IBM gives new meaning to swiping quarters, the other radio convention in Seattle and another reason to always know where your towel is.

  • It used to be that one of the necessities of college life was a good supply of quarters. Plenty of quarters in the dorm could land you mucho karma points. IBM is out to change all that with “eSuds.” Students will be able to swipe a credit card or punch a code into their cell phones to pay for washing or drying their clothes instead of performing favors for quarters.
  • Radio and Records reports that the same folks who caused such a ruckus at the 2000 NAB Radio Show in San Francisco, will be back for more mayhem at this years show. The activist group called The Cascadia Media Alliance has been assailing the NAB for “keeping control of the airwaves away from the public and firmly in the hands of big business.”
  • A Bulldozer begins demolition on the wrong house, with the family inside eating dinner. Talk about sh*t on a shingle
  • Cnet has a review of last weeks copyright catfight. The RIAA website hack, the RSS dead pool goes dark from legal wrangling. Apple invokes the DMCA over DVD software and so much more.
