So I've just bought a brand new all singing all dancing computer, with a 19" flat screen & it's out of date before I've even fired it up!!!

DOH!

I wish I could see it. I guess I'm blocked.

I'm waiting for threads to turn into actual chat rooms where we can use our XBOX360 head sets and tin foil hats.

I can't see it either. Does that mean it's a issue with my company's server blocking streaming video? Or something?

Also, why am I able to see some posted pictures, but others don't load?

Sorry for being super off topic, Xbr's comment made me think....

Nautique,
It's probably a local block on your browser. If you're at work then IT can see every time you click on the blank trying to get it to activate.

One of the companies we supply to here use embedded video in their training and support pages, and I can't see those either even though they're directly work related. All or nothing.

Posted pictures could be the way that their linked. You can right-click on the red-x where the pic should be and see if it has a badweatherbikers.com address or is imagelinked elsewhere such as whosyourdaddy.net.

Think of the pornographic implications!

Saw it a while back... Too bad MS snapped it up but I assumed they would as soon as I saw it.

Such is life.

None better than MS to actually make it happen.

Jay,
If I recall, won't you have a place in that landscape, and related to Buell motorcycles no less? joker

Wonder what implications this will have to copyright protections and subsequent abuse litigations.

The internet, the worldwideweb, the collective virtual reality 3-D spacially linked together and fed into a small handheld device or symbiotic eyecam of some sort. Imagine....

Hey! I'm planning on using that as a major integral part of my campaign when I run for office!

I'll be calling it the "Look...No Secrets!" campaign...

Here's a hypothetical situation for you to consider:

You post a picture of you on a recent vacation.

Yearbook.com links to that picture to your highschool photo,

which is then linked to one drunk night way back in college when you made some bad decisions with witnesses around,

the really fat girl who was on top of you has her face visible and that image is then linked to an arrest warrant in South Dakota,

that fat girl goes into a 7-11 to buy (yep, you guessed it - food) and her image is recorded by the store's cam,

which is then linked to 7/11 (your mom's birthday is July Eleventh) and she's checking to see if she can get restaurant reservations at her favorite place for her birthday party with everyone in your family on a shared-websurfing adventure!

If Al Gore created the internet, does this mean I can sue him for exposing my mother to this psychological scarring?

Unless technology can help me go faster, it's just slowing me down.

Don't get to wound up, this internet thing isn't going to last. It's just a fad.
