Probably still not going to lure me away from Haven & Hearth by the sound of it. Good review though. I am looking for a good MMO to suck me in after I finally quit EVE after 7 years playing, not a bad run.

Infiniy (Infinity Universe, not Infinity Online) looked like it might be good but development seems to have stalled.

Where are all the good MMO's? I thought the internet would be swarming with them by now.

... Beer - Because I just like it ok?

"The twin suns of Soulianis and Rahm ... !"

"Or whatever," said Ford quietly.

"Soulianis and Rahm!" insisted Zaphod.

Bullseye

Perfectly targeted at facebook users like me.

The only reason I have a facebook account is to display my contact details, especially my e-mail, on my facebook profile so that people I know who are into facebook can contact me.

I only ever log in to accept friend requests.

I only ever accept friend requests from people I know so that they will have a way to find my e-mail address which is on my profile.

I suspect I am not the only one who uses facebook in this way.

I bet there are a few people who, having not been notified of this will have not changed their e-mail back, and will miss some very important messages due to this complete wankiness. Facebook really don't give a shit about their users, sorry, victims.

Grrrrr.

Wrong Tool

Service providers cannot be expected to provide a neutral or anonymous service in a marketplace and / or political and technical environment that favours bias and accountability.

It seems like these dissidents, or whatever should be using freenet or something. That is what it is for.

It would still require somebody to post a link to whatever it was on freenet to the WWW in order for it to become available to a huge audience though.

Title, etc

Lewis,

Normally I rate your articles because, they are a breath of fresh air. They are entertaining and reasoned. The off the wall stuff is peppered with wisdom and interesting jump-off-points for googling, and the factual stuff is factual - even if blatantly cherry-picked for fun, and the opinion stuff at least makes it's case in a way I can respect, even if I disagree, which I often don't.

This article is a low point for lacking almost all the above-mentioned good qualities.

Paris, because I wouldn't throw her out of bed for farting, and I am not going to do the same (metaphorically) with you, just because of this fart, you sexy old Lewis Page, you.

The title is required, and must contain letters and/or digits.

'The UK's well-established videogames industry certainly hasn't suffered from this shift away from how we mucked about with computers as lads...."

Yes it has. It really has.

Or were you being sarcastic -- I miss that sometimes.

Farewell

I am sure I am not alone in feeling that a friend I grew up with is gone.

Thanks for all the adventures during the '70s, and the magnificent return.

The universe will always be a better place for having had you you visit for a time.

Farewell.

1984

My first computer was a TRS80. Never had a mac, always an alternative that seemed better.

I have a desktop PC, a laptop, and a phone.

My phone is a normal phone, a sony-erricson w910i, a couple of years old with an 8gb card.

On my phone I have opera mini, an ssh client and a text reader. I bet I can can do anything with it that I could with an iPad, (as long as I can connect to my server with ssh), Plays music great too. Oh and it's a phone.

I was going to by a nexus but then I thought, "why?", I will buy an android phone next, when my current phone dies.

I am not anti-apple, I have stuck with PC's purely because of IBM open architecture and linux, not because I hate apple, but the way apple are going lately I am starting to think that Jobs has gone mad. Really, frothing, twitching, round-the-bend, mad...

You know hoo...

My favourite screensaver - wonder if they run the OS.

Yarr... Cough... gurgle.... Thud!

Mine's the coat, I'm outta here......
