For months, users of Adobe Creative Suite 3 have been wondering why some of the applications regularly connect to
192.168.112.2o7.net which looks a lot like a private IP address but is actually a public domain address belonging to the web analytics company Omniture. Now allegations of user spying are getting louder, prompting Adobe Photoshop product manager John Nack to respond, though many remain unsatisfied with his explanation.

Great breakdown of the " real cost " of owning an Apple iPhone for one year... get ready folks, the math comes to $1936! The data plan alone is overwhelming. For the same money, you could buy: 2,129 McDonalds hamburgers or a Macbook Pro.

How would you like to tune into the Indy 500 and see the Linux penguin prominently displayed on a car. The Tux 500 project was started to raise enough money to sponsor an Indy 500 car this year in the name of Linux. If $25,000 is raised they will be an associate sponsor of the car, if they reach $350,000 then the whole car will have Linux all over it. The amount of visibility depends on the money raised. Overnight they passed $6000 and there is some good rivalry between the different distributions on the stats page. There is also a contest to determine a design for the car.
