   I don't get anything for that result. Or "Los Angeles tides" or "Santa Monica tides." If I just put in "tides", it'll give me a dropdown where I can select a station -- I'm assuming the station that reports tides -- but after clicking a sta

   Pretty sure it's because you wrote "M$", not what you said about G¢¢gle.

   I currently sync my music to my Pre via iTunes. All of my music is tied up in it, so it's convenient. I didn't think it would last, but I can hold off on an iTunes upgrade until Palm patches. Ad nauseum, I'm sure.

    Fortunately for Woz, he probably didn't have all the hype in the world surrounding his product. Wolfrom might be an interesting experiment, but all of the Google-killer talk might make it into more of a Cuil.

    I'm completely underwhelmed. Chalk it up to hype I guess. I couldn't get anything for "Most popular names in 2008," and when I clicked the "Examples" tab and clicked Socioeconomic Data->Countries and used its default of France, it gave

    I forget the exact numbers now, but I called them about it for my college paper and the numbers seemed pretty astronomical (at least, to a college student like myself) for a CMS. I was quoted an amount in the tens of thousands to license th

    So you're not really going cold turkey at all. You're just shucking traditional forms (ie, TV and print) and getting your news second-hand from blogs (well, depending on the blogs you read, anyway).

    I really like this. Offline browsing for a full 7 days, video and even a crossword puzzle? That's a pretty good bridge between Web-only reading and traditional newspapers. This app could really take off if they promote it right. At the very

    I liked this guy's post on the education bubble, but this one seems like he's grasping at straws. All he's proven is that people Google terms a lot more often when they need to sound like experts on the subject. Brilliant!

    I think you're missing the point. I'm not saying we're more or less intelligent or capable than the last generation, nor am I blaming them for things like IPv4 (I mean really, it sure sounded like enough address). We grew up with differen

    That's kind of a bullshit question. Of course we could. We don't need to re-invent Internet protocols (beyond fixing the mistakes of the previous generation -- IPv4 and DNS flaws, anyone?) at this point though. Right now, it's more profitab
