Siguen las idas y vueltas en el caso “Microsoft-Yahoo!”, pero en esta ocasión se incorpora un tercero: AOL, la división de internet de TimeWarner. Luego de que Yahoo! rechazara la oferta inicial de 44.600 millones de dólares por parte de Microsoft para quedarse con la empresa, parece ser que Yahoo! está buscando por otros sitios alguna financiación para salir a flote.Me entero a través del portal de The Wall Street Journal que la cúpula de Yahoo está negociando con el grupo Time Warner una posible integración o fusión entre el portal y AOL, para crear una alternativa a la oferta de Microsoft.No sé qué tan seria sea la propuesta de fusión entre estas dos empresas pero lo que sí creo es que una de las funciones de esta nueva competencia para los intereses de Microsoft es au
One of the worst ideas I have seen this year.Time Warner Cable Inc said on Wednesday it is planning a trial to bill high-speed Internet subscribers based on their amount of usage rather than a flat fee, the standard industry practice.The second largest U.S. cable operator said it will test consumption-based billing with subscribers in Beaumont, Texas later this year as a part of a strategy to help reduce congestion of its network by a minority of consumers who pay the same monthly fee as light users.The company believes the billing system will impact only heavy users, who account for around 5 percent of all customers but typically use more than half of the total network bandwidth, according to a company spokesman.Think that this will not become the standard? Time Warner Cable, which has 7.
CNBC reported recently that Time Warner may be ready to embrace a plan to break up their company. This led people at ComicBloc (via Newsarama blog) to wonder if it'll lead to DC being cut adrift from Warner as well, which bought ownership of them as early as 1973.
If this happens, and it does lead to DC Comics becoming a seperate entity (though I assume, still part of AOL?), would this be good
In what has to be a one of a kind speech, the head of Time Warner Edgar Bronfman that the mobile industry should not make the same kind of mistakes that the music industry made. This is a great win for people who want to own, buy, and consume music. But nothing in this statement will be worth while until the lawsuits stop, and some form of accommodation is reached between P2P, Bittorrent, Users, makers and suppliers of digital entertainment.
It is all good and well to have an epiphany; it is something altogether different if no action is taken on that idea.

I wrote a couple of weeks ago how their roadrunner service doesn’t hold a candle to the overall performance of DSL. Last week I experienced 4 hours of not being able to open a web page. I never had a total of 4 hours of down-time during 5 years with Verizon DSL.
Today the cable is out. I called their number provided for business accounts, since that is what I have, went through the prompts a total of 4 times, and was disconnected each time at the point I should have been holding for a live representative.
Now I have been on hold for 43 minutes. I called and followed the prompts for new service hoping that would get me to a live human quicker. No dice!
I’m going to be in bed tonight trying to sleep while hearing the following phrase running through my head.
“We apologize for the delay. Please remain on the line for the next available representative.”
At least I can have them on speaker phone while I listen to the automated apology.
