   Review - Update Notifier

   1.1.3.107 (Dec 20, 2008)

   I'm not the kind of person that would typically use a too like this, but on a whim I downloaded/installed this. It works great! It found updates to a lot of software I had sitting on my machine, including more obscure programs (Notepad++, Opera, Pidgin, MediaCoder, 7-Zip, etc). Saves me a lot of time having to search for updates myself. Great job guys.

   Review - Outlook on the Desktop

   1.4.5 (Aug 22, 2008)

   This program didn't seem to show a calendar on my XP Professional SP3 desktop when I first installed/ran it, even when I confirmed it was running in the background (I also saw that Outlook 2007 was running in the background, which was somewhat of a good sign). There is no debugging output and no help file, so I was stuck for a bit (I understand the lack of these two things, by the way - those are the last things a developer wants to add in a beta). Eventually I noticed there was a icon in the system tray. I clicked on it, got a .NET exception, and the calendar popped up!
   
   In spite of that initial but daunting roadblock, this seems like a great app. I have no other complaints. I have a feeling this will become very popular as it's incredibly useful.
   
   Here's the exception text -

   Just throw in some more try{} and catch{} statements (= Regardless whether I caused the exception by doing something weird, they should be handled appropriately.

   "Religion is evil"
   
   I'm curious - what standard are you using to define your interpretation of "evil" on? If you're defining what is right and what is wrong yourself, it would appear as if you're the victim of being subject to a subjective morality, which is in itself a oxymoron and an utter farce. "It is no morality at all; it is a mere game. If I (or we) make rules, I (or we) can change them. If I tie myself up, I am not really bound. And a nonbinding morality is not morality, only some "good ideas". It has no laws, nothing with teeth in it; only "values": soft, squooshy things that feel like teddy bears.".
   
   Your kind of mentality is exactly why society in general is "more violent, dishonest, crude, selfish and superficial".

7. Comment - Custom 404 pages from Google Toolbar beta cause a stir

   1.4.5 (Feb 12, 2008 - 5:44 PM)

   I fail to see why a setting that the user has to activate willingly and that will only be experience on rare occasions given that it is even activated is generating a "stir".
   
   If the user installs the Google toolbar, they are subject to whatever features Google wishes to impose on them, but obviously this is bounded by according to the toolbar's privacy policy. Google took the safer route and made this an optional feature, so I don't see the big deal.
   
   Sure, it's obviously Google trying to horizontally monopolize the search engine market completely in small and insidious ways, but in a relative sense this is a non-issue.

9. Comment - Researcher: US Gov't Editing Wikipedia Entries

   1.4.5 (Aug 20, 2007 - 12:27 AM)

   Except that the government is editing a completely open content user generated extensible cross continental encyclopedia, not completely banning even the thought of such a concept.
