Some sort of auto-categorizer, which compares the contents of your bookmarks to each other and automatically organizes bookmarks according to most frequent word or phrase or concept. User input would be by what factor to make the tree deep or shallow.
I've searched for something like this but have only come up with a dissertation on the subject with a stone age non-available implementation for some old version of Unix. Naive Bayes is not really going to work unless you want to hand categorize many documents beforehand to train it on. I've also tried (ingeniously!) to use Google to determine the "category" of the link, and then reverse-mapping each bookmark into categories. This unfortunately won't work with links Google has not heard of and has no category for.
Finally I just gave up, and now I just keep my links in a searchable blog.:( Teh suck.
MS is trying to grab the theater so that when on-demand online movie broadcasting (I forget if there is a more specific term...the theaters will just not have to keep the data, it will be pumped to them on demand) comes to theaters, they are all in place to charge fees and licenses and have lock-in.

"Only poor programmers who try to implement their whole program in the event handler ever have a problem with SWING."
First off, "SWING" is not an acronym. It's "Swing", or "JFC". Secondly, since Swing is NOT THREADSAFE it is already mandatory to implement any code that touches the UI in the event handler. What. You didn't know that? Most developers don't. It is awful and stupid, and I suspect it was done for performance reasons (which begs the question, if the majority of apps *are not* written this way, why do they appear to work fine?).
I like the idea of Swing. I like the APIs on the edge. But everything inside is a bloated sandwich of layers of cruft. In Swing, hard things are easier than in other toolkits, but *easy* things are often very cumbersome to implement (no, I do not want to implement an entire data model just for a drop-down list thank you!).
I like Swing in general, but it could certainly use some speedups and tweaks. In general I think the problem with Java is not so much that it is "slow" but that it is a memory pig (sorry to say), and that has a tendency to reveal itself in performance (i'm not sure much can be done by this...Moore's law will probably solve it faster than more code).
News isn't about creating the image you are looking for. It is about capturing the image that IS. If you missed the shot it's tough luck and your art should go in some "war impressions" art section or something, because it is no longer real.
not sure if this counts...but I have a bunch of RJ45, that if you hold it at a certain (unknown) angle, it just starts dropping packets. damn i spent a lot of hours chasing down TCP/IP configurations, just to finally realize that it would work according to how I nudged the cord...
Oh yeah, and our answering machine speaker sometimes starts "clicking" randomly (I guess it's just interference from somewhere)...and taking phantom messages from nobody...
I kept the zaurus on 192.168.129.x network, and added the route. Other machines on my lan could talk to the zaurus and vice versa, however, the zaurus could not get out. Packets for the internet would correctly travel over 192.168.129.1, to 192.168.0.2 (w2k nic) to the router, but nothing would come back, even after adding static routes to my router and setting the netmask to 255.255.0.0.
So then I put the Zaurus on the same 192.168.0.x net...the USB connection was 192.168.0.10 and the Z was 192.168.0.20. I added a route to w2k so it could get to 192.168.0.20 through the usb connection at 192.168.0.10. However, my Zaurus connect see the local network at all now. So I'm at a loss what to do.
What did your static route and setup on your nat/router look like?
You are not accounting for momentum and entrenchment. Sun has to be absolutely amazingly better to lure people away from perhaps a mediocre, but working-right-now solution. It's always been this way, which is sort of unfortunate. (I don't want to bash Xft2 folks, I'm just saying that superiority does not always win the day in technology)
Man, PHP5 is looking suspiciously like Java/JSP... so besides the API differences, and the lack of equivalent ability of servlets, i'm wondering where PHP is going... I admit two benefits are "less configuration" and "better memory usage" (although the latter may well not hold with all these OO features being added)...
Ok, this url (http://www.wown.info/j_helmig/w2kprout.htm) shows how to enable routing. I *think* it is working (I see the blinkenlights in the taskbar), but I don't think packets are coming back from the nat/router...
Internet Access
I'm behind a NAT firewall, here's what I did to surf the Web on the Zaurus (it comes with Opera)
adjust the registry on my Win2000 box to enable IP routing adjust the IPTables rules on my firewall to permit 192.168.129.0/24 outbound added a static route to the 192.168.129.0/24 network via my Windows2000 computer's Ethernet network IP address
ssh into the Zaurus route add -net 0.0.0.0/0 gw 192.168.129.1 adjust/etc/resolv.conf to use a nameserver of your choice
Try surfing on the Zaurus. Don't take it out of the cradle, you'll lose your connection - do it via your SSH shell.
Can somebody please elaborate on this. I would like to do the same but have read docs that say that "Internet Connection Sharing" doesn't work right, and I'd rather just not use it.
Are there step by step instructions for what to edit in the registry and how to add the routes to W2K?
Then maybe they should just sell their printers for more, and market standardization as a "feature". Unless of course they want to force people to upgrade printers whenever they feel like...no that's couldn't be it...
(Ok, I can't help it, "Nutty Nuggets" is an off-brand Grape Nuts in my local supermarket and it makes me laugh every time I pass it. Combined with grits, I suppose it would be "Gritty Nuggets!".

Just plug the orb into any standard power outlet and it is up and running on a nationwide wireless network - no internet connection required.
Ok, I thought this was a nifty piece of hardware that you could just hook to a PC and program. WTF is this about a "wireless network"?? Is there no plug in this thing?
1) serve their ads off a seperate subdomain 2) if they don't, are these really the sites you want to be visiting anyway? (JoeBob's Technology News and Ad Banners!)
I agree, while the "hosts" file is primitively useful, I would like to see a "websites" file, which you can transparently map any URL to any other URL, sort of like Apache rewrite, but in a local library that can be used by the browser. In fact, any URI at all (maybe you'd want to do this for mailto: URIs? or FTP://?).
Then again, if it's good from the modem to the ISP, it's good from the ISP outwards (to the backbone, and eventually destination servr) right? Adding this "smart caching" into various protocols (ok, either that or adding a special proxy on each machine for each protocol) could probably go a long way to reducing traffic. Especially since most documents are mostly static (hell, even frequently downloaded MP3z and Warez could be cached).

had to click an obscure checkbox on the static route in my router config argh!
Yes, I did that.
I kept the zaurus on 192.168.129.x network, and added the route. Other machines on my lan could talk to the zaurus and vice versa, however, the zaurus could not get out. Packets for the internet would correctly travel over 192.168.129.1, to 192.168.0.2 (w2k nic) to the router, but nothing would come back, even after adding static routes to my router and setting the netmask to 255.255.0.0.
