Walt Mossberg – For iPad and Mobile Devices, a “Port” out of the Norm
For all its might, the World Wide Web is still limited to, well, our world. But that’s quickly changing with the advent of an “interplanetary internet” that planners say will revolutionize space communication. The Disruption Tolerant Networking (DTN) system, which entered another phase of testing this week, will allow astronauts to Google from the moon or tweet their observations from space.
This is a section of the AllThingsD Web site featuring posts that have been curated from around the Web: pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Five posts are included here each weekday, but only the headline and the first two sentences. We link to the original site for the rest. The section is explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that content comes “from other Web sites.”
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions. Voices is edited by Beth Callaghan.
