Comment Why I need a new windows (Score 1) 625
It's almost useful. Quite nice (in a 60 second review). I would not use it.
I simply dont use sites that open new windows when you follow links. If I wanted it in a different browser window I would right click "new tab" or "new window".
The real question becomes the actual power of the search engine behind the singing and dancing starting point - but thats not the point of this article.

Comment Spam in Oz (Score 3, Interesting) 213
SMS Spam is definately already a problem. The carriers themselves have been guilty of spamming their own users with new offers they can take advantage of - for a fee, of course. I'd link the story from AustralianIT, but their article seems to have vanished except from Google cache...hrm.
Its good to see a quick reaction to this, and it would be nice to think it might even have some influence on the issue of email spam as well...
