Old news...
2005? Man you HAVE been under a rock haven't you? Hacker? Sigh...ok here's some coaching for you the next time you want to front.
1. - "Hackers" don't call themselves hackers, poseurs call themselves hackers. (and anyone reading this saying "but I'M a hacker.." guess wha? YOU r a poseur.)
2. - Web 2.0 is just another BUZZWORD. Like AJAX, LAMP and (gasp) blog. Duh, it's the web dummy, it's made of ALL KINDS OF TECHNOLOGIES.
3. - PHOTOSHOP over the web? Not for a LONG time buddy, IF EVER. Oh wait, lemme guess: "The network IS the computer" right? When will you hypemasters get the drift that not EVERY app is right for a BROWSER? Let me put this nice and easy for you, SOME APPS WILL GO TOTALLY WEB, MOST WON'T. You can't whittle every peg to fit your web-hole...you webhole.
4. - Google became BMOC BEFORE their IPO. If you were any good as a venture capitalist you would have seen that.
5. - SURPRISED to see lamers running windows? What, did you think they would be running Linux (sorry, GNU)? Not everyone wants to spend the $$ for a Mac. (Disclaimer: I do.)
C'mon man, smarten up. Oh, and yeah, IBM lost it's monopoly WAAAAY B4 2005. I think it was called OS2...maybe they should have hired a rock band...anyone have one of those Win95 discs with Weezer on it?
You were right about one thing. This is OLD NEWS. Dumbass.
