"But the partners will continue their 50-50 ownership of the MSNBC Web site, which, partly as a consequence of its affiliation with Microsoft, is the most-used news site on the Internet."
Of course, the New York Times and Slashdot stories that have referenced MSNBC's news surely helped too.
I get the joke, but seriously, I got that huge ballyhooed Dell monitor (no squeals or anything yet *crosses fingers and toes*) and if I decide to maximize a window with a web page to the full 1920 by 1200, the one that stays 600 pixels wide with teeny-tiny 8pt Arial font will get negatively noticed, and kittens start dying.
Opera makes that point moot though, since it resizes images, along with fonts, with its zoom feature. I wait patiently for both IE and Firefox to improve their resizing. (Translation: IE, replace that Smallest-Small-Medium-etc. test-size-type thing with a smoother, more versatile zoom, and resize images; and Firefox, resize images with text when I press Ctrl+plus/minus. That way, pages look better and not tiny in HD, I think, while designers will care less about pixels.)
They can always appease them by including a free Half-Life movie with every card. (Of course, they'll finish it months after the actual free-movie offer, and it'll be choppy once every few minutes, but I'll still like it.)
Indeed, but first of all, never use short URL services in Slashdot. I had to blindly click on what may have been goa--gah, don't even remind me. Second, don't lose your groin just because you love its 4W3S0M3 GARF1K5!!1 and all o' that; have a book/box ready if it does fire up. I doubt it'll explode or anything, but all that stuff will certainly be an oven to the body. Pray it has good fans.

Seriously, your "The patent system needs to be fixed where we are not arguing ten-year old ideas -- by this time it's all old hat" belief seems contrary to your holdings. Give it/them away after ten holding years and then we'll know how your really feel.
Have the CVS/et al. makers complained about this? Sometimes, even good government goes blind (not that ours is even close to good intent anymore), and the improperly governed must swab its ears and scream "foul".
Yeah. But replace "Kong waving at you in a bathing suit" with "Naomi Watts waving at you in a bathing suit" and I'd take the task with all the patience and sloth of a Saleen S7.

Kong Lives!
·
· Score: 3, Funny
If Kong works hard enough and lives long enough, he becomes another remade classic character and HE TAKES THEIR BULLETS!!1 in a cocaine-filled rage. Or maybe not, but it's still fun to think of a cokehead gorilla who likes blondes.
Wow...I've seen odd things in the Times, but this (which, if you haven't RTFA, is in fact in the article!) is just weird and scary. I mean Daily WTF-type weird, and transit-strike-type scary. WOW.
MF: It's not spyware, like that stuff from what, Gator? It's a consumer-prefence program and digital wallet from Claria. It makes sure that users only see ads directed to their particular tastes.
That's priceless. I got some added stuff with mi Dell, but not quite that evil, and nothing that I could think of from Claria.
On the contrary, my demos of Quicken stuff came with an "Intuit Internal Printer" that can print to a PDF file, and (unlike Ghostscript!) can save links in the documents too. I'm extremely satisfied and await their presshhiouss*.
*from an Ebayer--but a reliable Ebayer, one with a long, flawless record. (crosses fingers)
Here in NYC, I blame the winter, the impending doom, and the lack of convincing ads for it. I see only a few ads once in a while (much of them here for Kong-branded lottery games and fast-food) and they serve to confuse me: are they advertising the branded products, or the movie itself? Kong started on the wrong foot at the wrong season, and suffers accordingly; if it was the summer, it would've gotten my patronage.
Articles themselves can be submitted for review by other Wikipedians (and there is a page for external article reviews) but as you imply, there's nothing yet to review changes. Pages can be protected with changes to be suggested on the corresponding Talk page.
Just blank it, slap on the cover of January 2006's Vanity Fair and you'll distract all the Wikipedians (or at least half of them) as you spam it with your views of how life began.;)
The way I see it, the best sites and blogs have someone uncovering (or better yet, making) something that's useful or just super cool. People like me see that, vote on it with the Google Toolbar (or any equivalent), and might even link to it when they get the chance, leading to Profit! for the guilty parties.
The best SEO will always be MAQS®*.

All right, all right.

"Googley greedoly woo" just doesn't have the same feel to it.

I was almost expecting him to say that after dinner, he broke out his Winchester 12-gauge and they all ran for cover.

There, now it seems plausible.

Of course, utilizing it is a wholly-different matter...
Thanks, I'll be here all week (or at least for another 1000 posts *pats own back*)

Cup sold separately. You put it together. Adult supervision required. Batteries not included.
I always thought bloggers were pre-programmed robots that spilled out random text. This source code proves it, I tell ya! ;)
The possible let-up on surveillance tyranny (barring further legislation)? Sounds more like a w00t!!1 moment than a case of Yuo fail it!
