Is this the future of television


I know 2 posts in one day, but this is a quicky... just saw the interruption of regular broadcasting... Bourkes Backyard...lol, with a quick CNN interruption seems gun fighting has broken out in the school in Russia that was taken hostage (wasn't that like at the start of the week, if it had been any other country the SAS or swat would have hauled in there and kicked butt... maybe russia are smarter and don't want the massive child casualties associated with that) anyway, you have probably all seen the news reports on several sites that is not the detail I was interested in, the CNN reporter looked like he was being filmed by either a webcam or a 3g phone, now either of these are relatively new so my question is, is this how news is now going to be cheaply recorded, some reported holding his new 3g phone send video over ip to his news station... is this really wise, like I mean I knew it was a reporter but without sound I would have thought eww impressionist film interesting... or another ad for 3...
I hope the kids and the special forces and even the terrorists over there are ok.
Peace out all.

Haven't posted in ages, sorry all my fans....hahahahah there is only one I know of...
Anyway I should post Zlatko has a new journal that is updated... I was goshbustified...lol, I am not mentioned there yet but he has only had 3 posts... check it out here.
Now onto the main part of the post. I have settled into my new job pretty well, connecting to servers all over the country and even other parts of the world, though the latency sux... I also scored a red router and hardware firewall that was going to be chucked... sweeet, I am so the networking junky, but I haven't even powered it up in a week I have been to busy, good busy though, I love playing with servers and computers so it is all good. I have also been playing with my home server, now have a vpn and have narrowed down what I thought was a network setup issue but was in fact a crappy built-in Network card in kitt...ffs I hate HP laptops...
Surprisingly after 4 weeks of peak-hour train travel I have only blue-jacked 3 people.... obviously not trying hard enough :P
Oh yeah remember earlier, possibly last post I said google is god... well I can see why I am one of the chosen people from this site. Basically it archives websites, it has been archiving morganstorey.com since I purchased it in 2001...damn, oh you gotta go to that site and do a search of hotmail see the first link their back in 1996 that is when I originally signed up back when they had a measly 500,000 customers and weren't owned by the microsoft jugernaut... ahh memories...
Going to post more regularly I promise, I am only doing this one cause Fiona wanted a post, so I decided not to disappoint and made one just before I left work...
Peace out all.
