The Wall Street Journal this morning had a short article pointing out the somewhat obvious reasons why location-based services on cell phones are still not mainstream. It also helpfully pointed out that carriers were working on it. To recap, LBS services need three main things: a way to get location (which we have thanks to GPS chips and even the ability to triangulate using Wi-Fi networks), software that can make sense of geographic information and do something with it (which are out), and cooperation between handset makers and carriers to enable developers to access such services easily.

It’s the cooperation piece that fails, but the article points to several companies such as Nokia, uLocate’s Where application and SkyHook Wireless that are attempting to bridge that gap by offering a platform that will sit between carriers and smaller developers. For example, uLocate has signed a deal with Sprint to act as the LBS platform for its WiMAX network. Smaller developers can sign on through Where and get access to WiMAX subscribers without worrying about working with Sprint or getting the location information form a provider. I suppose since we’ve waited this long for LBS, most of us can wait a little longer.

The Iomega StorCenter ix2 is the latest compact network storage solution designed for consumers who need a stand-alone storage drive that can be shared by multiple computers over an internet or network connection. This compact file sharing solution allows friends, family, and coworkers to access the same files even if they work on different computers. Notebook users can also benefit by keeping important files on a networked drive at home, so a stolen laptop doesn't result in stolen data. Let's take a closer look.

The audience heard from five eminent scientists who battled it out for fungi, bats, plankton, primates and bees. /ppWhile of course all species are invaluable for our ecosystem, the debate is designed to raise awareness about conservation by asking the audience to vote for just one of the species to receive a fictitious cheque for one trillion pounds to be spent on their conservation./ppIt comes us no surprise that the audience voted to save the bees. Who would want a world without honey, flowers, and third of everything we eat including chocolate and coffee? Not me./ppSome 250,000 species of flowering plants depend on bees for pollination. Many of these are crucial to world agriculture. a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2008/aug/14/conservation.pollution"Bees increase the yields of around 90 crops/a, such as apples, blueberries and cucumbers by up to 30%, so many fruits and vegetables would become scarce and prohibitively expensive. /ppIn addition, many of our medicines, both conventional and alternative remedies, come from flowering plants. And cotton is another essential product pollinated by the bee, so we could say goodbye to cheap T-shirts and jeans./ppBut it's not just the human race that would suffer. Spare a thought for the poor birds and small mammals that feed off the berries and seeds that rely on bee pollination. They would die of hunger and in turn their predators – the omnivores or carnivores that continue the food chain would also starve. We could survive on wind-pollinated grains and fish, but there would be wars for control of dwindling food supplies. South America's ancient Mayan civilisation is thought to have died of starvation. /ppAlthough other insects and animals do pollinate – such as bats, butterflies and even wasps – none is designed like the bee as a pollinator machine. br /There are 20,000 bee species around the world including solitary bees, bumblebees and honeybees. Many are monoletic – pollinate one plant – others like bumblebees and honeybees are polylectic. While bumblebees live in colonies of a few hundred, the sheer number of honeybees in a hive – up to 50,000 in the summer - and their ability to be managed, manipulated and transported by man makes them the most valuable pollinator. /ppUnfortunately all bees are already under serious Industrialised farming with its monocultures and pesticides has destroyed biodiversity and robbed the majority of bees of their habitat and food. While across the globe, the western honeybee – bred for its gentle nature and prolific honey making and pollination – is plagued by parasites and viruses, and also jeopardised by modern agricultural practices. More than a third of honeybees were wiped out in the US this year by Colony Collapse Disorder, a mysterious disease which is thought to be a combination of these assailants./ppAs Dr George McGavin, who was batting for the bees said: "Bee populations are in freefall. A world without bees would be totally catastrophic."/ppThe Earthwatch audience should be applauded for heading his call and voting to save them, and itself as well./pp· Alison Benjamin is co-author of a href="http://www.guardianbooks.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10401_25501_128593_?cm_mmc=Guardian%20Home-_-Product%20Sell-_-Bottom%20Flash-_-A%20World%20Without%20Bees%205VJG"A World without Bees/a/pdiv style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"ullia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/wildlife"Wildlife/a/lilia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/endangeredspecies"Endangered species/a/lilia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/conservation/"Conservation/a/li/ul/divdiv class="guRssAdvert"a href="http://ads.guardian.co.uk/click.ng/richmedia=yessite=Environmentcountry=(none)spacedesc=rsssystem=rsstransactionID=1227288015027112117240433070"img src="http://ads.guardian.co.uk/image.ng/richmedia=yessite=Environmentcountry=(none)spacedesc=rsssystem=rsstransactionID=1227288015027112117240433070" border="0" //a/diva href="http://www.guardian.co.uk"guardian.co.uk/a copy; Guardian News Media Limited 2008 | Use of this content is subject to our a href="http://users.guardian.co.uk/help/article/0,,933909,00.html"Terms Conditions/a | a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/webfeeds/1,,1309488,00.html"More Feeds/a

We knew Tina Fey’s impersonations of former V-P candidate Sarah Palin helped boost the online video fortunes of NBC and Hulu, and now we know just how much of a bump each site got in October, when the election was in full swing.

According to comScore, Hulu went from 2.85 million unique visitors in September to 5.34 million uniques in October, for an 87 percent increase. NBC Universal jumped from 16 million uniques in September to almost 24.8 million uniques in October, for a 33 percent jump. Further, NBC’s online Saturday Night Live channel shot up 85 percent to 4.4 million visitors in October.

Of course, it wasn’t all Fey-lin’s doing. The Palin-Biden and Obama McCain debates were live-streamed during October as well.

The question becomes, how much of that new traffic will Hulu and NBC be able to hang onto now that the election is over?
