Nah Uh! Goldfinger=Shirley Bassey, FTW! :p And I am shielded from the White/Keys travesty for life. :p - Helen Sventitsky

I like die another day - RAPatton

Too bad it couldn't save the movie. I like FYEO much better, musically. - Josh Haley

Both of you will now be shepherded straight to the Jack White/Alicia Keyes Bond theme travesty room...have fun. - Alex Scoble CISSP

i think the White/Keyes is actually pretty damn good. - Zee from WeDoCreative

Josh, for your comment you also receive an all expense paid trip to the Jack White/Alicia Keyes Bond theme travesty room...have fun listening to one of the worst Bond songs ever...One Meelion Times! - Alex Scoble CISSP

Zee will be following Josh in the shackles of shame to the White/Keyes room of torturous hell. - Alex Scoble CISSP

Shirley Bassey owns the throne forever. I honestly liked "Another Way to Die." But then again, I liked "Live and Let Die", too. For some reason I find them similar. - Victor Ganata

Sigh...good thing we built the room with extra capacity. Victor also gets a free trip to the worst Bond theme song ever room...have fun listening to Jack White wail talentlessly for one million times. - Alex Scoble CISSP

White's song was an excellent opening track - ballsiest rock song opening in years - Christopher Galtenberg

Hell, I watched the *original* "Casino Royale." Nothing can faze me. - Victor Ganata

No shame here. Living Daylights as a film sucked balls compared to most of the other films and this theme song is whiny. Nothing against Dalton. His debut was great in License to Kill. But anyway, this is about the music...For Your Eyes Only rules, followed by Live and Let Die, then View to a Kill, Diamonds are Forever. - Josh Haley

Yet another traveler to the theme song room of doom, congratulations to Christopher Galtenberg, you too will be spending a long time listening to Jack White's insipid voicings for far longer than you could possibly tolerate. - Alex Scoble CISSP

For getting your facts wrong (Timothy Dalton debuted in The Living Daylights), your sentence is now two million listens to the Jack White song. - Alex Scoble CISSP

Tom Jones FTW! Hahaha!!! - Victor Ganata

I can handle 2 million listens, sure. You are correct about the chronology, but it doesn't change the fact that Living Daylights sucked on your balls a bit. - Josh Haley

+1 VG! Forgot about Thunderball! :D - Helen Sventitsky

LOL, Josh...you just didn't like Living Daylights cuz it kicked your ass a bit. ;) Aston Martin V8 Vantage FTW! Best Bond car ever. - Alex Scoble CISSP

*biting tongue hard as truce is in place* It's ...um...better than the later Moore films Alex......*must be good* - Abby Martin

ROFL, Abby...this thread is about the theme song and not the movie though. - Alex Scoble CISSP

Alex: you're crazy. Any theme with Shirley Bassey wins over any other theme any day. - Steven Perez

Oh come on! Goldfinger by Shirley Bassey is clearly the best Bond theme song. I also loved the one from Casino Royale by Chris Cornell. - Joey Gibson

Steven Perez is the latest winner to the worst Bond song of all time room for dissing the BEST Bond theme of all time. Enjoy your million song session of pain. And I don't expect this to get old anytime soon. :) It's so fun to banish people to a non-existent room of aural agony. - Alex Scoble CISSP

Joey Gibson, congratulations! Here's your complimentary straight jacket and eye lid holding open thingy for your trip to the million listens of doom room...Jack White will be personally putting the eye drops in your eyes himself by the way. Enjoy! - Alex Scoble CISSP

Alex: repeat after me - IT'S A-HA. Shirley Bassey crooning YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE > "aaaahhh ahhhh ahhhh ahhhhhhhhh the living daylights". - Steven Perez

Steven, you get an additional million song session for naming the wrong singer that performed You Only Live Twice...It was actually performed by Nancy Sinatra. - Alex Scoble CISSP

Alex: you lose 50,000,000,000,000,000 intrawebz bucks. http://www.mi6.co.uk/news/inde... - Steven Perez

