That's right. Spamming can only be done in the US. Not overseas, where bandwidth (apparently) is cheaper and more plentiful. And those spammers would never move. I mean, they have roots put down in the US! They wouldn't want to leave all their spammin' buddies behind.
Naw. They'll never, ever, EVER, go over to the UK or try to setup botnets in the UK. Crazy, crazy, mayor.
I'll give you AdSense. However, "scaling pagerank"? Give me a break. White boxing it has been around since... Ever. It just got lost somewhere in the cash flowing days of the dot-com boom.
Where is the Google innovation? IBM CLEVER project pre-dates PageRank. Gmail, Google Talk, Google Maps, Google Desktop Search -- All of it is just Google following the pack, reimplementing what was already there.
The difference between Microsoft and Google? People believe in Google.
You really haven't shown any evidence that Microsoft didn't invest in Internet technologies, or even that they tried to tighten their hold on the OS market.
And since when was the Internet the dominant or perferrer platform? Less I have to deal with a web browser and the boat load of half-implementation standards, that happier I am.
The MSN shuffle and that familiar-sounding memo come just as Google is poised to become the biggest threat to Microsoft's hold on the tech industry since Netscape shipped its first browsers.
Not the best comparison to make since, ya know, Microsoft killed Netscape.
Small problem with their "brilliant" plan: NBC videos are not public domain; Slashdot isn't (I think); Books are not public domain; The web isn't public domain, for crying out loud.
A matter of time before Google cuts into the profits of their content producers. Then we gotta call in the lawyers.
Technically the default for UNIX is also root, but hey...
Even if you built an operating system around secure principles (removing the insecure instead of adding the secure, principle of least authority, etc), you still have a user who is willing to save an attachment from an email, unzip it, enter a password, and run a program!
The best security software is the person operating the computer.
Compact Power Systems also introduced a product called the iRecharge, a rechargeable portable battery that fits snugly around your iPod, iPod mini or iPod shuffle giving the iPod and iPod mini 12 hours of extra play time and the iPod shuffle 40 extra hours.
I mean, in an emergency, I want my iPod recharged!
I think we need to start letting corporations sponsor hurricanes. In exchange for getting their name on a hurricane (and thus in the press), they'll pick up 50% of the damanages.
Just think: Pepsi Presentes Hurricane Melvin. Hurricane Ashlee: A Joint Venture of Wal-Mart, Google, and Dell.
If that documentary "The Day After Tomorrow" has taught me anything, it's that the Gulf Stream controls everything. From this, I conclude that it has been disrupted resulting in centralized increase in tropical cyclones in the Atlantic ocean.
I'm calling for an evacuation of everyone to the right of California. We'll be moving these refugees to, of course, California.
Slashdot Mirror
Yes, you could using hash-trees. I'm surprised the creator of TinyDisk didn't do it himself.
This whole thing reminds me a lot of Venti.

Now spammers have even more bandwidth to play with.
Now worms will hit with a harder punch.
Why aren't you just the little Google fanboy.

There's been an interesting discussion on the Erlang mailing list about a possible AJAX implementation. http://www.erlang.org/ml-archive/erlang-questions/ 200509/msg00282.html http://www.erlang.org/ml-archive/erlang-questions/ 200509/msg00320.html
Oh yeah, I know about those. But those aren't "consumer" products. Gmail, Desktop Search, things like that are "consumer" products.

Since when has Google sold anything directly to the consumer? In other words, who's to say it won't be a free set-top box?

Come in, come in. Mayday! I'm losing your transmission!
This makes Nintendo Revolution look like a toy... Oh wait.

Tell me again why they should learn the inner workings of the computer.
Profits seem to reduce drastically too. (Hey! I'm a corrupt mayor! I'm required to be greedy!)

The nostalgia factor is clearly off the charts. That only should be reason enough.
