Free whitepaper – Hands on with Hyper-V 3.0 and virtual machine movement

Web currency beenz.com has teamed up with iCanBuy.com to let teenagers exchange their beenz for cash. iCanBuy acts as a digital wallet for kids and is billed as a family-centred service that helps teenagers learn to manage their money on the Web. Parents who earn beenz as they visit various Web sites can set up an online debit account at iCanBuy for their kids. Children are then free to take part in a "safe ecommerce" environment purchasing items from carefully selected sites. ® Daily Net finance news from The Register
