Al Gore is just an environmentalist and a politician. In terms of delivering facts about climate change, he's not relevant. I'm not quite sure why he does so much speaking about it
might be worth a VMWare install... I've been using VirtualBox on my Linux system for just that purpose - testing IE compatability where it's a necessity (and it's always unpleasant)
But that's the point - those ads are already mostly centrally hosted - i.e they were already using a few common sources - now the code libraries have a common source.
Because the hundred other pages the visitor went to that session is also demanding their own copy of the library be downloaded. It's not your bandwidth this saves (only trivially it is) - it's the end user's download, and parse, of the same code for each of the dozen sites he visits that use the same library. The libraries Google has initially chosen are extremely popular - i.e. there are good odds that you have a dozen copies in your browser cache right now - each download of which made your browsing experience that much slower.
Comcast does not have common carrier status, nor do they want it.
Then it's an excellent opportunity then for some do gooder to bring a class action against them for not actively preventing access to illegal content - think of the children.
There's no guarantee users will like the unplugged versions of cloud apps.
Having to use a plugged, especially plugged-only and "internet as an afterthought", application is akin to having to drive down to the theater to watch a movie - sure the big screen is nice, but putting up with all the downsides is less and less attractive and the screens are getting smaller and the popcorn is getting more and more stale.
Meanwhile, using an app that easily unplugs is like having my favorite movies available anytime (that is, with an acceptable delay in feedback time) - I can watch on the (upcoming) Mitsubishi Laser TV whatever hi-def I had downloaded to the PS3, listening on the fine audio system, enjoying the whole affair with a group I can choose, and having an ice cold Becks with hot off the stove popcorn. Yeah, it's a little extra work, for now, but it's much more appealing.

You're ignoring how eqch got market share - Firefox earned theirs with, gasp, innovation (and reliability and speed and
I just ignore ads, and do so with ease. I never understood the need for an addon to do it
Gen MacArthur just ignored gunfire too - leading him to believe he could ignore elected officials - and automobile traffic.
True, but the fix is much more, ah, awesome, by being less, ah, awesome.

Do the 2.x plugins work with 3.0?
