While at the post office today I noticed that Australia Post have released Star Trek: The Next Generation Souvenir Stamp Sheet. I’m not sure what prompted them to release this now, but there are bound to be some interested collectors.

For geeks, face your browsers toward space.com for live updates on the first privately-built spacecraft that will carry a human into space.

Be quick, the lauch is happening right now!

As Engadget says, “once SpaceShipOne gets in to sub-orbital space, the Vulcans see this, they land, we get world peace, then we fight the Borg.”

Update : SpaceShipOne is airborne.

I listened to Cory Doctorow’s speech on why Microsoft should abandon DRM, which is just as applicable to other corporations, on my iPod on the way home from work today. Through the wonders of Creative Commons his written speech has been converted into an MP3 by Jason Kottke and can be found on his blog. If you prefer audio input, or haven’t got the time to read it like me, then go and grab the track. It’s a very compelling argument and worthwhile for anyone interested in technology, arts or law.
