TomTom includes carpool lanes in their planning for routes in the United States. I've seen it in California and Connecticut. A big red screen shows up and asks "Route uses carpool lanes -- is this ok?". If I am driving alone,

Less fuss? I remember plenty of talk going on about this -- it hit the front page of many newspapers including the NYT and the Washington Post. The administration even acknowledged it to a degree. People have just forgotten.

I had the opportunity to meet Andre last summer while interning at Cisco. I had no idea who he was at first, until I looked him up on LinkedIn and "googled" his name. Towards the end of my internship, I was there until 10 PM some days worki

Not true -- you must purchase pack-rat unlimited history ($39) to be able to go back beyond 30 days. This is not included in the paid accounts. Both paid and free accounts have 30 days of deleted file history by default.

"Facebook is indeed intercepting messages -- the e-mail is clearly passing through Facebook's servers, but this seems to be where it stays, as neither sender nor receiver are getting a copy." Is this really appropriate use of the word "inte

Interesting that the author chose to use a Kill-a-Watt for power consumption monitoring.. seems like a better idea to use the planning applications available from the major vendors to determine usage depending on workload, etc. Dell and HP

I can't imagine why they decided email addresses now needed two layers of privacy controls. First layer = who can see this, second layer = is it visible on timeline. If I didn't want it visible on the timeline, why wouldn't I just select "O

Perhaps his Google+ experience is different then yours? I'm inclined to agree -- most people who I know have Google+ accounts, have added me to their circles (and vice-versa) but chose to keep all of their interaction on Facebook. The group

The same reason why browsers are now making it so tough to get to a website without a "valid" SSL certificate -- the average user will ignore the warnings and accept anything to get to their objective. This is one of the reasons why Google

Yeah, I was under the impression that it would be illegal also, but apparently the FCC hasn't concluded whether it should be allowed. MagicJack was planning to offer similar functionality in the past: "YMAX [makers of MagicJack] says it doe

I'm confused as well by this. From my perspective, in order to keep your business and personal lives separate (and private) you need two separate systems to work on. I have no interest in IT possibly being able to log or monitor my interact

I'm not sure I see what the big issue is with VPN access. The author complains that VPN connections choke the user's bandwidth, but I am not sure I know many examples of this. Typically through a VPN connection I will see higher latency to

This is the reason why most online relay services, such as i711, provide their users with free inbound numbers. When a call is received, the user is notified via a variety of mediums, including instant message, SMS, and I think some other d

This doesn't make much sense -- other audio/video sharing systems (GTalk / etc) would experience the same problem then. I believe you are referring to the one-party / all-party telephone recording laws, where in some states all parties to t

We live near each other -- according to their website, their business is right next to where I live. Yet, the address is of a parking lot... (10 E 3rd Street in San Jose). Strange.

If true, you could pretty easily take down a call center simply by calling up and leaving the lines open with no caller. Managers would need to be running all over the place. Since call center employees commonly have the ability to perform