You seriously want to go to bat against me on this? Nancy Sinatra performed it originally...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v... - Alex Scoble CISSP

Ah, but I wasn't talking about originals. And the article I linked clearly calls this a cover song. - Steven Perez

http://www.amazon.com/Party-St... - Steven Perez

You get an extra million song session with Jack White for your impudence! The 4 million song session comes with a courtesy laser dongle removal from Auric Technologies if you want to up your score! - Alex Scoble CISSP

And anyway, I'm half deaf, so I would only hear half the horror of Jack Black and Alicia Keys. HA HA! I DEFY YOUR PITIFUL PUNISHMENT, SIR! - Steven Perez

sorry, the best Bond theme is from OHMSS by the master John Barry. key feature... no terrible lyrics. that movie also featured the great Louis Armstrong doing "We Have All the Time in the World." OHMSS is the most under-rated Bond movie ever, despite the Lazenby. probably best book also. - Jon Price

For your continued defiance, not only will you get the free laser castration treatment, but you will now be forced to read a million blog posts by my brother on how China is so much better than we are! - Alex Scoble CISSP

I say Nay as well. Wish it was YAY. - Gary Bacon II

sure hope so! - Vikrum J. Singh

Nay. - Louis Gray

Nay - Susan Beebe

Come bet on it. ;) http://www.thestandard.com/pre... - Cyndy

in 2008? it's almost over and no one's hardly even talking about it, even PC users (although I quite like it). Nay - Dori Fern

I say Nay. - Joey Gibson

Sadly, Nay... - Seth Greenblatt

Sex, lies and applications...:) - Olcayto

See, the iphone is evil, it got that poor innocent husband in so much trouble! /joking of course. - Jason Shultz via twhirl

oh yeah? - Tuğçe Cengiz

I better stop using my camera then... - Simon Wicks

so THAT explains why I keep getting photos of masturbating men sent to me... thanks! - Shawn Duffy via twhirl

+1 to Shawn.... People need to figure out that anything they do these days is on record. - Aram Zucker-Scharff via twhirl

LOL Shawn... :) - Zee from WeDoCreative

you US folk have gotta read this...honestly hilarious. - Zee from WeDoCreative

shut up you guys, the same bug happened on my gf's phone - John Cozen

I tried that excuse, but forgot I don't have an iphone. ;/ - Anika Malone

The sad part is I know people who would believe this sort of thing - Aaron Krug

Also include: Anything by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. One time, they were seriously alternative. Now, I just skip or change the station. - Louis Gray

Achey Breaky Heart. Cotton-eyed Joe by Rednex. All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth (ok I was 8 when I last liked that one) - Phil Glockner

Sliding but not completely fired: Smashing Pumpkins, Radiohead. (And yes, I know these are bands and not songs) - Louis Gray

Man, I love all the songs and artists you guys mentioned. Maybe I'm still stuck in the 90s? - Jesse Stay

Yeah, RHCP seem to be rubbish these days. - Richard Bradshaw

Anything by Lamb. I wore out the first two albums and just can't stand to listen any more. - Kevin D. White

I wear my sunglasses at night, most things by Peter Gabriel. Too much play, get bored with it. - dan

Being part of the party scene here, take any new club song release, give me 3 months and I'm sick of it. - Mark Martinez

Louis, I hate you. I now have that as an earworm... la-da-dee-da-da-da, la-da-dee-da-da. ARG! - Cyndy

Most stuff by Sting - Tad, Fool

i used to love Rhianna's Umbrella song - now its turned off as soon as it starts - Stephanie Pickett

any thing by or with Kanye West... Yes he's talented but every time he issues a statement or does an interview I want to slap the taste out of is mouth. Along that line of thinking you can throw "The Puff Daddy" (or what ever the kids are calling him now) to my needs to be slapped up list... - J. Abdul-Qahhar

The eighties. All of it. - Slippy Lane

Almost everything I played when I was on the air. You think YOU'RE tired of the stuff you hear on the radio. After the 50,000th play of "Heartache Tonight," the violent thoughts begin. - Chris Baskind

