澳大利亞政府廢除WiMAX寬帶全國建網計劃 — 通信產業 - 賽迪網

Tue, 08 Apr 2008 08:47:40 GMT

WiMAX的非視距優勢在距基站兩公里之外便不存在，室內覆蓋性能在區區400米處就發生衰減，而且時延高達1000毫秒。而由於時延和抖動性能不佳，WiMAX對許多互聯網應用方案來說並不適合，也很難被接受，其中問題最大的是VoIP。

電腦螢幕越大 = 生產力越高？

Fri, 14 Mar 2008 04:51:20 GMT

美國Utah大學對人們使用不同尺寸電腦螢幕執行日常工作的效能（例如編輯文件、拷貝試算表數字等等）做了一番研究，他們讓一個人使用18吋螢幕、一個人使用24吋螢幕、另一個人使用2個20吋螢幕。

結果顯示，使用24吋螢幕和2個20吋螢幕的人完成工作的速度，比使用18吋螢幕的人分別快了52%和44%。然而螢幕大小和產能的正比關係是有上限的：當螢幕大小超過26吋時，工作效率就會開始下降。

Eating In Translation

Sat, 09 Feb 2008 04:42:27 GMT

This website began as a collection of field notes on interesting food I'd tried (or planned to try) in and around New York. Since its launch, in January 2005, I've visited some 1,800 restaurants, lunch counters, cafés, street vendors, fairs, festivals, grocers, and greenmarkets — and my "to eat" list is longer than ever.

Soup evades censorship

Wed, 06 Feb 2008 19:08:31 GMT

Apparently, Soup was blocked by the Great Firewall of China today. To restore service to our Chinese users, we've changed our IP address. According to this online test, the measure has been effective and Soup should be reachable again. If you're from China, please allow a few hours for the DNS updates to propagate.

While this is likely not a long-term solution, we strongly condemn government censorship and are committed to doing whatever we can to remain available to users all over the world.

In case we are blocked again, we recommend using the free Tor proxy software to temporarily circumvent the firewall.

Garmin新近發表的nüvifone

Mon, 04 Feb 2008 17:59:38 GMT

它的最大特點自然是GPS衛星定位的功能，還好3.5寸的液晶螢幕還夠大，而nüvifone同樣也具備類似iPhone的觸控式按鍵、網際網路瀏覽功能、4頻行動電話、相機、行事曆、電子郵件、藍芽、WiFi無線網路，並支援3.5G，也就是HSDPA規格，算是上網、打電話加上GPS的好組合。

The problem, critics say, is that microchipped products might very well do a whole lot more.

香港文化界大悲劇：博益停業

Fri, 25 Jan 2008 19:40:01 GMT

於1981 年成立、至今已經有二十六年歷史的博益出版社（南華早報集團旗下公司），也算得上是香港數一數二的出版社之一。至少，每年書展都佔據最大、最當眼的攤位。如此有地位的出版社，卻於今日：1 月25 日宣佈「停止運作」。即是公司還會存在的，但什麼都不會再做。
