I own a playbook. I like the hardware, I like the OS and I like RIM's apps. What I found lacking was the app world and the third party apps. That is a management failure. I think the Tech part of BB10 was cool enough to succeed.
Plus they killed developer's interest in releasing free software by allowing no ads. The Android market place remained much more attractive for the developers in spite of Playbook/BB10 having an arguably better development environment. Heck they did not even manage to get the developers to repackage their apps for the playbook android emulator. There was no incentive for them.
This should spell the end of Microsoft Windows usage in sensitive government facilities for sure. Even friendly countries will be wary of US government's power over Microsoft. They should/would prefer open source code which they can audit.
Even if FreeBSD just manages to keep up with Linux I for one am glad its around. Remember Open Source is about choice. BSDs provide one more. One that is far better than Hurd, Haiku etc. at the moment.

I have used OpenDNS. I agree it is faster and I prefer that to my local ISP's dns servers. But the NXDOMAIN thingy is not so easy for me to turn off since I have a dynamic ip. I started using 4.2.2.2 as primary because of that. Yesterday I changed to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. Hopefully I don't have to change this for a long time now.
My thoughts exactly. They probably developed a new algorithm for finding the best results. There is no need for a new crawler.
Found this link on search engine architecture which is helpful. http://infolab.stanford.edu/~backrub/google.html
So according to you governments should concentrate on one thing at a time? That is very realistic. Just stop all life while I resolve this one problem.
From my reading this ruling appears to be for the motion filed by Ajit to "Quash the proceedings against him.". The court decided that there is no grounds for that. So the case can go on. I can see no where that the court has decided weather the content is indeed public or private etc. etc. That will be decided only when the actual case comes up for hearing.
Why would anyone google for MS word? I don't remember ever doing that. Well.. maybe once when I forgot the password for that password protected document. Other than that..
I googled for a rank of countries by the number of computers they own to see if there is any correlation between the number of computers and the country rank mentioned in the article. This is the best I could come up with. Anyone has something better?

Day is not far when people will have to do something about the sexual organs they are carrying around. I am sure it will be illegal.

Purple is more "professional" than Brown? Still looks dowdy to me.

Anyone else notice in the video that the user seems to be dragging his weight with his hands while crawling. The legs are not assisting him at all.

J. K. Rowling's lawyers seems to be on a suing spree.. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id=487334&in_page_id=1811 This one they lost.
Will microsoft has a say on the open source research projects going on in CMU now? CMU-SNMP, CMUSpinx are the two which turned up on a google search.
Oh, I am sure there wont be overt pressure.. but surly this gives lot of clout to Microsoft in influencing the powers that be in CMU.
And I would love to see my girl friend clearly for once while making love.
