Deepnet Explorer, the world's first browser with RSS news reader, P2P client integration and phishing alarm. The browser's superior security, functionality and usability, makes Deepnet stand out from the crowd.

It has been a long time since Microsoft Internet Explorer had this much competition: Firefox, Opera 8, the beta of Netscape 8, and now Deepnet Explorer. Technically, Deepnet Explorer uses the same browser engine as Internet Explorer, so it is hard to call it a true competitor. Unlike its staid progenitor, however, Deepnet Explorer offers several built-in innovations that most Web surfers want, including better security features,

An unofficial version of Google Earth for Mac was leaked on December 9. As you would expect of a program that is not yet ready for release, there are bugs, unimplemented menu items and window management issues so use it with care. But the program looks and feels fantastic!

Social bookmarking service del.icio.us announced on Friday that it had been acquired by Yahoo.

What are network media environments? Here at Ravensbourne College of Design and Communication, this is the kind of question we think about all the time. Even when we sleep. Sometimes our dreams now have Firefox border to it. But then again we are obsessives, especially Elkin. Anyway, we like to think that network media environments about people. So here is our inaugural 'Network Media Hall of Fame', made up of the most influential people in our emerging world.

Do you agree? This being a networked media environment. You can disagree. Is there anyone missing? Is there anyone we should delete? What other lists do you want to see? Do you dream in Firefox, too?

HTTP presents Abuse of the Public Domain, the first solo show of networked media art by UK artist Stanza.

This exhibition features large-scale projections of 2 works, which use live real-time data from CCTV cameras cited in two cities, London and New York . Security tracking data is Stanza's chosen medium for these process led artworks.

YOU ARE MY SUBJECTS uses data from a single fixed camera in NYC, focusing on subjects as they pass below it. AUTHENTICITY [Trying to imagine the world from everyone elses’ perspective, all at once] draws its imagery from cameras all over London. Bother works can be viewed in a web browser via the Internet and turn us all into voyeurs of eerie 'parallel realities'.

“CCTV systems are everywhere in the public domain. Millions of hours worth of data are recorded every day by these cameras. We are all unwitting bit part actors, in the filming of our own lives. Usually we cannot watch, the results are not collected for broadcast back to the public. Rather they are monitored, filtered, distributed and archived without our knowledge or permission.

What is untrusworthy Media and why do we trust certain media to give us the TRUTH what is the TRUTH... is the UK media giving us the truth about Iraq are they giviing us the truth about White Phosphorous in Iraq, is it true that smoking is bad for you dispite what Woody says... Is marijuana bad for you!!! or is it good for you!!!

How do we define the TRUTH and what leads you to accept information as the truth... Digital truth? Conventional paper truth? or Vocal truth?
