A New Way to Search on eBay: Through Your Favorite Stores

Sometimes I'll be surfing through eBay and feel completely stumped. I'll know I want a cute little bag, but don't know what brand or even, particularly, what color, and typing in "little bag" will garner an overwhelming amount of (often hideous) results. But then today, I was just vine-swinging through the site and realized that a lot of sellers tell you where they bought the item that's for sale. So literally, you can type the name of a store that you like into the Clothing, Shoes, & Accessories section and have your search considerably narrowed down. Here are a couple of stores I played with:

Livermore researchers use carbon nanotubes for molecular transport

FAST FLOW THROUGH CARBON NANOTUBES: The animation starts with the depiction of the water flow through a regular "rough" pipe. The molecules near the wall stick to it and move much slower than the molecules in the middle of the pipe. Colors indicate the speed of the molecules -- green are fast, yellow are slower, red are the slowest. The rough pipe fades and the carbon nanotube appears. All the molecules in the carbon nanotube move fast (green). They do not stick to the surface of the nanotube because that surface is very slippery. The water molecules travel in chains because they interact with each other strongly via hydrogen bonds. These two effects (the slippery nanotube surface and formation of water molecule chains inside the nanotube) combine to produce this phenomenon of ultra-fast flow through carbon nanotubes.

RIM gives BlackBerry keys

New Delhi, May 20: Makers of BlackBerry have agreed to give the security agencies the key required to intercept messages sent through the device. This move could compromise security of mails sent through BlackBerry. BlackBerry is used by top businessmen, politicians and mediapersons, who are most prone to eavesdropping. "Misuse of the key by the security agencies can’t be ruled out, even phone tapping regularly happens in India," said a telecom analyst. Another analyst said that most businesspersons send their corporate mails through BlackBerry and now it could be accessible.

BlackBerry's reach, deals to help fight iPhone

Optimism Remains Heavy on Downtrending eBay

Ahhh, the king of online shopping -- or maybe the Mecca of Internet auctioning -- is eBay (EBAY: View sentiment for EBAYsentiment, chart, options) . I am not going to act like I am a stranger to a website that is almost entirely devoted to the art of shopping (yes, art), but for those of you who may not be familiar with the eBay concept, it is an online marketplace for the sale of goods and services, online payment services, and online communications. It functions through more than just the popular eBay.com website; it also enables online commerce through kijiji, gumtree.com, loquo.com, opusforum, half.com, rent.com, and stubhub.com, among others. The communications segment of EBAY operates through Skype, which is software that allows users to make telephone calls over the Internet.

Music sales through Rock Band compete with iTunes - and sometimes they win

Music sales through Rock Band compete with iTunes - and sometimes they win As music-based games like Guitar Hero and Rock Star continue to enjoy strong sales, they've also created an interesting niche market for music sales. In fact the two titles have reportedly sold more than 25 million downloads combined. While most of the songs which can be downloaded for each game are familiar radio staples, a handful are new or relatively new tracks that aren't nearly as well known. You might think that's a recipe for slow sales on the newer titles, but that's not necessarily the case.
