ohGr, 'Timebomb': Free MP3 of the Day

Subcultural industrial icon Ogre (Skinny Puppy, KMFDM, Pigface, Ministry, Revolting Cocks) evades obsolescence yet again by rewiring his abrasive synth-driven and polemical sound for the 21st century. Hailed as a pioneer of the industrial electronic scene, Ogre has remained innovative for more than 25 years by administering a blisteringly intelligent 'detailed post-mortem' on the slough rehashed by lesser, fading figures. Fans will find a familiarly corrosive array of electronics and percussion that fuels his vitriolic critique of corruption, ego, and infantile aggression, yielding nothing less than a sulfuric formula of antipathy and attitude force-fed down the throat of the musical and political status quo.

Gartner: open source software 'pervasive'

It is a wise manager that does not make decisions based on the survey data put together by the major IT market researchers. But sometimes a skinny bit of survey data is all you have to start with, and that data is better than no data at all - particularly if you're trying to make a case to upper management either for or against the deployment of a specific bit of hardware or software.

Apple has scratched last year's design in favor of a comeback to the iPod Nano's roots. Let's see what we think about the new iPod nano model.

Forget about the last iPod Nano: this newborn fourth-generation is the one that Apple fans have been waiting for since the launch of the sleek and skinny second-generation model, which had colorful display, capacity for photos and a great design, but yet played no videos. The third-generation, launched on September 2007, had finally brought videos to the Nano, but had disappointed on account of its wider body design. Now, Apple has brought together the evolution of last year’s third-generation with an improvement on that slender and ‘old-style’ design.

Nokia's E63 BlackBerry-Alike Arrives In His'n'Hers Colors

Nokia's just dropped the E63 onto the scene, based on the E71, and aimed at bringing "the QWERTY keyboard form factor to a broader audience at a great price" according to Nokia itself.

It also comes with 1GB of cloud file storage on Ovi so users will always have access to some of their files, and has Wi-Fi connectivity. We also know it has a camera, 3.5-mm audio jack and is in blue or red but Nokia's not revealed much else about its innards. Debuting in Europe for around $250. [Nokia]

Video Games Live

Video Games Live On Friday night, the English Chamber Orchestra were tuning up for something just a little bit different. The clientele, too, were perhaps not what you would expect to see at a performance of classically trained musicians. Bearded fellows in their twenties filled the seats, many wearing skinny t-shirts emblazoned with Super Mario or Sonic the Hedgehog. A huge screen hangs over the stage running a reel of retro video games, each new game that flicks into view bringing cheers from the gathered in attendance.

Acorns Disappear Across the Country

Hugh Pickens writes "Botanist Rod Simmons thought he was going crazy when couldn't find any acorns near his home in Arlington County, Virginia. 'I'm used to seeing so many acorns around and out in the field, it's something I just didn't believe,' said Simmons. Then calls started coming in about crazy squirrels. Starving, skinny squirrels eating garbage, inhaling bird feed, greedily demolishing pumpkins. Squirrels boldly scampering into the road. And a lot more calls about squirrel roadkill. Simmons and Naturalist Greg Zell began to do some research and found Internet discussion groups, including one on Topix called 'No acorns this year,' reporting the same thing from as far away as the Midwest up through New England and Nova Scotia. 'We live in Glenwood Landing, N.

Olympus E-30 Mid-Range DSLR Given First Quick Groping

Only yesterday we learned of Olympus's entry to the mid-range DSLR game with the E-30 and now the camera's had its first hands-on over at DPReview. And it seems ok: the team liked the fact that it had many of the features of the pro E-3—like the 2.7-inch 230,000-pixel viewscreen and 1/8000th seconds shutter speed—while being a little smaller and having those "art filters" for real-time image manipulation. The pitch/roll correction system got a thumbs up too, as did its nine aspect ratio options. We'll have to wait for a bigger hands-on to get the full skinny, but it looks promising for now.
