  1. 2.6 Billion In Losses Just This Past Year on Microsoft Betting on Bing for Mobile Search · · Score: 5, Insightful

    http://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/25/business/bing-becomes-a-costly-distraction-for-microsoft-breakingviews.html

    I don't know how anyone could possibly suggest anyone would ever dream of wanting to buy Microsoft's failed search engine.

  2. Yes, It's Called Google+ on Google Wrestles With Privacy Bugs In Google+ · · Score: 1

    Let me guess...you didn't bother to read the garbage article and just read the attention grabbing bullshit headline and posted?

  3. Not Unnecessary,Just Incredibly Poorly Implemented on Facebook Announces Video Calling With Skype · · Score: 1

    All Facebook has done is bolt Skype's desktop client onto their old Facebook webpage. You actually are forced to download and install the Skype software the first time you try to video chat with someone on Facebook.

    You might as well just use the existing Skype desktop client instead of this hack.

    This desperate response from Facebook is not in the same league as Google+:

    Facebook with Skype bolted on:

    * Only 1 on 1
    * Clunky first time external software instillation

    Google+:

    * Up to ten person group chat
    * Works on any platform
    * Seamless operation - it just works. No clunky external software instillation
    * Group video/youtube watching sessions

  4. 500,000 New Android Devices A Day on Another Android Device Maker Signs Patent Agreement With Microsoft · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The fact that the entire mobile developer world is now doing Android IS the reason Microsoft has been reduced to this humiliating desperation.
