Believe it or not, searching for something in Google Desktop can take more than a minute on my computer. It just isn't worth it when another service is far faster and I'm always online.
When I have something interesting to paste or write down, and am too lazy to start up my text editor, I use Google Notebook.
The disadvantage of the text editor is that I can only rarely remember what I named a file if I was in a hurry. The notebook lets me search and even preserve markup and images. Basically, Google Notebook is the text editor for the Lazy.
There are various technologies that use a combination of screens and glasses to create a stereoscopic 3d effect. They're pretty cool.
Most prevalent is some form of polarization; either building the screen to display two differently polarized pictures (filtered by the glasses) or rapidly switching between two images while alternating the polarization of the glasses synchronously. And then, of course, there's the age-old trick of mixing stereoscopic images in two different color channels and filtering them with red-green/blue glasses. Monochromatic, but very cheap.
This summary is using a flawed argument. The invasion of Poland may have started the War officially, but it was no more than the logical consequence of the past six years of national socialist rule in Germany. Hitler did not come to power by military power (in fact, he tried and failed to do so in 1923); he was elected by people who were disillusioned, ignorant, dirt-poor thanks to the Depression and the first World War, and desperate for someone to "lead them to greatness".
This, in turn, would have been prevented by free access to information and communication. After the war, people claimed they had never known about the millions of people killed in concentration camps - with Google Earth, IRC and social networks, they would have.

But it is particularly important to use this font on the screen, because all that black takes more electricity!!
[ :P ]
It took them this long to be sure that international attention had died down sufficiently.

This would also be an excellent deterrent against asking stupid tech support questions.
Can he do that? It sounded like an offer that can't be refused...
I use Google Desktop.
I also use Google Notebook.

> But why would you want to get the same tool from Microsoft?
I wouldn't. Who said I would? I was answering the question of whether and why I use a Notebook service.

Most people.
But Windows will ultimately cost more to maintain, even if it seems cheaper... now... oh wait...
I think the desktop would be less overwhelming because there is not as much action...
But you definitely can't count on it being less bad just because the screen isn't as big as that of a movie theater - refer to Mirror's Edge.

It's not fossilized, it just belongs to a [$PROFESSION|$POLITICAL_PARTY].
The name Cingular ring a bell? They didn't succeed either.
As well as the acronym "STFU" and the expletive "retard".
Note: I'm actually pro-choice. I just fail to see the analogy.
Now, contraception vs. anonymity might be a better one. Both measures are prophylactic. :P

If you have an abortion, you avoid the serious consequences of a momentary irresponsible act, because sex did not lead to a baby.
If you post anonymously, you do the same, because criticizing the government of China did not lead to a jail cell.
It's time to take responsibility for your actions: Speak your mind, do the time.
It's the mother of all core dumps!
A word of advice: If you wake any squid-headed star-spawned monstrosity deep beneath the mountains of madness, run.
I took my first steps around computers with Logo (as well as MicroWorlds, which uses a variant of it).

Will websites be able to take advantage of these parallel Javascript threads while remaining cross-browser-compatible, is what I'd like to know...

Naturally. How are they supposed to learn to outwit censorship and care about privacy if they take it all for granted?
