I don't know how this will affect Plato Press but Devhub will have a Temporary Maintenance:

DevHub v3.0 is soft launching tomorrow morning (June 2nd) at 6am Pacific Time (PDT) with a ton of new features, a slick new editor, and elements of fun to help you build a better presence online! An email regarding the launch will be sent out to our loyal DevHeads, so you can get first lick at all the candy we've put into this version of DevHub (its been a year in the making) before anybody else!

To accommodate for this monumental launch, we will need to take the DevHub service offline from 12 midnight to 6am PT, June 2nd. We apologize for any inconvenience but are sure you will agree that the downtime is worth it!!!

Maybe the move would solve Plato Press' problems which I know is causing dissatisfaction among ...

Spokeo.com can show you just how online privacy is almost a myth. And maybe this is why Zuckerberg of  Facebook don’t believe in it.

People who don’t reside in the USA should be thankful sometimes. In the US, there’s a website named Spokeo in which anyone can find your name, age, ethnicity, marital status, religion, politics, address, home phone number, mobile phone number, e-mail address, social networking profiles, photos, videos and blogs -just for a monthly subscription of $2.95.

Go ahead and search yourseelf on Spokeo.com and be surprised to see how much information about you is available to anyone. -ABCnews.go

Most probably, the problem is that most people don't care about online privacy (like me before). And the problem with that is that they don't realize that that's an advantage to hackers and scammers. Bottom line: we can't ...

Aircard for a Handy Network Connection

When there’s no handy network connection, the aircard is an excellent alternative. What more, this is your best choice ifyou don’t want to share your connection with anyone. Unfortunately, aircards tend to suffer from high network latency, so you can expect sluggishness and slow response times when loading Web pages over an aircard connection. Network games are also generally unplayable on them for this reason. Overall, aircards cannot compete with the overall performance levels of DSL or broadband Internet connections.

Most website owners have two major problems -the technical or, their forums which include member’s and visitor’s comments. Many people use the internet to get help or advice. But since useless and malicious comments are now fast increasing, editors are forced to decide just how open their sites should be.

‘It's easy to lose your temper on the Internet. Anyone who reads — or writes — comments on blogs and news sites knows that the conversation can quickly stray from civil discourse to scathing personal attacks. For years, many websites just let users go at it, and free speech reigned. But now editors are rethinking just how open their sites should be.

‘Many people who want to participate in online discussions are quickly turned off by the nastiness. Miki Hsu Leavey, a resident of Napa, Calif., wrote a heartfelt, thankful letter to her local paper, The Napa Valley Register ...

Most religions if not all teach us that dreams could foretell what would happen to us. Now what if we could control our dreams? That would simply mean we could control our future doesn’t it?  

‘...The first study suggested that people who frequently played video games were more likely to report lucid dreams, observer dreams where they viewed themselves from outside their bodies, and dream control that allowed people to actively influence or change their dream worlds – qualities suggestive of watching or controlling the action of a video-game character. 

‘A second study tried to narrow down the uncertainties by examining dreams that participants experienced from the night before, and focused more on gamers. It found that lucid dreams were common, but that the gamers never had dream control over anything beyond their dream selves...’ -Live Science -Video Gamers Can Control Dreams, Study Suggests

Maybe this author idolized his fictional hero too much and so turned fiction into reality.

(NEWSER) – Drugstore Cowboy author James Fogle is back in jail after taking yet another page out his own book. The author, whose book about his life of robbing pharmacies to feed his drug addiction became a 1989 movie starring Matt Dillon, was arrested this week for robbing a Seattle-area pharmacy. "He's 73 years old and this is probably the only thing he knows," a police spokesman told the Seattle Times. Fogle—who was wanted in connection with several other pharmacy heists—and an accomplice have been charged with first-degree armed robbery. -Seattle Times

This might make it to The Most Bizarre Crimes -surfing the internet for victims to persuade them to commit suicide. And someone succeeded in doing that.

(NEWSER) – A Minnesota man accused of seeking out suicidal people online and persuading them to kill themselves has been banned from using the Internet until his next court hearing. William Melchert-Dinkel—who allegedly posed as a female nurse in suicide-related chat rooms—has been charged with two counts of aiding suicides, but prosecutors say he boasted of coaxing dozens of people to commit suicide for the "thrill of the chase," the BBC reports.

Melchert-Dinkel, 47, offered victims fake compassion before giving them detailed advice on suicide methods and pretending to enter into a suicide pact with them, according to prosecutors. He faces up to 30 years in jail if convicted, although legal experts say a conviction may be difficult to obtain because most laws ...

Yahoo CEO Tells Tech Blogger to 'F*** Off'

After refering to Yahoo employees as 'the fine people of Yahoo’, she tells Arrington of TechCrunch to fuck off

(NEWSER) – Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz, never one to mince words, turned up at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference today and wound up telling TechCrunch founder Michael Arrington to "fuck off." The famously potty-mouthed exec didn't like the line of questioning the blogger was pursuing, and she reminded him that he's "involved in a very tiny company."

‘The TechCrunch transcript mysteriously omits the context, so we'll let ZDNet—and the video above—fill in the blanks. Bartz has been at Yahoo just 16 months, "so I don’t want to hear any crap about something magical that the fine people of Yahoo are supposed to do in ...

Having allergies protects us from cancer and the pollen that tortures us could be saving us from a terminal disease

(NEWSER) – If pollen leaves you cursing your runny nose and itchy eyes each year, take solace in this upside: Allergy, asthma, and hay fever sufferers have significantly lower risks of developing many cancers. New studies show that asthmatics are 30% less likely to get ovarian cancer, while kids with airborne allergies are 40% less likely to get leukemia. That may be because people sensitive to allergens have advanced immune systems, and expel cancer-causing toxins when they sneeze out irritants, say experts.

"'More work is still needed, but the numbers show allergy is a statistically significant protective factor," an epidemiologist told the New York Post. Other recent research has linked allergies to lower risks of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, pancreatic cancer, and stomach cancer. Unfortunately, scientists can't "give" allergies to those ...
