JJammer D.'s Profile

Where do bullies, complainers and gossip queens go after high school? www.votefortheworst.com that's where. Want to feel like crap? Read that website. They couldn't say a positive thing if they had the greatest sex the night before. How do people live to be so disgustingly nasty about others when they don't have the balls to say it to these people's faces? They have to say it behind a screen name. I don't understand how you can fake hating a show that you need in order to exist.

The good thing is that their votes can't help who they want to win. Though they do share how to power vote during American Idol and I'm sure those that love the show have been smart enough to use those things against VFTW. And that makes me laugh on the inside like a revenge seeker with just enough time on my hands. :D

Have an idea that you think will out do what already exist...like Facebook?

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/196017994/diaspora-the-personally-controlled-do-it-all-distr Creators of Diaspora thought of a place where they could get what they had gotten from Facebook, but without the privacy issues.

Ever wonder where did the trade school go?

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/OurGoods/trade-school-0 According to the creators of Our Goods: Anyone can offer to teach a class. Students sign up for classes by agreeing to meet the teacher's barter needs. We ran Trade School for 35 days and we want to open again!

Kickstarter is place where many hands can make the load light. Share a creative project in art, film, food, writing, music, community, technology...and more. You throw out your idea in written format as well as video and set a goal. If your goal is not matched by the due date (you set) then no money exchanges hands between you and your many backers.

This allows people to test the waters for what people are interested in. It also keeps you from having to front money should you only reach part of your goal and then those that back you expect a $20,000 to blossom from $5,000 backing.

It is an innovative site that could jumpstart many (or kickstart har har) into areas of life they can't get to by conventional means (maybe this will be conventional one day...).

Check it out. You might have an idea or you might find an idea you'd be willing to support. Either way this is a place for the creative to flourish and show that the rich and the mighty don't hold all the cards when the unknowns get together to propel one of their own to the stars.

It's a fun and charitable website all wrapped into one. It'll tell you where you're ranked int he world based on how much you make. You might not feel rich, but it'll make you feel somewhat rich and after it inflates your head by tell you you're rich it request that you donate money in the most unpushy way possible.

For me it said the following:
$8 could buy you 15 organic apples OR 25 fruit trees for farmers in Honduras to grow and sell fruit at their local market.

$30 could buy you an ER DVD Boxset OR a First Aid kit for a village in Haiti.

$73 could buy you a new mobile phone OR a new mobile health clinic to care for AIDS orphans in Uganda.

$2400 could buy you a second generation High Definition TV OR schooling for an entire generation of school children in an Angolan village.

To give is better than to receive...especially if you're a child looking for a chance to just live.

Have you seen Iron Man 2? Want to know where he got those awesome water bottles from? Well in the movie he puts something else in them, but they're still water bottles. Well it came from this site. Direct link: http://www.gentsupplyco.com/KOR-One-BPA-Free-Hydration-Vessel

Gent Supply Co. has awesome things other than the water bottle. There's cool things like Star Wars flash drives, Lego Flash Drives, Lego speakers for Ipods, indestructible wallets...sweet way to hold up your jackets (dart coat hooks), a way to find NPR anywhere in the country (NPR Map), neato bottles that'll hold TSA approved amount of liquids....and much more....

Much of this stuff you can get anywhere else, the difference is that here they care about style. The water bottle Tony Stark drank out of was not just a simple water bottle, it was specifically designed for better flow. The flash drives are not just boring little drives, they are designed to be appealing to the eyes as well as functional. I'm pretty sure if you go to this website you'll find something you'll like.

I hope that they'll add more stuff. I got a few things last year and it seems like it's the same amount about 6 months later. I went back to get the water bottle cause mine broke on a cruise and I was very upset. It was the last day and it fell from a high spot and broke. I almost cried. I was so mad. I asked them if they could replace it, but I never heard back. I didn't have the bottle very long. Seeing Iron Man 2 made me want it again, so I bought it again and some other stuff.

One of the awesome things about the website is that there is no sales tax AND shipping is free most of the time if you buy over $100.

Check it out and tell 'em I sent you. =D

I have strong opinions. I'm sure others have strong opinions. What makes this website awesome is that it's a place where all strong opinions can come together and share or explode in debate, sarcasm and icky emotional bias. "Average" people can add their opinions and views, but there are also "experts" on subjects like PeTA on killer whales. There are even debates between "experts". It's really interesting. Check it out if you have a strong opinion.

You want a time waster, well here you go. This site pits the most random pairs against one another and you decide which is most awesomest. Like: Cheese vs Internet. Sarah Palin vs Air. Goat vs DNA. Deer vs William Ayers. It's quick, fun and totally addicting. Beware, you just might waste an hour on what's the awesomest before you realize it and then when you do...you'll just keep on picking.

You can add some awesome (or inadequatest) things and they'll decide to use them or not.

Top Ten Awesomest:
1 Internet
2 Life
3 Oxygen
4 Music
5 A Nap
6 Lasers

So what's Awesomest to you: Wikipedia or the Karate Kid (movie)?

