Mobile phone use twice as dangerous as talking to passengers
A new study published in the latest edition of Accident Analysis & Prevention has found that talking to passengers in the car is less dangerous than talking on a hands-free phone.
The study is a follow-up to one published two years ago that established that drivers chatting on the phone were more than four times more likely to have an accident than those driving in silence - but that study made no comparison with talking to passengers in the car.
Now researchers at The George Institute for International Health, Sydney Australia, have filled that gap by talking to 274 drivers attending hospital in Perth, and asking them what they were doing just before their accident.
The results show that driving with two or more passengers more than doubles the chances of having an accident, but using a mobile phone increases the chances of having an accident by a factor of more than four.
The effect of trying to get directions on the phone while being screamed at by two children wasn't established, but it's probably worth taking extra care over the weekend.

PROXIMITY BASED DISCOUNTS VIA MOBILE TEXT
Volunteers sign up for adverts
Mobile advertising can work. In a trial with 1,000 volunteer customers, Singapore operator M1 has launched a location-based marketing drive. Having opted-in, a user walking along Orchard Road, a main shopping street in the city- state, receives messages offering discounts in stores or restaurants as they approach them.
Shopkeepers, who are typically cutting 10 per cent off prices, capture customers who might otherwise have passed them by. Restaurants can offer discounts to attract early and late diners, extending their full-capacity hours.

BT signs up HBO, Universal for VoD
Home Box Office, maker of The Sopranos, Six Feet Under, Entourage and Curb Your Enthusiasm, is to supply content to BT Vision, the video on demand service from BT, along with Universal, which will provide access to their library of music videos.
The content will be available from May by subscription, or per episode. IN due course each series will be available in its entirety.
Individual episodes will cost between 79 pence and ₤1.50, with subscriptions depending on the bundle.
The Universal deal includes its entire catalogue of music videos, along with music-related documentaries and live concerts. Some documentaries will be as cheap as 29p, with a decent concert costing up to ₤2.99.
This, the latest in a string of deals signed by BT, is notable only for the inclusion of the HBO brand. Nothing is exclusive, so expect HBO content to turn up elsewhere.
But it's certainly a good selling point for BT when it can offer an entire series of The Sopranos or Six Feet Under, on demand.

Skype boys christen video venture
Start-up formerly known as Venice Project created by Skype and Kazaa founders Niklas Zennstrom and Janus Friis - has been renamed Joost.com.
The service is one of several aiming to change the way we watch TV, or at least how we access video content online.
The software is in beta and available for download from here.
Joost uses peer-to-peer technology to distribute video content. The service will be supported by TV-like advertising. The software is currently Windows-only but Joost hopes to be available for Mac and Linux machines in the next few months.

VoIP-powered model car racing is go
A version of Scalectrix has been developed with the slot cars controlled by shouting down a VoIP line.
The game is the brain child of developer Christopher Paretti. The volume of a voice signal is processed and hooked up to act as the equivalent of squeezing the trigger on the perennial children's favourite.
The subtlety of the manual version's control system is not lost though; Paretti suggests steady chanting may be better than intermittent barking down the phone.
So there you go. Chris' site with accompanying wholesome family fun pictorial accompaniment is here.
Parents can look forward to damaged ear drums next Christmas it seems.

Three Explorers Are Captured...
A Frenchman, an Englishman and a New Yorker were exploring the jungle and were captured by a fierce tribe. As they sit in a hut, awaiting their fate, the chief comes to them and says, "The bad news is that now that we've caught you, we're going to kill you, and then use your skins to build a canoe. The good news is that you get to choose how you die."
The Frenchman says, "I take ze poison." The chief gives him some poison, the Frenchman says, "Vive la France!" and drinks it down.
The Englishman says, "A pistol for me, please." The chief gives him a pistol, he points it at his head, says, "God save the queen!" and blows his brains out.
The New Yorker says, "Gimme a fork." The chief is puzzled, but he shrugs and gives him a fork. The New Yorker takes the fork and starts jabbing himself all over -- the stomach, the sides, the chest, everywhere.
There's blood gushing out all over, it's horrible. The chief is appalled, and screams, "What are you doing???"
The New Yorker looks at the chief and says, "So much for your canoe, asshole!"

Britain's unluckiest man falls down manhole
16 major accidents during lifetime of mishaps
A 54-year-old Doncaster unfortunate - dubbed "Britain's unluckiest man" - has continued a lifelong tradition of mishaps by falling down a manhole, Ananova reports.
John Lyne, of Stainforth, near Doncaster suffered injuries to his back, left leg and both knees as a result of the tumble, and will be out of action for 32 weeks, according to the Doncaster Free Press.
Lyne's career began as a child, when he fell off a horse and cart and was run over by a delivery van. As a teenager, he fell from a tree and broke his arm. On his way home from hospital - on Friday 13th - the bus he was in crashed, provoking another fracture in the same arm.
Since then, he's been hit by lightning twice, fallen victim to a rock-fall in a mine, has nearly drowned and has enjoyed three car crashes.
Lyne said: "I don't think there is any reason or explanation for it though, it has just happened really. I have to particularly be careful on the Friday 13ths, when a few accidents have fallen."
The poor bloke added: "Everyone thinks it is just hilarious. My mates, family and wife Susan just laugh about it."

