    Perhaps in the near future it will be repurposed to filter out the stupid. I, for one, would blow Bill Gates if he could just do this and kill Twitter.

    What do you call 1 million censored tweets?

    A good start!

    This would greatly affect all 3 users of this Zune thing.

  7. And then there were nine by ColdWetDog · · Score: 4, Funny

    I'll tell you who cares, all 9 Zune users, that's who cares!

    A couple of posts before, there were THREE Zune users. Now there are nine? It's popularity has tripled in a matter of hours?

    Somebody go wake up Balmer.
