What's powering most Web 2.0 companies isn't technology: it's psychology. How people perceive your web site, and the minute differences in using it compared to the competitors.
No, seriously. Name any recent web company and the innovation wasn't technology or business model, but psychology and marketing.
Take blogs. A blog is really a forum with the first post being made prominent. And a forum is Usenet, which are BBS systems, which are... Or you could look at it as blogs being narrowed personal web pages, e.g. Angelfire and GeoCities from back in the day.
So even though they're the same as what came before it, they boomed and busted.
Sorry, no. There are a certain number of things you need to learn, whether you are inclined to or not, and very few high school aged kids are mature enough to fully prosper in that kind of environment. Such as what?
Student choice is good, but not on such a narrow path. A better idea would be to setup classrooms or areas of the school where certain things are learnt. Every day, students come in and simply wander to whatever area they want. Maybe today computers, next week business, the month after art. Put them completely in control of their education.
They do not, afaik, make a personal gain. But even if they did, why is that so bad - they put in a lot of work and time on this site. Their motives are, and always have been, to fight the copyright system. Because then they're even worse than the record and movie companies. At least those companies do give something back, whereas The Pirate Bay is purely lining their own pockets on the backs of others.
When they start complaining about the government "competing" with private enterprise, just remember that Ohio will be competing with private network service providers in the same way that the U.S. DoD competes with Boeing in jet fighters -- as in, they won't, they'll be customers. There's a huge difference: The DoD doesn't sell jet fighters. Ohio is selling broadband.
The people in the top-teir of the bubble 1.0 were making money also. That's why they're still around (Amazon, eBay, etc).
The startups still aren't making money, they still don't have business plans, they're exactly like they were in the bubble 1.0 days. Only now, instead of an IPO, you wait until Google buys you.
There's no reason you can't go to the mans website, download the code, and then compile it into the kernel. However, including it in the kernel by default, even as an option, means that it must be maintained and cared for.
The limit to games on Linux is market share. Is this really true? Most major games are written using pre-made engines like Unreal, which typically are cross-platform. If they're hand-rolling an engine, making it cross-platform is rather easy compared to, say, a UI application. Games don't exactly use a lot of platform-specific coding technicals.
I'm no artist -- In fact, I can barely sign my name -- but I do think 3D artists work for free, just not on games. Instead, they tend to focus on high-polygon renders of things, like cars. They want something that is fun and challenging, just like open source programmers. Low-polygon video game characters aren't going to cut it.
All you have to do is try to view a directory in a browser. If you get an index, you know it's on. If not, you know it's off or there's an index file. Examples: http://www.foxnews.com/story/ and http://www.foxnews.com/i/.
Seriously, though, that's the form you should be using for passwords, especially critical ones or ones that are public-facing. Get yourself a good password manager (TealSafe, SplashID) and just keep generating new passwords for all your systems. I think it's a moot point. Here, the password wasn't the failure. It could have been d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e and it wouldn't have made a difference.
And exactly what does "Facebook Office," or "Facebook Paint," or "Facebook Start Menu" have to do with a social network, which is all that Facebook is?
I mean, as long as we're imagining, lets imagine a world-wide wireless mesh Interweb. Think of it as a series of wireless tubes.

Sounds like you might be talking about EPIC

Add a 500GB hard drive, NVIDIA GeForce 8800, 5.1 channel speaker system, and use it as your gaming machine!
PC/104 SBC boards are usually fanless and about the same size. Only the procesors on PC/104 boards tend to be underpowered. Example
Global warming is the liberal version of the war on terror: Something Democrats use to pass legislation and scare people into voting.
Yeah, 'cause there's just SUCH a business opportunity in space... Wait, no there isn't!
Not really, no.
I think "harder access to music = more piracy."
Can you say "Edward R. Murrow award?"
Does the coffin come with a free lifetime warranty?
There was also an ad-supported text pager that I believe went belly-up.

Good thing we're talking about logging into the private FTP site, not wandering around the public website.
Just because you find the key to my car lying on the street doesn't mean you can go for a joy ride.

Does that mean I'm going to be charged?
