Submission + - World's First Cycle to the South Pole Achieved (gizmag.com)

Zothecula writes: Shortly before Christmas, we heard about 35 year-old British adventurer Maria Leijerstam's planned attempt to ride to the South Pole on a recumbent fat-tired tricycle. On December 27th at 1am GMT, she achieved that goal, becoming the first person to ever successfully cycle from the edge of the Antarctic continent to the Pole.

It's possible you might have to pay to register, which might cut down on how many accounts a person would make. This is not a great idea. Depending on the tertiary capabilities of a client, you might pay for membership or ownership of a client that does more or looks better. Clients would still have the opportunity to use adds if they wanted to, they could even be browser based, but there wouldn't be any one person owning the data anymore. Also, when your computer goes down, your friends can still seed the data they have.

To be fair, EA has produced okay games. Yeah, their library is huge and full of crap, but they can produce a good game when they want to. The main complaint everyone has is DRM, right? Disney really means one thing: Merchandising We shouldn't be surprised when this happens, but typically, they need to do something to create fans to sell the stuff. So, yeah, I expect yoda dolls that come in sizes 1", 3", 6", 18", and 36" for those who really need a yoda that's bigger than yoda, but there's a good chance a good movie comes along with. With J.J. Abrams in the director's chair there's a very solid chance of that happening. The games could really go either way, but you'll need an internet connection to play them, lol.
