NOAC and MSU Team Together for Success

MSU Housing & Food Services Web Site

Awesome article about this past summer's NOAC at Michigan State University. Turns out that almost 8,000 Arrowmen with money in their pockets can lead to Beaner's Coffee to quadruple sales and run out of straws. Now we just need a Beaner's in the NE, preferably near Alpine, NJ ;-)

Firefox Digs Deeper

The Motley Fool Web Site

IE falls to 82.1%, and Firefox gains to 12.46% of the total market share of Internet browsers. Safari even gained to 3.53%. Looks like the downfall of IE has begun. I would imagine that in a few years, these numbers may become closer to each other and even out.

How Wi-Fi changed the face of the world...

Greetings from Manchester-Boston Regional Airport! To my surprise, when I booted up my laptop about a half an hour ago, it turns out the Wi-Fi system here at the airport has become FREE!!!! It was only a few months ago when I flew out to MSU for the weekend that they were charging $10 a day (24 hr. period) to get on their Wi-Fi system. Now on the other hand, it is free to all travelers of the airport. This just adds one more thing to the list of Pros for MHT, and setting it in the class of a major airport.
