    The money you spent on tuition was to prevent sentences like that first one. Where's the independent clause? #opentechnologycourses

    Unfortunately, that little piece of paper known as a degree is far more valuable than the knowledge you gained while obtaining it. #opentechnologycourses

    @PurpleMonkeyDishwasher: You forgot cout and cin operators, and I don't see the point to it considering it's answered in the article. #opentechnologycourses

    @spannu: For some reason, the operators do not show up. I'm guessing because of the HTML embedding capability of the comments.

    And I was just making a joke, I realize they are free courses and that's pretty sweet. #opentechnologycourses

    Besides, the cin and cout classes always work with standard member functions if you want to make your reference even more obscure. #opentechnologycourses

    One way or another, I'm getting a videophone here in the US. This is as close as it'll be until the iPhone 3GV comes out.

    I "pre-ordered" and my information went through, even though it had a bunch of warnings that it couldn't process my telephone number or zip code (possibly because their site is only accepting formats of their own countries).

    HEY! Only 2.5 hours for news websites? And I'm supposed to divvy up that time between Gizmodo and other news sites? Not enough time allotted there. I spend a heckuva lot more time on Giz than that!
