I'd be interested in hearing more about what you're doing and how (I have similar dreams). Shoot me an e-mail if you get a free minute (xhr@io2g.com).

I wonder if Google could offer special services at these stores beyond just retailed goods. What if they brought in a high capacity fiber line for every store? Bring in all your photos and videos and they can upload them in minutes for you.

Could this possibly cause a drop in exchange price for BTC? If this user bought a bunch of ASICs, he needs to make his money back which could mean selling a lot of coin on a regular basis. However, if most miners already sell, it shouldn't

I've seen you guys before, I'm gonna have to play around with this sometime. I like how you've decided to also be the publisher/CDN for the games. Right now it seems like everyone who launches some demo has to build and manage their own web

I'm really looking forward to seeing more gaming in the browser and hope it catches on. Imagine writing a game and it works on all platforms, PC, Mac, Tablet Android, iOS, etc. Also, TV manufacturers keep putting more powerful chips in thei

Very valid point. However, wouldn't this be true for all asteroid mining? Meaning if mining becomes a reality, it's something that will have to be accounted for. I'm guessing though that even by 2036 we won't be mining asteroids this big .

I know what you mean, and there has been wireless successful wireless startups so there is a case for it. The big issue though is bandwidth. With ubiquitous wifi hardware (thus cheap), you might be able to push 100Mbps (rough guess, I'm not
