the *only* thing that still makes me rather windows over linux for the desktop (and it's not games)
i like to see a flashing/message icon. and press a global shortcut key when i want to read it. thanks to that only feature, i'm still on windows + http://miranda-im.org/
with gaim, you have two options: 1) have the message popup on your screen spontaneously, even with manager reading code on you screen 2) use the... *ugh*... mouse... *ugh*... to double click gaim's icon
> I still think that if Opera were open source, 99% of the/. users that bash it now would be drooling all over it.
i not so sure. they tend to release some minor versions increments that i'm sure are ugly hacks for specific sites. And usualy a great version increment break some feature down... and got fixed in a way that break a tird in the next minor release... But overal the.5 works fine:)
so, i think "drooling" would be too much to say. Because i'm prety sure their code would be ugly, at least.
On the other hand, i'm using it exclusively for 4 years. It gives you control of the web easily
And now that it's free, i'm converting people that i converted to firefox years ago to it:)
How can you talk about usability and still force the user, dumb or not, to waste time arranging windows on the screen? screw this!
If you use those WM, then you're not contributing to nothing. Open source is nice because it can change and explore new ways of doing things. If you just want to copy what's already there... then i think it's time i change the ribbon on my site to SUPPORT fucking software patents after all.
i didn't read the article, the comments already showed my that it was BS...
basicaly, when i was doing games with javascript and php in 1999, i had to choose beetween latency and bandwidth. bandwith was the most expensive thing back then.
now, everywhere we got plents of bandwith... or will soon. people are calling THIS as web 2.0.
I'd cut my leg if ANY market person has the right definition in mind, and by the comments, even the article writter didn't had a clue, he was just talking about bandwith avaibility allowing for better apps. period.
so, when you hear this crap just:%s/web 2.0/cheap bandwidth/
and when sony sues me (thu RIAA), i just load one of those handy cds with digital-rootkit-management and claim that someone else (probably at sony) was hijacking my computer and putting all those mp3, that i've never heard about before, there.
1. sony claims it needed the DRM crap to prevent pirates 2. sum up the recall of the cds and drm development into "loses due to pirates" 3. lots of news: "p2p makes music company loose money!" 4. ? 5. PROFIT!

Actualy, fireworks eat up photoshop at breakfast.
with fireworks you have amazing fine control "over pixel" when doing graphics for the web.
Not to mention that any program can read the final image as a regular PNG, while with photoshop you have to use some crap that can read PSD's. That makes fireworks much more usefull with file browsers that can show preview for stantard types (like png)

Then get the results (that is, if you can't read japanese) and paste back into the textarea and translate from japanese to english.
Being google, well, google. It will get the subtle meaning in the mind of the writter and put back the real meaning out of that engrish.

i know no one reads the article, but they mentioned SUN in the post!
what makes you think you only have 2 options?
both sucks.
At work I always have a well configured windows desktop (and with a bunch of terminals to linux boxes and unixutils installed)
my choice in linux is to use ION.

yep, ajax crap can be usefull, but will surely be misused. remember the debate around cookies?

actualy it is when you are a dislexic, hear and read more then write english (2.o language) and post at work so you don't proof read much...

you clearly knows nothing about human behaviour.
had you changed the subject with the comment, everyone would click it to read.
if it was "go apple", then since this is not a apple-praise-post, all the mac drollers would click and then fall into you trollishnes.
but no. you had to say it right out eh? hope gnaa don't give you that troll scout badge, kid
watched the ad for the some-days-free.. sounded like an honest deal.
*after* the ad, i'm informed that the service is not available in my country.
now i'll have some sweet memories about the product being advertised there... and will surely buy a dozen
