16:10 is the best ratio, its the golden rectangle. It may not sound like much different than 19:9 but those extra pixels make a lot of difference both in portrait and landscape.
16:10 used to be common, and with much higher resolutions, but the race to the bottom changed all that and even cutting a few lines of pixels saved OEMs money. Then 16:9 was marketed as the ratio perfect for watching movies, even thought that’s BS since movies are not 16:9 so there is still black space on the screen.

I use IE10 metro on the surface and kept Bing as the search engine, both work well but on the desktop and laptop I use Firefox with Google as the search engine.
I also use a Microsoft arc keyboard and a Microsoft touch mouse on my desktop if these count as part of the ecosystem -

no, tv.com was part of cnet for years. When NBC and Fox formed hulu, tv.com had a deal to show hulu videos (same as AOL, MSN, Yahoo etc)
CBS bought tv.com along with all the other sites of cnet, and turned it into a video portal. Under the deal tv.com had with hulu it could show hulu shows, and along with all the CBS shows it could become a better video portal than hulu, so hulu canceled the deal.
After all these happened Disney/ABC bought into hulu and made it 3 against 1.

It’s like X wasn’t given enough to do, so they had to promise it more. OK, you don’t start a lot of words, but we’ll give you a co-starring role in tic-tac-toe. And you will be associated with hugs and kisses. And you will mark the spot. And you will make writing Christmas easier. And incidentally, you will start xylophone. Are you happy, you fucking X?!

Point 5, what does Hulu have to do with TV.com?
Hulu is owned by ABC, NBC, and Fox, TV.com is owned by CBS

OpenStreetMaps needs to start providing end user features to make people participate. Routing services on their desktop website, details on the POI, and mobile applications with the same features would be a good start.
Contributing to OSM so that OSM can provide geographic data and APIs to 3rd party developers to use as backend for their applications, that they will make available as either free or paid makes me feel like I don’t see a return of my contributions.

For songs with lyrics I find that just googling a sentence with the word lyrics will find the song much faster than using shazam or any other music identifying service

Its expensive because its for professionals.
Methods for getting the software aside, using photoshop for simple “regular user” tasks is like using a tank to kill flies, for most users, a simple photo editor would be enough, Photoshop Touch is capable to cover that need and it runs on ARM hardware (iOS and Android)

- photoshop (it’s a common tool)
It shouldn’t be. It has a price tag of $700. Its for professionals

If Spies Like Us has taught us anything is that trying to shoot things in orbit using a laser will end up destroying the MTV satellite causing TVs showing MTV to explode. Though with the MTV’s current programming that could be a good thing.

hm… I thought of the year in roman numerals, the way copyright years are written for movies and tv shows, and the colors made me think of a TV so I thought it could be TV/Home entertainment related.
Plus its timing, a day before E3 where Microsoft and Sony will be showing their new consoles/home entertainment systems. Apple can do the same thing it did at CES 2007 were everyone was talking about them without them even being there.

“Hey, a lot of people like that Zombieland movie and that Walking Dead show. We should totally make a zombie show! Let’s see if we can get the guys who made the movie to make it into a TV show!” That’s presumably how Zombieland, the TV show, happened
The guys who made the movie, started Zombieland as a tv series, thats why the movie had the kill of the week, that was going to be a recurring thing on the series. They were partial to a zombieland tv series since the movie was released.
I think the series biggest problem is that it picks up were the movie left off. Anyone trying to recreate Woody Harrelson’s Tallahassee would come up short. They should have made up 4 new characters and have them in a different storyline within the same universe.