No such thing! I can go the other direction, but once it's liked, it's liked forever. - Josh Haley

Most songs off the classic greatest hits albums (you know the ones I'm talking about) by the Eagles, Steve Miller, The Doors and Eric Clapton. - Jon Price

I will love Depeche Mode until the day that I die, but if I hear "Enjoy the Scilence" one more time.... - Helen Sventitsky

Finally got rid of the earworm, and thought of one. Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy" - Cyndy

Louis, usually every sony I like :) I have a bad habit of looping... Like, playing the song 100 - 200 times ...again and again ... eventually the magic wears off and I start hating the song :))) - Alemsah

I'm theorising that great music from 1976 and before has remained great, whilst anything that has been labelled as great since the end of 1976 has, in fact dated. The further we get from 1976, the quicker new so-called great tracks age and cause us annoyance. ;-) - Slippy Lane

Something else to slow it down! - orionstarr

Firefox Barbie! - abacab

Okay I installed some.. what can you tell me about last fm? - orionstarr

Digsby app was created right here in Rochester, NY = hotbed of east tech! ha, ha! - Susan Beebe

More importantly, by a fellow RIT alum :) - Andrew Badera

Looks good, but not mac or linux friendly. Who the heck makes a social app that can't be used by macs? Oh god, my sweet, sweet bubble of mac superiority has been punctured nooooooooooooooo! - Soup

Finally tried it out today. Loving it - Mark Wilson

When I was still on Windows, I used Digsby for a while. Loved it, but the Memory leakage sucked the life out of my experience with it. - Helen Sventitsky

memory leaks have been fixed, It now takes about 5-7mb when running in the systray, and for me 25-30mb when opened up. - Pascal

If friendfeed will be integrated, I would replace my Pidgin with this. Looks good. - Ryo

I use Digsby - Kristian Salonen

Keep coming back to check this out only to find no linux version. Looks nice though - David Miller

I use Digsby as well.. - Terence Washington

Me too, great app, still needs a few tweaks though. - Kol Tregaskes

I know it's not linux friendly but it's a terrific app, and the memory leaks are a thing of the past. It's ideal to have it on and keep an eye in your email and now with the FriendFeed by IM it's almost better than Twhirl. - Cibeles

I use it on my windows boxes. They need a Mac and Linux client. - Neal "thePuck" Jansons

Digsby is fine. They did improve mem usage, but it can cause lag when it jumps from idle to active. I still couldn't use it for that reason. It's like David Banner turning into the Hulk everytime you touch it. Stuff gets all ripped up and stuff... - ♫ Rahsheen™

I really don't have a problem with it, to be honest. But I do remember the memory leakages in the past. It so good that I had to close the updates from FriendFeed it was way to much information for me LOL, that's why I don't use that much Twhirl it jumps on you when you are doing something else. - Cibeles

Digsby and Ping.fm are great together - definately need a client for the Mac. My pc is offline and I want my digsby back, great for keeping track of multiple FaceBook, MySpace and IM accounts. - Chris Loft

still waiting for the Mac version... - Jon Price

Agree with others -- with the memory leaks fixed, digsby is the best client of it's type -- and it SHOULD have a linux client. I know the dev team has mentioned trying to make one happen, wonder if it would run in WINE? - Woodrow Jarvis Hill

Do you think he'll surprise and go to another team? The Celtics and Cavs have expressed interest. - Ryne Nelson

If I were him, I'd go to Boston if given the chance. - Rodfather

Here's an interesting take (http://info.detnews.com/redesi...): Last thing: I would put it at 90 percent that Antonio McDyess will return to the Pistons in 30 days. Boston and Cleveland want him, but he has said over and over that he doesn't want to play any where else but Detroit. Comfort and familiarity is gold to McDyess at this stage of his career. As for Boston, I don't think Dyess wants to hook up with Kevin Garnett. Those two are not close, not at all. They respect each other, but they aren't buddies. That would be a tense dynamic for Dyess. I think he's coming back, but in this league, nothing is certain until it happens - Rodfather

