    IIRC, WinFS will support a file existing in multiple locations or folders.

    There's more here, but it's not too detailed. It seems they're assigning folders to files rather than storing files in a folder-like hierarchy.

    This is similar to the storing your emails in folders (like in Hotmail, Yahoo, etc.) vs labeling your emails (Gmail).

    Actually, this Slashdot article is kinda useless. If you read the article, it says the professor dropped the case and is not negotiating changes to the site with the professor to improve it. Part of the enhancements is a system in which users can flag reviews for deletetion, upon volunteers can then check it and permanently remove it.

    According to Dylan Greene's blog, THE LAWSUIT HAS BEEN DROPPED

    TeacherReviews.com is coming back, and it's going to be better than ever - for both students and professors.

    The professor who threatened a lawsuit has decided to drop the case. This happened after we talked about the situation, the site as it is today, and the intent of the site, which has always been to help students, as opposed to insult professors. This professor is now helping the site by providing feedback to the new features from a professor's point of view, which is something I have not looked into before.

  8. Article lists wrong reason for shutdown by YrWrstNtmr · · Score: 3, Informative · on TeacherReviews.com Forced Offline

    The site was taken down because a professor complained about comments made against him, and threatened to sue.

    No. The site was taken down because the site owner caved (temporarily) in the face of a potential lawsuit. There was no legal decision, no jackbooted thugs at the door, no massive DoS attack, no trashing the First Amendment.

    The site owner took it down himself. And it appears it will be coming back online, with some form of moderation.

    Somewhat ironic timing on the information from a week ago, as today's blog entry is that the site is being completely rewritten with some changes to address these concerns and will be back up soon.

    How about a pocket-sized MP3 player that can also record some of the better radio shows and allow me to pauses and fast forward through commercials?

    I found the Pogo Radio MyWay to do this. I haven't seen any other mp3 player that can do it.
