Finally.  A perfectly legit copy/paste way to get stuff from Safari and into an email.  It’s not perfect, but it is still awesome.  There is no app to buy or install.  It is all script based and goes into the PasteBud.com servers.  Gizmodo has the video demo. Check it out.

The website, PasteBud.com, opens Friday.

According to Gizmodo and a French publication, rumors are going around that iTunes will be DRM-less tomorrow.  No, not just some tracks from some music labels. ALL of them.

The VERY lucky guy, Brian, got to go on a Virgin America airlines test flight. The cool thing about this test flight? IT HAS INTERNETS! Here’s the 10 things Brian had to say about it.

“1. Your last bastion of Internet Free peace is gone. Forever. You’ll be forced to work on flights instead of valium napping or reading comic books, and your boss will expect you to be checking email. Time to plan a camping trip.
2. Total bandwidth is not as fast as Cable Modem, but it seems faster than slow DSL. (We were sharing 3.6Mbps down and 1.8Mbps up, which isn’t bad at all, on this Virgin America test flight, and it felt this fast when benching.)
3. But bandwidth is shared between customers. Aircell’s GoGo a 3GHz EVDO-Rev A related tech modded for ground to air, started crawling as soon as other passengers signed on. (I got a test result measuring 66kbps down at one point, but Ryan showed about a mbit down. )
4. You have to pay. Virgin America charges, for example $9.95 for flights under 3 hours, and $12.95 on flights over 3 hours.
5. You will still need to close your laptops and shut off your devices until you reach cruising altitude.
6. Most airlines, even those that are not blocking ports, are blocking known VOIP ports. For our sanity. Although I WAS able to initiate a really solid iChat video session, but they may filter this on real flights. 7. Although plenty of airlines will have Wi-Fi by the end of next year, I prefer Virgin America because they’ve got 110v AC power plugs in coach.
8. WiFi porn won’t be blocked by Virgin America or American Airlines (according to a test earlier this week.) But blocking porn is silly — people can easily play porn on DVDs or predownloaded files, but people generally have refrained so there’s no reason to think they’ll do otherwise now.
9. Flights using Go Go service will be able to connect to a VPN.
10. You can file share with other computers on the 802.11 a/b/g Wi-Fi network. That’s good for gaming, but also, make sure your firewall is up.”

Sounds awesome. Thanks Virgin America!
