  1. Re:Demand Data Portability on Who Owns Your Social Data? You Do, Sort of · · Score: 0

    What facebook group are you referring to. The link just takes me to facebook.com. We could add a YouChoose.net widget to the group that people could use to petition for openness.

  2. Tired of cybersquatting? on Is a Domain Name an Automatic Trademark? · · Score: 0

    I'm generally supportive of low-regulation, but this 'simpledog.com" person is just a cybersquatter. That might be bad enough, but then to have the balls to try to bully you into turning over your domain - well that really pisses me off. There's a petition to stop cyber-squatting that we started a while back. Maybe it's time to get some momentum behind this. http://www.youchoose.net/campaign/stop_domain_name_parking_and_cybersquatting

  3. Re:Out with a bang? on The Palm OS Ends With a Whimper · · Score: 0

    That's why they say out NOT with a bang but with a wimper!

    The customer is the best way to decide the format war. You can do it here: http://www.youchoose.net/pledge/bluray_vs_hd_dvd/f rom/takeaction

  5. Re:I'm a Brit and... on Talking CCTV to Scold Offenders in UK · · Score: 1

    Try setting up a Pledge Campaign or Petition on http://www.youchoose.net/. That's what it's for. Get people to join together to take action. Write your representatives. Get people to pledge to join in a protest at a certain time in front of all the cameras. They can select which camera they'll be at. But make it a national event. Let's face it. This IS creepy.

  6. Re:HD-DVD is failing fast on Blu-ray Disc Among Top Selling DVDs at Amazon · · Score: 1

    I'm somewhat indifferent to the high-def 'war', I'd just like to see one format win so the market can focus on it alone. This produces all the benefits of standardization, including lower prices and bigger selections as the format risk is taken out of the market for all players and consumers. So let's let the consumers decide who wins. Rather than all voting with our wallets though, which would result in about half of us losing money by buying the wrong format, I've set up a Pledge Campaign on YouChoose to force the issue. The Blu-ray vs. HD DVD war was the trigger for me coming up with the YouChoose idea in the first place. As in "YouChoose" the format that will win. So let's see if we can take this into our own hands: www.youchoose.net/pledge/bluray_vs_hd_dvd/from/mik ed You can also contact me directly through my account at YouChoose.
