3000MB does not equal 3GB

Critic's Realm, Techie February 3rd, 2009

I find it so annoying when companies and individuals, who are in the technology business or are technically inclined, incorrectly calculate storage space. For example Wordpress founding member Matt Mullenweg, in his “Free Space to Three Gigabytes” post states that the free space on Wordpress.com will be increased to 3,000 MB, yet the title states that it will be increased to 3 GB. If the later was true, then a simple calculation will should that he space should actually be 3,072 MB. What ’s worse is that Kristen Nicole from Mashable, a technology oriented website, simply restated the announcement instead of correcting it.

Do you guys have any robots you would like to have. Leave me some links to pictures or videos of your favorite/wish to have robot in the comments below.

Last time I saw my dad was at the Sofia airport in Bulgaria in August of 1998. Since that time I have talk to him on the phone, but I have seen only 1 picture of him and that was probably 4 or so years ago. I was very excited to see him and I really wanted for him to see me! Thankfully I had Amanda’s web cam.

Skype is just a technology. There are many other methods making video conferencing possible. Skype is simply one…
