...is an oxymoron
the value of a book is in it's paper form; no one will read a book on a computer.
furthermore, so what if i can print a book on my color laser. it will never have the quality of a book from the print shop.
don't know what they're worried about.
i don't want to pay for a recipe in a cookbook just because it's in a cookbook.
"But I did know at the time that the -- the DCI and the intelligence community had said, the intelligence community as a whole believed that these were for centrifuge parts" involved in nuclear weapon production.

no matter how good search engines become, users will have to be able to define what they want. it's just plain the user's fault if he/she searches for 'apple' and expects 'good' results.

such syntax can be eliminated (thus reducing the need for educated users) if more advanced search engines can effectively interpret natural language queries.
google already helps user's mistakes with their "did you mean..." phrase.
This isn't an article where americans can say the UN sucks; (vs.) the rest of the world that says the UN should be in control.

hey slashdot people. the mindless masses are just UNINFORMED and dont know better. look at the things MS has forced people (included in the OS)to use over the years:
- defragger (do you think people would actually LOOK for one?!?!)
- firewall (SP2)
- backup
- disk cleanup
- anti-virus
just think of MS as a distribution channel where %80 of people are tuned into it.
email was never meant to be a means for file transfer. I wish people would send me links instead of huge attachments.
(this is just one among other misuses of email)
time, cost, media:
-1mos. $0 crappy pirated private screening from the internet
0mos $20 at the theater
4mos $10 discount theater screening
6mos $7 on pay-per-view
9mos $20 DVD
1year $0 on local ZBYTV
just depends where you want to consume on the "consumption" line.
