  1. Re:Instead of sending DVDs home on Best Laptop for Going Around the World? · · Score: 1

    I agree with buying extra storage/redundancy. You definitely don't want to lose any good pictures after a trip like this!

  2. Re:Without the silly flash interface on Rate Your IM Popularity · · Score: 1

    "How do I win?
    Your score is the sum of the current number of people online who have you listed as a buddy, out to three degrees. This means the score is constantly changing, and the winner of the battle will constantly change with it. "

    It says it right on the page that the number is based on the amount of people WHO ARE CURRENTLY ONLINE back three degrees from your buddy list. The concepts are similar, yet completely different.

    The BIG difference is that AIM fight does not give out any other screen names for things like people who have buddy listed you or common buddies.

    Actually AIM fight seems very different from Buddy Zoo. First off, Buddy Zoo is static, Aimfight is dynamic and counts your score based on only users that are currently signed online. So it TRULY shows how connected your network is. I could have 1,000 screen names on buddy zoo marked as friends, but that doesn't mean much if they never sign onto AIM anymore. Secondly, AIMfight allows the user much more privacy. It does not give out screen names that have you listed as friends or allow you to see who has you buddy listed, or even allows you to see friends that you have in common with other people. AIMfight is merely a real time score that depicts how connected you truly are.
