			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Billionaire media mogul Rupert Murdoch gave a strange response when asked about plans for mainstream news websites to charge for content, declaring, “The current days of the internet will soon be over.”<br />
<div id="attachment_96" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 409px"><a href="http://itlet.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/rupert_murdoch.jpg"><img src="http://itlet.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/rupert_murdoch.jpg" alt="Rupert Murdoch - Media mogul" title="rupert_murdoch" width="399" height="298" class="size-full wp-image-96" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Rupert Murdoch - Media mogul</p></div><br />
He was making reference to the fact that corporate media websites cannot continue to survive under their current failing business model.</p>
<p>The establishment media is dying and advertising revenue has plummeted as people turn to blogs and the alternative media for their news in an environment of corporate lies and spin.</p>
<p>This has forced sectors of the corporate media to charge the dwindling number of loyal readers they have left for news content, a practice which is set to become widespread according to Murdoch. This will only send more people over to the alternative media as the old organs of de facto state-controlled propaganda wither and die.</p>
<p>“Asked whether he envisaged fees at his British papers such as the Times, the Sunday Times, the Sun and the News of the World, (Murdoch) replied: “We’re absolutely looking at that,” reports the Guardian. “Taking questions on a conference call with reporters and analysts, he said that moves could begin “within the next 12 months‚” adding: “The current days of the internet will soon be over.”</p>
<p>Murdoch’s newspapers and TV networks, which include Fox News and the Asian Star Network, have seen profits plummet from $216m to just $7m year-on-year. MySpace.com is also floundering despite a recent move to replace the company’s entire management staff.</p>
<p>It was all but over for the Boston Globe this week, following a threat to close the 137-year-old publication after net losses of $85 million this year alone. Only a last minute cost-cutting agreement on behalf of its owner, The New York Times Company, and The Boston Newspaper Guild, saved the newspaper.</p>
<p>But it’s not just establishment newspapers that are struggling to survive &#8211; social networking websites like Twitter and corporate online video giant You Tube are also deep in the red. Apparently, paying out millions in server fees for half the population of the planet to watch clips of cute puppies isn’t a sustainable business model.</p>
<p>This is why You Tube is being forced to pursue lucrative partnerships with giant production studios and broadcasters, at the expense of user generated content which has been relegated to a sub-section of its website, taking the “You” out of You Tube altogether. Content that may be deemed harmful to You Tube’s corporate agenda and its multi-million dollar partnership deals, like The Alex Jones Channel, is being systematically erased from You Tube’s website under the pretext of flimsy copyright infringement claims.</p>
<p>The jig is up for the corporate media. If they continue to allow free access to their content they will go out of business because there’s not enough advertising revenue coming in, whereas if they charge for content they will lose a huge chunk of their audience and their influence in shaping the news agenda will wane completely.</p>
<p>This is the price the corporate media has paid for lying, spinning and obfuscating on behalf of the virulently corrupt power elite and expecting the population to eat it up without question.</p>
<p>The corporate media monopoly has terminal cancer and they are losing their power, which is why they are aggressively supporting moves to phase out the old Internet altogether and replace it with “Internet 2,” a highly regulated and controlled electronic Berlin wall, where alternative voices will be silenced and giant corporate propaganda organs will dominate once again.</p>
<p>This is what Murdoch is really getting at when he assures us that, “The Internet will soon be over” and it’s down to us to stop that agenda from being realized.<br />
This is outrageous and unbelievable, let us put a stop to all this nonsense ! </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Worried about getting your car back after it’s been stolen?<div id="attachment_64" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 330px"><img src="http://itlet.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/car_thief.jpg" alt="Text car" title="car_thief" width="320" height="240" class="size-full wp-image-64" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Text car</p></div><br />
Well, you might be able to text your car to stop the thieves from getting away with it. The system could work in conjunction with your cellphones text message capabilities and your cars computer system.</p>
<p>What is this for exactly? Well if your car is ever stolen for some reason, all you have to do is send a text and it’ll be relayed to your car and start to shut it down. You text your vehicle and inform it that it has been stolen. It will actually initiate a sequence of events that causes the car’s internal computers, that won&#8217;t be modified at all, to think that the car has overheated.</p>
<p>The car actually goes into limited power mode and you can only go about 30 kilometers an hour, and basically you are running on half the cylinders in your car. 30 seconds will give them the time, the thief or whoever, to pull over. And then after that it will shut the car down right away.</p>
<p>This is just an idea, for now. After that, the onboard GPS unit will text you back the location of your car, so you can go pick it up (preferably with the authorities).</p>
