Has it ever bugged you that Google doesn't want to open source their search engine, or Gmail, or any of Google's other closed source software?
No, but it annoys the hell out me they won't fix their screwed up design of Google groups 2 and that they try to prevent people from storing the login password on Gmail in Msie.

The rest of the world will have to make a new worldwide net to prevent one country from dominating it - interesting...
But are they intending to port it to new platforms?

So what's this imoral law called?

Good thing Google is slaying them!
They skip, and blink, and make noise! I'm trying to read here!
Now you've ruined everything *snob*
... you didn't say a disgruntled Serenity fan!
I don't agree with your premise. Its the program that should do it. And when it doesn't, its not one I want to use.
