- Dans le désert de ma solitude, loin de mon prince charmant, mon coeur s'ennuie. Je suis en manques d'amour,de tendresse, de caresses et de baisers. Mon âme voyage à travers nos souvenirs qui sont passés mais demeureront toujours présents. Mes yeux explorent le vide, revivant les scènes de nos rencontres. Parfois, une larme descend sur ma joue car je n'ai plus de place pour remiser ma peine. |

- DoCoMo, the leading carrier in Japan, has announced new 900 series phones. These are 3G phones which ship with the Flash Lite player. Macromedia hasn't released new specs on the player, but apparently it is a revised version of the Flash Lite player that shipped with the 500 series phones last year. The video specs on these phones are really impressive. The 2 mega pixel cameras are pretty impressive specs as well. |

- John Varley has launched an official web site. There's not a tremendous amount of original content there as yet - and considering how long we have to wait between novels, I'd prefer he not spend too much time rectifying that particular deficiency - but the site does host a decent bibliography and some basic biographical data. There's also a collection of VarleyYarns, a series of short rants, reviews and ramblings he's distributed to friends over the years. <joke class="obscure"> |
