    I know they will just use something else. But good, yahoo and bigfoot don't want these spammers using their servers.

  5. Paying for Services on How Long Can The Free Services Stay Free? · · Score: 2

    One thing on yahoo has done is if you want to get email for them using POP3 you have to agree to recieve advertising from them.

    Doh

    The problem with paying is not that I'm cheap, it is because it is so difficult. You have to put your credit card number in. Your address, which I'm think they will sell. Make sure you don't agree to recieve spam because of confusion check boxes.

    Would you like us not to send you daily deals!

    Maybe Yahoo has an answer with paydirect

    One thing these email services can do is charge a micropayment on sending email. Like every month yourfirst 5 emails are free but as you send more email the price goes up. But after 1000 it is 10 dollars per email. The great thing is this makes it difficult on spammers.

  6. Re:Jabber? Standard? Yeah, right... on Jabber As The Coming IM Standard? · · Score: 2

    Well if jabber got that big it would be just like email. I don't find email addresses hard to remember. But it doesn't really matter you usually just copy and paste into your contact list and forget it. Thing I hate about ICQ ID is it makes spamming easier. Just type in any number under 7000000 and you will spam someone.

    In Winjab I can give people nicknames. So I see the nickname on the contact list. I see the nickname when I chat to them. No need to remember their jabber address.

  7. Re:Jabber? Standard? Yeah, right... on Jabber As The Coming IM Standard? · · Score: 2

    I think Jabber addresses are easier to remember. I mean ICQ uses numbers so they are like 34365242523. AOL usernames get so weird. You get names like bob3436 tom353. Think those are hard to remember.

    I am using winjab one problem was I constantly got messages from ICQ and emails. I talk to them in the chat window and then their respond comes as an email. In the prefs I figured out how to make their messages come in the chat windows. Problem is when they send something to me while I am offline, I come back online and then the message come up in a chat window.

  8. Re:It's like we've regressed to the 80s! on Jabber As The Coming IM Standard? · · Score: 2

    Well the whole system is not..but I am. For example I have an address on Jabber.com. If the Jabber.com server goes down I can't communicate. If I talking to someone on jabber.org I can't talk to him if that server fails. So that makes two points of failure. I tried IMing across the two servers once and it was about a 20 sec delay to get the message to the other person. Has anyone else noticed this problem or was it a fluke?

    As opposed to Jabber where you become dependent on one server?

  13. Newshour and Frontline are great. on A Different Kind Of Digital Divide · · Score: 2

    I have watch Newshour and I must say they are the most informative news programs I have ever seen.

    The problem is they are so boring. Guess they don't care about ratings so they just report the news and don't need to sensationalise everything.

    And with nobody watching don't need to worrying about offending anybody.

    Could I find a list of words I cannot say. I mean the thing is I might not know all of them.

    I mean it is the last few months that I learned dick, pussy and cunt are swear words.

    I have never heard the word cunt in my life.

    I used to say pussy in elementary school

    "You're a pussy"

    "No I am not, you're a pussy"

    "I know what it means, you don't know what it means"

    "I do too"

    "do not"

    Of course I know what the word means now. Really I do.

    Dick? People are named Dick there is a movie named Dick. We had a Dick for president. The current vice-president is a Dick. This is a censored word?
