No, MS Word prevents them that.

MPEG-LA has ius prima noctis?

If everybody needed only appliances, who could become a developer? Even Jobs had to have a hacker on his hands to succeed. Now he tries to keep them as far as possible. Passion and marketing can do only so much... What we are witnessing now is an inflation of trademark.

Me too. The "Games for Windows" tag should be the other way around anyway. And nothing else.

It seems that Google is in some kind of a hurry and tries to catch-up with Twitter and Facebook using Gmail (quite aggressively) as a leverage. It seems that they didn't ponder a lot about social consequences of their move.

... and they wan't their focus back. I can multitask e-mail, phone/SMS, 3 IM chats at a time while watching TV and at the end of the day I can't really remember is a blur (I born in the '80s). I'm trying to scale back on all this distractions by having a call whitelist on my cell phone which is also muted most of the time (SMS is actually better for managing distraction), my e-mail client checks for e-mail every hour or two (or I just leave it closed and open it once or twice a day).

A "multi" prefix doesn't necessarily make tasking better. It's mostly hype if you ask me.

Would it be possible to use DMCA to force people pull down pics with your face on them?
