MSN 8 Asks Users to Pay for Some Online Services | |
|
||
| Time: 16:00 EST/21:00 GMT | News Source: Gartner | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||
|
Microsoft's decision to move MSN to a partial for-pay model reasonably extends the trend in which content and application providers seek financial legitimacy by countering the popular mid-1990s assertion that information ("content" is the more common term in 2002) "wants to be free." The precipitous decline in competition among Internet information and interaction hubs makes the for-pay business model more defensible than ever — the critical issue here. | ||

| Can't you cut and paste the code for similar controls (at least, the ones with similar functionality)? |
| #527 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/14/2002 10:58:49 PM |
| There is a fair amount of cutting and pasting that is possible. There is also a pretty healthy amount of search and replace. Still, though, I have to write a lot of stuff by hand, like matching the fields in a typed dataset with the name of the control. It'd be nice if there were a mechanism that new that Application.Name should be assigned to txtApplicantName.Text, but alas...writing the code for the params for the stored proc calls is also bothersome. Oh well... |

| If I can find some decent argument, I think I can take blue this week. If daz releases the next beta of the forums, I could definately do it. |
| #529 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/14/2002 11:03:59 PM |
| Hmm, maybe I should create an ID and fight with myself. Lol! BobJerk? Htims? Or I could do one of my Russian nicknames. Maybe zver and I should fight. Trouble is he and I agree too much, he's just a little more foul mouthed about it than I am. |

| I put my bit in the bucket in the battle against SJ :-) |
| #531 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/14/2002 11:48:09 PM |
| lol |

| Well, now blue and I are at post war. |
| #533 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/15/2002 12:00:20 AM |
| huh? |
| #534 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/15/2002 12:00:35 AM |
| at what? |
| #535 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/15/2002 12:00:46 AM |
| AT WAR!! |

| Nobody can post whore like I can! |

| Right you are, bob. |

| I'm not at all happy that I just crashed VisualStudio .NET. |
| #541 By 2459 (24.233.39.98) at 10/15/2002 12:25:20 AM |
| ouch. Not running the beta Framework or anything are you? |
| #542 By 2459 (24.233.39.98) at 10/15/2002 12:25:59 AM |
| Speaking of which, does VS have any recovery features like Office? |
| #543 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/15/2002 12:27:32 AM |
| Nope, I haven't downloaded the 1.1 beta. I'm running 1.0 sp2. I think it just didn't like that I wrote a function with 132 input params. It refuses to give me IntelliSense on it. |

Might want to check your memory usage or Harddrive space.
Sodajerk is a bit out of control: "Grow some balls"? lol, not to mention his attempted defense of FSF. Even RANT didn't defend FSF. This post was edited by n4cer on Tuesday, October 15, 2002 at 00:39. |
| #545 By 2459 (24.233.39.98) at 10/15/2002 12:36:39 AM |
| And, surprisingly, he has yet to respond to my post. I was expecting a bit of a debate. |
| #546 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/15/2002 12:39:49 AM |
| yeah, sj is a bit too much. |
| #547 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/15/2002 12:40:26 AM |
| it'll be interesting to see how (or if) he responds |
| #548 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/15/2002 12:43:14 AM |
| FSF really bugs me. I try to read gnu.org every so often to make sure in the past I wasn't dreaming about how horrible it is. I'm shocked anew everytime I return. |
| #549 By 1845 (12.254.162.111) at 10/15/2002 12:51:18 AM |
| vs.net has only crashed on me a few times and i'm including all the betas. clearly it doesn't like some things - like methods with a LOT of parameters. |
