I have been uing Ubuntu from I guess 7.4 onwards (not sure some 3-4 yrs back) and this was because windows XP was slow on my old Pentium 3 512 MB m/c. and I was gung ho about Ubuntu. A year back i got myself a dual core AMD dell net/notebook with 2GB ram and windows 7 starter.My orginal plan was not to spend money on buying windows Home basic or premium but to install ubuntu.With wubi I did the dual install and also now upgraded to the latest with Unity desktop.Over this one year how ever I have found windows 7 starter with the free windows live software and media software a much better option than ubunut. Also the autos sync using windows live mesh with 5 gb storage is I felt much better than ubuntu one. I feel a little built guilty saying it since I had only ubuntu to rely on my old comp; but now the truth is that somewhere ubuntu is showing as lacking, though yes it is slighlty faster.Unity is good though a bit strange to get used to.

The whole idea of search is that you search when you have no idea where to find something; A more semantic web will enable lesser emphasis on searching;Out of the millions of web sites out there, I guess it is really a handful that is commonly used.This was what I thought first; anything over hyped gives me a negative feeling. Especially over such a basic as search; What more can one expect. But I guess the truth is that keyword search is here to stay forever and is pretty valuable;Especially in the medical field, you search a medical term and other than the popular stuff the search can throw up what a veteran doctor who thinks otherwise in some corner of the world has noted down in an obscure blog. Such information is priceless.Yes internet has become more an internet of chatter and media storage hub;But information too is present and keywords are the only tag that can collate these.I would not care about voice if I am able to type.The wolfarmalpha model might be intelligent, but it takes time and maybe a human can do the job better...