South African man throws pregnancy sickie
A South African man has been fined £70 for forging a sick note claiming he needed some quality time tending his unborn baby, Ananova reports.
According to Sapa news agency, 27-year-old Charles Sibindana "stole a medical certificate from a health centre used by his pregnant girlfriend", but failed to take into account he lacked the necessary womb to pull off the scam.
Magistrate Bruno Van Eeden in Vereeniging, near Johannesburg, slapped the master skiver with the aforementioned fine and told him "not to walk around faking sick letters from gynaecologists".

RTX ships 'first' cordless Skype phone
Danish handset maker RTX Telecom today launched what it claims is the first cordless Skype phone that doesn't require a PC. That's what the blogs are saying, at any rate. What RTX is really claiming is to have shipped the first RTX PC-less Skype handset, which is a bit like Honda making a big deal about how it's the first company in the world to ship a Civic with four wheels.
rtx telecom dualphone 3088 skype cordless
RTX's Dual Phone 3088 isn't the first PC-less Skype phone by a long chalk. Philips announced one back in September, and both Logitech and Panasonic launched similar products earlier this year. And then there are all the Wi-Fi-enabled Skype phones from SMC, Netgear et al that likewise require no PC.
The 3088 uses a DECT connection to communicate with its base-station unit, which plugs into a broadband router. It also hooks into the phone network to allow it to operate as a standard. Outgoing calls can be made either way.
RTX claimed the 3088 offers ten hours' talk time and almost six days' standby-by operation.

Wary launch imminent for BT broadband telly Vision
BT will quietly launch its long-trailed TV over broadband service Vision on Monday.
The IPTV package brings the 30ish Freeview channels plus a host of premium on-demand content to the firm's broadband base. A set-top box will offer Sky+ style PVR capability with its hard drive able to store 80 hours of programming.
Click here to find out more!
A string of deals with content providers Disney, Channel 4, SonyBMG, the FA Premiership, and others will see movies, music videos, and sport available on a paid-for basis to supplement Freeview channels. BT says there will be no charges for unwanted Vision services - anything apart from Freeview will be opt-in.
BT will not begin big splash advertising of Vision until spring. Next week's launch will see pricing and programmming strategy fleshed out, but early numbers will be carefully watched to avoid embarrassing supply delays. A spokesman said the firm would be taking a "sensible approach" to the rollout.
The problems experienced by Carphone Warehouse and Orange in the rollout of their "free" broadband services earlier this year have acted as an augury to the rapidly converging communications and media industries.
Elsewhere, O2 has made it clear it is concentrating on establishing the infrastructure of its broadband service before a marketing push. Along with Vodafone it will eschew a "free" pitch in favour of emphasising quality of service.
Few expect BT to wrest a very large portion of the pay TV market away from Sky and cable monopoly NTL (soon to be rebranded as Virgin Media). The rationale backing Vision surrounds customer retention and adding value to its position in the broadband market.

Britain wide open to alien invasion
Britain wide open to alien invasion
Actual aliens this time, not an enlarged EU
The British government is shockingly underprepared for an attack by extraterrestrials, an ex-MoD man has claimed.
Nick Pope, a career civil servant who spent four years heading up the MoD's research into UFO sightings, is concerned that credible evidence of an alien threat is being ignored and that Britain is "wide open" to attack.
According to an article in London paper The Evening Standard, Pope said: "The consequences of getting this one wrong could be huge. If you reported a UFO sighting now, I am absolutely sure that you would just get back a standard letter telling you not to worry. Frankly, we are wide open - if something does not behave like a conventional aircraft now, it will be ignored."
Pope explains that he became convinced of the reality of alien visits to Earth while he was investigating reports of UFO sightings. The MoD investigates all of these to make sure that British airspace has not been compromised.
He says he has seen no evidence of hostile intent, but suspects that the planet is being covertly reconnoitred.
What he doesn't say, is what sort of plan should be in place to deal with any wannabe alien marauders. After all, if some big green lizardy things with arm-mounted bazooka-death-ray-guns did show up and want to take over, we'd be hard pushed to mount a credible defence.
"One is left with the uneasy feeling that if it turned out to be so [hostile aliens on the rampage], there is very little we could do about it," Pope notes.
Quite so.
So what convinced this otherwise mild-mannered civil servant that the truth was out there?
He says although most sightings can be explained away, there are a few that defy conventional explanations. He cites two examples: the first from 1993 when numerous RAF personnel reported a vast triangular craft flying above their bases. Hundreds of members of the public also called in sightings over a period of several hours.
The second is from 1980, when RAF staff in Suffolk found a landing module of some kind in the woods. According to the reports, it flew off when they arrived to check it out, but subsequent examination found that the footprints it left behind were emitting 10 times normal levels of radiation.

