IntelliJ IDE Keeps on Keepin' On

,----[ Quote ]
| In a world of vanishing commercial Java IDEs, 
| JetBrains' code-centric IntelliJ is something 
| of an anomaly. Among the relatively few such 
| tools to survive intact the advent of the 
| Eclipse juggernaut, IntelliJ continues to 
| innovate, adapt and, among its devoted users, 
| thrive.

Whatever happened to Second Life?

,----[ Quote ]
| At its peak, the Second Life economy had more 
| money swilling about than several third-world 
| countries. It had even produced its own 
| millionaire, Anshe Chung, who made a very 
| real fortune from buying and selling property 
| that existed only on Second Life servers.

What if microsoft were to go Open Source?

,----[ Quote ]
| The microsoft programs would be ported to run on more
| architectures and processors. There would be native versions of
| msoffice, visio, etc. running on Linux, BSD, Solaris and MacOS. I
| also think that microsofts programs would get a thorough going
| over with a fine toothed comb and become more efficient with many
| bugs and security problems being fixed. There would also be
| faster and more timely patches being released resulting in less
| zero day exploits.