Yeah Tay Can Play All 5 Positions He's That Good!! - Theron

sometimes he can do it，he can not do as pg all the time.let stuckey to play pg . - eljay

Not a bad idea for setting up the half-court offense. - Rodfather

There will never be another Scottie Pippen. Remember how Grant Hill was? And then Anthony Mason? - Mitchell Laurren-Ring

So again, trade a great point guard in Billups and replace him with a converted swing man in Tayshaun? He's not Pippen and they don't run the Triangle Offense like the Bulls did. It's an interesting move but not one that gives me confidence they can beat the Hawks, Celts, or LeBrons in a 7 game series.... - Live4Soccer

After spending some time as an Evernote user I'm just fed up. Here's my reaction. I'd like to know: What do all of you use the program for? I feel like the only one whose had any issues with it considering the rave reviews flying around. - Aram Zucker-Scharff

I use it as a staging account. It's where I throw stuff that I don't have time to otherwise categorize. I also use it to store info that I know I'm going to need later but I'm in too big of hurry to do anything else. It's also great for screenshots. The best note taker in the world is still Notepad, or at least Notepad++. - tsudohnimh

I do the same thing with OneNote, and if I pull it from the web or another doc, It'll keep a link. Also, it lets me pull up notes without opening the main program, just a blank notepad like area that auto saves and is searchable. This is what I don't get, what does Evernote do that makes it competitive? I feel like I must be missing out on some big secret. - Aram Zucker-Scharff

I use Evernote, for work and home. Reason #1 Its free, Reason #2 It works on multiple platforms. (I can find something of interest at work on a PC, and pull that same info and edit on my iPhone, or Mac at home.. try that with OneNote) Prior to Evernote, I was a Google Note book fan, the only problem was that I could not edit notes on my phone, but I can with Evernote. - Steve Sill

I use Evernote to collect things from the web I want to remember that might go away (Photoshop tutorials are good examples...), I use it to store account credentials like a password manager. I use it to store all the PDFs that I have collected over the years. I use it to store MP3s so I can access them on other computers. I use it to store any bit of text or information I might need to recall later like the stuff my kid's school sends home, insurance policies, credit card emergency contact information... - Lindsay Donaghe

You don't have to save the link in the note when you cut and paste from the web, it captures that information for you. You can see the metadata for notes in the Windows (and I'm assuming Mac) clients at the top of each note. You can edit that if you need to but the web clipper or cut and paste from a website does it automatically. - Lindsay Donaghe

I guess I don't use it for note taking in the sense of academic note taking and I can see how it might be not as ideal, but it's extremely useful to me and I'm a very happy paid subscriber to the service. My main two complaints are not being able to store zip and other file types and not being able to share notes with specific people/groups. Oh, and lack of an Android G1 app. But I'm hoping all that will come eventually and it's still useful to me in the mean time. - Lindsay Donaghe

Lindsay, that's some of the same stuff I use OneNote for. While I do feel safe putting my passwords on OneNote, I don't know if I would with Evernote, considering everything passes through the web. I had no idea you could use it to store MP3s, but that doesn't seem like the ideal solution. The downside to Evernote is if you don't tag something properly it can be very very difficult to browse to. - Aram Zucker-Scharff

This is especially an issue with passwords, you don't want to make them easy for an intruder to find but trying to browse notebooks in Evernote is an exercise in frustration. For stuff on the web, isn't that the whole point of printing to a PDF? I have to admit, I am seeing some legitimate uses for Evernote, but still how often to you use it to go back? It seems to me that most people seem to use it more as a drop box than anything else. - Aram Zucker-Scharff

