Google Project 10 to the 100

¢mindfuckx:iconmindfuckx: reports, September 25
"At Google, we don't believe we have the answers, but we do believe the answers are out there. Maybe in a lab, or a company, or a university -- but maybe not.

Maybe the answer that helps somebody is in your head, in something you've observed, some notion that you've been fiddling with, some small connection you've noticed, some old thing you have seen with new eyes.
If you have an idea that you believe would help somebody, we want to hear about it. We're looking for ideas that help as many people as possible, in any way, and we're committing the funding to launch them. You can submit your ideas and help vote on ideas from others. Final idea selections will be made by an advisory board."

Google will donate a $10 million sponsorship to the top 5 ideas.
So what are you still doing here ?

Welll I'll have to download and install it straight away, I migrated to Netscape 7.0 after spyware that I picked up via Internet Explorer killed my comp, not good. I also discovered that web pages that I had made in the most recent version of Front Page are not compatible with Netscape despite choosing that compatibility at the design stage in Front Page, not good ! I shall be learning dreamweaver.

Have Microsoft really orientated themselves to the internet. Naaa it's all a big lie !

good for web developers. i wonder if netscape renders the same as the 1.7.2 mozilla out right now. interesting to know that netscape is still trying to be in the race....even if they are all the way in last place ;)

AOL should have just let the browser die. I mean, it causes compatibility issues with the 'standard' (or at least it did, perhaps it's been revised in JavaScript usage). I know they created many of the standards, but the truth is, they weren't that great back then. Now things are cleaned up and Netscape still reverts to being the 'old' way. Yeah, that's just how I see things though.

To all you literal people, yes... I know what Netscape is... I’m being cynical.
