“And hell, what’s so fun about cybersex when you can’t hear the other person moaning and feel his/her heat for real?” says conancat.

end of work as we know it – itsReal

business week aplink

Increasing connectivity will change how and where we labor—even the very notion of an employer.

You have no idea how you’d get any work done on business trips if you didn’t have a laptop. You can’t remember quite how you lived without your BlackBerry. Your cell phone might as well be surgically attached to your ear, it’s so crucial to your job. Then there’s the Internet. It’s hard to conceive of getting through the day without Google (GOOG )—or, if you’re under 40, text messaging or even joining Facebook to stay in touch with your extended network of colleagues. In just a decade or less, technology sure has done a number on the way you work, hasn’t it?

Well, brace yourself. Over the next decade, the relentless march of computer power and Net connection speeds will bring more profound changes to work than anything we’ve seen so far. Consider just a few of the breakthroughs technology visionaries think we’re likely to see in coming years. Picture Apple’s (AAPL ) slick iPhone shrunk down to the size of a credit card. Then imagine it can connect not only to your contacts on the latest social network but also to billions of pea-sized wireless sensors attached to buildings, streets, retail products, and your co-workers’ and business partners’ clothes—all sending data over the Net to you.

THE RESULT:

What is Second Life – Philip Rosedale & Cory Onedrejka – itsReal

I came across this video (runs smoothly on my new MacBook) which runs for One Hour so sit back and relax and See what Second Life is all about !

Since its recording, Second Life now runs on 4400 + servers (250,000 sq kilometers) and the economy generates about USD 40 Million + per month.

TIPS on Creating a business in Second Life are a plenty.

I think Cory only wears Stripped Shirts…

The Video contains alot of GEEK talk, sorry but the audience is responsible for the Questions. Search in SL has always been a problem, even today at the latest Nexus 2007 Event (which was awesum) Cory is still looking for a talented search expert, applications are still open for a SEARCH guru, contact Cory direct.

You can be Killed in Second Life…Only virtually…and unlike the Real world you don’t loose everything, now that sounds Awesum. Second Life has stringent Parental Controls, so breath EASY parents. Also try to stay away from the CORNFIELD, it’s SL’s penal colony where u get sent if you misbehave in SL.

For budding singers, Live Music is available in SL every night…via shoutcast technology, singers collect tips and sell CD’s…a homeless person (with friends that have broadband) raised money to get a new apartment…

Final Comment: After viewing the video, any doubts you have about whether SL is here to stay will be completely erased…Second Life is an emerging new WORLD which is setting the landscape for unimaginable opportunities and freedom – itsReal

SPH Video News on-demand channel Now Showing on M2Btv Singapore’s First Broadband TV service

M2B World Asia Pacific opens signature showroom to service growing M2Btv subscriber base.

Previews Singapore-made HD broadband streaming content; Karaoke on-demand; Hong Kong action serial
and Da Vinci Code premiere before TV or cable.

Singapore | 20 January 2007 | M2B World Asia Pacific Pte Ltd (“M2B Asia Pacific”), a subsidiary of US-listed Amaru, Inc. today unveiled to media the SPH video news on-demand channel on M2Btv – Singapore’s First Broadband TV – at their newly completed signature showroom to service its growing base of subscribers.

M2Btv subscribers can now have first-ever access to on-demand video news content from SPH on their TV screens, with added international coverage from The Associated Press (AP). The SPH Video News channel also provides an interactive new media platform for advertisers to reach broadband-savvy consumers who want to view TV content on-demand, whenever they choose, in the comfort of their living room.

Content on the SPH Video News channel is compiled from AsiaOne, STI (Straits Times Interactive) and STOMP, running on a 7-day archive. This addition significantly enhances the current offering of 55 channels of video on-demand entertainment comprising local and international programming as well as casual interactive games like Suduko on M2Btv. Accessed through the Pony set-box using any high speed broadband connection, Singapore’s First Broadband TV service also provides M2Btv subscribers face-to-face video calls and messaging at no additional charges, along with online on-demand shopping.

Colin Binny, CEO of Amaru, Inc. told the media, “Since the launch of M2Btv last year, we have banked on continually expanding our offering of on-demand programming to deliver an alternative, value-for-money platform for home entertainment, with a rich array of content that has largely not been seen on free-to-air TV or cable.”

Previewed to the media, besides the SPH Video News content, were the following:

• Hollywood blockbuster “The Da Vinci Code” exclusively from Sony Pictures, and Hong Kong action serial “The Eliminators” will be available on M2Btv by end-January. “The Da Vinci Code” was previewed in Super High Quality, but is also available in Standard and High Quality to suit different home broadband access speeds.

• By early-February before Chinese New Year, a Karaoke on-demand channel, with over 10,000 songs of English and Chinese selection will be available to M2Btv subscribers to enjoy in their own living rooms.

• An original full high-definition Singapore documentary series entitled “Facets of a Nation” hosted by Lim Kay Tong and produced by Sitting In Pictures. The series chronicles iconic Singapore institutions like Hajah Fatimah Mosque, Central Fire station and Thien Hock Keng Temple will be available as broadband streaming HD content accessed through an advanced Pony set-top box to be launched in second half of this year.

“The market response has been better than expected, and we are on-target to sign-up 10,000 subscribers by mid-year,” added Colin.

M2Btv subscriber base is growing through distribution deals with major players like Harvey Norman, where each purchase of LCD, plasma or conventional TV’s will come bundled with a 12-month subscription. Meanwhile, AsiaOne subscribers can also look forward to a special subscription offer.

“We have a created a signature `WORLD ON-DEMAND’ showroom to better service and connect with M2Btv’s current and prospective subscribers” said Colin. “This concept store sets the benchmark for M2B World Asia Pacific as it expands into the region to establish our brand presence and a distinct visitor experience into the world of on-demand lifestyle.”

The M2Btv showroom is located at 112 Middle Road, 01-01 Midland House, together with M2B World Asia Pacific.
