  1. ChoiceMail One? on One Third of Email Now Spam · · Score: 1

    Has anyone here checked into the program ChoiceMail One by Digiportal http://www.digiportal.com? This program seems to be a good solution although it doesn't eliminate the spam it places the burden on the sender to prove the mail is legit. Check it out and let me know what you think.

  2. This idea blows the space ads out of the water. on Pop Up Ads in Space · · Score: 1

    I don't own the patents to any of this technology, but what about using Hypersonic Sound transmitters to transmit audio ads directly to our ears. This could be done using GPS to direct exactly where the beams should go. The GPS tracking system could then use RFID to derive not only location, but demographic information, preferences, and such to direct target advertising to individuals. Hows that sound?

  3. Cheaper than what option? on Largest Citywide Wi-Fi Deployment · · Score: 1

    have not had DSL broadband access to the Internet because the city is too far from the telephone company's central office. Cable Internet access has not been an option, either, Hylton said.

    "We're pleased that our residents will at last have an option for broadband that will be more affordable than is currently available," Hylton said.

    How is the option for broadband more affordable than what is currently available if there isn't anything currently available?

  4. 50%, Ha try 100% on Virginia Arrests Man For Spamming · · Score: 2, Funny

    Time Warner, AOL, MCI? How about the CIA, Langley, Virginia...Doesn't all Internet traffic flow through there?

  5. What do you use? on Virginia Arrests Man For Spamming · · Score: 1

    I've been following the spam issue for a while now and been looking at options for controling or blocking spam. I haven't been to pleased with the functionality of black lists, or spam filters simply because you have to get the spam first before you can begin filtering it. I also don't like missing e-mails because someone had the wrong words in the subject line. One program I've looked into though is Choice Mail by digiportal. Have any of you used this program before? I believe it sounds like a good way to keep the spam out of your inbox all together, but having never taken the time to review it myself, I'm still a bit skeptic. Let me know what you think, and what works for you.

  6. What about previews on Steve Jobs and the State of Legal Music Downloads · · Score: 1

    Currently one of the biggest uses I find for Kazaa is to preview all of the tracks on a cd so that I know which ones I like or not. I am hesitant to switch to a pay-per-download service because I don't want to pay for something that I'm not going to listen to. Same reason I don't like buying CD's. What are some of your experiences with this?

  7. Re:Move along.... on Malaysian Police Not Roping Longhorn Rustlers · · Score: 1

    You mean, you don't think they have windows update working with longhorn yet?
