After the launch of Facebook Chat was promised last week, Facebook is finally rolling out the feature. Even though the release is limited at this time, Inside Facebook was lucky enough to get a look. It appears that the rollout is on a per-network basis, with reports coming in that many of the Ivy League schools and Stanford are among the first to have access.

While it is disappointing that Facebook Chat does not integrate with other IM services, it’s

Then the chip apparently went through a variety of significant design changes. It will still be the first Itanium to sport Intel’s serial processor communications link (QuickPath Interconnect–QPI) and integrated memory controllers. Those are both major enhancements, but otherwise Tukwila is a more conventional quad-core evolution of current Itanium designs. It will also be manufactured with a 65-nanometer process instead of the denser 45-nanometer process already used by the newest Intel Xeo

Last week, another session on Apple FileVault was pulled at the request of its presenter, Charles Edge. He reportedly signed an agreement with Apple preventing him from talking about the vulnerablities he’d found.

One of the primary purposes of a traditional protest is to educate the general public about a particular injustice or situation of concern. People along the street who aren’t involved in the demonstration are exposed to the chants, literature, and picket signs, and are forced to think critically about an issue they may not otherwise be focused on. News of the cyber-dissident demonstration will likely only travel by way of those who chose to report on it.
