See what I did with that title there? SILK is the super wideband audio technology that comes built in to the latest versions of Skype (Windows 4.1 / Mac 2.8) and offers much improved stereo audio call quality.

The Freetalk Everyman headset only costs around £19 ($30) and not only offers quality calls but comes with a converter plug that lets you listen to music on your portable music player as well as plug in to your PC via USB.

Posted by Jeff as Editorial, Google, Software Features, VoIP

While not very uncommon in the Google universe where products and services are in a perpetual state of beta, Google Talk sticks out like a sore thumb in contrast to the adoption and improvements other products have seen, such as Gmail (where frankly, the only thing missing is IMAP support and I'll be a happy boy) and Google, the one search service to rule them all in the Web 2.0 world, that not so long ago implemented "integrated search results" where links, images and video all appear in the same search results page without having to go to Google Image Search and Google Video separately.

Posted by Geezer as Gadgets, Gaming, Science, VoIP

In video game news, it looks like Nintendo's Wiimote gets a little confused under certain lighting. But that's ok, because the Wii is primed to be priced under $220 (we think it will price at $199). That's 1/3 the price of Sony's Behemoth. Wii, Wii, Wii, all the gaming news is about Wii. Wii? Not sure, but here's more: Speculation is rampant that the Wiimote will include a microphone and VoIP support. That would be a very nice touch (no pun intended). In science news, it turns out that the Hugh Hefner myth is false: Men Have a Biological Clock Too! Speaking of reproduction, a new study shows that ...
