* * * * * Link dump I must be feeling better today, as at least I'm conscious. Anyway, doing yet another link dump, as I'm horribly behind on stuff around here. The next big thing in computing [1] (via Flutterby [2]), which is about dynamic scaling of computing (or websites). And then there's the real price of gasoline [3] (via Flutterby [4] again), which states that the price of gasoline here in the States is too low by $3.50/gallon due to government subsidies (and how with the artificially depressed prices, we'll never get around to fully developing alternative energy). And finally, acquaintance of mine [5] moved to Nicaragua [6] because, as he put it, “I've wanted to … outsource myself to someplace warm and sunny with decent DSL (Digital Subscriber Line).” Globalization can cut both ways I guess.
