iPAD. It's Shiny and made by Apple. I suppose you better buy one.

After the NZ Herald yesterday that Steve Job's has just unveiled Apple's new creation the iPAD, I decided to watch the unveiling video and see what its all about!

Ok, people who know me are well aware, although I recognise the very good MAC interface, overall I am not a MAC fan.

What I found interesting about the video below, is that the people are clapping before they have any idea what it even does! (Cringe)

Steve Jobs says 'this is what it looks like!' and the audience are like 'Woooooooo!, Clap Clap Clap!'.



Cringe.

It certainly does look like an oversized iPod Touch or iPhone.
Will it do everything my Windows PC does?
Will it be as good as running Firefox?
Will it play all the video formats that the web has to offer?
Will it run all the scripts / Flash etc? I dunno.

Maybe one of you guys can tell me. I am sure there are already many Mac lovers out there who are salivating over their bed pillows at night, as they dream for the moment to arrive where they can spend their hard earned cash on Apple's latest, overpriced, shiny thing.

As you can see in the video below. Every body's favourite dictator is not impressed.

Have you ever swallowed sea water?

Got this one in my mailbox today and I had to post it!

"I'll never be able to swim in the sea again with out this image in my head"

A Blue Whale produces over 400 gallons of sperm when it ejaculates;
*but only 10% of that makes it into his mate
*so 360 Gallons are spilled into the ocean every time one unloads.
You wonder why the ocean is so salty...
Don't swallow the water!!!

How to Stop the Scrapers?

According to Wikipedia, 'Blog scraping' is the process of scanning through a large number of blogs, usually daily, searching for and copying content. This process is conducted through automated software.

The software and the individuals who run the software are sometimes referred to as blog scrapers. Scraping is copying a blog that is not owned by the individual initiating the scraping process. If the material is copyrighted it is considered copyright infringement, unless there is a license relaxing the copyright. The scraped content is often used on spam blogs or splogs.

I admit to using sources from other websites as back up content for my own, but I always cite my sources and provide links back to them. The problem is these bastard 'sploggers' such as the person over at wallpapers-e.com who has been constantly stealing my copyrighted photographs from one of my other blogs. What do we do about them?

Submitting a DMCA report to Google seems like our only option. What will Google do in such an event? remove the site from their lists? The offending website will still exist!

So frustrating! This is my 2nd post on this issue and I very, very pissed off to see a site stealing content from people which is getting a higher Google Pagerank and Alexa ranking than the very sites it steals from!

If you have any experiences with this type of issue, I would love to hear from you!

Muzzerino.

Sigh.
