  1. scratch an itch on Advice For Programmers Right Out of School · · Score: 0

    Most 'really cool' things that I compose are just because I am really interested in writing what ever the program is. A famous quote is that good software is made when a developer would "scratch their own itch.". As for what I lack in technical knowledge then you can never read enough. Get books on subjects you are interested in and they will reference similar authors on the subject or branches off. As your programming experience grows so will your ability to just code the ideas that you have. You will learn patterns and methods to create some of the largest of software projects.

    has to be http://www.goscreen.info/
    " GoScreen was created in 1998. Since the first time I saw (and worked with) "pager" in FVWM desktop window manager for X Windows I wanted something similar in Microsoft Windows world. The idea of how could I implement this came to me in spring of 1998, and after several weeks of experiments and intensive development goScreen 1.0 was published. I must say that FVWM gave me only initial inspiration. GoScreen has already evolved very far from that initial idea. "

  7. this is stupid on A Blackberry Pickpocket Notification System · · Score: 4, Funny

    There is already a device just as useful as this. Available in most stores as well! What is this amazing device..? A piece of string Tie end A around wrist and tie end B around black berry. Upon your precious black berry being picked pocketed it immediately starts feedback and upon getting to far from your person alerts you by a careful tug on the arm. It even stops you leaving your black berry on a desk by mistake, as soon as you start walking off your black berry will follow. All for less then the price of pen.
