  1. Re:Vote by SMS? on Ask Slashdot: Setting Up Wireless Voting For Students? · · Score: 2

    Same idea, different pricing plan:
    Poll Everywhere

    Polls for up to 30 votes are free, after that you've gotta pay.

  2. Good soundtrack on Low Budget Air Space Photography · · Score: 1

    I think the real story is the music:
    Hot Butter - Popcorn
    Ludovico Einaudi - Divenire
    Bedouin Soundclash - When the Night Feels My Song

  3. They forgot the most important feature... on AMBER Alert Partners With Facebook · · Score: 1

    which automatically changes the abductor's fb status to " *abductor's name* has just abducted *abductee's name* "

  4. Annual Report from 08-09 on Should Wikipedia Just Accept Ads Already? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I might've been looking at the 08-09 annual report, that's all they've got up: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Annual_Report But saying they need $16M urgently, when their expenses were only $5.6M in 08-09 seems sketchy.

  5. They've already got cash on Should Wikipedia Just Accept Ads Already? · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I thought about donating some money. I use wikipedia pretty regularly and I'd like to support it. The only problem is I don't think they need any money. Their financial statements are available and it looks like they've got enough cash on hand to run for the year without any more donations. I don't see the need to add to their cushion.

  6. Librarian of Congress? on Jailtime For Jailbreaking · · Score: 1

    How did librarians suddenly get so powerful?

  7. Re:So wont 3 Kinects make 3D video? on Combining Two Kinects To Make Better 3D Video · · Score: 1

    You can't have 6 minute abs! 3 or 4 could make for a pretty cool image all the way round. I wonder if this could be paired with CAD software and a 3D printer.

  8. Go simple on Thought-Provoking Gifts For Young Kids? · · Score: 1

    Blank paper and paint/crayons or play-doh is a great way to give a kid creative freedom.

  9. I'm suspicious on Web-Users Fall For Fake Anti-Virus Scams · · Score: 1

    I think that article might be scareware... they're just trying to make us click on the 'GetSafeOnline' link.

  10. Can you hurt yourself with it? on Iron Man Is Another Step Closer To a Reality · · Score: 1

    I wonder if it's possible to punch yourself in the face by accident...

  11. They already have us by the balls... on TSA To Make Pat-Downs More Embarrassing To Encourage Scanner Use · · Score: 1

    when we want to travel far. Now they've just got us a little more literally.

  12. Lack of innovation ain't much of a problem on Microsoft Is a Dying Consumer Brand · · Score: 1

    when your products (winsdows, office) are well entrenched in most companies and schools.
