Giveaway Time: Want to Win Two Computers?

A man runs into an old friend of his and his new wife. His friend greets him with a hello and introduces him to his spouse by saying, " This is my smokin hot trophy wife named Sarah!" The man replys back to him," What did you win, second place?"

Hi!

I'm a new subsciber to your blog's RSS feed.


Thanks.

My favorite web app I currently is MIXERO for twitter , I love it , but when you run it on my old pc , (dual pentium 4 ) with only 1gig of memory , and a hard drive filled to the gills with software that is definatley not made for my machine... Lightroom 2.4 and Adobe CS4 , and a lover of burning movies makes converting to dvd format a timely process to say the least, but what I would change about my computer would be to update it from 1995 to year 2009 , lol , AND I love mixero but it demands mucho memory which I dont have , so with a new pc , with more memory would make MIXERO as well as every other app run as smooth as exlax on a saturday morning .. soooOOO PLEASE help me out , I addicted to technology , but my budget cant fund my addiction , so Im about 3 weeks from trading a kidney for a new Corei i7 setup, soo helP!!!




My ideal web app would be able SUCCESSFULLY merge social media with true real time reporting , allowing anyone to open one lightweight app , and be able to navigate/ and share there library of docs,apps,pics,fonts , websites , ANYTHING , on there system with anyone who is on the list of people they collaborate with. From this app you should be able to link right through the app to your flickr app , and while remainging in the app, send a message to a friend or collegue in real time , linking them directly to the said media , without ever having to launch a browser, I think of it as an ALL IN ONE Media Powerhouse, letting you post , reply and share anything on all the major social networks as well as post directly to all the major blogging sites, like twitter, friendfeed, facebook , and Wordpress, Tumblr, Live , Type Pad etc. In the end this would mean that the top tech companies would have to come to some sort of agreement , befre this could ever happen , and I can see that happening anytime soon , the closest to this is Googles upcoming "Wave" which I cant wait to check out next month!!



Here is your funny Joke:



A Really Bad Day

There was this guy at a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half of an hour.



Then, this big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks it all down. The poor man starts crying. The truck driver says, "Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I'll buy you another drink. I just can't stand to see a man cry."



"No, it's not that. This day is the worst of my life. First, I fall asleep, and I go late to my office. My boss, outrageous, fires me. When I leave the building, to my car, I found out it was stolen. The police said that they can do nothing. I get a cab to return home, and when I leave it, I remember I left my wallet and credit cards there. The cab driver just drives away."



"I go home, and when I get there, I find my wife in bed with the gardener. I leave home, and come to this bar. And just when I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and drink my poison."

I would improve Twitter by making it easier to sort and/or search through the people you are following. Currently, the people you are following are listed in the order you added them. I would really like the ability to sort the people I follow alphabetically -- as well as the ability to search for specific people.
Thanks!

I currently use Firefox and I would improve it so that crashing wasn't an issue! The amount of times I've had to restart because of crashing.

A man walks into a bar. As he is sitting down he sees a fellow customer stuff a $10 bill into a large jar, which is filled with $10 dollar bills. The man asks the bartender, "Whats that jar?" The bartenders responds that if you give $10 dollars to the pot you can compete in a bet to win the entire jar - almost $10,000! The man asks what he would have to do and the bartender replies that first you must chug a bottle of whiskey, then pull a tooth from the pit bull out back, then go upstairs and have sex with the owners elderly mother. The man says easy enough and places his $10 in the jar. He quickly downs the entire bottle of whiskey and asks to be directed toward the dog. The man goes outside and everyone hears a great deal of barking, yelping and screaming. Finally the man walks back in and says, "Can I use pliers for taking out this lady's tooth?"

What does your perfect computer or Web application do?


My perfect computer's battery lasts for 12 hours straight, recharges in the sun and gets internet anywhere I go. Plus I can use it on planes.

What would you improve about a computer or Web application that you currently use?


I would let you rotate pdf files you have added to OneNote

I too just subscribed to your RSS feed. I think that I want the bag. Weird huh?

2. Entered via twitter about some hungry pufferfishes
3. Smarter pufferfishes. Bitly needs to discard extra characters whren certain apps "adds" trailing garbage (hint: TinyTwitter and corrupt parmeter passing)

4. Perfect computer? A beowulf cluster of smart pufferfishes, with frickin' lasers on their heads. So when spammer tries to abuse bitly, they can be erased, permanently.

