So you can put adwords in their system for targeting people who looked at the map of the city of Utrecht in the Netherlands? Either today or the week before? That'be using profiling. But you can't (as far as I know) so while they may be profiling, they're not using it for advertising.
Monopolies have the tendency of make competition hard (like not starting up because DR-DOS is running, saying 'you have a stupid OS'). How would that work on the web? 404's because they chose the wrong advertising agency?
What I like about it, is that it asks your opinion about 35 topics, you start to think about them. You start discussing these topics with colleagues, family and friends.
One of these sites (there were lots) also listed the reasonings of the political parties. That shed some light into some of their answers, and gave me more to think and discuss.
I hope nobody just obeyed the websites, although I'm sure that happens. But then, people also just obey their partner, parents or friends.

Or just use the +X option for chmod, which will add execute permission for entries which already have them for other users. So in this example a+rX would save you some work.
In the Netherlands, about 23 days per year is the minimum by law. I've got 31 days, with an option to buy upto 21 extra days, or sell at most 5 days.
You're "expected" to take one big holliday of 3 weeks, but you don't have to. You just have to coordinate with your boss.
When you buy 21 days, you can work 4x9 (instead of 5x8, which is normal), or you can just do 3 vacations of 3 weeks and still take the christmas-week off.:) Most IT-jobs are less flexible, just 23 days is often what they'll give you.
I'm not in great need of having a radio-like station giving me songs I have no objections to.
What I do want is some program that suggests new music to me. Not Madonna's latest hit, I'll hear that on the radio. But if some other napster-user has 80% of the same music as I do, let me hear some of his 20% I don't have.
Firefly used to have this. You'd tell it about music you like, and it would tell you what music you might like. That was before mp3, so you had to type in your music collection, now a program that submits (anonymously) my music taste, and receives
suggestions would be great.
In fact, I started such a program. But I never got past the "reading random's people napsterlist" stage.
Maybe such things are available, but I don't know of any.

Not having a clear idea what HR-management software would do, but GNU Enterprise does enterprise thingies, so maybe it's what you're looking for?
