It’s true – Google Talk will now support AIM integration. However, from what I can see, it just connects an external account, whereas an ideal feature would be integrated technology, like Yahoo! and Windows Live Messenger have achieved.

Take a look at this BBC News article.
Mobile phones might be becoming the next ‘digital wallet’, so you can pay for things automatically in your pocket.

What do you think? I like the idea a lot, but would it work with things like online shopping?

If you go check out Google Labs, you’ll see a new Product – Google Experimental Search.

So what does this mean? I think that Google’s opening mini-public betas, solely for feedback, and giving users a Teaser of what might be comming up.

Take a look at the ‘Experimental’ timeline view. This is actually pretty neat!

Just to clear it up… October 19, 2007

Ok, recently the news has mentioned a Paedophile called Christopher Neil. Yes, I’m aware, I can hear you back there, but I assure you it’s not me.

  • My name is Christopher Neill…it’s spelt with double l.
  • I’ve never been to Tailand, and I was born in good old England.
  • My middle name is Patrick, not Paul.
  • Although I look older than I am, It’s obvious that I’m only 15, not a 32 year old paedophile.

I had to put things straight since people at school started bringing it up.

The BBC are making a deal with hotspot company The Cloud to allow free access to the BBC’s online services through their WiFi Hotspots. Stuff like the News, Weather, Sports etc, can all be freely accessible to not only laptops, but devices such as smartphones, pocket pcs, and even the iPod touch. Well done BBC, go set an example for the rest of the internet!
