I'm sure what is so hip about Myspace or Facebook, but I prefer professional social networking. I prefer LinkedIn.com for my social networking. It allows me to link up with current/past coworkers and friends. I would rather not have a Myspace/Facebook account and have something more professional showing who I work and relate with. To be honest, I have never felt the need to 'blog' or show questionable photos on the internet....maybe thats why I stay away from those sites.
FYI, this is not a SPAM for LinkedIn, just a comment on the site. Being employeed in a global company, I'm actually surprised by the number of people that have a LinkedIn accounts (even executives).
No, I have heard of it, but what fun is it to play on a network with other illegal systems? I LOVE the Live system because I know that the systems are unmodded and the glitches are kept to a min (and usually patched very quickly). Half the fun of the 360/Live system is battling with friends on your gamer score, achievments and various other in game scores.
It is interesting that they say pirated games cost the industry $3 billion a year. Since most systems, I mean Microsoft, is pretty good about blocking online play (or online connection) of modded systems and copied games, they can not claim that as a loss. *If* I download a game today, I am fairly confident that A) my system will be banned B) the game will not work online.
So really, Microsoft is doing pretty good about creating a system that is always online. If a few years from now your console HAS to be online, the copied games industry will shrink even more. Sure, people will be able to change the packets, blah blah blah, but where we stand today compared to 4 years ago the software companies are far better off.
So I will pretend AllofMP3 is selling "used CDs" (used music). If a used CD can be resold countless times with the label/artist seeing $0, this would be no different than me "buying" the music from a Russian based "used music" "retailer".
4. Dell corporate email - As of December 2006, everybody (save Michael Dell) working for Dell U.S. has the same form of email address: firstname_lastname@dell.com. Michael Dell's does not follow this pattern and is changed immediately whenever the current one is discovered by lower-level employees or the public.
Interesting. Why would a company shield certain email addresses from others? I work at a fortune 500 pharmacutical company and any employee or contractor can see any email address, all the way to the CEO.

Or they are the ones with 500 new messages in their inbox and never once mark all as read.
On top of that, all of the DL info is stored in plain text on the barcode. When the new Michigan DLs were rolled out many years ago, I swipped one through my works computer credit card reader to see what would happen - the system entered all my DL info into the CC number field (DL#, DOB, Name, etc).
In addition to the tool bar being moved up to the top left, why is there no way to filter out the news, video, etc?
I just tried searching for "halo 3 beta" to get some info on it and a lot of blog and news results were being displayed inline. At times, I would like to just search the web with the ranked results, not the additional fluff. "-news" seemed to not remove the news article from being displayed first.
In today's society of "ooh.. it's not my fault.." somebody needs to take the initiative to make the people responsible for the problem responsible and those people are the OWNERS of the pwned machines.
So if my PC gets hacked, it is my fault. But if I hack CD/DVD encryption, it is still my fault?
If we are going with the attitude of PC owners need to take responsibility, then I want to see RIAA take responsibility and "path" their CDs (not likely to happen of course).
Can't be true... I would have got an email telling me if it was...... You laugh, but I received an email from my work's NOC stating that there was a BlackBerry/RIM outage.
Come on, while VoIP concepts may have been discussed, it's quite clear that nobody would have thought of implementing them on the internet. Then I would like to join the Vonage WAN
I did the following:
-clicked the "1 click" button
-confirmed my order (2nd click)
-confirmed my credit card (3rd click)
-confirmed my address (4th click)
-confirmed that I did actually want the item, again (5th click)
I'm not a doormat. The work I do is 90% managed by.....myself. The work I do though is important to others and the BlackBerry helps ME more than it helps others.
I don't about the rest of you, but the couple emails I reply to, off the clock every day, give me that extra ounce of job security. I have pretty much created the "oh shit, what are we going to do if we fire him" factor for myself by replying to emails at all times of day.
Even still, having it at work makes me fully accessable during my actual on the clock hours. But, if I reply to an email here and there off the clock, that is more free time x2 the next day.
In other news, Nextel acquitted on accusations of crippling BT data speeds. The Judge replied, "Simply, they do not offer data over BT. I could not rule them guilty over something they do not offer".
Nextel was over more than happy with this ruling and stated they will continue to not offer many other services.

A quick check of some main email websites and none of them are secure after you log in. Shame on them also?

Troll? Not really since his real last name can actually spell Pornstar.
Just games?
What about:
-video editing
-multi screen programing
-DVR/PVR/media centers
-Integrated house control systems
-photo/multimedia design and editing
Should I go on?
It's a good thing my work has implimented web filtering content which filtered out the cache website.
Grrr...

I did have a blog cluster in the results, it was 3 lines - maybe it was removed or disabled - but I did see it.
Also, in addition to the news cluster, I took any result with a time/date stamp next to it to be a news result.

there is a limit of 10 computers that can see each other and communicate using Microsoft Windows Neighborhood, even in Vista Pro or Ultimate version.
I am hoping this is just for the Neighborhood program and not what can actually happen. Many LAN party participants may be unhappy.
