  EarthLink SIPshare: SIP-based P2P Content Sharing Prototype
EarthLink wants to point the way and aid the cause of these new applications by demonstrating in open source working code that SIP can host poweful applications beyond those that immediately come to mind, that is, voice and video.
EarthLink SIPshare demonstrates that it is conceivable that voice over IP, where voice is just content of a different form, itself can be implemented using SIP in a fully standards-based P2P network.
EarthLink SIPshare is a prototype, meant to be extended by the community or used casually for instructional and evaluation purposes.

 USATODAY.com - Philly, Earthlink Wi-Fi deal to pay for computers, training   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
PHILADELPHIA —; Philadelphia Mayor John Street said Wednesday that the city has signed agreements with Earthlink to own, build and operate a high-speed wireless Internet network, with initial deployment starting in the summer and to be completed in early 2007.
Earthlink also will provide free Wi-Fi hotspots at 22 locations around Philadelphia and give the city government 3,000 free or discounted Wi-Fi accounts and 700 lower-priced T-1 accounts.
If Earthlink will own the network, he believes the effort bypasses a state law that bars cities from offering broadband services unless the local phone company first turns down the privilege.

 ITworld.com - AOL spam filters block e-mail from EarthLink and others
Atlanta-based EarthLink estimates that 100,000 to 150,000 e-mails sent by its customers to users of AOL were blocked daily, for approximately 10 days.
AOL and EarthLink officials were uncertain when the problem began because the antispam software doesn't bounce back messages, but instead sends them to what Baker called a "bottomless bucket." Therefore, users may not have known and still may not know that their messages hadn't been delivered.
EarthLink doesn't have a higher-than-average incidence of spammers "spoofing" or disguising their e-mail addresses with an earthlink.net domain, Baker said.
