I think judgement day would involve an interview in 60 days when he gets a chance to investigate everything, and understand exactly what's going on.
Remember, working for a company doesn't mean you know everything, it means you know your part. Higher ups are often thought to know all below them, when it's rather impossible.
A CFO may know the bottom line, and be able to summarize quite a bit, but I bet they couldn't tell you half of what someone 2 positions under them could. They don't know all the details. What's fudged under them could be very well hidden.
A nice followup would make this a great piece. But until then, it's a little hard to critique this all fairly.
Sounds like a decent offer for artists. Their service sounds rather good, and it's a decent offer (3 songs for free). And unlike P2P, it provides promotion capabilties essentially allowing people to keep track of a band they are interested in.
P2P is just hosting. People still need to find it, and figure out where to find more about the band.
This looks like a decent service. I could see some small bands with websites linking to their page on the service. A good way to organize your bands online promotional info and let fans keep up to date.
I'd personally rotate the songs every so often (if they allow that, which I think they do). Let people keep coming back to hear new songs.
Just my $0.02. It looks like a decent site. I hope some bands will make good use of it.
HP's got some really cheap (sub $2000) rackmountable hardware available, with decent specs. They are intel based, so could run Linux, Solaris x86, or if you must W2k, W2k3.

Most scam websites, child pornography websites will use bogus whois info.
If we ensure it's all accurate, we are holding webmasters, ISP's accountable for the crap on the web.
It's a great step towards removing the garbage that scares so many from the internet.
If every webmaster's address was listed in WHOIS accurately. How many scam websites would be set up? How many would setup child pornography websites and list their own address as the contact?
If they are that stupid, at least it becomes that much easier to catch.
I see no reason why they shouldn't go about it. It's good for the Internet as a whole.
They make a handle, so it's easy to carry with you to to the bathroom to "freshen up".:-D
Sorry, couldn't resist. But seriously. What is that about? I can't remember ever moving any printer of mine since the date of purchase. Only move them to the trash when they brake, or get replaced.
I've always been a fan of a one strike rule for drunk driving, as some other nations are implementing.
Since it's never an accident (you intentionally drink, hence accept the responsibility for your actions). Do it once, and you can no longer have a drivers license.
A simple solution that doesn't burdon the rest of the population who knows how to avoid a car when they are drunk.
No reason why a few idiots who enjoy driving drunk should ruin it for everyone. I know people who do it for the challenge. See how much they can drink and safely drive home with. Bragging rights.
There's really no legitimate reason to need to drink and drive. Perhaps an exception in the courts for an absolute emergency (to be judged in a court of law). Though 911 tends to bring mobile help to you... But other than that.... you do it, you consiously chose to give up your right to drive.
Right away, that would be the end of drunk driving.
It's not like you have to drive after drinking. Alcohol comes in portable easy to carry containers so you can take it to a location where driving after is not needed (such as your home). It also makes it very easy to fall asleep at the location of consumption;-).
There's really no legitimate reason to ever drive drunk. So why do we have the world's weakest laws for drunk driving?
Lets make it a one strike rule. That way those who are responsible don't have any problems. And those who are out to ruin the party... ruin their own lives.
I'm not fan of this Interlock bill, though I support the idea behind it.
IMHO if your an a hazard, lets remove you from society. If your so stupid that you are willing to endanger lives... what if your a doctor by trade? Do I want a doctor with that quality of judgement being responsible for my wellbeing? I think not.
Lets not ruin the party for everyone. But lets make sure people who try to ruin the party, never get a second chance.
It's already so similar, stable, and well done, it's worthwhile to invest. Here's what I see it needing:
- Good Mac OS X port (get Apple on it's side) - Some UI polish, needs graphics, UI cleanup, streamlining - Slight improvements to compatibility with MS Office, especially Power Point.
It's already a pretty solid product. It's got some great bonuses (free PDF output for example). What it needs is some cleanup.
IBM could easily provide this. Then have an MS free product that could help bring Linux to the desktop.
Apple would be wise to invest in this as well I might add. Get rid of more MS dependancy.
It's just a proxy service... look what it supports:
Supported Software: Explorer, Netscape, Kazaa, Morpheus, Freenet, Emule, Gnutella, Imesh, Shareaza, BitTorrent, Limewire, Trillian, AIM, MSN Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, IRC, WSFTP, CuteFTP, Windows Media Player and Real Player
Funny how different two companies feel about source code. Apple has somewhat embraced the open source model, contributing to KHTML, and using many other open source projects. While Microsoft has shunned them all.
Your right in a sense... pathetic when I IM my roommate;-)
But email keeps me in touch with my family in Europe. Easy way to keep in touch.
Same with friends I don't see often because of distance, or time (lack of mainly). We can IM, email and talk just as much as we always did. Without needing to coordinate zip codes.
The sitefinder service has privacy issues. From mali sent to invalid domains to people mistyping a website address.
On a sidenote, there other's who run root servers. Why don't they get a chunk of the change generated by sitefinder to defray costs, and perhaps expand and add more servers for yet more redundancy.
I'm only 20 years old.
But the first time I ever learned to program anything was an original IBM PC (dual floppy drives and a monocrome display), using BASIC
If I wanted to run serious software is was DOS 2.x.
If I wanted something more modern (and eating up all the available memory), we had 3.x.
And now, I'm still a student, but using PHP, mySQL, XUL, JS, C++, and many other acronyms.
This interview is begging for a follow up.

