    Dodger, I hope you have spoken to John or one of the other administrators. He may have something to say about it.

    I am already working on a vb napster type application to trade code napster style. I was thinking of calling it codenet. For all languages from c++ to web technologies. I am work on the a little bit every couple of days. I am pretty sure that someone else thought of it. For every idea that a human has 10 others have already thought of. It's the implementation that counts.

    I think geoff has written a program to do this. But there is nothing stopping from doing one yourself. Go for it.

    Geoff has made a browser specific to this forum.
    Code sharing has been discussed many times in this forum, and I remember at least two threads in which an initiative was taken to build an app.

    if customers had a VB Napster, they could just locate the solution
    they need. and then what would Solution Developers be good for??

    I don't know if a VB Napster is a good idea

    Well just becuase you have the source code doesnt mean you would know what to do with it! It actually not that bad of an idea.

    Hey All,

    It was basically to be able to write the posts offline, save them to disk, and then post them all at once when connected.

    But I suppose its dumb...

    What can I make that people want and that doesn't take a genius to make?

    I suppose I could try making a file swapping app, should I attempt it?

    Although I don't really know every feature of napster, as I have never downloaded it, I could probably do the basics.

    bye-bye

    Thanks.

    DONT!!!!!!

    This will mean people do not see the banners, and then they would make less... and we desperatly need more server bandwidth.

    Anyway, its so, easy, I did one to test a new control I had so I could post from SMS

    Woof! Do you have to be that horible?

    I had actually asked john if he wanted to place an ad rotation system in the software.

    I never wanted to take advertising revenue from the site, and I considered the fact at the very beginning.

    But nevermind, I'm not doing it anymore...
