While visiting family not long ago I found in the storage room a bunch of old VCR board games where at times you'd be instructed to watch the next five minutes of a VHS tape to determine your fate (i.e. winner of a WWF wrestling match, for instance). I wonder if this DVD will be as successful/unsuccessful as the Star Wars VHS Game.
Before they had their news aggregator there were several others such as NewsHub and even Yahoo had one for a little while (though recently NewsHub's server performance is much slower, it started when Lycos became more visible on the home page). I agree with others that more filtering features needs to be added or publicized at the Google one to search by region, by newswire, etc.
It'd be interesting if Slashdot followed up on previous stories (aka "Where are they now?") to see how reliable these inventions really are a year or so after being posted from Slashdot. Seems in most cases we only see the initial construction/creation and never hear about it again.

One year they sues to protect their meaty name and the next year they endorse it by giving out golden cans.
Will VOIP have any bandwidth left to use when there's also Kazaa and spyware traffic on the line?

I'd rather spend $1000 on a Sony DCR-DVD301 (Google'd info) that records directly to Mini-DVD's.
replace -all "Lycos" "Tucows"
I stand corrected, Tucows owns NewsHub.

At least the offer is for free shares instead of trying to con billions from us.
Now the question is, which of our's girlfriend is this posting a question to AskSlashdot (assuming "he" also reads it).
