And here we have the Typosquatter, a theropod dinosaur, roughly between the early punchcards and their ultimate culmination in the Domain-Squatting dinosaurs. It lived between 1 to 13 years ago, in the Windows Ages.
Of the early Internet period, though one unknown species is from the very late Typewriter period. The various Typosquatter species are bulky omnivores, ranging from approximately 2 to 3 metres (5-8 feet) in height, and averaging about 235 pounds in weight.
Its most distinctive feature was the uncanny ability to take on the likeness of other domains, likely used for trapping its fumbling prey and for phishing scams. It was recently hunted to extinction by Tyrannus Microsoftus using its most effective method of capture, the 'URL Tracer.'

From a ZDNet Aug.1, 2005 Declan McCullagh article titled , Copyright lobbyists strike again The Central American nations participating in CAFTA must also:
- Permit software patents
- Extend copyright protection to "70 years after the author's death"
- Ban the "manufacture" or "export" of any hardware or software that could decode encrypted satellite TV signals
- Offer "online public access to a reliable and accurate" WhoIs database of domain name registration details
It's true that these may be ideas beloved by the Bush administration and business lobbyists, but they have far more to do with special-interest lobbying than traditional notions of free trade.
In reality, they're simply the latest in a string of victories that copyright lobbyists have managed to accumulate in the last decade--under both Democratic and Republican presidents--through adept work at influencing the arcane process of treaty drafting.
Negotiating below the radar
"We push for that in trade agreements and treaties and bilateral" agreements, Robert Cresanti, vice president for public policy at the Business Software Alliance, told me last week. Members of his group include Adobe Systems, Cisco Systems, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Intel and Microsoft.
FTA: And whenever he was in a public place, he said, strangers would call to him.
"Hey! It's Ghyslain Raza! Star Wars Kid, hey!"
This would have been a golden opportunity to autograph pictures, make new videos, and sell them online for tons of profit. But maybe the lawsuit would be more lucrative.
Man, it was difficult to read that interview with 2 annoying OCZ and NewEgg flash ads moving up and down and side to side on each side of the article. Do these people think about the effect these ads have on their readers? It makes you not want to read the page at all IMHO.
The FTC and California charged that the defendants e-mail:
-- contained false or forged header information;
-- included deceptive subject headings;
-- failed to identify e-mail as advertisements or solicitations;
-- failed to notify consumers they had a right to opt out of receiving more e-mail;
-- failed to provide an opt-out mechanism;
-- failed to include a valid physical postal address.
If this can't get them shut down what can? Sending out spam email that totally destroys your computer into tiny little pieces?
Maybe this could be the solution to all of Scotty's power needs? Just inject this virus into the Enterprise's computer-controlled power regulation system?

It's not all that bad see? I dual booted my PC yesterday and now I need to go out and buy a new one - since it is in pieces.
Seriously, this does look good for Apple, I think I will be going out to buy their latest so I can finally get my Windows games to run properly!
thing was that it was about 3PM Sunday, and it didn't look like a single one had been moved
I think either people are waiting for the PS3, the price to drop because it is too expensive, or more and better games to start being released. Sometimes waiting a while for new technology to work the bugs out is the best thing anyway.
Makes me laugh to think back in December I saw XBOX 360s on Ebay going for $600 - $800 a piece.
AT&T, Comcast, Time Warner, and Verizon spent $230.9 million on politicians from 1998 until the present, while Amazon, eBay, Google, Microsoft and Yahoo spent only a combined $71.2 million. (Those figures include lobbying expenditures, individual contributions, political action committees and soft money.)
When will people learn that laws will only get passed in this 'K Street Project' Congress if you simply spend enough money to bribe them?
Oh well, I guess people will be happy when I finish my life's work of designing and implementing a totally neutral "Internet 3"
I heard an interview with the scientist who helped find this and he said it was 'one of many' missing links to the evolution of land animals from fish, but certainly not the only one.
The book asks to be judged against a high standard: Can it turn a SQL and Visual Basic novice into a professional?
FTA:
I guess my only quibble is that in using "Novice" in the title, the book promises more than it delivers, at least in this area. This isn't suitable for a beginner to Visual Basic.
So, is discovering that dear ol' Uncle DG had a 3-digit UID anything like finding a box of old IBM stock or something?
It all comes back to your Karma. If you have good Karma, you pass it on. If you have bad Karma, they may not want to associate with it at all. P.S. nice UID.

"My goal wasn't to make a ton of money. It was to build good computers. I only started the company when I realized I could be an engineer forever."
I woz truly blown away by this statement.

That's why I only use text messaging on my cell phone. But I'm sure my thumb cancer is unrelated.
Don't worry, I think you got that from your Crackberry.

Trust me, you will live a happier, longer life.

Any chance that we will read an article here about the US Government that doesn't involve:
1) Spying on its citizens
2) Allowing companies to spam and fax at will & abuse patent law
3) Silencing or changing scientific studies or theories?
Don't worry - if it's not the cell phone that kills you, the guy talking on one while driving into your lane - will.
Solution: Close them to those users.
at what point do you realise that the current administration is out of control , perhaps when soldiers are knocking on your door ?
I realized that as soon as Bush won the election by a Supreme Court decision. Democracy or Plutocracy - YOU DECIDE?
Think of it like this, there are two types of people who will want a German car, some go for BMW, some go for Mercedes

I guess I am not a person since I like the Volkswagen GTI MkV

Come on guys, your scientific research is all flawed. There is no such thing as global warming! You need to go back, and do some more studies.
Why do you keep saying that the clima....*GLUB* *GLUB* *WHOOSH* *FLUSH* *GURGLE* *BUBBLE* *pop*

Hey Bill, change your desktop wallpaper, it is looking a bit dated. And wash your hair.
He says he only gets 100 emails a day, surely we can send him some more to billg@microsoft.com ?
