Purchase downloadable movies, it's coming soon

I'm surprised that this isn't very common as of yet.

Maybe, it's due to bandwidth concerns... but apparently movies will soon be available for purchase VIA the internet... by download.

Like iTunes and the other popular digital music services, movies will soon be online.

I think that it's about time....

Yahoo joins to PC to Phone arena

Yahoo have released their new PC to Phone services...

$2.99 per month.

I've used Skype quite a bit before... for PC to PC calls, I found that Skype was amazing. I've also used Skype for business calls... PC to Phone..

When it came to PC to Phone calls, I found that there was a delay that was quite noticable and anoying.. but I will admit that I haven't tried to do PC to phone calls for some time.. I imagine the newer versions of Skype are far better than the old.

The Yahoo service is quite interesting to me. I'll have to check it out...

The communications landscape has changed quite a bit in the last 10 years, and the next 10 years will surely bring more of the same.. especially with more big companies like this jumping in to the mix.

Google acquired Writely

Some time ago, I had checked out Writely, an online document maker... and free at that.

I was very impressed with the site and service.

Well, Writely has officially joined the Google family of products.

I'm sure we'll see some great ideas come to life with this project.

Software as a service like this has gotten a bit more popular. Something that really attracts me to this type of software, is that I need not install any more software on my laptop or PC. I only need an internet browser.

If you don't have that..... you can't read this.
