It looks like wikipedia does let you browse by entry name alphabetically: link
So you could actually read wikipedia from cover to cover in a manner of speaking.
The greatest company in the world isn't going to get anywhere if nobody knows it exists. Small startups can't exactly go around buying super bowl ads every time they have a new product.
The whole point of the article is that a small business's competitive-ness can be trumped simply by how their website is formatted.
I think thats what idea behind the 'My Yahoo' feature is all about. You can customize your start page to contain just the elements you are interested like news an local weather (although I'm sure they find a way to fit a few other things in there).
Personally, I like the small news block on the left of Yahoo's screen. I think it conveys current news quickly and concisely without all the clutter and unnecessary nonsense that starting points like MSN have.
I've used Yahoo as my home page since 1994 and have always been happy with how the layout stays the same and with the amount and quality of cool content with minimal advertising.
I remember that prior to Google being used by Yahoo, it was powered by Inktomi for a period of time. I wonder if this was before or after Yahoo bought them and if they have always planned on using Google temporarily until more development was put into Inktomi.
I think it also has a lot to do with the fact that there are 7000 turbines. The new wind farms that are being built here in Oklahoma each just have a couple dozen giagantic turbines. One of the wind farms that is now online produces 50 MWatts of power with 34 turbines.

This webpage shows that the Altamont Pass wind farm consists of a wide assortment of different types of turbines including many small ones. There are two groups of over 1500 turbines (nearly 3200 turbines total) that produce only 160 MWatts each.
At my last job our boss came by while we were in the process of filing a co-worker's office to the ceiling with baloons. At first she was annoyed, but then joined us.

A Mac cube ornimented like a house really would be a fire hazard.
Right, but I just wondering if there was any liability. It seems like if everyone had public access, then whenever someone wanted to do something illegal they could just get on someone else's public WAP.
If the owner of the access point wasn't liable for the actions of the users, then how is abuse of public wireless networks prevented? Don't get me wrong.. I'm all for public wireless access points, but I am just curious about this aspect of it.
Obviously it hasn't been a major problem, otherwise there probably wounldn't be so many public WAPs out there.
Its still not half as dangerous as driving on the highway in LA.. Four seater airplanes don't experience regular spontaneous mechanical failures contrary to popular opinion and I'm sure any compentent pilot knows how to stay out of an airport's traffic pattern.

I think either 'Take me to the River' or 'Bitch is Back' would have been better choices.