Each time I launched the app, norton fires up because an email is being sent.
no mention of what anywhere.
Sorry, perhaps I'm paranoid... but that's not very cool with me.
Some great no-name artists work were saved.
Good news.

We will make no distinction between the terrorists (spammers), and those who harbor them.

Nuff Said.
Remember a few years ago when that doctor carved his initials into a womans abdomen during surgery...
is that considered "Right to advertise"?
No, it's harmful, and an invasion of personal rights.

Guess how long that will take to /. the bandwidth out of?
I'm saving a mirror now, if necessary, I can mirror.
If his website was running Apache, on Linux.. that would be one thing.
But it is running IIS on Win2k appparantly.
How much you want to bet he posed it from a Linux system with Mozilla Firefox?
I mean up periscope.
Ugh.
U-571, will now be A-571.
Hmm.
How long until the virus scanner itself is hijacked and exploted?
You can't mask bad code with bad code. It's just a new product to exploit.
IMHO it's a bit of hype, but I'll wait and reserve final judgement.
Think he's going to rap about killing Steve Jobs?
Might have a new target besides his own mother.

It works for millions of Americans every year. ;-)
I bought one, and admit it was fast, loved it.
Read the article on the drives being defective, and didn't want to believe it.
Then my drive made a few clicks, but didn't crash imediately.
Turned my computer off, and ordered a new Seagate Barracuda IV. Copied data over. Never used that 75GXP to this day. Still sitting in a box.
IBM owes me. I had to get 2 HD's in a year, rather than one.
Painful Sores on genitals
Tired
Oh no, I have an STD.
No wait, just excessive wacking off while looking at the wealth of porno on the Internet.
Yep. Serious problem.
If I were IBM, I would stick to Open Office.
It's already so similar, stable, and well done, it's worthwhile to invest. Here's what I see it needing:
- Good Mac OS X port (get Apple on it's side)
- Some UI polish, needs graphics, UI cleanup, streamlining

Apple's UI experience would be good as well.

I'm sure every peidophile/childmolester/spammer/scam artist is already paying their $7 a month to get in on this.
Just use a fake credit card, and they think they are invisable (until a warrant is issued for the access logs and PayPals records).
Sounds like another kid playing with
You can see it here: here

isn't a place for Geeks to feel superior
isn't a place to find pornography
isn't a place to talk sexually to a 50 year old man sitting half naked in his studio appartment.
How does that time period resolve privacy issues?
The sitefinder service has privacy issues. From mali sent to invalid domains to people mistyping a website address.
On a sidenote, there other's who run root servers. Why don't they get a chunk of the change generated by sitefinder to defray costs, and perhaps expand and add more servers for yet more redundancy.
Your damn strait at 16hrs a day I'm not an addict.
;-) That's not really isolating. it's a different form of communication.
I think there's valid evidence to back up this new claim.
Think about how "isolated" you really are. What do most people do online:
Email
Instant Message
Forums
Read News
far from isolating activities. In fact, the goal of these activities is to prevent isolation. Be part of a community.
We email friends we don't see often (replacement for the "letter" as our ancestors called it).
We IM friends "what are you doing tonight?", "want to have cyber sex?"
Forums are a giant community messaging each other.
News is simply staying informed about activities and events of others.
That's not isolation. That's assimilation into society.
