ZeroPoint Search uses adware. I gathered that from the descriptions. Went to
their website. Shows it had two shareware awards. Clicked on each one and
did a search. ZeroPoint Search could not be found. So exactly how long ago
did it win these awards?

Apparently, your search skills are lacking...

The other site (www.softsland.com) has a broken search tool...

BULLSHIT!

more about bullshit. . . dunno where this originated. . .

Do you keep falling asleep in meetings and seminars? What about those
long and boring conference calls? Here's a way to change all of that.

1. Before (or during) your next meeting, seminar, or conference call,
prepare yourself by drawing a square. I find that 5" x 5" is a good size.

Divide the card into columns-five across and five down. That will give
you 25 one-inch blocks.

2. Write one of the following words/phrases in each block:

* synergy

* strategic fit

* core competencies

* best practice

* bottom line

* revisit

* expeditious

* to tell you the truth (or "the truth is")

* 24/7

* out of the loop

* benchmark

* value-added

* proactive

* win-win

* think outside the box

* fast track

* result-driven

* empower (or empowerment)

* knowledge base

* at the end of the day

* touch base

* mindset

* client focus(ed)

* paradigm

* game plan

* leverage

3. Check off the appropriate block when you hear one of those words/phrases.

4. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally
stand up and shout "BULLSHIT!"

TESTIMONIALS from satisfied "Bullshit Bingo" players:

-- "I had been in the meeting for only five minutes when I won.." - Adam
W., Atlanta

-- "My attention span at meetings has improved dramatically." - David
T., Orlando

-- "What a gas! Meetings will never be the same for me after my first
win." - Dan J., New York City

-- "The atmosphere was tense in the last process meeting as 14 of us
waited for the fifth box." - Ben G., Denver

-- "The speaker was stunned as eight of us screamed 'BULLSHIT!'for the
third time in two hours. The Bullshit Bingo Championship will be played
at the next meeting." - Rod H.

In my youth, we played "turkey bingo" in a very large lecture class.
You mapped out 25 names of sycophants and there was always a phrase of
the day which you would *had* to work into a question (or answer) to
declare yourself the winner. BTW, to ask or answer, you had to
stand.

Now if I were somehow shipwrecked on a desert island with 25 of these
folks, ZeroPoint partners, I'd gladly stand up and say the phrase of
the day. It's above.

Thanks for that. I couldn't envision someone actually calling out the
"magic word" in a company meeting. Nice to know there *is* a way to play
the game in real life.

folks, ZeroPoint partners, I'd gladly stand up and say the phrase of
the day. It's above.