I love the way it looks. They are tweaking it a bit and that's good, it'll even look better later.

I love that there is a timeline so that you can see how often your view films in a certain month or a year. It also accumulates your ratings and averages them out for you in a graph as well as overall. This could indicate what kind of moviegoer you are. Are you negative or positive about the films you view. I'm more positive because I think my average is 7.6 (out of a 10 star maximum).

When you put a film in your timeline you can write a mini review. You can also write a more extensive review, if you'd like. Mini reviews show up under the poster of the film and then towards the bottom are the more extensive reviews.

The search is awesome because you type in a few letters and it'll populate what matches real time. It is a relatively new site, so there are some films that are not yet put into the system. You'll be able to put the information in via the IMDB page for the film.

I am still putting films in I've seen. I haven't caught up with where I am at right now. I like seeing how many I've seen. It's crazy and tires me out just seeing how much I've seen at the theater and through netflix.

I love IMDB because I get to rate films and see what others think on the films I like. I think that they have a lot of cool info like what the actors are in the process of doing, quotes, weird trivia. I do LOVE the site because I LOVE movies, but there are some issues like the set up needs to be streamlined. The front page of the films just looks like a mess. A designer needs to come in and design them to be easier. I use Yahoo movies to look at films sometimes and their information (not as extensive) is easy to read. Who the director is, the actors, when it was made...how long the film is. Simple to spot. Also the forum is archaic. It needs a better look.

They have all the right ingredients, they just don't have the look down. When they get that down they'll be far too awesome to defeat...ever. Almost like Google.

Right now there are few people that post there. The comments (aside from mine because that would be bias) are funny. Reading about how others have to deal with stupid drivers and their asinine ways is fun, especially if they post a witty comment. It may never be popular because of the negative way it can be used, but that doesn't mean you can't just vent a little steam at the idiot that went so slow that you had to stop at the light, only moments later speeding up so they could get through the light. Think of it as a minor cure for road rage. Instead of giving them the finger (or coupled with) you could just carpong them and feel a little better that maybe one day they'll read what you said about them.

The complicated thing is remembering or finding a way to get the license plate down that is safe and not making you an idiot someone needs to carpong.

I use to listen to music from this site a lot. I found a lot of bands I love now from that site. I think it is a good site. I think I'm going to have to make it a regular place I visit. I forgot how much I actually like it. I got lost in it a few times because I kept finding bands I liked.

I like how it allows you to pick songs you like and put them in a playlist that you can play in its own separate window. I think it's a great place to promote music that isn't as cluttered as a myspace page might be. I like simple pages.

I'm glad for PureVolume.com. I'm just a listener, but my ears are very happy.

I use to use it often. I haven't been back in a while. I still have a page. I think the forums are not that great and they should be fixed to be more reader friendly. I think that the clutter that makes up many people's pages should be fixed. I don't think that MORE IS MORE. I think that less is really more. Myspace is one of those places that'll have to fail big time before it realizes that it's no longer as great as it use to be.

Even mentioning it now I don't even want to go and check my page. It doesn't make me want to go back. As a matter of fact it makes me think boring.

Facebook is no better.

I could get lost in YouTube for hours on end. I think that TV stations and the like should allow clips on YouTube. Like So You Think You Can Dance? I always want to see dances that I love again and since that show cannot put out a great DVD with the ones I like I think the next best thing is to have YouTube have them up. They could even put commercials in there...short ones. 8 seconds.

What I really love are the people I follow who give commentary on what they have heard int he news, movie reviews, people who have skits, or those that sing really good with covers and their own stuff. Youtube has nasty commenters, but I don't read the comments often nor do I make comments that often. I vote. I think that it's great to see videos run freely like this.

YouTube is one of those sites that is a double edge sword. People just have to know how to handle it and it can be a great tool. And just like the internet it has dark spots that many should just avoid all together. Don't let those dark spots suck you in like political spite or angry speech. Stick to the real and the happy. Don't anchor yourself with cynical thinking that could so take you in a direction that you don't want to go in.

Oh and I love finding clips of old cartoons I haven't seen in a really long time. Love that.

This site should be a site that parents and those that work with teenagers should be using often. They should bookmark it. They can put in a phrase they've heard their children say and see what it is that they are exactly stating. There really should no longer be an unhip adult. Well they may not be cool, but they'll be hip enough to understand what they youngins are stating.

As the other review stated this site is hilarious. You can go to random word and laugh. This is the addicting site for readers of information as is YouTube for those that like movies and videos. It's fun and you can even join and pick definitions that should be on the site or not be on the site. You can help the site. That is always awesome. You can also vote on what are the better definition for that word.

The front page is great because it has words of the day listed there. It's another great site that has a great long history of existence ahead of it.

I really like Wikipedia. People have a problem with it because it can be changed or altered by others. But they have to have links to information that backs up their additions. If they do not they will have time to find them or it'll be removed. This is far better than any encyclopedia book. Why? Because this information can be altered for corrections or updated on the spot. It gives information to the people and helps them understand certain things better.

