Im sure they think this is a good idea over at the penny-pinching coke factory. But how will they like it when i kick a machine over and trach it because it wanted 5 dollard for a coke? *Side note: it gets to be 128 degrees farenhiet where i live, that would suck*
The price sounds a little steep to me, but I bet it is worth it. You could network your computer to your neighbors and charge them to get on the internet to help pay fot it. I wish the little town I live in had something like that. We JUST got cable modems, and it isn't even a full duplex cable modem. The modem only recieves the data, a phone modem sends data. So i guess the price isnt too bad considering the slower alternatives.
Yes, it is censorship, I agree. But don't you think they have a right to excluse what they want from their engine? It is theirs after all. I see it as not a big deal. Even though they are technically censoring, they do it for a reason. Competition, they dont want you to go to another search engine, they want you to stay in theirs. It would be like the Cocoa Cola company including coupons in every 6 pack of Coke that give you a free Pepsi. They dont want you to have Pepsi, they want you to drink coke, its the same idea. It's all about competition.
You are all worked up that you cant find Yahoo in Excite and vise versa with all the serch engines. I ask this, whats the big deal? If you are typing "Yahoo" in Exite your plain slow, just type "WWW.Yahoo.Com" in your adress bar. The URL is self named, that applies to all the search engines. "WWW.Excite.Com" If you know where your trying to go, just type it in the adress bar.
