It's like the other competition with...um...standing bodies. But as this article proves, it's not the size of the boat, it's the motion of the ocean, baby!
What they're proposing is something different than a filter - what they're proposing is a system of honeypot computers which can be easily compromised by virii that are on the loose. So when a new one appears, it is recognized and information about it is disseminated to other computers on the network. Pretty smart, if they can actually get it to detect even radically new virii.
Of course, the launch was just the beginning, and we're still busy improving Gmail. We keep increasing free storage (2656 MB and counting), we offer the interface in 38 languages, and we now have features such as auto-save drafts, so that you don't accidentally lose that half-written message. We know that Gmail isn't quite right for everyone yet. We're working on that too - there's still more we can do for the folder-lovers and devout-deleters out there. But wait, there's more!:) We also have a new batch of exciting innovations on the way that we hope will shake things up again and make Gmail even better for even more people.
Well, the some of the smartest brains in the world have been employed to produce catchy tunes, jingles, and slogans for years. This is just an evolution.
Actually, it could be a bad sign, too. The audience gets a sense of humor from a level that is not entirely conscious, and comedians make fun of society - if comedy is getting more prolific, more outrageous, and funnier, they might be taking advantage of a widespread subconscious understanding that society is not as it should be.
While I feel sympathy for the poor bastards suffering in NOLA and elsewhere, I feel it's a good thing that Katrina is making Americans sit up and think about possible connections between environmental cause and meteorological effect.
It's not going to happen. They will mostly be concerned with how to abuse (transcript down a bit) their $2,000 FEMA debit cards than having lofty thoughts about the biosphere. You are probably among the 5% who did think about it that way, and you were already thinking it anyway.
I think cell phones are becoming too much like pet squirrels. Soon, they'll learn to breed like crazy during summer - they already know how to hibernate.
I actually really like Opera as well, but it hasn't become my main browser yet, primarily because some scroll-wheel click functions that I got used to in Firefox are missing in Opera, specifically the ability to open an entire folder of bookmarks with a simple middle click. It's how I check my webcomics; I like how they're all finished loading when I get to them, and it's much, much faster than opening each bookmark individually. I also caught myself searching google for a tabs extension for Opera before I realized there was no such thing.
On the other hand, Opera is fast, pretty, and free. Not that Firefox costs anything, but Opera used to cost money and therefore it feels like I'm getting a deal whenever I use it.

Oops, the ocean probably doesn't have anything to do with it unless it affects the number of pirates.

Even Google doesn't know.
No problem, I'll take it!
That's right. I'm not arrogant; I'm just better than you.
Paul English evidently didn't teach you much about spelling.
Now, I didn't read the article, or even the comments, but from what I can tell, it seems like the title should read:
Costly Music Store Coming to Die on Cellphones
For those not in the know, here are some exchanges between netizens and Jack Thompson:
VG Cats v Jack Thompson
Penny-Arcade v Jack Thompson
a 14 Year Old v Jack Thompson
He was pwned terribly in each case.
A stretch, but I like it. When do the Crusades start?
Could you find a link backing that claim up? I can't find a definitive answer.
We did a pH test on Pepsi in Jr. High. Turned out to be about 2, which is really acidic...about 1 for 1 with the pH of the stomach.
The only place where it would be even remotely feasible to find a hot Jedi girl who pwns in Counter-Strike... Count me in!

Holy shit, I just got finished with inputting my cases. I wish I had something as exciting as dog semen though...
What about the GoogleBlog?
Although, admittedly, I would not count a blog a success without viewer feedback, to know that people are reading and what they think.

No, but they're not getting the dog or the kids either.

Once I mobilize the army of undead Chicagoan voters, this will be a certainty.