I use or for note since the beginning of 2005, when it was still a desktop only client. Since that time I've used it to store login information, registration information, names and telephone numbers, where I've put certain things in the house (and whereas move them to later because I always forget, LOL), snippets of pertinent knowledge from webpages, events (when did we get the dog? When was first visit to Cirque du Soleil? Etc.) and anything else that I would like to ask quick and instant recall off the phone when it's just something in the back of my mind particularly on the tip of my tongue. I add words to those notes, words and phrases, which reminds me of such content to which I think I will use in the future to find that particular note back. With now over 2000 notes ever note has become the Google off my information, a powerhouse of facts and trivia. Sensitive information is encrypted; no problem there. By the way, I also use OneNote but in a much different way. - Ruud Hein

Aram - for passwords, I store those in encrypted notes, so I don't worry so much about whether it's exposed on the web. It's not an ideal solution as I can only decrypt those on the Windows client but I don't have to look things up that often... It's more for peace of mind that I know they are there if I forget. - Lindsay Donaghe

For printing to PDF, now that I have Evernote, I don't have to do that anymore, I can just clip straight to Evernote. But I have a huge backlog of them, and now they are in one place, tagged and organized. And I do use them (I was just looking up some information on my kid's upcoming band concert that I'd scanned in so I can forward to my mom before writing this). Search works well for me, and the OCR is great. I don't HAVE to use tags because of that. I actually use tags as notebooks instead. - Lindsay Donaghe

I don't like the "folder" model of organizing information. If I use tags and structure them I can look up information in several different "thought paths". Yes, I tag every note, and make a point of it. It's been a while since I used OneNote but all the notebooks and sub-notebooks made it hard for me find things. I like tagging much better... it's flat and deep at the same time. - Lindsay Donaghe

I also use OneNote for work. I have a separate account for all my work notes (so I can hand it over when I leave). I use it to document chat sessions (our logs are erased daily) and code snippets and I document processes and procedures (with links to relevant files/sites in the steps). I keep account credentials and other information encrypted there. I use it every single day, probably about 70% adding info and 30% looking it up again (but when I do need to look it up, it's quick and easy!). - Lindsay Donaghe

See, the issue I have is that yes, some of this stuff that Evernote can do is good, but I can do the same thing (all of it) and a lot more in OneNote with the exception of the easy sync. I guess part of it is work style Lindsay, I like OneNote's notebooks and sub-notebooks, they make organizing things easy. Like I said before, it seems to me that the legitimate uses of Evernote are more along the lines of a box to dump things in. Evernote doesn't do structure as far as I can see, not really. Also, how many notes do you deal with in your tags? The UI discourages browsing, so you need precise tagging or a very good memory for what it is to look up. Still it seems to me that Evernote is bad at taking notes and is more of a FTP for random bits. - Aram Zucker-Scharff

For example: one of the main things I use OneNote for is to build a bible for a game development team I'm on. Within the notebook for that project each topic has it's own section, each section has headings on notes with general descriptions and in-notebook links then when I want to drill down into more detail I pull it into a sub-note. For me, OneNote is a real reference. One that works the same way an encyclopedia does. In OneNote, I know that if I go to a tab on factions I can get a listing on factions and dig deeper to find cross-links to bios, profiles and sub-factions. With Evernote I'm stuck trying to use a horrendous double scroll bar to find out what the hell the faction was I was thinking about earlier in the day. See the problem? It still feels to me that OneNote is a tool that builds productivity, but I'm not sure that Evernote really does. I mean, it is great that you can drop random personal factoids in there, but why do you need to? - Aram Zucker-Scharff

Yeah, I agree, Aram. I don't use it to take notes, but to archive info. I am very picky about tags. I put at least one tag and usually several on every note. I have hundreds of tags and I have those organized in hierarchies. I use the auto-complete feature for filling in tags in the web clipper. Between tags and search I have no problems finding things again. I use Evernote from home, work and my phone and LOVE having access to my info anywhere I am. That's the main advantage over OneNote for me. - Lindsay Donaghe

And why would you use Evernote to save websites when Delicious does it better, Google does immediate caching and the Internet Archive saves old versions of the website? I understand that Evernote does this stuff, but it seems to me that there is a whole host of tools out there, many of them free, that do it better. Most of them are also better about increasing content for your social network. Then there is OneNote, which does it all also. You have enlightened me here, I see there are some useful things that Evernote can do, but I can't see how it can become competitive. - Aram Zucker-Scharff

