1. Comment - FCC Chairman: Spectrum deficit could set wireless data back 50 years

   This is not necessarily true. You have to have open frequencies available to add more cells, and in densely populated areas, it is highly likely that all available frequencies are already being used, which will prohibit adding more cells. Now, you can narrow the bandwidth of existing cells (that you control at least), but by limiting the bandwidth of each cell, you'll be limiting the amount of data on a cell, you limit the amount of data you can process through it, which brings you right back to the same problem.

2. Comment - Web royalties compromise means fee hike for Pandora, perhaps others

   $0.99 is a steal, it really is. When you consider how much it really costs to stream music, you're very likely not to be able to make up that cost with advertising alone. Think about it this way: your cable TV still costs you money for the basic package even though there's advertising all over the place.

3. Comment - Geeks vs. journalists: A tale of two worldviews

   (Jul 3, 2009 - 10:26 PM)

   This was an extremely well written and well thought out article. I think in a lot of ways it applies to things far beyond the scope of just journalism if you really look at some of the problems we're facing in our economy.
   
   We've traded old fashioned apprenticeships for college education, and the result has been a workforce that is almost afraid to be truly specialized in whatever it is that they do. We've become trained to think that niches are too narrow to make a career with, so we end up trying to be too versatile and too diverse for our own good, so that we'll be versatile enough to change directions on a whim.
   
   The problem is that the more generalized we become, the more replaceable we really are.
