since some time no I've been gathering lots of Information about lot's of different stuff. Doing so has often brought me around various places on the net. I had something similar to this in mind kinda like a repository which contains the contact to some specialist or at least someone more knowlegdeable than me on a topic who posses the ability to relay his knowledge in realtime at anytime. If I were Slashdot.org I would be very careful not to think to small as this might be one of the enormusly needed tool for common advanced knowlegde Insuring 24/7 expert contact && response would be equal to a man build world wonder (if you don't start being one of the bad guys :p) good luck with the new feature release @returning to gather and clone knowlegde of any sort

YokimaSun writes "The war between hackers and Sony over the PlayStation 3 has now taken an even more sinister turn, with Sony going after not just shops but actual buyers of the PSBreak dongle, threatening them with fines of many thousands of Euros and forcing them to sign cease-and-desist letters. It seems Sony will use any means necessary to thwart both homebrew and piracy on the PS3."

This new recommendation published in the most recent Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine (14:3) notes that delaying clamping the umbilical cord allows more umbilical cord blood and crucial stem cells to transfer from mama to baby."

They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but there is a finite number of social networking or selling websites that the world needs. Here is a collection of the eight kinds of websites that absolutely don't need to be made anymore. I'd add dating sites and anybody who uses pop-up ads myself, but I think that would eliminate half the Web.

How PC Game Modders Are Evolving 98

Posted by Soulskill on Tuesday May 18, 2010 @10:20PM from the longer-beaks-for-breaking-shells dept.

Lanxon writes "Wired has a lengthy investigation into the state of PC game mods, and the amateurs keeping the scene exciting in the wake of draconian DRM placed on many PC titles by major studios. It highlights a number of creative modders, such as Scott Reismanis, founder and editor of Mod DB, and his community-driven alternative to Valve's Steam — Desura — which is 'a distribution system, and, like Steam, will sell games and champion indie titles. But the way it handles mods makes it even more exciting.'"
