Nice idea indeed. More OS freedom is always better!

No religion has more proof than any other religion to back up their claims about them being 'right' and other religions being 'wrong'. This is why it makes me crack up when statements such as the above are made.

It's all fairy tales, just different styles.

An RPN calculator doesn't need parenthesis! It's genius!

Holy crap man you're taking things to a whole new level here by 'apologizing' for spamming while yet again spamming your stupid Twitter clone that obviously nobody is ever going to use...

It's not hard to make stuff work right in IE7. IE6 is a lot more of a bitch though. However I think by now it's acceptable to treat IE6 as a 'C grade browser' and present visitors using IE6 with a trimmed down experience and a friendly note that they may want to upgrade to a newer browser in order to get the full experience.

Damn... a little more than three years left for me and I'll be 'ejaculating powder'... at least according to this anonymous expert :(

Re: What is the problem with Tumblarity?

marcovhv — Fri, 08 May 2009 11:23:43 -0000

I honestly don't think it will happen. The reason is that Tumblr is a social thing. It will be blatantly obvious when someone is doing things just for the sake of being 'popular' which will result in that someone getting unfollowed, achieving the exact opposite.

Thing is, Tumblarity has always been there. There has always been a ranked list! It's just that Tumblr has now decided to actually show bits of that list. The fact that this all of a sudden makes people throw a fit is beyond me. "Move along, nothing to see here!" is how I feel about it.

I'd love to see the Tumblr top 100 which is the only thing we can't see at the moment...

Re: Can MySpace Make a Comeback?

marcovhv — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 04:07:07 -0000

Myspace can most DEFINITELY make a comeback. In fact they seem to be going for it already, even before the new CEO. You can do amazing stuff with Profile 2.0. You can make profiles look perfect now, very much unlike the way it used to be. Take a look at my profile and another one I created and I'm pretty sure a lot of people will be surprised and think: "WTF?! is this MySpace?".

The MySpace Local service they recently launched looks promising as well. Overall the whole site is way faster than it used to be and the interface has improved a whole lot. I believe it can still be improved enormously but they're definitely on the right track in my opinion.

And people, don't forget: MySpace is MAKING MONEY. Very much unlike Facebook.

I can't wait to see what the new CEO is gonna do. Hopefully kick Facebook's ass because I'm beyond bored AND annoyed with Facebook.

Except for those who paid for Twitterrific? :P

Besides, you don't have to pay for either one of them if you don't mind the occasional ad shown in the stream.

Re: The Fastest Growing Social Sites

marcovhv — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 17:40:52 -0000

The only reason Facebook is so big seems to be that people sign up because they feel 'they HAVE to' because all of their friends are on it. This is the only reason I hear from people anyway. Don't know many people who actually like it...

I guess Facebook is becoming the Microsoft of social networks. Everyone uses it. Because they 'have to'.

MySpace's new Profile 2.0 rocks when you're know what you're doing. It now allows great customization very similar to virb.com and tumblr.com. I built two profiles in the past week and I found it easy to make things look very nice.

What WOULD be nice however is an option like Virb has (or used to have, not sure if they kept it in 2.0) to 'remove customization'. This option shows the profile 'facebook style'. Nice, minimalist and clean. This feature would make both customization freaks (the pretty kind and the ugly kind alike) and 'facebook style'-fans perfectly happy.

I really do think customization is a nice feature for a social network because it allows people to actually express themselves and have an online identity rather than being a grey mouses like on Facebook.

Re: Opinionated - The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most...

marcovhv — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 10:58:40 -0000

I'll surely check it out. However, I've had a Christian upbringing and have therefore read the bible. And... I have to agree with Dawkins that god really isn't a very pleasant character in the old testament.

I for one can't believe that if it turns out I'm wrong by being a 'non believer' that god is such a creep. It makes no sense or whatsoever. It's like a sadist toddler playing with a bowl full of insects really.

marcovhv — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 03:51:04 -0000

Even though Dawkins is an atheist, this isn't about whether god exists or not. It's about what kind of character he is / was.

I think this is a hilarious prank. It's hilarious because it shows what a whiny ass babies a lot of people are, full of vanity and 'look-at-me' bullshit. If some of these people now have made an ass out of themselves: WIN!

People take themselves WAY too seriously these days.

The key to getting nice dates is to not be focused on having dates altogether. At least, that did the trick for me. Not sure if it's different from a female perspective but I think not.
