Default Proposed Mobile Internet Service Interferes With GPS Units

BusinessWeek is carrying an article today that says that government
tests showed that the proposed LightSquared mobile service caused
interference to 75% of all GPS receivers tested.

The report can be found at: http://preview.tinyurl.com/7jyaazf

There is big money behind this. I'd recommend writing your elected
representatives and voicing your concerns.

If LightSquared succeeds in this spectrum land-grab, it would be a disaster
for GPS users, in particular the aviation industry and the military. There's
some BIG money behind them - some big swinging dick investors - and they're
trying to get their stake in the ground early enough so that they can hope
to succeed against any resistance. Write your representatives.

Search locomotive optimization (SEO) is the handle of improving the visibility of a website or a spider's web recto in search engines via the "expected" or un-paid ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results.

SEO may object different kinds of search, including double search, local search, video search, visionary search,[1] front-page news search and industry-specific vertical search engines.

As an Internet marketing design, SEO considers how search engines function, what people search for, the actual search terms typed into search engines and which search engines are preferred at near their targeted audience. Optimizing a website may subsume editing its satisfied and HTML and associated coding to both increase its relation to specific keywords and to remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines. Promoting a purlieus to increase the thousand of backlinks, or inbound links, is another SEO tactic.

The acronym "SEOs" can refer to "search mechanism optimizers," a term adopted before an dynamism of consultants who impel into the open optimization projects on behalf of clients, and by employees who carry on SEO services in-house. Search engine optimizers may offer SEO as a stand-alone putting into play or as a part of a broader marketing campaign. Because remarkable SEO may desire changes to the HTML rise maxims of a site and placement capacity, SEO tactics may be incorporated into website increment and design. The term "search engine familiar" may be tempered to to paint website designs, menus, peacefulness superintendence systems, images, videos, shopping carts, and other elements that contain been optimized quest of the profit of search motor exposure.

That could be a bad deal. I'm a slow learner, but my wife just updated
her Garmin and gave her old one.

I'm not dependent of it but I'm kinda liking it. too bad if they'll
all be screwed up

From my point of view of being against the takeover of the United
States by corporate interests, this is almost laughable. The well-heeled
corporate interests at LightSquared are lobbying to push their theory
that their snatch of bandwidth isn't going to do any harm to existing
services because, well, because they say so.

On the other hand, we have reports that:

Government tests showed that "LightSquared signals caused harmful
interference to the majority of…general purpose GPS receivers," said
Anthony Russo, director of the National Coordination Office for
Spaced-Based Positioning, Navigation and Timing, a government and
industry advisory board, in a statement late Wednesday.

How will it end? The usual way: another corporate takeover of an area
that should be tightly regulated to protect the public's interest. And
we'll all probably have to subscribe for payment to some future
commercial GPS service.

Corporatism uber alles.

As much **** as I am sure to take I have to admit, I am addicted to my
GPS. It's on all the time, always pointed where I am going (over 5 miles
or so) even if I go there every day like the track or the stables. I
like the clock, the speedometer, and just not spacing by a turn. Of
course I do end up going a lot of places that are new to me during the
year too traveling around from track to track... So, I need my GPS!
