  1. iPod Speaker Reviews on Homemade iPod Hi-Fi mini · · Score: 4, Informative

    I have been setting up a new site reviewing all of the different iPod Speaker Systems. We have been looking at iPod Alarm clocks, iPod Boom boxes, and portable iPod Speaker systems. All reviews and input are welcome!

    It is possible that this comment will get moded down but I am only letting people know about the site so that we can increase awareness and reach that critical mass so that the site becomes a useful resource for people. All useful and big sites started out as small sites. All comments are welcome and if you have used any of the speaker system please post your experiences and thoughts.

  3. iPod Speaker Reviews on Mac Mini and iPod Hi-Fi Over-Hyped? · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I have just set up a new website to talk about all the different iPod Speaker Systems. I have not had chance to look at the Apple option up close. But with its price tag it had better sound pretty darn good.

    Has anyone had a chance to hear it yet?

    Check out iPod Speaker Reviews If you have any iPod speaker system it would be great if you could post a review. I am just getting the site started and all input is appreciated and welcome.

  4. Porsche MP3 Player on Top 10 Strangest MP3 Players · · Score: 1

  5. Re:Get rid of your television! on Congress Pays You $3 Billion to Keep Watching TV · · Score: 1
    I devised with a great middle ground solution. I got rid of my television and set up an dlp projector in its place. The screen that it displays on is a set of Rand McNally world maps with one of the sheets being a plain white screen. This allows me to accomplish a lot:

    • Apartment looks better no Television staring at me when I get home
    • Better when people visit, real conversations not everyone watching TV
    • Since is a little more work to adjust the maps I watch less TV
    • 4ft by 6ft screen to watch movies and playstation 2
    • See world georgarphy and definitions when ever I want
    • Use a laser pointer on the maps
    • Created a LCD DLP Projector Website


    All in all this has been a great solution for me. Watch very little TV and can watch the shows that are important, Presidential Addresses, Big Games, and Movies.

    This may be something that you want to consider :-)

    Intel is missing the boat. They need to market this chip to students in dorm rooms, as a dual use product. It is a Hot Plate / set top Media Center PC.

  17. More profitable that poker on Economics of Online Gaming · · Score: 2, Funny

    I have recently picked up the game of Texas Holdem. I figured out that it was costing me around $8.00 to play online.

    So I can make $3.00/hour in one online game to fund an $8.00/hour in another online game.

    Heroineware anyone?

    hmmmm. If I could only reverse the two then I would be in the money. Sounds like a plan

  18. Re:What of ODP/DMOZ/Google Directory? on The New Yahoo!, Google, MSN Et Al. Battleground · · Score: 2, Insightful

    DMOZ is still king, but is it getting too big for its britches?

    A friend tried to become an editor but with little or no response to his applications. I know he would like to help out but they do not seem to be interested in any help or saying why this person is not good enough to help out.

    The same goes for site listing. They are slow to react if they do at all.

    Is this the common experience or is my friend just hopeless? I sort of would like to tell him that the slashdot community has deemed him hopeless. :)
