Watching this makes me realize that we don't need new regulations... we need new leaders... leaders who can compete and are knowledgeable on a global scale.

FaceBook is apparently set to launch their 'FaceBook Credits' some time next year - is this going to become a Universal Currency? Anyone have any updates or info, comments, on this?

Re:Police Assisted Apple Investigators in Search of SF Man's Home on Saturday September 03, 2011 @02:36AM (#2956681)

Sniff a big lawsuit in the making - sounds like their might be an illegal search and seizure going on here - BIG RIGHTS VIOLATION.

I believe this is a strict liability case - meaning - would the normal guy think that his rights were being violated and he was the victim of an illegal search?

In what capacity were the cops and everyone involved identified at the time of the 'crime'? Should they have gotten a warrant? I definitely want to know what kind of documentation was taken - sounds to me like a good old fashion ILLEGAL police state shake up?

Anyone else?

Take care of these cops - this is ridiculous.

Do you consider 'Google' competition or is your product/vision/direction so unique that they might be a complement?
