Aerosmith: The Tyler Saga Continues.... Who wants to become the new singer for Aerosmith? The lead guitarist with one of America's most successful rock groups said that he and his bandmates were "positively looking for a new singer to work with," following a rift with energetic frontman Steven Tyler.

Aerosmith's future still in doubt.... Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler joined estranged bandmate Joe Perry on stage in New York in hopes of setting the record straight about the future of the feuding rock group. Co-writer and guitarist Joe Perry, who said earlier this week that the band was "positively" seeking a new singer, indicated on Wednesday that all was still not well in the band. In an interview with Rolling Stone, he referred to Tyler as an "acquaintance". Steve Tyler, on the other hand, told celebrity website TMZ.com after Tuesday's appearance that "there is absolutely no validity to the rumour that Aerosmith is breaking up". Perry told Rolling Stone he was just as surprised as fans when Tyler showed up at the venue, and asked to sing the encore tune. "Being an acquaintance of 40 years, I said, 'Why not?'" Perry said. " So he came up and sang and that was the last I saw of him." read more: http://fwd4.me/46g source: Reuters image: Fair Use/Youtube/Screengrab: STEVEN TYLER/AEROSMITH....IN OR OUT

iPhones across Australia lit up with the face of '80s crooner Rick Astley this week as a Wollongong TAFE student made international headlines for releasing the first virus to infect the popular smartphone platform.

Using Windows is like living in a communist bloc nation circa 1981. And don't change it. I admit it: I'm a bigot. A hopeless bigot at that: I know my particular prejudice is absurd, but I just can't control it. It's Apple. I don't like Apple products. And the better-designed and more ubiquitous they become, the more I dislike them. I blame the customers. Awful people. Awful. Stop showing me your iPhone. Stop stroking your Macbook. Stop telling me to get one. Seriously, stop it. I don't care if Mac stuff is better. I don't care if Mac stuff is cool. I don't care if every Mac product comes equipped with a magic button on the side that causes it to piddle gold coins and resurrect the dead and make holographic unicorns dance inside your head. I'm not buying one, so shut up and go home. Go back to your house. I know, you've got an iHouse. The walls are brushed aluminum. There's a glowing Apple logo on the roof. And you love it there. You absolute monster. read more: http://fwd4.me/2bW source: GUARDIAN image: Fair Use/Youtube/Screengrab: Windows 7/Mac OS X Snow Leopard: "Windows is like the faint smell of piss in a subway: it's there, and there's nothing you can do about it.

The economic value of "Fair Use".... Copyright law involves a delicate balance, and in the U.S. fair use is an important part of that equation. This study suggests that it's also an important part of the U.S. economy. read more: http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/200...f-fair-use.html image: Fair Use/Google Public Policy blog/Screengrab: FAIR USE....By enabling journalists, scholars and the general public to quote from and comment on others' writings, the fair use doctrine underscores basic rights of free expression.

i agree mate....he`ll have a job on his hands....google has practically "embedded" the concept of Fair Use on the internet, at least for the purposes of description and/or review....it`s precisely the argument used by Google in their current copyright negotiations with the various associations representing authors around the world...

Rupert Murdoch Plans To Hide His Sites From Google, The World Yawns.....

Upon watching this interview i have come to this conclusion... Rupert Murdoch is an idiot....an extremely rich idiot...but an idiot none the less... That may sound just a bit presumptuous of me to call the incredibly wealthy Rupert Murdoch an idiot especially when I am currently a pauper. Nonetheless the man makes a fool of himself everytime he opens his gob and talks about HIS model for making money on the internet with news. He shows he just doesn’t get it.... Here is an interview he did explaining, well….not explaining very well, just how he plans to hide his sites from the omnipotent Google.