I think that it's one of the best sites to ever be created because it furthers people's understanding of certain things. I like that it has to be written without bias. It's a fantastic site for information on many different topics.

I did not want to join it. I did join it because one night CNN was having a battle with Ashton Kutcher and they were trying to get to a million followers. I decided to follow CNN first, but Ashton won...and then I followed him. I found other people on there that I like that are famous and I have been amused ever since.

I have found average people that are entertaining telling me about what their dad says or how their business life is with stupid meetings and inept coworkers. I also found it useful for my current.com articles (but since current.com is a crap site...that no longer matters). I like reading what John Mayer has to say because he's funny at times. I get the CNN stuff and learn things about what's going on quickly. I also do a contest with a NYC Midnight on blogging a story in 140 characters using a specific word. It's great.

Twitter is only as fun as you want it to be. It is not necessary to twitter something. You don't have to twitter at all, you can read what others are saying and be entertained by that. Plus seeing what is on trending topics is great. That is a great gauge of what people think is important at the moment.

Lots of things are fun that seem mundane to others. TV watching would be one of those things for those that like to go outside and DO stuff. Don't like Twitter, you don't have to, but there is a reason why it's popular.

I love DeviantArt.com. I think it's a fantastic site. I can see so much great work from so many different people. I like to see the daily deviations. Though I would like to see a day where they don't have something that looks so pretentious like nudity. There's only so many cool things one can do with nudity. There are other people that have great work that goes ignored for things that look like they captured as someone got out of the shower. To me everything is not art. Stating that it is makes those that work hard to create art meaningless.

I would like there to be more content on writing and promoting writing in some form or another. There's a lot for photography, drawing, painting and the like. But for writers it's only Writer's Workshop. I enjoyed it when I was in the writing workshop but those that handled that were not very good with keeping the peace. They would side with those that were doing the workshop because they were putting time out of their "busy" schedule to do it. Well so was I. They were belittling to my time and how much effort I put into something and did not appreciate my submissions and therefore I had to quit. I don't need someone to praise me, but I certainly don't need snide remarks left under the guise of "helping".

I look at this site and I'm amazed at the talent that is there that doesn't get utilized by someone. I wish I had money because I would so use some of these people for great projects I have in mind. This is a treasure trove of greatness that those who need talent. DeviantArt has so much talent.

I also enjoy their news and contest. I think that they try really hard to give to those that made their site. That is something Current.com and Student.com should learn---or they'll just become dead and a grave site for what could have been.

This site is one of the BEST sites for people who are students to go to because of what it CAN offer.

But what it does offer is why the rating is so low. Student.com has great looking forums, easy to post, personal owner, great profile look and it's all easy to set up. There are great things like the daily questions and the daily cards as well as the point system. Fun things go on on this site. If I had kids I so wouldn't mind if they posted there.

AGAIN there's a but.....there are certain people, mainly mods, who have ruined that site. The owner allows them to ruin it and then questions why the numbers of users has dropped so drastically. The members shouldn't have so much say over who gets to leave the site. Why? Because they are vindictive and that is not a way to run a site.

I have tried to help the owner fix it up so that people will come to it again. I offered my help. He refused. He didn't think it was too bad to take my idea about the daily cards, though. I was not given credit for that and I do not appreciate it. I also do not appreciate being called a pedophile by him and certain people on that site. I decided to return after that because there were a lot of people I like that go there and that was the best way to stay in contact, but he allowed people to be harassing with a lie.

This site has such potential it's disgusting that he would toss it all away to please the cynical few who have nothing but contempt for where it could go.

If you have ever been to a ghost town then you will feel right at home by visiting the forums on this site. Also beware of how cliched the relationship forum, sex forum and the GLB form will be. Do not go into the religion forum you have never met intolerance of ideas until you see what they say in there. The debate forum is childish prattling and discussion couldn't be further from what they ever would want to do. Stay away from the BS forum because it might seem that they are into silly fun things but they are elitist and will mock you for not being like them. Plus a problem mod still moderates that forum and his screen name starts with a "W". He flirts with girls that are nowhere near his age and it's creepy.

Again this site could ROCK, but they don't care for it to. Great looking front page. Great banners and colors that change due to season or holiday. It's looking better than it use to, but the attitude stinks and until that's fixed it'll never be as great as it certainly could be.

I have been with last.fm for 4 years. I have over 200,000 scrobbles. I love how it has my own hit list. Tells me what bands I listened to the most that week. What song I listened to the most that week. Then there is an overall list of my listens. They have radio that caters to me. My Sprint Hero has an app and I can listen to it when I don't have a radio or my Ipod. This is one of those sites that is just perfect.

I like that you can set up groups and it'll run group lists. I watched this site while American Idol was going on this year and it pretty much helped guess who was going to go home based on how many listens they were getting. Kris and Adam were the top two the entire season.

This is a great site for those that love music.

I have not used the forums. I think that I looked at them one time and I'm not into many forums because they don't look comfortable for reading and posting.