5. A joke? I for one welcome our laser-equipped genius pufferfish overlords.

hahah, that one is nice! :D

Hey David, I subscribed as well.


As for what piece of software I would improve, it would be Google Apps - Docs & Spreadsheets. I'm a teacher and I use the built in form function to embed quizzes for my students over at mrbrammer dot com. What would be great is if the quizzes could be automatically graded and generic feedback given to the student so that they know how well they did.

I'd like to have a 'Gmail Ticker Tape' that I can run whilst I'm supposed to be working. It would show me the Headline of each new email - I could click on it and open it if I wanted to read it.

Hi! I just subscribed to your RSS feed!!

I subscribed to the RSS feed last night (and forgot to comment). :-)

I just subscribed to your RSS feed, and thanx for the contest!

Me too! A first-timer!


I use Evernote, and I saw another web-based program called Springpad, which starts to integrate the kind of notes that you make in Evernote with their intended uses (scheduling, planning a trip, a to-do list, etc). What I would really love is a scheduling web-based program that allows you to take these notes that you've made and insert them into a calendar (a la Google Docs), so that your notes could be sorted in terms of time sensitivity and chronological importance. That would be sweet! And if it would sync with phones and your computer when it's offline (like Evernote does already), that would make my life a little bit better.



Thanks for running this contest!!

#1 i subscribed to your feed with my email!!
#3 One thing i would improve about my macbook is to make it lighter!! holy! its heavy for a 13 inch laptop!! Also i would improve some of the applications on the macbook as many of them aren't compatible with some of the PC applications that I used to use.

#4 my perfect laptop would be compatible with all programs especially with media applications and files. And that it has unlimited storage space for all my movies, music and files! I don't ask a lot from my laptop.

Hey, just want you to know that I just subscribed on your feed! :D


Keep on keepin' on!

OK, here's a clean joke:-


Two college students, Frank and Matt, are riding on a New York City subway when a beggar approaches them asking for spare change.



Frank adamantly rejects the man in disgust.



Matt, on the other hand, whips out his wallet, pulls out a couples of dollar bills and gladly hands them over to the beggar with a smile.



The beggar thanks him kindly and then continues on to the other passengers. Frank is outraged by his friend's act of generosity.



"What on earth did you do that for?" shouts Frank. "You know he's only going to use it on drugs or booze!!!"



Matt replies, "What...and we weren't?"

Joke #1


A philosophy teacher challenging a student of her faith in God....



Teacher: To see is to believe. Have you seen God?



Student: No sir, I haven't.



Teacher: Then, there is no God.



Student: Sir, may I ask a question?...Have you seen your brain?



Teacher: No.



Student: My dear classmates! Let's go home! Sir has no brain.



LOL!

Joke #3



"There is no distant booger for a long, sharp fingernail."



Hope it touches your life today...very very inspirational. <LOL>

1) I'm now following you on GoogleReader (along with Esquire and GQ magazine lol)!


2) Twitter is confusing but I think I tweeted* your correctly. *Epic fail at Twitter use.



3) I've been using Stumble Upon for a while and as good as their filter system is on user-related content I wish they could have more specific tags i.e. my topic is Surfing, it narrows it on learn to surf, surf shops. A more narrow search without having to search would be amazing. Sure it's like a search engine, but sometimes research takes to long to have to click every single link on Google to find the kind of thing you're looking for. I'm not too computer intelligent, but I love finding media content on the net so that would help me quite alot.



4) Quite frankly there isn't alot of originality in computer or web applications. All that has been thought of, has been done. It's just who does it best and who becomes popular first at doing it. I would like to see a computer application, a single application, that is able to sync all web services and computer applications. I hate having to check through my email, twitter, facebook, myspace, pandora, imeem, rss feeds, etc. when I could be finding all my content on one screen. iGoogle has the idea, but it's sort of narrow where it hasn't taken the initiative to involve popular programs and website utilities across the technological spectrum (computers-media phones).



5) NSFW: What's the difference between a 2 cent hooker and a pricey female escort? One can suck the bread off a corndog and the other can suck a golfball out of a gardenhose with a little black dress on. *BADUMCHA!

3. I want to upgrade to Windows 7 when it's released to better utilize my computer's hardware.

5)These are actual sentences taken from letters received by a large city's

Welfare Department in applications for support:

1. I am forwarding my marriage certificate and six children. I have seven, but one died which was baptized on a half sheet of paper.

