Things We Loved This Week

In the UK, everyone is eagerly awaiting the hottest contest since England’s World Cup bid, Andy Murray vs. Rafael Nadal at Wimbledon today!


Another battle about to be fought, if rumor are to be believed, Google is working on a social service to rival Facebook called ‘Google Me’. While all previous attempts have been major flops, Orkut, Google Friend Connect, Google Buzz to name but a few, this attempt seems to have more optimism but I guess only time will tell.


Other highlights this week include:


On Thursday, Finland become the first country in the world to make broadband internet access a legal right for all citizens. The legislation forces telecom operators to provide a reasonably priced broadband connection with a downstream rate of at least one megabit per second. Let’s hope every country is soon to follow suit!


While the sun shined at Glastonbury last weekend, Orange also came up with a bright idea – super tagging! A super high resolution picture taken at the festival allows you to tag yourself or your friends in the photo. Zoom in and pan around to look at all the people who have tagged themselves in the picture.


Have a lovely weekend.
