  1. Re:What never heard of iGoogle? on Yahoo Edges out Google in Customer Satisfaction · · Score: 1

    I dunno. I like iGoogle. I have all my rss feeds on it. Everytime I go to google I get all the latest news information (Including Slashdot) and weather information. Its fast and I have customized it to give me all the information I view daily.

    And it is all in one spot.

    I for one like it.

  2. Re:Excellent! on Finally We Get New Elements In HTML 5 · · Score: 1

    Thats exactly the point. Isnt this partly why xml is invented and thus we are able to use one format and use xsl style sheets to translate the xml into whatever you want.

    So why not just use xml.

    And this includes xml with tags. I dunno perhaps I will think of something useful for these tags one day when I see them, but right now it seems like people are just trying to invent something new just because.

    Ok Perhaps audio and video are in the right direction and maybe time, but any page that is dynamically displayed either by code or whatever (which is almost every page I visit) will not need to use alot of these tags.

    And even if they are static, you can produce probably all the same results using css classes.

  3. Monkeys Uncle on Monkeys and Humans Learn the Same Way · · Score: 1

    Well I'll be a Monkeys Uncle. This is news is bannanas.

  4. The Wii is fun for everyone on Mainstream Audience 'Noticing' Games Again · · Score: 1

    Well after giving up trying to get my wife to play with me on the playstation/xbox360, this thing called the wii seemed to appear.
    We borrowed a friends Wii to play and next thing you know the whole family is playing, Grandma, my 4 year old daughter, and yes my wife who never plays video games.

    For me the wii has become a social game where you can socialize with a whole group of people while playing together.

    But on the other hand when I want to relax and take it easy I turn on the playstation/xbox and get into some cool graphics and hardcore game that will take weeks to complete.

    The wii has brought a new type of gaming into the industry and at this point it is like comparing apples to oranges or monopoly to checkers. I welcome this new gameing trend and I cannot wait to see how the technology develops. But i will never use it for a replacement for my xbox 360 or playstation.

  5. Cameras in cell phones on Canadian Theatre Chain Sued for Abusive Search · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I wonder what they are gonna do when cell phones and similar devices are able to take hi quality video?

    PLEASE LEAVE YOUR BAG AT THE DOOR. (It will cost extra of course)

  6. Paying for advertisements on For-Pay Demos Coming to Xbox Live? · · Score: 1

    Remember when you paid to go to a movie and you sat down and the movie started instead of having to watch 20 min of advertisements. Or you bought a video and when you played it the movie just started instead of having to fast-forward it 10 min to get past all the advertising.

    It seems like this is starting to be a trend. Just look at some of the magazines out there. They are like 15% content and 85% advertising.

    Looks like MS is trying to pull off the exact same thing.
