As a note to this as well, the second would count as relevant in my eyes. Although the relevance may not have been as high as other posts, anything computer based would still count. (Try using any of Freeola services without using a computer ;) )
Think of it as a marking system.
Marks:
Effort: */10
Relevance: */10

Definitely - as I play with the RC more and more I'll write up any features and cool stuff I come across.
I'm quite excited about HomeGroup (seamless media networking and sharing), as well as seeing how the 'Device Stage' concept will give the PC and it's peripherals the same feeling of integration that, say, iTunes has with iPod.

Well done, it was a good topic. I'm interested in how Windows 7 turns out once it's in full release mode.
Just noticed that I won this one.. thanks guys! Always appreciated.
Hopefully someone get's some use out of the post :)

I know, just really trying to point out the same, that it's not just this criteria.

Whilst we keep relevancy as a factor, effort will often need to play the biggest part.
It's a balance of relevance and effort. Get them both right and you're on for winning every week.
For the score, I didn't award this one :) But that's not to say I don't agree upon the winner. Also, I'm not saying you didn't put enough effort in either - only phuzzy put in an awful lot more.

It's a balance of relevance and effort. Get them both right and you're on for winning every week.
For the score, I didn't award this one :) But that's not to say I don't agree upon the winner. Also, I'm not saying you didn't put enough effort in either - only phuzzy put in an awful lot more.
