Skype It Up: Hooked On Data [Infographic]

Skype It Up: Hooked On Data [Infographic]

By Ryan Van Etten on 05/30/2010

Call me crazy, but I was surprised to see that only 13% of international call minutes last year were on Skype. I thought that number would be higher—I think it will be within a few years because of the amplifying access to computers both at work and home. Then there’s mobile VoIP. Skype already has apps for iPhone/Blackberry/Android/Symbian, and it’s only a matter of time before the majority of cellphones are smartphones.

Censorship and Media In An Expanding Internet Population—Do You Feel Censored On The ‘Net?

Censorship and Media In An Expanding Internet Population—Do You Feel Censored On The ‘Net?

By Ryan Van Etten on 01/20/2010

Blocking sites = blocking progress. I’m American. It’s hard to imagine über-restricted Internet surfing. In the U.S. internet censorship does exist in workplaces, libraries, and schools but U.S. censorship is minimal compared to Chinese censorship. Censored sites in China include wikipedia.org, amnesty.org, nasa.gov, digg.com, bbc.co.uk, cnn.com, guardian.co.uk, facebook.com, flickr.com, tumblr.com, wordpress.com, youtube.com, and—WTF—even disney.com is censored.
