Very true, though I believe 3D should be more focused towards games right now since 3D games can do really well with it. Think about PS Move or Kinect with 3D, it would give games a better sense of depth. The current problem that I found while playing Kinect games is that you can't really tell what is coming up and have proper reaction for it. Like that ball game on kinect adventures? Well, there's also the terrible physics implemented in the game but that's beside the point. Though, holography would be amazing in both games and movies alike. I don't care if I have to buy layered screens and a projector instead of waiting for that "reflect off of floating matter" crap, that shit is cool!

In other words, register with websites using your lame hotmail account and communicate with people using gmail. Works for me, except hotmail tends to block a lot of confirmation emails so it has to be two gmail accounts instead of hotmail / gmail :/

I didn't read my first sentence while revising (strange I know right?) I didn't mean that geolocate you without permission or cross-referencing would be a good thing. I meant the complete opposite and getting some technical specs like browser info, if javascript is installed, etc... That shouldn't be a problem for anyone realistically if it's kept anonymous.

Getting some of your info tracked is not all bad. I could see where it leaves technical specs of your computer and begins to geolocate you without your permission or cross-reference you with social networks etc... Buut, at the same time none of us likes to see advertisements that flash telling you to punch a monkey after taking some Viagra. In an ideal world, you would see LESS advertisements if advertisement blockers didn't exist, and you would see more relevant ads that would benefit you from clicking it by having your information tracked. However, this is in an ideal world and it just doesn't work in this world.

Personally, I have ABP installed and if it's a website I support ie: Slashdot, I'll disable ABP. I may not click on the ads but just viewing them somehow gives back a little bit.

Yeah it seems to be BS because the target source says "it wasn't qwest but another anonymous group". Sounds to me that they got threatened by Qwest for this joke.

Maybe helium-3 will work, but we won't know until we play lunar mooncraft and build giant mudkips and winged-dang-doodles out of h3 cubes. That's the only way to be sure. Just be careful of the monsters on the dark side of the moon.
