I've TRIED to use what was it? chandler? anyways it just doesn't stack up. google, wikipedia and wolfram alpha seem to be doing a pretty damn good job of telling me what i need to know. #markcuban
There's a better way for MSFT to try to kill Google. Just offer to list Google's customers for free. It worked in the borwser war and it will work here. There's no better way to destroy your competition than to offer something for nothing.
That, of course, begs the question whether or not Bing is a good search engine to begin with. If not, no one will take the free offer. #markcuban
That's an interesting concept, but I'm pretty sure you would need to pay much more than $1,000,000 to get many of the top 1000 websites to delist from Google. I mean, Yahoo, EBay, CNN, Facebook, etc. are up there. To them, that's pocket change. #markcuban
But that upfront bill that wouldn't get past Microsoft's stock holders, let alone the US government's anti-competition watchdogs.
Yes, this is exactly what anti-trust legislation was made for... a larger competitor shouldn't be able to crush smaller competitors by paying other companies not to do business with them. You want to crush your competition? Then build a better mousetrap than them. #markcuban
With the top site being Google, this plan will work great! We give them money and they delist themselves from themselves, and there will be no risk of the internet being broken. #markcuban
Unfortunately, there's a lot of educational content on there used by teachers. Now that's gone, and it's going to really confuse a lot of elementary/middle school students. #geocities
If anyone wants to remember classic memories of Geocities, be sure to check out xkcd.com today - they reskinned their site to look like a typical Geocities site you'd encounter. #geocities
@Masakari: It's so gloriously full of all the design flaws of Geocities... (single tear).
Love the black text on the black background, and the notice at the bottom saying "Best viewed in Netscape Navigator 4.7 or better at 800x480" #geocities
