Comment on NBC: “Raines,” “Studio 60″ cancelled. by Rene

NBC execs should get the boot. I agree…they never gave the show a chance. It had a great cast and personally, I liked Jeff’s weird character and the basic theme of the show. They do stuff like this all the time and they aren’t the only ones.

A minimum play run should be 24 episodes. That allows enough time for the audience to make their showing of support.

I also hate it when a good show gets cancelled and they replace it with crap.

Bring Raines back…………

Raines was a great show. NBC never gave it a chance. They moved its time and were not consistent from week to week. It is like they tried to kill it as they often do. And those guys get paid BIG BUCKS.

Sorry Jeff…it wasn’t your fault.

Comment on Inquisitor puts affiliate links at top of search results by Joe Eversole

If somewhere on the website, it said “To keep Inquisitor free, it will sometimes recommend links to Amazon where the author earns commission. This can be disabled in the settings tab.” Something along those lines (and adding in something about the Apple store).

I’m not saying the dude’s gotta make a living… which is why it was shareware in the beginning. When he decided “Hey, I bet I could probably make the cash back by inserting Amazon affiliate links,” he should have said something about it then.

I have to say I think this guy deserves to make some cash. I was surprised to NOT see the affiliate code in the amazon searches. I’m glad he figured out a way to make cash.

Another application that I believe he does in, is Xtorrent.
I’ve noticed while searching for certain things, that his apps, or amazon related merc comes up first.

This wouldn’t be so if I was using XTorrent on trial, and hadn’t already paid for.
But having paid, It would be nice to opt-out (if you were even informed) and not be making DW any more $$$ behind the scenes.

I´ve noticed the top-rated comercial links for certian search strings already for some time but i suggested it was a google related issue.
Anyway, thanks for the info.

I´ll deinstall Inquisitor right now.

Ich habe häufigen kommerziellen Links als erste Suchergebnisse schon länger bemerkt, aber dies immer für ein Google-Problem gehalten.
Danke für die Information.

Inquisitor fliegt sofort von meinem System.

What a sneaky bastard. Thanks for the heads-up on this. I actually have Inquisitor installed, but that will only be for a few more minutes now.

Those strings results are really interesting. All the Apple Store links don’t go to Apple, but via some shady bunch called “Commission Junction”. To me, that’s somehow much worse than just Amazon referrals.
Eugh!

Comment on McDonalds Coffee != Starbucks by Stephanie Sprinkle

I have looked for this forum. They used to use Seattle’s Best and it was great. This is sludge. Tastes like the smell that greets you if you leave the pot on all day and it burns on the bottom. The cups don’t say whose brand it is anymore either. Is it Starbuck’s? I’ll pass.

Just curious about the coffee beans used by McDonalds. what are they, where do they come from and how do they compare to those used by Tim Hortons?

Your comments please.
