Comment ideas for the OS

Hello, I was wondering if there is the right place to start a discussion and write down some ideas for the OS itself such as looks, transitions, etc. where people could vote or give thumbs up as a "most requested" feature or something like that.
From now on thanks very much :)

I'm thinking writing a new TechNet Wiki article over here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/default.aspx is a far more suitable place, it also makes it a lot easier for others to contribute and to refine your opinion.
Kind regards,

  • Give me some ideas for the project.

    Hi,folks
    I am not familiar with programming in web services. Now i have a project related to web services need to finish. I want to someone give me some ideas for the project. how can i implement the access control services. is there anyone can give me some related links for me to learn.
    Project Title: Implementing an access control service
    Project Description:
    Web services are emerging as a new approach to system construction and will make a major impact on the engineering of future business systems. They will allow a move from enterprise to inter-enterprise computing. However, with inter-enterprise computing, there are major problems with providing access to shared data, given that enterprises will not wish to share all data with partners.
    This project aims to investigate this problem by developing a prototype of an access control service that will help decide whether or not data access should be permitted. In essence, companies will outsource their access control to this service and so will not need to maintain their own access control lists for a potentially rapidly changing set of users.
    Suggested Platform: Windows or Linux
    Suggested Languages & Tools: Java

    Well, the approach I've come accross is a central server which is typically accessed indirectly from the web servers (e.g. through SOAP protocol or RMI).
    The remote server sends a user id and a password (or more likely a digest of the password), and receives a session token, basically just a random string of characters which is checked with the central server each time a secure transaction is attempted. The token will be stored in a session object, or perhaps directly in a cookie or in the URLs.
    Active session tokens are stored on the central server for comparison. This means the password doesn't have to be retained in the server.
    It's possible for the session token to be transfered if the user switches from one site to another on the same authentication server.
    Sun distributes one of these beasties, by the way, so you could take a look at their product specs.

  • New Software Idea for the iPhone

    I have a good software idea for the iphone but I am not a programmer. I checked on the site and it doesn't exist yet. What's next? Who can help to get this project off the ground?

    Did you try here? http://developer.apple.com/

  • I have a few interesting and important ideas for the company Apple.

    Guys, I have a few interesting and important ideas for the company Apple. I'd like to see Apple have learned about these ideas. Where do I go?

    Apple does not accept unsolicited ideas - see http://www.apple.com/legal/intellectual-property/policies/ideas.html
    You can use the feedback system they have though - http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • Where can I send in an idea for the next iPhone (or anything) to Apple so that they will take it in consideration and hopefully use it?

    I came up with a really amazing and helpful idea for the next generation Apple products!

    You are welcome to try, but this is typical for the industry (look at MicroSoft's policy, for example) - it is just a lawsuit waiting to happen, so eveyone avoids it.  If you think your idea is that good, develop it yourself, then see how much it is worth.

  • How can I make comments Editable for the users?

    Good day,
    How to give edit rights for  the user to edit his comment?
    If anyone can point me to a tutorial on how to do this or even give me a few tips, would be greatly appreciated!.
    Thanks

    I think we need a bit more information. Most importantly:
    #1 Edit comments where?
    #2 What technologies are you using? (PHP, Cold Fusion, etc)
    #3 A link to actual site would be most helpful

  • Want to get published? I'm looking for ideas for The Online Learning Idea Book, Vol 2

    I edited The Online Learning Idea Book a few years ago and it has been an amazing success! I regularly get emails from readers telling me how much the ideas have helped them. I’m hoping you will submit ideas and help me find additional contributors for the new volume! You can see some of the ideas from the first volume here.
    Because the book has been so well received, Wiley has recently asked me to produce a new volume with new ideas. Why submit ideas? Here are three good reasons:
    Helping others in our field improve the quality of online instruction
    Gaining well‐deserved recognition for your solutions and insights and willingness to share those solutions and insights to help others (each selected idea will receive full attribution)
    You’ll receive a free copy of the book if your idea is selected.
    Want to know more? Go here to download the                      FAQs.
    I'd love to receive some ideas that show unique ways to use Connect but feel free to submit other ideas as well (the FAQs explain what I am looking for in detail).

  • How do I share an idea for the next great apple product?

    Imagine I-glasses.  Two outward facing screens and two inward facing screens.  Worn like glasses.  The world sees your eyes, or whatever else you might like.  You see enhanced vision on your screens.  Sourced from the two little cameras mounted in the outside corners of the glasses frames.
    Google Glasses failed because they didn't offer enough function.  These glasses should start by aiming at the visually challenged by doing so much more than optical lenses can do.  Sort of like the latest advances in hearing aids.  Very soon, everyone will want their own night vision and thermal imaging powers.
    I'd be surprised if you are not already working on this.  It will be huge.  Just toss me a bone if this happens to be a fresh idea.  So as to encourage folk like me who can't develop their own good ideas.
    Thanks.
    frankthethinker

    Thank you.  The legal position Apple is taking is clear and understandable.
    I am not sure if it is wise or not.
    But no matter.  I agree that this idea does not belong to me because I offered it unsolicited.  In fact, I want Apple to own it and exploit it to the fullest.
    I expect no compensation.  I chose to approach Apple because I believe they are best positioned to bring this idea into the world and to do it right.
    My reward will just have to be the knowledge that I made this gesture in the expectation that good might come of it for people who have a need for vision enhancement.  And that I-glasses would simply provide endless fun for the of us.
    Of course I understand that perhaps many people, in the inclusive sense, may be racing to be first to announce something that literally anyone might pick up, unsolicited as it were, from the Universal Mind.

  • [Suggestion]Ideas for the next MacMini

    Several suggestions for the next MacMini:
    1. AMD Fusion "Llano" 32nm. I think you could use this APU that AMD gonna launch very soon. Why? Because it's supposed to be very power efficient, it includes the GPU inside the silicon die, it supports DX11/OGL4/OpenCL 1.1 and it can reduce the production costs a lot.
    2. Add a Bluray option. I personally would like to see a Mini with a Bluray instead of using a DVD. Why? Because I own a lot of Bluray movies like Avatar, Matrix, Inception, etc... and I want to use the Mini as HTPC. On the other hand, my backups are becoming bigger and bigger so I would need to burn 5 DVDs which is very tedious... Please, add an option to buy the Mini with an internal Bluray optical drive!
    3. Please, put the connectors on the front. Currently they're on the back side which is not really practical... If you don't want to ruin the aesthetics just place a cover which could open when you touch it, showing the connectors.
    4. USB 3.0, please... ( and keep the Firewire connector too because it's still useful! ).
    5. Please, add an option to get a SSD instead of the traditional HDD. I personally would keep the HDD option because the SSD can make the product much more expensive.
    6. Price. I think the Mini should be always in range 399-599$, specially because we're in the middle of an economical crisis and you should moderate its price.
    Thanks.

    It would be nice to have a "single" USB and SD card slot on the

    just turn it around.
    Yes! I like the clean front -- one of the main selling features.
