General Software Discussion / Re: Are free web hosting services legit?
« Last post by mouser on June 12, 2006, 07:41 AM »
im sure people will know better than me, but my understanding tends to be like this:
1) yes, they are "legit"
but
2) they are usually designed to show ads and so
3) they dont want people just downloading files from your site without visiting it and seeing ads, so
4) they will only allow downloads from the actual page, not let you just link to the files from offiste, and
5) they have limits on bandwidth and size of files, etc.

right now, im copying the entire table, then having to manually go through and edit it to get the data i want - big pain.

WorldCup Predictor / What WCP is advising Sunday June 11
« Last post by mouser on June 11, 2006, 05:07 AM »
I seem to be the only person interested in this tool  :huh: but i'll just talk to myself here anyway.

But I thought that i would post a little screenshot of the simulation this morning (sunday June 11 before any games played), and where it advises putting your money.

The red numbers at the right are bets that have "expected" positive payoff (bets which in the longrun would be profitable).

So at this point, the program would advise putting money on Portugal, Germany, Spain, France (in order).

Caveat: I don't advise gambling - this is just for fun!

Very interesting article - the issues involving adsense (which we use on this site) are heating up..  Definitely worth a read.

How Google Is Killing the Internet
By Seth Jayson (TMF Bent)
June 9, 2006

It's nothing, I'm sure. No really, I mean it. It's just that, well, I noticed that Google (Nasdaq: GOOG) insiders are continuing to drop shares on the public at a rate that boggles the mind. Here's just a brief peek at the latest tallies.

I bring it up only because I occasionally entertain the thought that Google has, in fact, destroyed the Internet. Well, not the physical Internet, mind you. Just the whole "looking for data" part of it that's key to Google's (alleged) information-based mission. The part that's held the key (so far) to its financial success.

Any of you try searching lately? Notice the astounding lack of quality across the board, even at revamped competitors like Yahoo! (Nasdaq: YHOO) and IAC/InterActiveCorp's (Nasdaq: IACI) Ask.com? I feel your pain. I, too, have spent hours stuck in the revolving door of link farms, splogs, and scraper sites. These sites look like they contain content, but when you see the results page, often it's not there (because of tricks like keyword stuffing and cloaking). If it is there, it's often recycled material from other providers, compiled by an automated process.

The jokers who create these sites have one goal: Trying to get you to click on a Google AdSense link.

Living Room / SourceForge - wtf - now it's harder to download??
« Last post by mouser on June 11, 2006, 03:37 AM »
from nice blog entry.
this is getting ridiculous from sourceforge..

..
As I was jumping through the usual hoops required to download a file from sourceforge.net, I stumbled upon a new hoop they put in. Apparently the kind folks over at sourceforge decided it would be a good idea to change the download link into a javascript function that submitted a hidden form. Why they did this, I doubt we’ll ever know, but it really makes using the site much more difficult.

great points javajones -
wouldn't it be fascinating to listen in on some of the marketing debates about these issues at the high level of apple, nintendo, etc. really would be interesting to hear the different arguments and see the data they have for or against these decisions.

from the second link, repeating it here since it's hard to find:


Screen Launcher
http://www.bartdart.com/
Screen Launcher lets you choose any program to run as a screensaver. You could start a Powerpoint, a movie or any EXE or associated file. To install, simply unzip, right-click and click Install on the context menu. You can then use Screen Launcher just like any other screensaver. To open files such as Powerpoint presentations, you must execute the powerpoint program and type the path to your ppt as a parameter. An example for displaying an image would be c:\winnt\system32\mspaint.exe c:\picture.bmp. Download today to take advantage of any media as a screensaver.



xCAT - Program Saver v1.10
http://www.xcat-indu...info.php?software=31
This program enables you to run any program if you are not using you computer. Compare it to an screensaver, that only runs when are not using your computer asswell, as soon as your computer is idle for a certain time this program will start a program you specify.

a bookmark functionality is something we are planning to add...
