I guess it's due to the exclamation mark in the middle of the word. If you look for "O!Play" (with the quotes), it works.

The summary links to Grotesque, but what they use in the article is "Square Grotesque", a modified version which is _really_ square and IMHO hard to read (and which apprently quite appreciated by car manufacturers). Concluding every Grotesque font is hard to read is definitely not what the research demonstrated.
The best is to have a look at the paper, which has good examples. A similar font can be found on wikipedia there: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurostile (but I find this one is still slightly easier to read).
Don't start by adding big features to the project. It's the hardest part, and there are many people doing this already. The best is to first concentrate on the quality assurance:
* Look at bug reports, try to reproduce them, add your insights, and maybe even find a fix for them
* Write test cases, that's what is most missing nowadays in open-source projects. It's the best way to ensure that the library will work correctly on every kind of hardware/software combination. Only someone like you who know both about programming and about the domain of the tool (mathematics) can do it right!
The original article can be found here. It has more figures, including some on China, and an interesting remark that Europe in total generates 66GW, which is another way to the per capita computation to moderate this first rank of US...
Which is just not possible. Where is the CD burning program in GNOME that beats K3B?
Brasero, it's there now. I was honestly a fan of K3B, but version 0.9 of Brasero is great. It looks like it has as many features as K3B, but everything is damn simple and clear.
Where is the music player that beats Amarok?
Unfortunately neither Banshee nor Rhythmbox can beat this one. Hopefully, competition will push them to become better!
