I use Desktop Search at least every day. The email search indexing is wonderful and light years faster than native Outlook. It's great for those client requests "hey remember that email I sent you three months ago."
Just remember you're dealing with some 18 year old staffer with a poly-sci degree where IM is the extent of his/her computing capacity. You gotta mention "I oppose" quite a lot.... the alternative is you can always call Sen. Hatch up: 202-224-5251
While I am a strong supporter of IP rights this bill scares me the most by establishing a blanket effect over P2P development. This bill has the possiblity to be as disruptive as the DMCA.
I think AdAge is off with this article since most "other brand" systems are using one of the original networks (Tivo,UltimateTV,etc)
My question to/. users is do you think that the ReplayTV (which has a lot of advanced features and is definitely more oriented at this crowd) has a fighting chance in the PVR market? Or do you think there will be a Tivo monopoly?
When I got my Georgia drivers license ab out 5 years ago I had to have my thumbprint encoded on the back of the card.
I think this is a good thing, it's not like the government has planted a tracking device in it. If anything it has the potential to reduce identity theft, which is a big problem in the US

U.S. consumers hurt from the FCC's restrictions on Digital TV.
...Korean engineers released a report that should be of substantial concern to American television viewers.

That's exactly what microsoft could do, especially with their new release of XP is automatically secure the firewall, don't allow any ports in. Any program wishing to use a port would require autorization from the user. At the same time they need to make it easy for everyone to turn on certain ports as well.
The problem lies within Bell Systems using unfair practices to hinder competition in the broadband maket.
Government is big and mismanaged, do you really want them running your ISP?
If competition in the market exists you will see lower prices, better services, and outreach to new areas because businesses will have to create these systems in order to remain in the market.

56k users shouldn't hate those who have broadband. Hate the Bell Systems for practicing anti-competative tactics that restrict third party vendors (CLECs) from creating competition in broadband.

Blogs already have an option, it's called BlogAds, it works, it's very easy for advertisers to submit an ad and buy space.

Obviously you are one of them considering that sentance should have been phrased:
"There ARE a few people in here who will need to first take remedial English lessons"
