Farewell, Internet

Damn im disappointed.... i really love reading this site. Any good alternatives recommend? this seems like a pretty unique site, it showed me tons of great software and tips for optimizing my computer use.

Microsoft Office Web Apps available in 150 new countries, worldwide next month

I got a Google CR48 in the mail last week and thought that this would be a perfect site to use. Unfortunately i have already been discouraged after a hour of use and will stick with Google's offerings. The site is slow, the apps are slow, and embarrassingly, when i downloaded a .xlsx file from a email attachment the Excel Web App couldn't open it... but Google Docs could and did it much easier since i can import it straight from the email.

Try again MS, your constant half-baked ideas will be the doom of your once universal monopoly.

App Reviews: Stratego vs. The General

Feb 6th 2011 12:26PM (TUAW.com)
Why did you not go into any detail in this review? Just 4 paragraphs to review both these games?

After reading this i am not convinced at all to buy either one of these games. I bought a Stratego game for a verizon phone a couple years ago that has the same exact features and graphics as the one for iPhone. It was a terrible terrible game because the AI did absolutely nothing. Even fighting against the hardest enemies in the campaign mode was laughably easy. The AI would never make an offensive attack and endlessly move the same piece backwards and forwards.

I am betting this version of Stratego is the same... but after reading there is no way to know.

ADW.Launcher for Android hands on: attractive and highly customizable, but bloated

@EvilH

I would say its bloated. On my droid 2 i find ADW to be slower than the default motoblur launcher (which is already pretty slow itself). The scrolling from homescreen to homescreen is nicer, however opening the app drawer shows how laggy ADW can get. Closing out of other apps will show me just my wallpaper and it will take a few seconds to show ADW.

Launcher Pro and Zeam seem to be better in terms of speed. I used Launcher Pro pretty extensively before and was not happy with its paid features (the widgets are cumbersome and slow) and it got slower and buggier after about 6 weeks. Im going to swtich to Zeam and see if that gives me the best speed.

This is the problem with android... with a 1ghz processor and 256mb of RAM i shouldnt have to find an alternative program that makes my menu run smoothly...

Escaping the corporate or educational firewall, or 'how to play FarmVille from work'

Its perfectly fine for you to use that language. You are not a paid blogger. However you do bring up a good point, i could also not name another blogger on this site.

Anthony's language does make him stand out but i feel like it is still too crude.

I am very disappointed in the low-brow and obscene writing Sebastian Anthony posts on this site. The use of "COCKBLOCKED" and " jacking off to Cam4 " is not necessary in this post. You can get the same message to the reader with a clever euphemism.

I have seen cursing or inappropriate language used in his posts many time. Im no prude, i curse a lot myself. But when I come to a professional site to read news i dont want to see this.

Apple starts tossing sexy iPhone apps out of the App Store

Feb 21st 2010 3:28PM (Download Squad)
On the go Girls is a developer who releases about the same damn app every week. They are all "Sex Girls this" "Hot girls that" bullshit. Thank god apple is removing them from the app store, these developers who release tons of similar apps are taking advantage of customers and that fact that apple approves 50 apps in a row that are all almost the same is ridiculous .
