So what can you do while Skype works on this? A company called MeBeam have just announced multi-person video conferencing for Skypethat can handle up to 16 attendees. And best of all, it’s free.

It’s everywhere on the interwebs now: Microsoft and Yahoo! are back at the table. This time Microsoft aren’t out to buy the company, rather they want to buy into it an retain an option to buy the entire company. Well, at least that’s what is rumoured. Seriously, I really like that Yahoo! are planning to integrate social features into their site. I just don’t think that the two companies are a good match, nor do I think they have a snowball’s hope in disrupting the chief disruptor: Google.

Europe just passed legislation allowing the use of mobile phones during flights. That’s just great, not. I find it stressful enough dealing with airports and hordes of impatient people clambering over each other to get onto a flight first and take up their position in a cramped seat with 29″ legroom. Now I have to listen to people talking over engine noise!
