  1. I don't... on Most Americans Want Gov't To Make Internet Safer · · Score: 0

    The "dangers of the nasty internet" are evident, bothersome and overall annoying. I do not want the government to step in and take action because 9 times out of 10 that is bad news. People want the government to do something about it because the government is easy to blame. Just like people who sue McDonalds for making them fat. Ronald McDonald did not run up to you put a gun to your head and say eat these 3 grease patties. Likewise it was not the government that provided you with an unsafe internet. It was you, your peers, your fellow citizens. The perverts and the hustlers, the digital pimps and schemers; it was you. I will rue the day that the government steps in and begins doing something to make the internet safer. Because it will be then that the I realize the Bill of Rights do not mean a damn thing.

  2. Perhaps a Bad Choice on Apple Making a Spreadsheet? · · Score: 0

    Indeed that the word "Numbers" could make sense to a spread sheet program. However without knowing more details speculation is open to a variety of purposes; it could be a finance application or just a calculator.

    But it does make sense in the naming convention of previous Apple app's that a spreadsheet program would be called "Numbers." Yet I'm not convinced that this would be a good name for it.

  3. Great Article and Site on The Importance of RSS · · Score: 0

    I've been reading particletree for some time now and I found myself somewhat conflicted on aspects of this article.

    For the most part I did find myself agreeing with the article but the part about AdSense for Feeds at the very end left me a bit confused. I tried AdSense for feeds out and even though my RSS traffic makes my site traffic look juvenile I still saw better results on the site than in the feeds.

  4. Statistically Humorous on Zombie Report By ISP · · Score: 0

    You give AOL an inch and they take a mile. Sue they have the better number but this is only due to their holding of so much of the ISP market.

  5. Re:Good magazine so far... on Makers of MAKE · · Score: 1

    Yeah I really like the MAKE Magizine too and how you can make just about anything from anything. Still waiting on how to build a PC out of a tin can and a gum wrapper though.
