MySpace Music for US users only

Good and bad news for techies.

The good news: The new MySpace Music will be launched today, with its deep catalog of new music being added to the site from all the major labels.

The bad news: Only U.S. users will be able to access and listen to the music of MySpace Music.

MySpace has tens of millions of users outside the U.S. and they (we) won't be able to access it. I hope Friendster or FaceBook will launch their own version of MySpace Music and make it available to worldwide users.

Interpol's laudable efforts

Interpol's effort in identifying the bodies of the victims of Typhoon Frank, mostly passengers and crew of the capsized MV Princess of the Stars, is more than laudable. It should be considered heroic.

Shouldering all the expenses in putting up a P10-million mobile morgue and the cost of DNA testing for each retrieved body is a noble deed for a huge, international police organization. So far, the Interpol - Disaster Victims Identification team has already identified 164 bodies, 122 of which through the high-tech and much dependable DNA testing.

And their works have just begun, said Nimal Mahagamage, Interpol Incident Response Team Leader. "We will not stop until the last retrieved body is identified and sent to the family," he said.

A really laudable act although there a few who are questioning the motive of Interpol.
