Morse code trumps SMS in head-to-head speed texting combat - Engadget - www.engadget.com /

This is pretty fascinating.
I wonder if anybody is doing morse code w/2 buttons (long/short)?
Presumably that would be even faster.
I would love to see a cell phone w/1 button for morse code.

Golden Gate Bridge: Fastrak & Tolls & Insanity

Irony of the day.
You can't change your creditcard info for fastrack online or via email.
You can't even see what cc they're billing. It isn't indicated on the billing statement either.
You have to fax or mail them your acct # and updated card info!
Most galling of all- they say it's in order to prevent fraud!!
They've really got their market figured out. People who are trying to use technology to shave seconds off of their commute really have the patience to lick a stamp. That is one confused enterprise.
And godaddy.com is even worse, avoid like the plague.

Who says the Internet isn't fun?

Jotspot

Wow.
This is definitely power to the people.
Jotspot is a huge leap forward in user created web apps. It's like a greatest hits of productivity web apps (too many to list), but the real prize is the customizability.

Makes basecamp look pretty weak. But watchout, when they say "beta" they mean it, it's got bugs a plenty.
