provider." My insight is born of my current effort to bring a working model of SharePoint 2010 Beta into fruition. Most notable is the instant integration into my Active Directory (AD) domain. From the first sign-on SharePoint is appointed with an abundance of behind-the-scenes services. Features and functions that I will not have to programmatically implement - they are just in there. So, faced with the ease of development - where the content is the same regardless of the environment - why shouldn't I choose a 'provider' that affords me so many perks? Google may well field an excellent OS platform but in a business environment SharePoint will most likely be the provider of choice.Just my $0.02William Meloney

I really hate this damned machine...

I wish that they would sell it.
It never does quite what I want
But only what I tell it.

Bold Headline
Europe to Europe: WTF?
How Europeans are responding to their comically obscure new EU overlords.
Microsoft puts News Corp out of business?
Microsoft Paying Sites to De-list From Google?
Microsoft has reportedly asked News Corp to make good on its threat to de-list itself from Google and is offering the company an incentive to do so.
Personally I wouldn't be so quick to cut my own throat. I wonder what percentage of traffic (reads: REVENUE) for News Corp is generated via Google?
