Look! This is my link!
MeFite B: This is nice
MeFite A:
sorry, double, delete

What's the story behind the "GoToMyPC" ads on the MeFi front page?
Even for the logged-in.
I notice they are the only advertiser for that spot and that
it appears for the non-members in the same place.
Is this a big new advertising deal for you, Matt, or is it a template issue? Are we being sold to again, and if so, why?
(don't know if this should be in "MeFi-related" or "etiquette/policy")

Do you suffer from mobile telephone calls at inopportune times? Could you use a cute
PA to take calls for you while gaming, or asleep? A dissertation project from MIT by
HCI specialist
Stefan Marti may have your solution:
Cellular Squirrel.
Of course you will always want to talk to people who are
thinking the same things as you, so Cellular Squirrel
waves and moves about rather than making a sound. His oddly bulbous figure makes use of
"socially strong non-verbal cues like gaze, posture, and gestures, to alert and interact with the user" rather than intrusive alerts in order to minimise user stress and social disruption.
Cellular intermediaries also come in two other flavours: "a parrot and a cute bunny"

How do I discover all of the domain names registered to a given party? Not "who owns this domain?" but "what domains does this party own?"

Why do the paints used on DynoRod vans, for example, have such luminosity?

My machine has a DVD writer, my girlfriend's iMac has a DVD reader.
Is there a piece of software which will allow me to burn a bootable DVD in Mac format?
