COMMENTARY
Unnecessary hoopla
It's time the tragicomic feast known as the Thessaloniki International Fair (TIF) came to an end. The event mars the government's image and, at the same time, exposes the hypocrisy and subservience of the state-dependent establishment that uses it as a photo-op.
EDITORIAL
Graft puts brakes on fast Internet
It is usually said that a half truth is no better than a lie. OTE's charges for fast Internet connection are no exception. Upon the first reading, the announcement by the former state telecommunications monopoly that it is going to reduce fixed charges for access to broad-band connections by 20 to 49 percent is wonderful news to Internet users as it heralds cheaper and faster access to the World Wide Web.
