Wow, I had two people tell me today that they loved my site. It makes one feel
all bubbly inside. Or maybe that's just the result of drinking too much Pepsi.
The world may never know.
At the urging of a friend of mine, I'm putting up this mp3 of me giving a short yell. He thought it was
really funny, and well, it certaintly is disturbing. It's the result of a hoarse
voice with a stuffy nose. I claim no responsibility for any adverse
reactions.
Someone finally came up with a nice good arguement with what
to do with the Microsoft anti-trust settlement. Instead of dividing up the
company (to form 3 new monopolies) or fining them (and MS would still have
several billion left over), make them open
up all the API's. API's are what programs use to interact with Windows, and
while Microsoft releases some of them (so that programs can work on Windows)
it's a pretty commonly known fact that MS keeps some to themselves. So what this
author suggets is to make Microsoft open up how to make Office documents, or tie
as deeply into Windows as IE does. He points out the incredible advancements due
to the Intel vs. AMD chip race, and the possiblities if that could happen to
software development. Imagine being able to buy competing Office suit products,
that produced Word/Excel/Powerpoint/etc documents just like the Microsoft
version, but the software is not Microsofts. Or an operating system that was
able to run all of Window's programs, but was far more secure and reliable. of
course, some are saying lack of
security may be the downfall of Microsoft, but I dont' think something that
drastic will happen. But it's never good when a company only treats security
problems as PR problems.
Could Punxsutawney Phil be the next terrorist target? Me thinks the town just wanted to get
some free publicity, but letting Phil die would be letting the terrorist win.
Then who knows what groundhog would be next?!?!
Song of the Moment is updated for the first time in
probably 6 months with Christina Milian - AM to PM (Hex Hector Club Mix). That was quite a moment. And it MUST be the Hex
Hector remix, cause the original song is terrible.
