Broadband lessons to be learned. A recent mission to South Korea¸ which has the highest penetration of broadband connections in the world¸ revealed interesting lessons for the UK. [BBC News | TECHNOLOGY] Fascinating stuff here. I love the ties between education and broadband. Can you imagine doing that in the US ("all homework must be submitted online...")? Sometimes it feels like our culture is stagnant, adrift in the philosophical L5 point between liberals and conservatives. comment []7:20:35 AM

DVD reaches rental milestone. Black Hawk Down becomes the first film to be rented more on DVD than VHS as sales of DVDs continue to surge. [BBC News | TECHNOLOGY] I can't believe it took this long. I guess I'm a little disconnected from the norm - I thought *everyone* watched DVDs exclusively by now. comment []7:11:39 AM
