Because this doesn't require you to either create a PNG file for each title you want and/or use a server-side script to try and dynamically generate the PNG. sIFR takes whatever text already exists and feeds that to a flash file that will format that text (size it up to fit, link it up, etc.) as needed.
sIFR has been around for ages now! Why is it only just making it onto here and being touted as "finally" being here? (That is, if this isn't a dupe from something months ago).
If you are talking about ASP and you're not running Windows, then you'll probably need something like ChillISoft ASP. It's old, not free, but that's the price you pay for using legacy technologies on unsupported systems.
If you're talking about ASP.NET, then you're looking for mono. I'd suggest you go to http://www.go-mono.net/ and read the documentation there or even use Google. There's more than enough information there to guide you through setup and mailing-lists for these kinds of questions.
Slashdot's mods approve questions like this (unclear, unstructured, and could be solved with Google), yet reject perfectly good questions that might be of interest to other people.
A student did this once at my old school in order to catch passwords or something. But the logger didn't start until after a user logged in (thanks to his smart installation abilities) and wasn't even on the machines that the teachers used.
You mean their ?/2% discount? All you really have to do is just login to the site using your Amazon account and you'll save a couple of bucks for quite some-time on your Amazon purchases.
Or since most of the consultants brought in would probably be MCSE's (or equivalent), they now have more power to grab a bigger pay-cheque from those companies with huge upgrade and maintenance costs.
I don't know about over there, but down here, there aren't really any port restrictions over GPRS. We were able to boot up Kazaa and get leeching (of course, it nearly killed everyone else's connection at the same time).
This would be useful if say eBay and a sportscard trading forum were both on Passport; you could see the eBay feedbacks of someone else on the trading forum and be assured it was actually them. Because the accounts were free and could be tied to free email accounts, this tracking wasn't a foolproof way to track people on the web, either.
No they couldn't (unless both sites were owned by eBay). The user-data that eBay stored would be totally separate from the Passport servers (and the trading forum). The privacy policy was very strict about transfer of user-data between Microsoft and the sites, inter-site data wasn't even thought of.

How is that different than using JavaScript to put together a bunch of PNG images (one per letter) for each title?
Because then you can't control kerning, leading (with more than one line), ligatures, size or anything to keep it from looking like absolute crap.

2pi then, damn you encoding!
If these guys were REAL engineers it'd be the XBOX 2?.

At least we'll give that site a good slashdotting.
Prime target for the penguin.

So, slashdot is now stooping to linking to server monitor pages?
Well, it is possible they changed the ID string reported by the Apache server
Of course they did! Nobody would DARE run a server on anything but Linux.
There are only so many flat tires and sick aunts one can come up with for missing a couple of hours of work.
Just be sure you keep track of them, when you're on your 8th dead grandparent, people start getting suspicious.
It's been up less than 5 minutes and it's already inaccessible. What's the record?

The only issue with PDF is the tendancy to be one-way. But there are programs out there designed to convert PDF documents to other formats.

I use a web browser.
Just take a look at where the "How do I become a .NET Passport site" link goes...
Maybe if they would have called WebId or something more descriptive it might have caught on.
Because that would have made it seem even less secure.
They will be back. They have the time and the funds to punt on this..
Just like Microsoft Bob... they weren't done torturing the consumer when the Microsoft Office Assistant asked that infamous question.
