First it was cell phones in cars, then trans fats. Now, a new plan is on the table to ban gadget use while crossing city streets.We all seem to have one -- an iPod, a BlackBerry, a cell phone -- taking up more and more of our time, but can they make us too distracted to walk safely? Some people think so.If you use them in the crosswalk, your favorite electronic devices could be in the crosshairs.Legislation will be introduced in Albany on Wednesday to lay a $100 fine on pedestrians succumbing to what State Sen. Carl Kruger calls iPod oblivion.

NecSoft, a NEC subsidiary, offers BiodeLogon, a new software to log on to Windows. There are several ways to access a PC, but image recognition is probably the easiest one for the end user. With the NecSoft software, you just have to show your pretty face to the webcam to access your computer. NecSoft made this system as simple as possible so it can work in different situations. However, I haven’t found any info yet on how to prevent a hacker from showing a photo in HD to the camera instead of the user’s real face…

"We've been talking to Jeff for long time," Marvel's president of production Kevin Feige said. "He's excited about doing a movie like this, and we're excited to have him in this particular role. There are many facets to this character which I can't discuss, but looking at the spectrum of all of Jeff's roles, this fits in nicely with the man who played 'Starman,' 'Tucker,' 'Big Lebowski' with a little bit 'Tron' thrown in.

Yep, according to The Hollywood Reporter, one of Hollywood’s most vanilla filmmakers (what a piece of crap that “Night at the Museum” was!) is set to replace one of Hollywood’s finest (what a masterpiece that “Batman Begins” was!). It makes less sense than Kevin Smith doing a “Clerks” sequel.Goyer left the project – a project he’d been championing for years, even coaxing good friend Ryan Reynolds into starring in the eventual pic – because of creative differences with the WB. They just didn’t go for his script, apparently. Which begs the question… What the hell kind of script are they working from now? I mean, the director of “Cheaper by the Dozen” definitely won’t be wanting to challenge himself much, will he?? Heh?

ReadyBoost, which is used in conjunction with SuperFetch. While adding system memory is the best way to increase performance, Windows ReadyBoost allows you to utilize memory outside of system memory module upgrades. This feature is ideal for use in systems with limited memory expansion capabilities. For instance, if your notebook has a maximum memory capacity of 1 GB installed, Windows ReadyBoost allows for usage of a Flash memory device, such as a Kingston® DataTraveler® ReadyFlash as a more responsive storage medium for ReadyBoost cache.When a Flash memory device is connected to a Vista-based system, the AutoPlay dialog box will offer the option of using the device for ReadyBoost. However, the Flash memory device must meet both a performance and a capacity threshold in order for Vista to offer the option of using it for ReadyBoost.
