Your Morning Reboot, high in fiber:
- Reuters reports that nine out of ten emails worldwide are spam. The United States, China and Poland are the main originators of the more than 7 billion spam messages sent this month. Remember when spam was just a funny sketch from Monty Python?
- Opera Software has announced version 3.0 of its Mini browser intended for mobile devices. The new version features enhanced photo sharing, an RSS feed reader and secure connections for mobile banking.
- The New York Times reports that YouTube will finally be going mobile next month, partnering with Verizon. Unfortunately the service will involve a $15-a-month subscription to a Verizon's VCast service and will only feature films “approved by both companies.” So more or less expect that to suck.
- Hot on the heals of the UK SlingMedia/3 partnership to stream video to cellphones comes a new company, Phling, which claims it can do the same for music and works here in the U.S. Found via Lifehacker.
- Ethernet will be speeding up to 100 gbps, which should make it up to ten times faster than the current 10-gigabit version. A study group from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) recently agreed on a target speed bump for the networking technology, but it may be several years before new products hit the market.
