Yeah, I was kinda of hoping that adding the junk at the bottom I might get a little more out of it. Free traffic is free traffic.
I only saw about 40, it may have gotten a better turn out had it been in my original +5, the other one never made it past it's initial 1, so nobody saw it.

Yahoo! did not buy a "search engine" they purchased a company that provides a Pay Per Click advertising mechanism that is most likely very profitable. I can say that they they get a pretty good chunk of my advertising budget every month.
These are examples from my business. Using the same basic keywords.

Which one of those makes more sense to you from a business perspective?

Your approach is only going to call a function on an empty object. I want to be able to get to an Object within an Object. Unless I am missing something.

Personally I'm glad to see it. I'm tired of having to create a new object just to call one of it's methods (see Dereferencing). Not to mention not being able to throw/catch Exceptions.

When are they going to fix the fact that it takes forever for it to handle redirects??
I'd give you an Informative mod, but my points just ran out.
I realize that most people are not aware of these things, but having just signed another Merchant Agreement, I want to reach across the bar and smack the next bartender that tells me there is a minimum on credit cards...
That was funny. The last time I saw anybody duct taped to anything, was when it was the penalty you got for passing out out in the open. Nothing like seeing the guys face when he wakes up taped to a tree with his feet 3' off the ground.
there were always 3-4 movies laying around the house in addition to our own collection. When your scenario came up, we had 3-4 movies plus our collection to choose from.
Finish one and send it off.
Of course this was back when you could turn around a movie with NetFlix in about 4 days.

I am only making an assumption here, but most people with an entertainment system keep it all in one spot (around the TV), so if the Tivo-Basic will stream tunes from down the hall so much the better.

I would venture to guess that those numbers are also skewed in the other direction by people like me that do not allow the notifications to be sent...
So it may very well be a wash. Although I doubt there are as many users that don't send the reports as there apps that crash all day long.
But I also doubt that Bill would say publicly that 5% of all windows systems crash multiple times a day if the number wasn't actually a little higher.
Just a thought.
Of course I recently switched, so I could be full of it.

PhatBox
I know, it's not cheap and doesn't support vorbis files and the manager is Windows only.
But to me the ability to control it through my factory head unit makes that a non-issue.
It does support mp3, wma, flac and audible.
If I wasn't leasing my car I would have gotten one as soon as Audi officially supported and started installing them.
Been there done that...

I think the worst part for me was trying to find the damn floppies.

Overture is capable of delivering as many clicks as I am able to pay for.
;)
I can spend $3000 at google and get ~1000 visits or I can spend $3000 at overture and get ~3200 visits
I'm sure that may not be the case for every business, but it is true in my space.
I should have added that Your Mileage May Vary to my original post