Delicious doesn't save any of the content (I have quite a large Del.icio.us archive, btw). Internet Archive has failed me (lots of times) and I have had problems finding things again on Google... Most of the stuff I put in Evernote I don't really want to share with the world (though I would like to with specific people). OneNote is not free, limited to Windows, and doesn't automatically sync with a backup in the clouds and isn't accessible from my phone. For me, it serves my needs better than OneNote. - Lindsay Donaghe

I am pretty familiar with the other tools available out there (I am a beta site addict and a digital packrat... if it looked at all useful I tried it). Evernote isn't perfect but it's constantly improving and what's already there works for how I need it. And it's ONE service verses several that lets me have my data where, when and how I need it. It's my digital file cabinet. - Lindsay Donaghe

Lindsay, you hit on the very reason why I wish I could use Evernote so much, the ability to have my stuff living on the cloud would be fantastic. Right now my OneNote is being synced up between my laptop and desktop using an FTP solution with my server. Having it automatic with Evernote has so much promise. But I can't use Evernote for notes, or to work with text in the free-form drop and drag I use with OneNote. I can't pop-up a single notepad-style file either. On top of all that, I don't own an iPhone, only a Palm Pilot. I'm getting a lot of great feedback on here and on the blog post about ways to use Evernote, but so many of them tie into the iPhone it is just depressing. My Palm Centro feels left out :P. But seriously, if I could get easier lists on Evernote alone, I feel that would make a huge difference. I'd like a solution to my mess of a backup system and Evernote seems to understand that, it just doesn't do what I need it to do, but all these other services do. By the way, when it comes to website - Aram Zucker-Scharff

I guess what it really comes down to was just how disappointed I was in Evernote, I expected to be able to find a solution to my backup issues, but for me, using Evernote caused way more problems then it solved. Also... it did make me consider getting an iPhone, but then I looked at iTunes on a friends computer and my resolve not to get one was strengthened. In the end, the deal is that I use OneNote for everything, even these posts I put on FriendFeed are typed in OneNote, my work, my hobbies, my play, it all goes into OneNote and Evernote can't do that, it can't even come close. I’d look into a Sharepoint server (which essentially should give OneNote the easy syncing and e-mail abilities Evernote has) but that's expensive. - Aram Zucker-Scharff

Yep, EN works best as a dump place of lose info bits, for me. ON I use for structured info (documenting work projects esp.). Too, it's the value-over-time. You've been building in ON for a long time, hence you have tremendous value back - Ruud Hein

You know you can open a note in a separate single editor window right? That's not what you mean by "notepad-style file"? As for the phone use, since I now have an Android G1 and no longer the nice Windows mobile app I've had to make do with Evernote Mobile website and posting via email (for pictures). It's not ideal but it works fine and still lets me have access to things on my phone. There's no perfect solution. I think there's possibilities with Evernote's API if I could find time to write a client! - Lindsay Donaghe

Yea, but it doesn't work the same as OneNote's does. I can just hit Windows+N and pop up a little window that is pretty much advanced notepad. It works great. The pop-out window in Evernote (which you have to use to get to the unordered list button) isn't nearly the same. The Evernote website scales down to your G1 well? I'd love to see someone do something really unique with Evernote's API, I think it has a lot of potential. - Aram Zucker-Scharff

Ruud, I see your point. - Aram Zucker-Scharff

I agree there are several limitations that make Evernote worse than OneNote for capturing and searching notes... but OneNote doesn't run on Mac or iPhone or easily sync across multiple devices. - Jon Price

Jon, I guess you are right, but for an all Windows user like me, that's not something that really matters to me. - Aram Zucker-Scharff

I'm liking Evernote for a lot of reasons but it does have weaknesses. I won't commit to it until they have encryption at the notebook and note level (currently you can only encrypt a selection). Also, ease of notetaking needs to be improved. I want a pop-up window that I can stickpin on top of all other windows. - Rod Bauer via twhirl
