I'd actually argue that while the text ads had something to do with it, the massive growth in pop-up/under blockers made as much of a difference, if not even more.
but i'm pretty that annoying ads, even tricky pop-under ones, never had the kind of click % that google ads to.
is there a reason they took out or renamed the file, edit etc menus?
i agree that some of them can be a bit innaaaacuraaately naaamed, and eeeeverybooody knows it! but getting rid of the menus that our secretaries and data entry drones have come to know by heart sounds like a great way to lose a few weeks training your staff over again.
sometimes it seems no one gives a crap about patent reform but us nerds, but now that some patent cases are hurting the government, maybe they will begin to listen?
so many of you are condemning this bill as if it will destroy video games, but you are so horribly mistaken i am blown away!
if "ultra-violent" (lol clockwork orange) video games are not allowed to be sold to kids, responsibility will be on the parents who buy games for their kids -- where the responsibility should be -- instead of on game developers.
this is just like the jack thompson case. we think it's funny that he is off his case now, but when another (less insane) lawyer does take the case, who knows what might happen.
The idea that people might get a ROKR and say "wow, this is cool, I want to buy an iPod now" seems more plausable
hmm i don't think so, someone who has some songs on their phone would probably not see the need for another device for songs in their pocket..
this does add up my friend, another article like this was available the day after the crappy rokr came out. apple likely plans on releasing a phone that they design themself in the future.
anyone who voted to have ID taught (or accepted) in public schools should re-evaluate their lives.
if they want to teach their children something different from what the school does, they should just do it. if they are so insanely concerned that their kids will learn the wrong thing, perhaps they are not teaching them anything at home?
we live in a country where uploading one movie over the internet can incur a fine of $150,000 and even jail time, and stealing a dvd from best buy might not even land you a night in jail! do you think that i will let a government that can maintain these 2 conflicting ideas teach my children what is right and wrong?
if the school did legitimately have a policy for student abstinence (which it may very well have, especially if it were a private and/or religious school) then they were well within their limits.
there is a big difference between doing something on campus that violates school policy, and making a website from home.
well, there are 3 kinds of people who use game hacks: 1) those who want to ruin others' gameplay, 2) those who want to appear better at the game than they are, and 3) those who "just want to try it".
(the people in group 3 are really in 2, but they are lying to themselves so i will go along with it)
so yeah, your plan makes sense to people who don't deal with cheaters, but it doesn't work in reality:/
lol they pass the user/pass via GET ? that is retarded, and you should keep in mind that your user/pass for that site will likely be stored in your history as well.
fox is lobbying for current events to be banned from being posted on blogs.
i was going to mod parent up, but they are already at 5. i would love to see parent's questions asked.

sony ericson would include sony connect or rhapsody or whatever sony's shit service is, not itunes..
a single guy?
you'd think he would have found a girlfriend by now if he RUNS the site..
woah i didn't know that DVD Jon, the Sony rootkit, Amazon and Google were slashdot readers!
this way no one will try to spend the time it may take to rip it (assuming players are commercially available)
no one would waste that much time ripping a movie this bad
yes, amazing. zonk dissapears for a while, comes back, posts 2 dupes in a day.
peoplepc tried this (essentially) in the late 90s or early 00s.
it didn't last long.
if anyone's heard of it: > .99 .99 .99
a few songs:
nothing:
i think the use of "on-line" in the summary says a lot about who will come out on top

YEAH! that's why we need software patents!
wait.. what
i bet this baby can pump 1.2 jiggahertz!
it is like the salem witch trials.
accusations and "trials" continued until one of the governors' wife was accused.
can it determine if a story on slashdot is a dupe? that would make it worth buying

hmm.. good call

if someone claims to believe to be a christian, but rejects certain parts of the bible, have they not just written their own bible?
the same applies to every religion that is based on a holy book. how can a book be holy if you write your own?
