wmp11: Oddball search

First of I have to state this: I know it's a beta.

Just today i was seeing just how good the search was in wmp11. i came up with some interesting and downright bizarre results

I typed in 1:10, thinking maybe you could search by Length
-It came back with 3 hits, which i can't for the life of me figure out why they came back

I typed in "1:10"
-No matches

I glanced through the help, saw you can make advanced queries

I typed in Length:1:10
-it returned every single mp3 I have

I typed in length:"1:10"
-It gave me every single mp3 i have

OK, so I figure I'll test it to conform my suspicion when it doesn't understand a term, it simply returns everything

I typed in length:banana
-it gave me every result


So i go back to the help and read it carefully. Seems you can only search by length in seconds. Yes, that got a "what the hell?" from me too

I typed in length:62
-It worked!

It seems search in wmp11 still needs some work. i think it's cool they added a similar advanced syntax like wds has, and you can use logical operators (AND, OR, NOT) but it's buggy and doesn't always work how you would expect it to

Artrage 2

So the new artrage 2 was just released. I'm torn on if it's a good thing ro not. It's good it has gotten far faster, but now there' a free and pa versions, and teh free one has a bunch of clutter on screen that nags you to buy the full version if you click on it.

Decide for yourself

I'm getting very sick of firefox

What exactly is the deal with firefox? I got the new 1.5 version, expecting it to be better. It's supposed to be the next great thing right?
 
Ugh. It crashes about once every two days for me. It's such a massive ram hog that it completely bogs down my entire system
 
Like just a  little while ago. This isn't even heavy browsing, just checking a few forums
 
It's completely nuts! 200,000k + for a web browser?
 
That's it, no more firefox for me. It's opera for me from now on

Opera is now completly FREE!!!!!

With the new 8.5 release of opera the makers of Opera dropped a huge bombshell. Opera is now free. No more banners, no more registering, you can now get opera for free.

Now there's no reason not to give it a try!




On a side note: I've given up on the blogger addin for word. It's just much too limted. Qumana is a far better product
