Potential referee scheme
When you think of football, you think of one of the oldest team sports in the world and definitely the king of modern sports.
This being said, very rarely are there any changes in the rules or the way football is being governed. Still to be approved in a board meeting today, UEFA is planning to change the number of referees that will be present during a game from currently 2 side referees and 1 central to add 2 more behind the goals.

New iPhone 3Gs, 3.0 Update, Greatest app in MobileMe
Posted by Adrian Rusu in Multimedia on June 12th, 2009
InnoBunny was 1 month late anticipating Apple’s release of its newest iPhone. Final date: June 17, 2009 (in US and other six countries), Singapore probably a month later to fulfil Innobunny’s predictions.
Personally, I was a bit dissapointed to see the same old phone on the outside with an improved hardware. Basically, the new phone doesn’t have as much glamour as everyone expected it to have. For this read more at Apple’s iPhone website.
On the other hand, the 3.0 firmware update has been now under testing for quite some time and that is something every current iPhone user is excited about. Just to mention a few of the updates:
- MMS
- Copy/Paste
- Landscape keyboard
- Better Calendar with enhanced Microsoft Exchange support
- Spotlight search
- Autofill in Safari (yeah!!!)
- Sync notes
- updated Mobile Me
Actually MobileMe comes up with a new Find My Phone feature that is useful for all of those users who have a tendency of misplacing of losing their phones.

It sounds Chinese, right? Bing? I mean first impression… Chinese/Microsoft? Hm!
When I heard about Bing, the newest search engine from Microsoft, my first thought was of the Chinese pancake (煎饼 = jian bing). It also means “sick” 病. So, from a Chinese perspective, I would say the name is not well chosen. But, not being a Chinese national, I might be wrong. www.bing.com
