    85% and 20%? Actual figures?
    You just proved that 90% of the statistics are just pulled out of one's ass. ;-)

  2. Re:Here are the top 10. on PC World's 20 Most Innovative Products of 2006 · · Score: 1

    Nobody is forcing you to believe anything on hear-say. Why don't just try it out and add some weight to your Office bashing?

    P.S: Please don't tell you're sick of already trying out the all the previous versions and why should this version of Office be better. It just may be.

  4. Mr Kraus last year on Reddit and JotSpot Acquired · · Score: 1
    But last year Mr Kraus (co-founder of Excite) had different opinion on Google.
    Here's the juicy excerpt from the article:
    To place Google in context, Mr. Kraus offered a brief history lesson. In the 1990's, he said, I.B.M. was widely perceived in Silicon Valley as a "gentle giant" that was easy to partner with while Microsoft was perceived as an "extraordinarily fearsome, competitive company wanting to be in as many businesses as possible and with the engineering talent capable of implementing effectively anything." Now, in the view of Mr. Kraus, "Microsoft is becoming I.B.M. and Google is becoming Microsoft." Mr. Kraus is the chief executive and a founder of JotSpot, a Silicon Valley start-up hoping to sell blogging and other self-publishing tools to corporations.

    Why did the submitter think an article that was created on July of 2006 fresh enough to be posted on a forum which is News for nerds. An article that old is hardly news.

  9. Simpler way to measure it! on Google.org, a For-Profit Charity · · Score: 3, Insightful

    You could do all that or just measure the costs incurred maintaining that vehicle in terms of $/mile or miles/$. This makes details of the fuel used irrelevant. This way most economic car would be the one that gives more miles per buck. And yeah we could keep all the pollution norms in place to make sure that the new type of fuel would be easy on environment.
