http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/entry1564.html The same folk who conned the YouTube world with the over-hyped diary of a teenage Lonelygirl that was actually a scripted soap, are at it again. This time Bebo is the target, where KateModern promises to be the soap that lets you bond with the characters through the social networking interface. Oh purlease! Making friends with characters from a soap, how sad is that?

Attempts to revive a version of Vista, complete with WinFS, have been shot through the head by the Microsoft legal machine http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/entry1521.html It should come as no real surprise that the Longhorn Reloaded project is officially dead. "To put the projects aims simply, we aim to finish off what Microsoft started before the operating system was canceled. It is a modification of Windows 6.0.4074, which was originally released during the 2004 Windows Hardware Engineers Conference" says the project blurb. It was doomed to failure from the get go. Did anyone seriously think that Microsoft would allow an early Vista Beta to be promoted, distributed and lauded? Still, it is a shame though.
