in What can't you do in a browser? on trephine.org
It's 2009, the browser chews up more RAM than MS Word, yet I can't paste a picture into FCKEditor and have it saved into the cloud.

in How Does One Explain SQL Injection to a Non-Techie? on dmiessler.com | grep understanding

Tell them it's like Bart Simpson making a prank call to Moe's


Bart: (with Lisa) Is Mister Freely there?
Moe: Who?
Bart: Freely, first initials I. P.
Moe: Hold on, I'll check. Uh, is I. P. Freely here? Hey everybody, I. P. Freely!
[the customers laugh] Wait a minute... Listen to me you lousy bum. When I get a hold of you, you're dead. I swear I'm gonna slice your heart in half.


Moe should have checked that he is not going to say something unintended. In fact, most website defacement exploit's Barts trick against Moe the Webmaster.

in The first Microsoft Seinfeld ad on VentureBeat
It's quite good. A cross between British and Japanese humour.

Whereisaron I think this is a hoax and they are successful to make it like it is. Well done.
Bill G Oh yes - that famous blend of Jap and Brit humour.
If you mean that British humour is sureal and Japanese humour seems to involve lots of pain then you are spot on. This ad has launched a new genre of comedy - BritJap...no..JapBrit...hmm..Jit..almost there...YES - it is completely JIT just like vista.

in Open Social : The FaceBook Killer? on Vinny Lingham's Blog
The loser is actually Microsoft, who has been trying to persuade users to come back to Windows, which used to be a platform, if anyone remembers. Windows was supplanted by the browser, and now giant APIs which use HTML and javascript. This is going to make it even harder for rich client apps to gain traction.

in Time to Rethink Mobile Marketing? on Marketing Pilgrim
It's not so much that ads on mobile devices are annoying but it takes so much effort to ignore. You virtually have to manually delete it. Would be much better if mobile devices automatically expire ads when you move out of range, or after a minute or two.

in Warner Bros says “No More Female Lead Characters”?! on /Film
It doesn't mean that movies with female leads shouldn't be made. It means that WB shouldn't be producing movies with female leads. They should just stick to rabbits and little black ducks.

in The *Ultimate* Response to “Do You Accept Jesus as Your Personal Savior?” on dmiessler.com | grep understanding
It's probably more polite to summarize your arguments on the blog and ask them to read it there.

If you add some Google ads, you might even make some money.

If somebody clicked on a Google ad everytime they try to convert you, you'd be a Googlionaire.

in The Bible Is Fiction: A Collection Of Evidence on danielmiessler.com | grep understanding
The link between traitors in Buddhism and Christianity is a rather long shot. I mean stories about traitors are always in the news. One day it's a Chinese American who passed on secretes, another day it's a black sheep of a family who shames himselfs and harms others, at other times you have politicians who challenge their party leaders. C'mon, having traitors in tales is pretty common.

in Research Assistant Required - The Search Wars on Vinny Lingham's Blog
No where is it more apt to repeat the mantra "Think Global, Act Local". In the overall pyramid of businesses, there are not that many which are global brands that could benefit from a world wide audience.

Case in point is a second-tier search advertising engine, where a recent commentator said that he was getting tonnes of CPC traffic from Korea, non which converted.

In any case, Google groks advertisers, and has been giving away conversion tracking tools to help advertisers fine tune their pitches.

in ICustomFormatter and the ToString( IFormatProvider ) method of Enum on Huddled Masses
You are out of luck.
Decompiling using reflector for Enum type:

public string ToString(string format)
