Forget Web 2.0... It's now Desktop 2.0!
Yes! That is right-- forget the old Web 2.0 concept, and move onto the newer Desktop 2.0 concept. Only recently has there been chatter about it, at the CES, sometimes it's been talked about on forums, but now O'Reilly (the publishing group that created the Web 2.0 concept) is now getting abuzz with the new Desktop 2.0 concept. My ideas for this are:
Glossy Icons on all New software
Better software support for all Systems (ie Linux, BSD, Mac)
Let everything WORK together. As in, when you have systems that are different, let the software connect and work seemlessly.
More technical Support. This also means more jobs, AND DON'T SEND THEM TO CHINA OR INDIA. Keep them here, let the economy grow.
Wider range of community help. Give power to the people. Tech Support isn't always the best way. Sometimes, if you let people talk with ACTUAL USERS of the software, you could get better ideas for material.
CLOSE OPEN SOURCE. Let all software cost money! Open Source is bad, it doesn't create jobs, plus since it's a hobby, not everyone will want to contribute there great knowledge to it.
That's basically all my concepts, but also to add more stuff to my list, then doesn't work with the rant-based type.... Let there be a better Help section! I recently ran into Sony Vegas Pro 8.0a, and I have been using it/fooling around with it for a while.... And out of all of the different softwares I have ever used... it had the BEST KB (Knowledge Base) out of any programs that I have used.
Also, there should be an image included in every new software created that describes ALL of the Menus, the buttons, and what they all CAN do. It would save me a lot of time when trying to figure something out, and also help others that are "newbs" use the software easier.
Although it had started out as a guidelines for Desktop 2.0, it seems to have turned into a rant. Wish it would be more friendly... but I guess if you want to get a point across, you need to rant. :D

SNOWBALL FIGHTS ARE AWESOME!
They are the best.... Since the huge storm up here in the north, my friends and I had decided to do a full blown out snowball fight.... IT WAS AWESOME! We stayed outside playing for like 2 hours, and we couldn't stop having fun, laughing, and doing much of anything else except find ways to throw the snowballs harder, stronger, faster, and better. :D But, it was so cold, we all got sick. *sniff* But it was great, having a bunch of tea and hot chocolate, while we were sick, plus we were able to chat over our computers, plus have VOIP chats, with the new headsets we all got. YAY, it was so fun!
YouTube Video Requests
I'm now taking video requests for making YouTube videos, and it should anything about Windows would be good. Check my YouTube channel for stuff on it. This includes: Software/Hardware/Open Source, anything that you need, I'll try to answer it.
Team Necromancer
Yes, I have been plotting this for a while now, but I have just got my hands on a new PS3, and also the PSP.... It will probably get into the community with a small beta preview during January, or February, and expect to see a bunch of cool stuff from us. Currently 2 people are on the team, (I) and a friend of mine, who has the PS3 for me to access, but doesn't have a PSP. So we both get to "exchange" things from each other. But, the team is planning on making these: PSP Backgrounds, PSP Themes, Internet Radio Stations, Podcast Directory for the PSP, a small program for making Backgrounds FOR the PSP, a small portal that is a lot like iFind, but loads faster, and is crammed with more crud. :) That's what you can expect soon. 'till then, have fun with everything else!
