Concurrent visitors are the total number of people simultaneously on your site at any one moment in time.

What is a “seat”?

A seat is an individual license to a personalized newsbeat dashboard and account. Seats give you complete flexibility over who sees what, so everyone is focused on what’s important to them. Each of the newsbeat plans comes with a preset number of seats, but you can add seats at any time.

Demand for the product was so prodigiously high that both of the foundation’s retail partners were unable to keep their websites running in the hours after the official launch. The $25 model is expected to come later this year.

A year late, hundreds of dollars short: Sony Tablet P coming March 4

Posted on by

The tablet has an NVIDIA Tegra 2 1GHz dual-core processor and 1GB of RAM running Android 3.2, with no reassurances that the tablet will ever be upgraded to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Each of the tablet’s two 5.5-inch screens has a 1024×480 resolution, and the device has two cameras: 0.3 megapixels on the front, and 5 megapixels on the back. The Tablet P has only 4GB of internal storage, which can be supplemented via its microSD card slot, and gets 7 hours of battery life. Skeptics of the body style aren’t going to be reassured at all by these middling specs.

But at the end of the day what has happened is that US law (in fact, Maryland state law) as been imposed on a .com domain operating outside the USA, which is the subtext we were very worried about when we commented on SOPA. Even though SOPA is currently in limbo, the reality that US law can now be asserted over all domains registered under .com, .net, org, .biz and maybe .info (Afilias is headquartered in Ireland by operates out of the US).

Yahoo Stabs Facebook In The Back, Says Pay For Its Patents Or Get Sued

Posted on by

Yahoo has long worked closely with Facebook, using the social network to power sign-up and login of its email service and Flickr. Just 11 days ago, Facebook congratulated Yahoo in a blog post noting its Open Graph protocol had helped Yahoo’s news reader app gain 25 million users, including 2 million each day, and more than 500,000 referrals a day. I doubt we’ll see such courtesies between these two anytime soon.

Cobbler is a Linux installation server that allows for rapid setup of network installation environments. It glues together and automates many associated Linux tasks so you do not have to hop between lots of various commands and applications when rolling out new systems, and, in some cases, changing existing ones.

With a simple series of commands, network installs can be configured for PXE, reinstallations, media-based net-installs, and virtualized installs (supporting Xen, qemu, KVM, and some variants of VMware). Cobbler uses a helper program called ‘koan’ (which interacts with Cobbler) for reinstallation and virtualization support.
