0Last week I found a package in my my mailbox, at first I didn’t know what is was..
Until I opened it. The new Lamb Album! 5. It’s so nice! Check it out:

| Front Cover.. | Inside with the 2 discs.. |
Inside this book are little stories of Lou giving some background information of all of the tracks on the record. Very nice!

| Number 1803 / 2800 |
Inside the sleeve is a poster with a Lamb logo on it. But.. Wait.. It’s made out of names.
All the names of everybody who pre-ordered this album are on there, as is mine.

The album it’s really, really nice. Great sound, classic Lamb with some new sounds as well. Great album!
Happy they’re back! Can’t wait to go see them live somewhere..
The end of the net as we know it.. (Laat ‘t niet zo zijn..)

Dit moeten we niet laten gebeuren, zoals nu in Amerika op grote schaal aan de hand is. Netneutraliteit is een groot goed, maar wordt internet de volgende radio en televisie? Daar gaan we op deze manier wel naar toe. De laatste tijd zie ik veel van dit soort berichten en ik hoop dat dit niet echt werkelijkheid wordt! Maar het gaat wel die kant op!! Als je nog precies weet waar het over gaat, hier een filmpje met hoe het er nu aan toe gaat in the you ass of A (Verizon/AOL enz.) en een referentie naar de ontwikkeling van radio en tv (ook nieuwe media in de tijd..). Daaronder het laatste artikel dat ik er over las. (staat los van het filmpje).
ISPs are threatening to cripple websites that don’t pay them first. Barry Collins fears a disastrous end to net neutrality.
You flip open your laptop, click on the BBC iPlayer bookmark and press Play on the latest episode of QI. But instead of that tedious, plinky-plonky theme tune droning out of your laptop’s speakers, you’re left staring at the whirring, circular icon as the video buffers and buffers and buffers…
That’s odd. Not only have you got a new 40Mbits/sec fibre broadband connection, but you were watching a Full HD video on Sky Player just moments ago. There’s nothing wrong with your connection; it must be iPlayer. So you head to Twitter to find out if anyone else is having problems streaming Stephen Fry et al. The message that appears on your screen leaves you looking more startled than Bill Bailey. “This service isn’t supported on your broadband service. Click here to visit our social-networking partner, Facebook.”
The free, unrestricted internet as we know it is under threat. Britain’s leading ISPs are attempting to construct a two-tier internet, where websites and services that are willing to pay are thrust into the “fast lane”, while those that don’t are left fighting for scraps of bandwidth or even blocked outright. They’re not so much ripping up the cherished notion of net neutrality as pouring petrol over the pieces and lighting the match. The only question is: can they get away with it?
