Wireless Spectrum Auction is Over For Coveted C-Block. But Who Won, Google or Verizon?
via TechCrunch by Erick Schonfeld on January 30, 2008
The most closely-watched part of the wireless auction for the 700 MHz spectrum that started earlier this week appears to be over. The auction for the coveted C-block of spectrum, which is a nationwide license and is subject to special open-device/application rules, was won by a $4.7 billion bid—just a smidgen above the $4.6 billion minimum required by the FCC.

via deal architect by (author unknown) on January 29, 2008

Here's a few more that come to mind:- Why are there so few Macs in this office?- Why do so many people get cc'ed on so many emails?- And yet, why is mailbox capped at 100mb.

Keeping with the theme of great ways to illustrate the bible, check out The Brick Testament. The Brick Testament is the largest, most comprehensive illustrated Bible in the world with over 3,600 illustrations that retell more than 300 stories from The Bible.

NES on Facbook… OMG
via All Facebook by Anthony LaFauce on January 27, 2008

While I was in the Navy I had a laptop with 4 different system emulators that...
