Homotron Week In Review: Week Ending 12/8/2007

For those of you in college (like me), finals week is here (or approaching), and you may be stressed out with all the projects and tests (like me.)

If so relax, have a breather, and take a gander at our weekly review!

On to the linkage:

• HD Format War: Blu-ray kicks all kinds of ass during Black Friday Weekend (of doom!), and Michael Bay throws out some HD-DVD conspiracy theories to send HD-DVD fanboys into a tizzy.
• Klipsch's Sarah Knight gives us a funny, people forward look at AV equipment. It's worth a read!
• Chimpanzees > humans (the ID proponents will really love this.)
• Rumorama: Dell wants to get a piece of the iPhone action. Hah! Right.
• Speaking of the iPhone, Germany relocks the iPhone, leaving France as the only land of free-roaming iPhones, milk, and honey...
• What would our weekly review be without some Google news? Gmail and AIM hook up for some steamy after hours talk.
• Feature: Jesse James takes a look at the Twitter revolution. I'm on Twitter too!
• AT&T says "me too!" in the face of Verizon's open network announcement. There are now two happy snowballs in hell.
• Facebook continues to be in hot water for its new Beacon ad network, keeping track of even logged off user's buying activities. Jesse James delivers his take on why Beacon can still succeed.
• Microsoft takes a step in the right direction and removes Vista's kill-switch. Now solve the problem and kill WGA all together, you hear me Microsoft?
• Preview: If you're tired of IE, Firefox, or Safari, take a look at the Web 2.0 version of the Internet browser.