UK Telecoms
Just pick up a copy of Comms Dealer magazine and you would be hard pushed to read about an industry going through any problems. Lots of Mergers and acquisitions, strong sales and company growth, new technologies emerging by the week. I also see a merging of entertainment with telecoms which is definately an area to watch....
Bluetooth and Wireless Headsets
One of the greatest developments that has happened in recent years is the emergance of bluetooth wireless headsets. A fantastic device that can potentially connect your landline, with your mobile phone as well as operate IP telephony over your PC. Thats 3 forms of verbal interaction with one device, all at the same time. I'm sure there are other applications for the wireless headset but I'll wait for the posts to follow....
The only problem now though is everyone walking around with these cyber devices hanging off our heads. Not to mention the weird sight of people walking along talking to themselves. Small price to pay...

Skype users hang on for free calls
Skype users hang on for free calls - Promotion gone wrong
Skype user forums are filling up with angry customers who signed up to the Voice over Internet Protocol firm's free UK calls promotion.
The only trouble is they are still being charged for calls. The cock-up has done little for Skype's reputation for "customer service".
Punters who bought £10 of Skype credit were supposed to get six months of free calls to UK landlines, including the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.
But dozens of customers who paid their £10 are still waiting to have free calls activated.
A statement from Skype said: ""We are really sorry to hear that some users have experienced problems with Talk for Britain. We are working extremely hard to resolve these issues and will update our website as soon as the problems are resolved."

SkypeIn not in right now
SkypeIn not in right now - Incoming calls routed nowhere
Skype, the popular VoIP service, has been having technical difficulties with its SkypeIn service which enables Skype users to have a real phone number and receive normal phone calls through their Skype service.
Users report that only a small proportion of calls to UK numbers are getting through, with voice mail failing and some users not receiving any calls at all.
The problem seems to have surfaced in the middle of October, but has been getting steadily worse since, and is now so bad that Skype is mailing those who complain to apologise and promise compensation. But with business customers reporting lost clients, and personal users missing out on contacts, it seems unlikely that Skype will be able to satisfy many of the affected users.
Only the SkypeIn service appears to be experiencing problems. SkypeIn allows incoming calls from the normal phone network which are routed to a Skype account, or it would do if it was working.
SkypeOut, the service which allows Skype users to dial normal numbers, uses infrastructure supplied by BT and is working fine, and Skype-to-Skype calls are also connecting without any problems.
In theory, any call experiencing problems connecting to a Skype account should instead be routed to the voice mail service. But some customers report that all their incoming calls have been routed to voice mail, regardless of their availability, while others have no voice mail functionality at all. Many users are realising that an unreliable phone service can be worse than no phone service at all, as callers receiving an unobtainable signal may well assume the worst.

IP phone man's VONAGE Hell
Vonage has apologised after coding slip-ups caused one of its customers to be billed 80 times - at a cost £5.99 per occasion - for changes to accounts that didn't belong to him. He found out he was able to see other customers' account details and credit card information when he logged into his Vonage account. The IP telephony firm had changed his number so many times that his Linksys router had given up to the ghost. To add insult to injury, he discovered he'd been billed scores of times for changes to other people's accounts.
Other customers were subsequently assigned numbers temporarily given to him.
He'd been unable to receive voice mails for 18 months since becoming a Vonage customer, a problem he attributes to the phone number merry-go-round he's been forced to endure. The problem peaked last week when he was able to see one of five other customer's personal and billing details at random when he logged into his account.
Since reporting his problems to Vonage, the IP telephony firm has sorted out the mess and he says he's now able to login and collect voicemail for the first time in 18 months. "I went to Vonage for the convenience of using the service when I go abroad and as a way of reducing my phone bill. In the end, I'd have been better to stay with BT,"
He said Vonage reps in New Jersey told him a scripting error was the root cause behind why he was assigned continuously changing numbers. Numbers temporarily assigned to him were reissued, which goes some way towards explaining why he could see other people's details when he logged onto his Vonage account, while not exactly getting to the bottom of the problem.
In a statement, Vonage said the mix-up was an isolated problem, for which it apologised.
"Vonage has conducted a thorough investigation of the issues raised. We found that in this customer's circumstance there was a temporary problem in the transfer of voicemail facilities following a change of number, due to an upgrade of the voicemail service, for which we apologise. While we cannot publicly discuss an individual's account details and usage, we can reassure Vonage customers that this was a unique and isolated situation. Vonage takes security extremely seriously, and appreciates the vigilance of this customer in raising their concern."

The Convergance Summit @ Sandown Park
Recently attended the Convergence Summit at the famous Sandown Park in Esher which proved to be very interesting indeed. In attendance was most of the great and good of the telecoms world and Microsoft even made an appearance via a seminar hosted by their European Director of Convergance. By far the most talked about subject was of course Hosted IP telephony. Everyone was screaming on about getting with it or risk falling behind in the channel stakes. There were of course a few nay sayers but these tended to be the elder statesmens and there were also a few neutral commentators who cleverly disguised any alliance (Tony Blair could learn a few more lessons here!. Overall, a refreshing combination of companies from across the UK all excitingly embracing the plethora of new technologies flooding telecoms land. To the chap that organised it - Miles Blossom - well done mate. Look forward to next year :-)
