PayPal goes offline. Hackers with political motivation, being called hactivists by the media are using a tool known as Low Orbit Ion Cannon to attack PayPal, MasterCard, and Visa.

Can I use a GPLed component in my WP7 application & showcase it at Windows MarketPlace? Hell yes!
Many feel that according to EULA of Windows MarketPlace one cannot use GPLed component in a WP7 application. Wrong! I just went through the Windows Marketplace Application Provider Agreement [http://create.msdn.com/downloads/?id=638]. I find that GPL is under an “Excluded License” section [Section 1.l]. Further, it states that if an application is a derivative of product under “Excluded License” then it is subject to the terms of “Excluded License” [Section 5.e]. This is just to make sure that the application developers should conform to the terms of “Excluded License” & Microsoft is not held responsible for those terms. I’m not a lawyer but according to the available resources I can infer that one shouldn’t have any problem using GPLed product in showcasing an application at Windows Marketplace.
Let me know if there is a different school of thought.

Less did I know that committing suicide was cool. Its on rampage. The last post was on seppukoo. It was just to commit suicide on facebook. Check this out, suicidemachine.org. They call it Web 2.0 suicide machine. It helps you commit suicide on facebook, twitter, linkedin & myspace. Wipe out your Web 2.0 identity! Unlike seppukoo, this one helps you kill yourself completely. No resurrection.
Sounds like some sick stuff, doesn’t it? Watch the video. The dude has some valid points.
Remember the news where the village head is proud of some kids naming their company after his village? Yeah, it was Google village. More Google love. Here is a post at TechCrunch on a school being named after Google, with a bit of typo. Indeed the name Google itself is a typo, isn’t it? Keep it coming…
Remember how Tom Cruise commits suicide in The Last Samurai? The very act is called seppuku in Japanese. Here is a site inspired from it called seppukoo. Have fun of committing suicide of your facebook profile. How weird? But its a trend. Hold on you gotta wait. Facebook has banned it to stop the suicide pandemic. Hope you can commit suicide when its reinstated.
2nd time in the row.
People cry for help:
