I read an interesting article on google in the October issue of wired that was talking about how all these competitors and hackers want to sponsor legislation to make google a publicly-regulated utility. Their argument is that the google pagerank algorithm should be made public domain, since the success of any online endeavor depends to strongly on it, and since e-commerce is the wave of the future, etc.. I have no doubt that google vs. the federal government will become a supreme court constitutional issue before the end of the decade. Crazy shit.

The work also takes advantage of psycho-acoustic phenomena and the physical effects of low frequency information.” I don’t know if you’re into this genre, but if you happen to find it for a few bucks on the used bin it’s worth picking up. It’s quite spectacular to listen to on a stormy night.
