Somehow I doubt the distinctions in ID were of importance.
The real success of the ID campaign is its rousin gup of the audience, inciting people into a fury of various emotions, and making the subject altogether taboo.
I tire of all these emotional responses, for that's what ID wants. When we seriously react to it as if it were serious, we give it power. A better reponse is to shirk it off, giggle a bit, and equate it to an urban legend... why not add it to Snopes?
My Blackberry loaded GMail just fine at HTML for the entire past year. Now they changed the interface, and it is much worse than before. The design is counter-intuitive. Also, they make you click a whole bunch of extra times.
I use open office. Been using it for 3 years. It still doesn't work as good as MS office. There are quirky things with it.
The spell checker essentially receives a D+. After I'm done writing a few dozen page paper, I have to paste it into MS office for because Open Office misses too much.
Firfox, for example, is receiving great press because it is a great product. It covers all the simple things. Open office is ok for the basic. MS Office is great for the basics. I'm not reviewing the advanced features here: The face of the product is what the majority of users review.
I still support Open Office though. And I will still use it. But I'm not going to say it is better than MS office. It comes close, but still has to simplify and reduce.
Also, the author of the article is way off the mark to flaw the open source movement as a whole just because of Open Office's shortcomings.

Blame god, how can you lose
Singing such sweet, rhytyhm and blues.
Strange days, she said to me
Being in love... don't mean you're free.

Blame my school & blame my parents
& the genes that I inherit
Blame it on my older sister for showing me her dirty pictures
Blame the TV & the movies
Blame the lawyers & the juries
Lock me up & take me home
I don't wanna be free
Goin' crazy on my onw n
It's not where I wanna be

Concerns about shuttle safety have been largely responsible for 22 major changes in the orbiter's design and as many as 40 more minor changes. "All of the redesign is complete," with a few exceptions, said Wayne Hale, deputy manager of the space shuttle program.
That doesn't matter. The US government (and states) are not supposed to compete with private business.
I used to think what you said was a good thing... until society found itself in a situation where nothing can seriously compete against private business. Walmart style.

Too bad all congressional debates coulnd't take place online. How great would that be if everyone debated issues on a blog.

Wouldn't science fiction of the real future already know this information?
Peace on earth is here today... through a few small reforms. I have seen the strategy. I'm not joking. I predict.

Drugs and prostitution should not be cyber crime. Neither should crimes relating to information freedom... so all that leaves are the phishers?
So does this mean Google will merge with AIM? You've got search.

Not trilateral. Quadralateral. You forgot to include the... you know who. Shhhhhh the children are listening.
...why don't parents just talk to their kids?

At least they didn't land in Iraq. Coming back from outer space to find the harsh realities may be a real downer.
