Ezratrumpet writes "A recent PC World article notes that 20 percent of the U.S. population has never sent an email. Does this number over- or underestimate the actual number of people who know nothing of email? What are the implications of this statistic to our society? Or are these people just Luddites who mourned the demise of the telegraph and have also never used a telephone?"

It might be tempting to post your grievances online and let the entire world know about it, but no matter how much you want to do it, don't. Sensitive information, pictures or even opinions directed at individuals might one day find its way back to you. Here is a list of the four things you should never blog about.

You may remember AllofMP3.com, the discount Russian music site that offered DRM-free music. The company, despite having no official relationship with the major labels, claimed their model was entirely legal under Russian law (something several Russian courts agreed with). After U.S. diplomats pressured Russia to shut the site down or face denied entry to the WTO, Russia obliged. The RIAA has now dropped the lawsuit claiming victory, oddly never noticing the owners simply set up a mirror website dubbed MP3Sparks.com.

Never wash your car again? Never clean your windows? These may well become reality if it becomes possible to produce the right coatings—coatings that imitate the self-cleaning effect of the lotus blossom.

"I will never cease to be amazed at how fast things change and how quickly people forget. Today's example is a Slashdot posting with the title, 'Why Buy a PC Preloaded with Linux?' Specifically, the dotter--slasher really doesn't give the right tone--wants to know ''Why should I buy a PC preloaded with Linux?' They are more expensive, and it's not hard just to reformat the PC with Linux. I hate paying the Microsoft Tax as much as anybody else, but if paying that 'tax' allows companies to reduce my price by bundling with my PC products that I will never use, why wouldn't I just buy a Windows-loaded PC and reformat?'

Whoever penned the old adage "a watched pot never boils" surely never tried to heat up water in a pot lined with copper nanorods.

It's about to get that much easier to create a tempest in a teapot.

It’s a great time to be in retail e-commerce, because the choice among available technology has never been greater. It’s also a really challenging time, because choosing among available e-commerce systems—and how far to go with them to engage customers—has never been tougher.

From what we've heard, a 22-foot robot can be a pain to keep. Sure, it sounds great at first—get carried everywhere, never wipe yourself again—but you never know when a robot will reach singularity and gut you in revenge for making it love like a real person.

If an account is exempted (i.e., protected) in a bankruptcy filing and you agree to continue paying on that account, but the account holder never contacts you regarding fulfilling that, what should you do? I financed a mattress set with a balance of $400 when I filed for bankruptcy and the finance company never contacted me about finishing the payments.

If you were to ask me to list my all time favorite arcade racers, there will be one inclusion that you may not have expected - Monster Truck Madness. While it was never the most technically sound racing game made, it will always hold a special place for me as one of the first I truly enjoyed as a youngster. However despite the fame of that series, and despite the fact there is something about monster trucks and video games which just go well together, it has never been an overly successful pairing, with mostly only low budget generic efforts to speak of. This trend is set to continue with Activision's and Torus Games' recently released Monster Jam for the Xbox 360, because while it seems to offer what you'd expect from a monster truck game, it is overall a very generic racer that doesn't really standout.

The idea of the Force is one of Star Wars' most iconic legacies. A whole generation (or two) have grown up secretly wishing it was real so that they too could raise an X-Wing from a swamp, choke an enemy across a table or simply pull the TV remote into their hand from the other side of the room. Yet for all the potential of its power, even in Episodes 1 to 3, we never really seen anyone fully let loose with it, never see anyone really use it in anger, as a weapon in its own right. Step forward Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, the upcoming game from LucasArts that promises to, as the name suggests, unleash the power of the Force.
