Liquid Crystal Glasses → nytimes.com

Amazing stuff. Salvation of 40 something graphic designers and design professors who look at screens, print, then distance all in the span of 20 seconds.

Designs are not bad either.

Internet Runs Out of Addresses → wired.com

For real. Every bit has been assigned.

“IP addresses are like telephone digits, in that there’s a finite number of them. Unlike the telephone system, however, there’s no equivalent to the 718 or 346 area codes to expand to when Manhattan’s 212 is full. It’s as if every possible area code from 001 to 999 had been utilized or reserved. In some cases those “area codes” are full of paying customers, and in some cases the numbers are simply being held for future use or reserved for technical reasons, but the bottom line is no new addresses are available.”

Verizon’s iPhone → nytimes.com

Mr. Pogue reviews it. A must read before you even think of switching. It may actually make more sense, depending on your situation, to stay with ATT.
