What’s Cool and What’s Not On the Internet

Published by simon on August 23, 2005

I’m feeling kinda depressed at work lately, not helped by a recurring headache since Sunday night. And so what do I do? Bitch about it on my blog! No seriously, I’m gonna bitch about the internet. This is just my humble opinion, feel free to add at the end…

WHAT’S COOL: … Firefox. Opera
WHAT’S NOT: … Internet Explorer. Netscape

WHAT’S COOL:… Wordpress.
WHAT’S NOT: … That other one, that isn’t Wordpress.

WHAT’S COOL:… Amazon.com
WHAT’S NOT: … Barnes & Noble

WHAT’S COOL: … “Take Back the Web”
WHAT’S NOT: … “Windows have encountered a problem…Send or Don’t Send Error Report…”

WHAT’S COOL: … Google, A9
WHAT’S NOT: … Lycos, Altavista

WHAT’S COOL: … Answers.com, Wikipedia.com
WHAT’S NOT: … Cambridge Dictionaries Online, Merriam-Webster Online

WHAT’S COOL: … Linux
WHAT’S NOT: … Microsoft

WHAT’S COOL: … Gmail
WHAT’S NOT: … Coldmail Hotmail

WHAT’S COOL: … XML
WHAT’S NOT: … Atom (!)

WHAT’S COOL: … “Hooray! No spam here!”
WHAT’S NOT: … “Click here for free online drugs…”

WHAT’S COOL: … freeware, shareware
WHAT’S NOT: … “Your 30-day trial period has expired, to continue using this software, please send USD$199 to…”
