  1. Re:Google Video Beta on Google Video Not Ready for Prime Time? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Oh dear crap stop this!

    If it is so beta that it just doesn't work then don't release it. So far any "beta" from Google has atleast been polished and worked well. This simply does not. And some of the issues aren't a "is it beta" or not question, like the DRM.

    So please, I love Google to, but drop the "its beta crap". They are a corporation that is taking your/my money. I want quality products. This simply isn't.

    No No, we ask if they will drink their own pee to survive the trek in this case.

  4. rename? on Yahoo Launches Dashboard · · Score: 1

    So we have a /. story about Yahoo! renaming a product? Is this really even worth posting?

    So we have a /. story about how Yahoo! renamed Konfabulator? Really, is this worth a post? This is Digg quality frontpage stuff, not /.

  6. Re:Is that so. on 10 Million Nintendo DS Units Sold Since Launch · · Score: 3, Informative

    At WiTendoFi.com we have a growing user base that is a real mix of ages. I run the site and am 24 years old. We have plent of 20+ users there (and 20- of course).

  7. Great games + innovation + easy online = owned! on 10 Million Nintendo DS Units Sold Since Launch · · Score: 1

    The DS is simply a great gaming system. It doesn't try and be everything to everyone. It just does its job wonderfully. If you are looking to find people to play on the WiFi games be sure to try out WiTenDoFi.com. It is a really great way to quickly find people to play and more.

  8. Re:Translation on Portable OpenOffice.org 2.01 Released · · Score: 1

    I can't seem to find the "Obvious" moderation. Would "Overrated" or "Offtopic" work? They start with "O" you know...

  9. Re:Asinine on Motorola Unveils iRadio · · Score: 1

    I personally really like my Motoral v265. It has all the basic features I need. Decent battery life if you don't use the camera (which I don't). Built in speach rec so I can dial by name without teaching it names and solid reception (I live in Western Kansas, this is a REAL issue for me).

    It doesn't play mp3s. It has no preloaded games. It does the job. I don't see myself getting rid of it any time soon.

    Search on Cars - "Test drive the new Ford 150 today! Print this google ad and we'll give you a gallon of free gasoline"

    Your search algorithm sucks. The Ford 150 is a truck, not a car.

  18. Re:Data Mining on Google to Buy Opera? · · Score: 1

    So now they'll be able to track where we're going when it's not mentioned in our gmail or searched for through their search engine.

    Could be interesting.


    You do realize they are way past just tracking you in those cases right? Every pagges that loads a Google ad tells them where you are. Any site uses Analytics tells them were you are. They are WAY past just gmail and google search...way past.

    In fact...I dare you to click the link in my sig...they will track it.

  19. Re:Nintendo DS for me on Holiday Gaming Potpourri · · Score: 1

    I am not sure how you got that out of my previous statement. For this holiday season I am playing Mario Kart and Animal Crossing. Before those there are MANY games I have enjoyed on my DS. If you want a list I can name a few for you...

    Mario Kart + Animal Crossing + WiFi is all I need this holiday season.

  21. So easy on Google Adds Widgets to Homepage · · Score: 3, Informative

    This was amazingly easy. I setup a Widget at: http://witendofi.com/widgets/witendoficard.xml

    It is a Google IG version of the WiFi Cards we let users have (see grebowiec.net for an example, it is in the right sidebar).

    I had this thing working in under 10 minutes. I like. I will be expanding this. The timing was perfect, I actually started on a Konfabulator widget for this just last night!

  23. Please note... on Review of WidowPC Sting 917 Gaming Laptop · · Score: 1

    Please note that this "laptop" is NOT intended for travelling with. It is meant for taking to your friends for a LAN party or to the local Pro Gamer get together. It is probably easier to lug this thing in a Messenger Bag than an XPC + 17" LCD. So...before you say "IT IS BIGGER THAN MY DOGGGG!" please realize its purpose.
