Here's one from my wife (native Californian female):
Hey, it's me. I just cannot. I about bye bye do hanging in there. Later has hey, if you're gonna you know I love you bye bye.
Still not so good.
I don't understand... isn't that just how California girls talk?
3. I dislike SMS messages because, again, I don't like having to have my telephone permanently anchored to my body. Google Voice allows me to filter and deliver SMS messages as if they were E-mails and to respond to them as such. SMS messages never hit my phone.
Google Voice sucks at SMS, and MMS is simply dropped. For you, that apparently seems to be considered a feature. For most people, though, it's not. I don't know if you've noticed, but SMS/MMS is how most people seem to communicate nowadays.
Yeah, Google Voice is really a poorly designed service with a lot of problems. I tried using it as my main number for a while; but without even some basic functionality like MMS (which even the crappiest feature phones have supported for years) it's just too crippled.
That omission still floors me. Google bought GrandCentral in 2007 - how can it still not include MMS?
At first, I thought the title was "New Linux Found Between Bacteria and Cancer".
There are all sorts of iGoogle replacements. Just to name a few...
And all your traffic is filtered and reported directly to the NSA at lightening speed!
That's better than darkening speed, at least...
Worry not people, the KC metro area is not that great a place to be. Yeah it seems better if they were in your neighborhood.
Remember they are getting version 1.0 of the service, you will get the upgraded version.
But everything's up to date in Kansas City - They've gone about as far as they can go!
fired, from a cannon
Into the sun.
Aggressive tax incentives and a central location to bridge the distance between these companies' east and west coast server footprints.
The first part is really all that mattered to them.
Come on, "bridging the distance" between the west and east coasts? We all know how fast light travels...
Thank you, Miracle Max!
There are currently 92,000 apps in the Windows store, and it's growing at an average rate of 591 apps per day. Using Apple's latest figures (from WWDC) for the iPad, the iPad appstore is growing at an average of 435 apps per day. This also includes some double counting for "free" and "paid" versions, which the Windows app store bundles into one app.
It's funny how you apparently think that shines a positive light on the situation.
The iOS App Store has existed how long? And how many apps are on it? If the Windows Apps store were doing well, at this early point in its existence you'd hope the number of apps would be increasing an order of magnitude faster than that.
It's probably all just empty posturing; but these companies know the recent revelations regarding the US government's reckless behavior has the potential to single-handedly kill their nascent cloud businesses.
And, perversely, that may be our only hope. Congress will cow-tow to big businesses a lot more readily than it will listen to the citizens they purport to represent. If it's a danger to profits, they may slam on the brakes.
After all, we saw how quickly the iTunes Store withered and died after the DRM got removed from all that music. It'd be crazy for the publishers NOT to double down on DRM!
He's gotta cover those mortgage payments for Lanai somehow...
Yes because as we've seen in business, the higher ups never choose their own personal devices and then expect their IT folks to make them work with the company infrastructure. No, I sure don't read those sorts of stories every week.
