Yesterday I watch a "cyber-TV-program" on US TV. They showed a "cool
screensaver" that was continuously displaying new stock quotes it was
getting over the net. And another screensaver that displayed video
pictures of the Olympic Games.
What worries me here is that people are developing applications that
use (lots of) bandwidth, even when people are not even using their
computers.