2. I am writing the Welfare Department to say that my baby was born two years old. When do I get my money?

3. You have changed my little boy to a girl. Will this make a difference?

4. I cannot get sick pay. I have six children. Can you tell me why?

5. I am glad to report that my husband who is missing is dead.

6. This is my eighth child. What are you going to do about it?

7. Please find for certain if my husband is dead. The man I am now living with can't eat or do anything till he knows.

8. I am very much annoyed to find you have branded my son illiterate. This is a dirty lie as I was married a week before he was born.

9. In answer to your letter, I have given birth to a boy weighing ten pounds. I hope this is satisfactory.

10. I am forwarding my marriage certificate and three children one of which is a mistake as you can see.

11. Unless I get my husband's money pretty soon, I will be forced to live an immortal life.

12. In accordance with your instructions I have given birth to twins in the enclosed envelope.

Hey I just subscribed to RSS feed :) and followed and tweeted :) I'm using Google Chrome a lot currently and I'd really like for it to have a more attractive design, fancier maybe :)

1) New RSS subscriber here!


3) Question is ambiguous - do you mean "{computer} or {web application}", or "{computer or web} application" (i.e. "computer application or web application"). To be safe I'll go with a web application, since that's allowed by all interpretations :o) I guess one thing I'd really like to see is better third-party client support for Facebook (particularly Facebook Chat) - AIUI at the moment Digsby has got an exclusive agreement to access Facebook Chat, so other clients (including the one to which I have a strong brand loyalty) have to reverse-engineer the protocol. Not terribly satisfactory. (In an IM application, I expect IM features to be there, not just "reading my news feed" features, when integrating with a site that offers IM.)



4) My perfect web application is one that isn't just confined to a browser. GMail manages this by offering both POP and IMAP access - a powerful browser-based web app when I'm away from my desk, but integrated into my desktop experience when I'm at my main computer. Facebook sorta-manages it with its semi-integration into some multiprotocol messaging clients. Most web forums at the moment don't manage it at all.



5) Musical joke: What's the difference between a bull and an orchestra? A bull has the horns at the front and the arsehole at the back!

A little boy watched, fascinated, as his mother covered her face in cold cream. "Why do you do that?" he asked.


"To make myself beautiful."



When she began to rub it off, the boy asked, "Why are you doing that? Did you give up?"

4/“What does your perfect computer or Web application do?”


my perfect webapp would be a complete alternative to the Office suite. right now Google Docs and Zoho still lack so much compared to MS Office's features, especailly the presentation app. also, such a cloud office app would also work offline, in case I find myself lacking a connection, and online with minium downtime

Suscribed to RSS feed.

3/ “What would you improve about a computer or Web application that you currently use?”


I would definitely improve iTunes as a better media player, its tagging feature is mediocre at best, as well as its support for FLAC files. a lil bit love for global hotkeys would be very useful too.

oh if Apple still wants to make iTunes their central portal, might as well rename it iStores, or else what we're having here is a seriously bloated media player

And here's one of my favorite jokes.




Do you know what a milli-helen is?



It's the amount of beauty required to launch ONE ship.

My perfect web app allows for all my content to come through in one stream (as indicated in my other comment). My perfect computer is portable, light, touchscreen, wireless internet, and capable of plugging USB and Firewire into it. Almost the Apple Tablet, but more robust and useful and more like a computer than an ipod.

I use gmail, google reader, facebook and twitter. Currently, I have to check all four of them independently. What I'd like is ONE continuous newsfeed that allows me to check all of them and interact with all of them (and all the other 2.0 sites). Friendfeed doesn't quite do it. Digsby doesn't quite do it. Nothing quite does it. I want just one stream that collects all the data and news and mail that I'm interested in.

1.) I've subscribed to your feed!


3.) An application I would improve would be Mozilla Firefox. It currently has some of the worst memory management issues and I would hope it gets fixed very soon. Some more improvements to see would be a more polished user interface and cloud synchronization of bookmarks. Other ides would be to a have an extension debugger to pinpoint bad extensions causing memory leaks.



4.) My perfect computer can withstand all the heavy duty work that I do. It is fast and very responsive and doesn't lack too much even after having a very long uptime. My perfect computer would have a great build quality and enough ram and processing speed to handle multiple heavy applications for me.
