Coffeehouse - Google: Bing is copying our search results

cynthia399 — Wed, 02 Feb 2011 03:42:32 GMT

Also, goggle had about 100 terms that they were using but only 7-9 of them turned up in bings results. So microsoft is obviously doing something else with the results from the toolbar data beside putting it directly into the results at bing.

This also could be spun as goggle tring to figure out how bings algorithm works.

I think it shows because some of the data is retained in the backups for these drives. I have the same thing happen on my whs.

To change the wireless security key:

go to control panel and search for reorder wireless network. Right click on the connection you want to change and choose the security tab to change the key.

Coffeehouse - Am I the only one.... who things Vista Rocks?!

cynthia399 — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 20:59:21 GMT

I must say that I like Vista, I have been using it since the 5308 beta.

I am running it on an almost 3 year old Toshiba P15 laptop which can do the full aero experience and on a home built desktop which does not support aero so I use the classic interface.

In the begining the UAC was kind of annoying but that was when I was installing programs and doing general setup to get things the way that I like. But after everything was setup I hardly ever get UAC prompts from just using my computer in my daily routine.

The only real annoyance that I have is the slowness of doing operations on files such as copying, deleting or moving. But I solved that problem by doing these operations from the commandline.

Gotcha, so you want a "group by conversations" and an "arrange by date", right? That seems reasonable. Lemme figure out if I can hack Outlook 2003 to do that now

k, that was easy (when you've spent hours and hours in Outlook's deepest menus).

Steps to replicate this, ish, in Outlook 2003 (or 2000, or XP):

1. View > Arrange By > Custom
2. In Customize View: Messages dialog, select Group By
3. In Group By dialog, deselect "Automatically group according to arrangement"
4. Group Items by: Conversation, Ascending, select Show Field in View

Ta-da, done!

Okay, so it's not exactly the most obvious, but that's fairly easy compared to some of the things people ask of me in training classes

If you use the above method and add
sort by conversation index ascending you will get 1 line for each subject and the number of email in each.

Or you could just use the default arrange by - conversation:)
