The U.
U. Thumbplay is the first
music subscription service to be available on the top three phone platforms in the
U. Best Buy launches its
online streaming movie service, Hotmail gets a little hotter, and thumb gloves that are meant to stop texting while on the

thumb. The price of $10
a month and an excellent autoplaylist feature could make Thumbplay a contender, as long as they work out the

the cloud-based music service as its chief technology officer, a newly created
position. Browser hopeful for the
iPhone to debut at next weeks 2010 Mobile World Congress as an alternative to
Safari. Song and ringtone e-store,
Thumbplay, announces a new music app for Windows and Mac, and apps for
BlackBerry. If all the text
on a search results page is overloading your brain, this free Firefox add-on brings relief in the form of thumbnail
previews. Authorized individuals will be
able to use USB thumb drives that are owned by the government and necessary for mission-critical functions,
U. Pingwire pulls in the
latest (and sometimes greatest) photos from TwitPic into a stream of ever-evolving
thumbnails. An interview with the
author of a travel guide for lovers of science, math, and
technology.
