How Much Would You Pay to Use Google? →
Let’s say Google wasn’t free. Would you pay to use it? How much?
Just a few things to consider.
1. There are alternative, free services you could use instead (let’s say they will remain free)
2. You probably pay $50-$100/month for your cell phone and $75-$100/month for cable TV
3. How much of your decision is influenced by vendor lock-in? For example, switching search engines is easy but...
Arin: Do you want chicken for dinner?

Verizon Raises Post-Paid SMS Rate To 20c →
Verizon (NYSE: VZ) has raised its post-paid SMS rate from 15c a message to 20c a message, following Sprint’s move three months ago, reports RCR News. Naturally, this is just a cynical push to get users to sign up to bundles of messages—SMS is the most expensive use of data on a per-meg basis, so there’s no justification for raising the price on the basis of supply costs.
@jedalp id you told me you were going to be hilarious, i would have started following you earlier!
