01 Cyber War: Hype or Consequences?
There's a lot of talk about the dangers of cyber war -
and about as much talk about how those dangers are being overblown.
So who is right?

-------------------------------------------------------------------
02 War on Illegal Pornography
Capitol hill briefing on pornorgaphy reveals brutal, addictive
nature of today's internet porn - Experts describe why federal
obscenity laws that prohibit distribution of hardcore obscene
material on the Internet must be enforced

-------------------------------------------------------------------
03 Telephone Number Scams
While this scam has been around for some years, too,
it seems to have re-emerged after being dormant for several years.
This time, it's NOT a hoax or urban legend

among other was at All Things Digital. He was interviewed
for an hour and a half.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
06 Can Anything Stop the iPad?
The rumors were all true, Steve Jobs took the stage at the
WWDC and presented the latest version of the iPhone.
So, Retrevo asked over 1,000 people (non-Retrevo users) what
phone they planned to buy this year and over 20% of the
respondents indicated an iPhone.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
07 Megatrends 1.0 for iOS
I have subscribed to a newsletter from Megatrends for at
least six years. That started with while I was Research
Librarian at RadioShack and discovered how useful their
program was to understand what was happening in consumer trends.
I found the announcement that they had 'an app for
that' very interesting.

too much liberty than to those attending
too small a degree of it."
- Thomas Jefferson

the middle aged suspect everything:
the young know everything."
-- Oscar Wilde
