Cedar allergies hit Central Texas. My attemps to find remedies using direct navigation are largely fruitless.
Anyone who lives in Austin or San Antonio knows about “Cedar Fever”. Cedar Fever affects many people in this region, as pollen from cedar trees (a.k.a. juniper trees) explodes this time of year. Some people swear by natural remedies, such as spicy tortilla soup, but that doesn’t do it for true sufferers. My longtime remedy has been Allegra D combined with a nasal steroid. But apparently that wasn’t enough this year, and my doctor had to shoot me up with steroids (ala Roger Clemens) to get on top of it . I’m not the only one who suffers; there’s even a group in Austin that would like to see these trees cut down.
Domain name Iran.com at auction for $735,000; one suitor so far.
The domain Iran.com is up for grabs at Sedo after receiving a $735,000 offer. The auction runs through January 4 and the reserve has been met. If the sale closes this will be a heck of a way to kick off the 2008 year in the domain industry. According to DNJournal, Iran.com sold for $400,000 in June of 2007.
Iran is an important country, but it’s not the only geography domain to sell for big money lately. Earlier this month, Zimbabwe.com sold for $130,000 at Sedo. Sedo also sold Chinese.com — not a country but a geo-related domain — for €810,001 in July.
Internet devices, open systems and more secure social networks on tap.
The PC maker builds on in-store MP3 purchasing at Starbucks, while also embracing a patent similar to the controversial Windows Genuine Advantage.
Softness in the software market? Think again. While most of the big names have been snapped up by larger vendors, BI won’t be cooling down anytime soon.
