What is next, banning Googling the name of a candidate/employee?
I think that the Internet is just a means to an end. The people were angry and ready to revolt. Lots of revolutions (Soviet Union dismantling, American Revolution...) happened without the Internet present. When people are angry enough word gets out.
Over SCO’s objection, the district court allowed Novell to show the jury a slide
containing a quote from a BusinessWeek article referring to SCO as “The Most Hated
Company in Tech.” (R. Vol. VIII at 2815; R. Vol. XIV at 5091).
I am a huge fan of open source and Free Software but beyond some higher profile projects (Kernel, KDE, Python...) it is hard to rally people to work for free. For every open source success there are ten projects that just die from inertia / lack of interest.
The Orkut is used primarily in India and South America while the new tool is targeted to Europe and North America. But I cannot see Google maintaining two separate yet identical services for very long.
Mark my words, this will kill the economy, just like ATMs did.
ATM's became popular because for simple transactions it is quicker to go through a machine then to talk to a real person. For complex sales interactions I cannot see some computer trying to guess what I am thinking replacing a real live sales person / engineer. The process for finding solutions that are right for my situation is too complex.
I've used GoDaddy for many years but have started to shy away from them recently due to the girls being just a little over the top for a professional business
And those commercials with the elderly lady doing a strip tease did not do anything for me.
I dont see how, google is not the only email web client solution on the net and no one is forced to use it (and honestly I dont see the appeal, its clunky IMO)
No one was forced to use Microsoft but their product was so common that the judge determined that them encouraging customers to use another one of their products was illegal. I guess the call here is determining if Google is a monopoly on the search business.
I wonder if that message is marked as important because you read the other message from Google (the Welcome message)? I can only assume that messages are marked important / non-important based on your reading habits and with so little to go on maybe that is all it takes for GMail to consider the message "Important"?
It makes sense. If you can play offline poker in a state, then I see no reason why online poker should be any different.
I guess the difference is who gets the taxation revenues. The politicians in State A hate to think of their citizens gambling in an online casino that funds State B.
It's been widely known for a long time that Io is volcanically active. I remember reading about it in a kids' astronomy book in the 1970's.
People have known for a long time that Io has volcanic activity but no one new before now that Io has a sub-surface made entirely of magma.
The main theory of how the planet Earth evolved was that the land was formed from a magma sub-surface that cooled and gave us what we have today. Ergo Io may be a window into the Earth's development.
In a similar vein TestComplete from AutomatedQA is another tool that provides a similar experience. There are several different available languages (VB, Delphi,...) and they provide a wide range of methods from a simple Record/Play to coding.
Also VMware is another tool good for setting up multiple "clean" systems for testing.
Apple's supplier code of conduct demands that employees are treated with respect and dignity, but its own audit reports suggest suppliers in China may not meet up to these standards.
The global high-tech product manufacturer made profits of $6billion ni the first quarter of 2011.
Then I guess they need to go after the users sharing the copyrighted materials not everyone who is using the service. When a bank robber drives to the bank he is going to stick up no one suggests banning driving or suing the road designer; how is this any different?
:But then what kind of asshole calls to have their DSL installed in the middle of a snowy winter?
WTF? Would you rather have no internet until the spring thaw? If you offer a service that is "24 hour" then you have to support it in all kinds of weather. That is not being an asshole but being a customer.

1) Find a an exploitable employee
2) Seduce them with hopes of seeing their child again this century
3) Collect incriminating evidence
4) Profit!
FWIW he wasn't trying to profit. The article explicitly says that he was trying to contact his son and estranged wife.

Stanford prison experiment
Because by flying the "We are protecting the children" flag they can be immune it criticism. Anyone who opposes is a supported of child porn.
Just like any one who opposes the massive privacy breaches in the USA is in support of the terrorists.

I believe that there should be a free version for peronal use
There is one here.

This is why I will never buy an Apple product.
I'm not buying a tablet until it can run MS-DOS and Lotus 1-2-3. Period.
Let me know how that works out for you...

So people who use ebooks are normal people just like you and me. Who'd have thunk?

brb, going to text my friends during their finals
You mean your former friends?
