Ryanair goes too far*

Wednesday, July 01, 2009 10:05:42 AM (GMT Standard Time, UTC+00:00)

Apparently, popular low-cost airline Ryainair, is set to cut the ‘frills’ they offer once again. This time they are looking to get passengers to carry their own baggage to the plane! As one writer notes, “So there's no dropping things off at the desk, you cart it through security, round the duty-free shops, across the huge expanse of airport, and to the waiting plane.” (Source)

Sounds like fun doesn’t it! Beware..

Yahoo Quietly Pulls The Plug On Geocities*

Thursday, June 25, 2009 10:16:25 PM (GMT Standard Time, UTC+00:00)

Not with a bang, but with a whimper. Yahoo! is unceremoniously  closing GeoCities, one of the original web-hosting services acquired by Yahoo! in 1999 for $2.87 billion. In a message on Yahoo!’s help site, the company said that it would be shuttering Geocities, a free web-hosting service, later this year and will not be accepting any new customers.  (Full Story)

Ah.. another one bites the dust. I remember back in days gone by, when I was at Tripod (now Lycos Tripod), with my 25mb of space, and popup ads everywhere. I wonder if that will be next.

This article was interesting...

calories

“Most people don’t really know how many calories their every day food contains. Or how hard they actually have to work to get rid of that extra energy. So make 2009 a year when you make conscious decisions and stop the weight sneaking up on you (Source)”

Pizza is just ridiculous! Shessh!

Shoppers power their own checkout in new 'green' supermarket*

Monday, June 15, 2009 10:33:57 AM (GMT Standard Time, UTC+00:00)

This is quite nifty! Read below..

Customers at a new branch of Sainsbury's in Gloucester will generate electricity when they drive over 'kinetic road plates' on the entrance to the car park.

The devices will convert the motion of the cars into enough energy to power the tills inside the store, reducing the amount taken from the National Grid.
The Dorset scientist behind the idea predicted the devices would soon be seen in shopping centres, petrol stations and ports across the country. They are already being trialled at distribution warehouses but it is the first time they have been installed at a supermarket where they can be used by ordinary consumers.
