How would you take email, instant messaging, collaboration, etc. to the
next level?  Google's answer is Wave and it's in limited release,  so
we'll take a look at it.

As you likely know by now, there's a new kid in town who claims to be
the "fastest gun".  Show us wha'cha got, Kid! (Maybe I should watch an
old western sometime soon... over the 'net, of course!)
Hopefully the roads will cooperate... and several of us will be full of
coffee and good food by then since we'll stop by our favorite place for
grub first - at:Waterloo Ice House8600 Burnet RdAustin, TX 78757 (map

Due to it being a holiday weekend and a family commitment on my part, we are
cancelling the Internet SIG meeting for January.

Please notice too that due to another commitment for the meeting room at the
North Village library, the February 6th meeting is moved from its usual time
to 2:00 - 4:00 PM that day.

Thanks & Happy New Year,
Mike & Joe

The Internet SIG was scheduled to meet at 2:00 pm because the North Village
Library had an event at 10:00.  The Library event is actually at 2:00 so we can
meet at 10:00 am.

Mike will discuss some of the latest development from Google, including the new
Google Chrome browser with extensions.

Joe will talk about some new Spyware that actually tries to charge you money to
remove it.  He will also show Malwarebytes, a program with a free version that
is quickly becoming the Anti-Spyware program of choice.

The Internet SIG, Saturday, February 6, 10:15 to 12:15 at the North Village
Library on Steck Ave. just West of Burnet.

TiVo to Offer Boxes That Go Beyond the Recorder

By BRAD STONE
Published: March 2, 2010
<<>>
I am now using TW recorder, but my ultimate expectation is alternative of
browsing the web from TV Box.  Have you noticed how cable news encourages visits
to their web sites, blogs and all?

..Tivo upgrade expected Tivo Premiere selling from $300 to $500 depending on
storage. ..with internet content.. it would be interesting to know what
available content other than Youtube. ..
"it takes broadband and broadcast and puts them all together as a single
experience" said Tivo's chief exec.  That sounds like a any internet viewing
option to me.
..of course there is a monthly fee from 12.95 on up depending on services..
Sure would like to see a session devoted to TIVO when the new boxes come out in
April...
by whoever is the first to buy the box.

Game on, Google! City of Round Rock to respond to Fiber for
Communities
RFI<http://roundrocktexas.gov/cc/blogs/decisionpoints/archive/2010/03/04/game-on\

  via Decision
Points<http://roundrocktexas.gov/cc/blogs/decisionpoints/default.aspx>by
Will Hampton on 3/4/10

It's official: The City of Round Rock <http://www.roundrocktexas.gov/> is in
the game for the Google Fiber for
Communities<http://www.google.com/appserve/fiberrfi/public/overview>project.

We've created a page on our website for project information,
roundrocktexas.gov/google <http://www.roundrocktexas.gov/google>. There,
you'll find links to a
survey<https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&formkey=dGdvN1ZqT0VOamNrUl\
IxX3dkdXdJa3c6MA>where
we ask about community support for the project, as well as links to
our Facebook page <http://www.roundrocktexas.gov/facebook> and a project
email box, roundrocktexasdotgov@.... We'll add to that page as needed.

We are in the process of completing Google's Request for
Information<http://www.google.com/intl/en/appserve/fiberrfi/Google_Fiber_for_Com\
munities.pdf>
(RFI),
which asks questions about demographics, community support, regulatory
issues, construction methods, etc. Building a fiber network is a complicated
process from a regulatory standpoint, so we'll be doing whatever we can to
streamline that aspect of the project. Deadline for the RFI is March 26.

We know many of you are eager to support this endeavor. The best way is to
complete the survey (use the link above) and/or add a comment to our
Facebook page or via Twitter <http://www.twitter.com/>. We'll be
brainstorming Twitter
hashtags<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hashtag#Hash_tags> and
other social media strategies from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. this Friday, March
5, at the Jelly <http://wiki.workatjelly.com/JellyInRoundRock> at Star
Co.<http://www.starcocoffee.com/>on Main Street.

We will also be reaching out to our institutional partners like the Texas
A&M Health Science Center<http://medicine.tamhsc.edu/campuses/rr/index.html>,
Texas State University <http://www.rrhec.txstate.edu/> and Austin Community
College <http://www.austincc.edu/rrc/> for their support. We'll be working
with the Round Rock Chamber of Commerce
<http://www.roundrockchamber.org/>to round up business support for the
project.

I'll update the City
Council<http://www.roundrocktexas.gov/home/index.asp?page=199>at its
7:30 a.m. work
session <http://www.roundrocktexas.gov/home/index.asp?page=9&recordid=11842>on
Tuesday, March 9. We'll have a resolution of support on the Council's
March
25
meeting<http://www.roundrocktexas.gov/home/index.asp?page=9&recordid=11934>agend\
a.

We are seeking your support. Take the
survey<https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&formkey=dGdvN1ZqT0VOamNrUl\
IxX3dkdXdJa3c6MA>and
let us know what you think.

How can we communicate to groups of people? There are a number of ways.
We'll look at several and concentrate on a couple.

There is (yet another!) new kid on the social networking block… with
some interesting twists, so we'll look into that too.

AAnonymous Surfing
may have some drawbacks

http://websearch.about.com/od/searchingtheweb/a/anonymous_2.htm

.."However, there is a slight chance that the anonymous server is recording your
data, and it is entirely feasible that a malicious proxy server can scoop up
everything on your machine. Using an anonymous server with a good user rating
and clear privacy policy should avoid this."

As I select links for anonymous servers, a warning is issued by:
http://www.windowsreference.com/firefox/mcafee-site-advisor-plugin-for-firefox-b\
rowser-security/
When using google or Yahoo search engines, this plugin lets me know when a site
is unsafe.  If I click on a link from browsing a safe site and notice the
warning I immediately close the tab.  Hmm!  Wonder if that is too late?

Does anyone have any suggestions on how do we find a safe anonymous server?

Is anyone doing this?

I was afraid this would arrive... it has a habit of doing that even though I

Anyway, just to verify, we are NOT meeting tomorrow.

Different social networking sites are like different flavors of ice
cream - some may be more to your liking than others.  There is a fairly
new flavor that is coming on strong, so we'll look at that.

A couple of sites many of us either use regularly or would if it did a
bit more have learned some new tricks too.  The "cloud" is getting
stronger and stronger.

Drivers can drive you batty, but there is help for that too.  Joe has
some experiences to share on this... and wants to hear about what others
may use and their experiences too.

So come on out and we'll all share!

Let's see....

     * There is a new way to answer the old question "So what's on TV
tonight?"  (Word of advice guys, don't ever answer "dust"!  [:)]  )
     * I bet you don't pick up your voicemail the same way I do!
     * How am I going to keep track of what I need to be doing.... sync'ed
with my phone, of course?
     * If only I could see what you're seeing... without having to set up
remote access

All these and perhaps a few more
